||
| + | The endonym '''Larrea''' comes from the ancient '''Thalassi''' word for the Forsetti peninsula, ''Lartsuaarreit'', meaning "southern land". Over the centuries the name became more compact and influenced by outside languages, resulting in the later name ''Larrus'' and ''Larreanium'' , eventually becoming ''Larrea''. The name '''Larrea''' became an unoffical name that referred to the Forsetti peninsula, specifically used by members of the Thalassi religion. |

The state is distinguished by its profound religiosity, which has both provided solace during times of turmoil and spurred on great achievements. As an integral part of the peninsula, Alecton-Gallante shares the profound maritime heritage that characterizes its neighboring states.

Now the most dominant of the states in space travel due to their religious motivation, they have a strong place in the union and have massive representation in both the union senate and social events like the Forsetti Cup and the Larrean Premier League, even though they always manage to bottle it in the final. |

However, this impressive elevation contrasts with the overall flatness that characterizes much of the peninsula. The northern reaches are covered in lush jungles and thriving mangrove forests, an ecological richness that gives way to cultivated farmlands and expansive plains as one journeys southward. Within the sprawling territory, a population of 7.2 million calls Alecton-Gallante home, converging in various urban centers that embody the state's vitality. |

New Forsetia is distinct from other cities in the union for being a special economic zone, which gives corporations in the city more power and freedom to expand upon their business.

Geography
Republic of Alecton-Gallante
The most religious of all the states, the Republic of Alecton-Gallante has a storied and troubled history, filled with wars, regime changes and devastating losses. The state is distinguished by its profound religiosity, which has both provided solace during times of turmoil and spurred on great achievements. As an integral part of the peninsula, Alecton-Gallante shares the profound maritime heritage that characterizes its neighboring states. Proficiency in naval exploration and fishing is deeply ingrained within its people, a testament to their enduring connection with the surrounding waters. Bolstered by their passionate belief in a storied and sometimes mythical past, the citizens take immense pride in their cultural roots.
Remarkably, Alecton-Gallante has ascended to a position of prominence within the realm of space exploration. Fueled by their religious motivations, the republic has become a preeminent player in the domain of space travel, leveraging this newfound strength to wield considerable influence within the union. Their compelling drive has translated into a robust presence both within the union's legislative body and in various social gatherings, where their fervent ideals have fostered connections and shaped dialogues.
Geographically, the republic's terrain offers a diverse tapestry of landscapes. Within its borders stands the tallest peak found within the entire union. However, this impressive elevation contrasts with the overall flatness that characterizes much of the peninsula. The northern reaches are covered in lush jungles and thriving mangrove forests, an ecological richness that gives way to cultivated farmlands and expansive plains as one journeys southward. Within the sprawling territory, a population of 7.2 million calls Alecton-Gallante home, converging in various urban centers that embody the state's vitality.
At the heart of this spirited republic lies Ikacci, its bustling state capital. With a population numbering 2 million, Ikacci stands as a pivotal urban hub within the union. Its robust populace and vibrant infrastructure make it one of the largest and most dynamic cities within the region. The surrounding areas are also home to some of the largest industrial sectors of the union, with large plants producing high fidelity aerospace grade materials for the military and space industry.
Delras
Delras stands as the most prominent and influential among the states comprising the union. Its expansive population, totaling a robust 14.4 million residents, serves as a testament to its significance within the larger framework of the nation. Notably, Delras holds the distinction of housing the union's capital, New Forsetia, which mirrors its own substantial population with an impressive count of 4.3 million inhabitants. New Forsetia is distinct from other cities in the union for being a special economic zone, which gives corporations in the city more power and freedom to expand upon their business.

The state's long-running fishing industry sustains its prominence as a primary contributor to the broader economy. With bountiful access to marine resources, Delras has nurtured a legacy of maritime enterprise that not only feeds its own populace but extends its reach to provide vital sustenance to the entire nation.

As one of the union's financial pillars, Salred commands a significant voice within the union senate, shaping collective decisions and the destiny of the federation.
People's Republic of Areittia
Areittia is the sole socialist state within the union, marked by its distinctive independence, rivaled only by South Forsetti. Emerging as a crucible of transformation shortly after the tumultuous events of KP2.5, Areittia underwent a sweeping revolution that redrew its socio-political landscape. Characterized by a pronounced secular outlook, the state is considered the most atheistic among its counterparts.
