Akhidia, officially the Kingdom of Akhidia (Akhidian: Akhiďą Físaqła), is a monarchy in central Cibola and a constituent member of the Mondosphere. Its capital and largest city is Mighi.
Etymology
The name Akhidia is commonly believed to derive from the legendary Ark of the Ahit, a mysterious artefact said to bestow fabulous riches upon whomever finds it. An alternative theory holds that the country is named for the mythical Knights of Ahd, a band of courageous warriors who swore an oath to defend the ancestors of the royal House of Zezo. There is little firm historical evidence for either explanation and a definitive answer is unlikely to be found.
History
Government and politics
Akhidia is a unitary monarchy. Since 1716 AN, the reigning monarch has been King Şahan I, victor of the East Akhidian Civil War. The monarch governs alongside an elected legislature known as the Ahidar.
Administrative divisions
Akhidia is subdivided into six provinces, which are named after their principle city. Five of these- Mighi, Gebea, Rtoa, Efreldu and Gebek- are situated on the Cibolan mainland, whereas the sixth comprises the isle of Gera. The provinces are administered by governors appointed by the monarch.
