Passas is a country located on Southwestern Keltia, on a peninsula stretching into the Captive Sea. It is directly bordered by the Alexandrian colony of Santa Gertrudis, and shares the Captive Sea with seven other nations including Tokidoki, New Brittania, Col, Kataria, Craitland, the Holzer Empire, and Mexihco.

Passas is officially a Democratic Republic, however, the citizens are largely responsible for most of the nation's decisions. The government consists of two members, President RedDonnet and 1st Minister Matthew Davis. Recently, a new temporary constitution was introduced to better meet the needs of the people. It is also a member of the Micro Illuminati, an organization of close allies including Tokidoki, Craitland, Beaugium, and Novataina, who engage in trade, assist eachother in the event of war, and recognize dual citizenship as means to help each nation grow.

Passas has a recreational culture, and does not currently claim any real world territory. However, many citizens hope to one day claim real world land. There has been no mention of an attempted secession, but many still hope to claim their own land in the near future.

Geography

Passas is located in Southeastern Keltia, east of the Laceran Mountain Range which runs through the middle of the continent. The equator is not far off, running across the south Captive Sea, which means that hot weather and storms are commonplace throughout the nation. Due to the location of the mountains, storms from the sea become trapped over Passas, resulting in a very humid, tropical climate.

Tansportation

Most visitors to Passas at one of three airports. The main airport is in Newvillage, which is also the point of entry for visitros arriving by ship. The other airports are located in Northman and Zidado West.

There are also two main train lines in Passas. The main one is the Trans-National Railroad, which goes through the middle of the nation, from Carol Stream to Zidado West. The other is the Coastal Railroad, which goes from Newvillage, up to Kingsland, then back down to South City.


Famous Attractions

Founders Square, Northman - Founder's Square is located in the heart of Northman, and is one of the most popular destinations for visitors and residents alike. Originally, when Northman was first established, it acted as the town center, literally. Now, it has the highest concentration of people per day in the nation. People come here to explore the historical buildings and shops around the square, and to just mingle.

Kingsland Lighthouse - The Kingsland lighthouse was the first permanent building on the South coast of Passas. It was built to help guide travelers through the Captive Sea, even in the roughest weather. Next to it is the oldest road in the nation, which was used to help immigrants reach Kingsland, the first settlement in Passas. The lighthouse is still in use today, as both a lighthouse and as the Museum of Passasian History.
