Hadesia

Hadesia (Hadesian: Haidasous), officially the Aldenic Republic (Hadesian: Ayldainikous Rentouponikis) is a nation in Damalias. Before achieving independence in 1864, it was a part of the large Mastuk Empire which, in the present day, has been succeeded by Osmalia. Osmali and Hadesian territorial disputes are still commonplace to this day, and Hadesia claims a significant portion of Osmali territory, which is inhabited primarily by ethnic Aldenics, should be under their governance rather than that of Osmalia. Further, Hadesia was involved in both World War I and World War II, siding with the respective Allied Powers in both conflicts and fighting in the fronts nearest them, often on their own territory. However, the nation was never utterly defeated, as it has close ties to Arkasia, which sent a great deal of aid to it in both conflicts, not the least of which were large forces of troops and equipment. The two have had a rocky relationship since Hadesian independence, however they have always maintained strong war-time ties nonetheless, and many Hadesians and Arkasians intermarry.
