Geography
Principal ethnic groups in East Zimia and the Wallis Islands
Located in northern Corum, the kingdom has a total area of 1,033,380 square kilometres, of which some 42,048 square kilometres are water. It is divided into two geographically separate areas. The greater part extends in a north-easterly direction from the eastern shore of Lake Norton to the southern shore of the Straits of Sangun. While the coastal plain is heavily settled, much of the interior is dominated by large areas of wilderness, most notably the Depths of Anatina and the Erlo Sinders Regional Forest; both are noted for their biodiversity and have the status of protected nature reserves. The Wallis Islands are a small archipelago just off the north-eastern coast; heavily urbanised, the islands were the most densely-populated region of the Bassarid Empire.
On the far west of Corum, the kingdom also occupies a small coastal exclave surrounding the city of Corum Electric.
Time zones
East Zimia and the Wallis Islands follows Coordinated Micras Time. The country extends across three time zones:
- CMT+6: Corum Electric
- CMT+7: Bayen, East Zimia, Hhotia, Imabia, Milavanda and Thracia
- CMT+8: Wallis Islands
Demographics
East Zimia and the Wallis Islands has a population of 17,552,424, divided between five major ethnic groups, as well as the non-human Imab-Adred-Nas, who enjoy full rights of citizenship. The majority of East Zimians, together with the inhabitants of Corum Electric, are of Kralian ancestry, whereas the Wallis Islanders are descended from Haifan settlers. The Pallisican language is used by both groups. The regions of Milavanda and Thracia are dominated by the Thraci people, and Hhotia by the Hhoti. Bayen is populated by the Gamesman people, while Imabia is home to a million-and-a-half Imab-Adred-Nas.
Istvanistani is widely spoken as a common lingua franca, and in more recent years, Sangunese has risen in popularity as a second language.
Religion
Roughly two-thirds of the population adhere to the Pallisican religion. With the establishment of the kingdom, the Alliance of the Higher Paths has gained official favour, in an attempt to detach the new state from the excesses of the Stripping Path. Nidarosian Catholicism is also widely practiced.

Government and politics
East Zimia is formally a monarchy and retains many of the outward trappings of the defunct Kingdom of New Zimia. The current monarch is Queen Mina II, the only daughter of King Audon II of Nidaros and Grand Duchess Lystasia of Steerswick. Actual power appears to resides with the Eastern Courts Council, a cabinet-like body of regional officials and military commanders modelled on the Bassarid Council of Courts, which exercises executive and legislative authority over the kingdom. The council is presided over by a Supreme Arbiter, former SPUAG chief executive Erlo Wallis.
Regions
The kingdom originally was comprised of two former regions of Bassarid New Zimia, East Zimia proper (the former New Zimian Region of the East), and the Protectorate of the Wallis Islands. The latter includes the Erlo Sinders Regional Forest protected area.
The city of Corum Electric, together with the surrounding area, was occupied and incorporated within the kingdom as an autonomous region in 1721 AN. In 1724 AN, a further advance saw the annexation of southern Bayen, together with the former Thraci regions of Milavanda, Hhoti, Outer Imabia and the western half of Inner Thracistan.

Foreign relations
East Zimia and the Wallis Islands is a member of the Mondosphere, but maintains its own foreign policy. Unlike many other Mondosphere states, it currently remains outside of the Raspur Pact.
Military
The kingdom's military is known as the East Zimian and Wallisian War League, or EZWWL, and was initially formed using materiel inherited from the Wallis Island Division of the New Zimian War League. The conquest of Corum Electric in 1721 AN resulted in a further unexpected windfall for the fledgling EZWWL, with almost all of the equipment of the Corum Electric Division falling to the kingdom intact.
