Remiferia

The Principality of Remiferia (レミフェリア) is a monarchical feudatory located in northwest Zemuria.

As the home of the Seiland Company, the worldwide renowned producer of medical equipment, Remiferia is the most advanced nation of Zemuria in terms of medical treatment. Its emblem is a reindeer.

History
In S.1199, it is announced that the prince of Remiferia has died from a disease. In reality his death was the result of poisoning. Soon after his death, the Rechter Arm regiment of jaeger corps Nidhoggr, attempts a bio-terrorist attack. Through a collaboration between Arios MacLaine, the Bracer Guild and the Remiferian Army, the regiment is destroyed. Later that year, Albert von Bartholomeus is enthroned as the new prince of Remiferia.

In August of S.1204, Prince Albert represented Remiferia at the West Zemuria Trade Conference in Crossbell.

The following month, Arios MacLaine and Cross Project destroyed the Faust battalion of Nidhoggr following the Remiferian government and Bracer Guild collaboration to wipe out jaegers. The Informal Tri-Lateral Summit between Crossbell, Remiferia and Liberl in Mishelam is interrupted by assaults of the Nidhoggr battalion Magen. They fail, however, and the squads Mund, Zunge and Zahn are destroyed by the reborn Rechter Arm battalion. That same day Count Jerome von Bartholomeus is arrested for his involvement in the assaults.

Geography
Remeferia is bordered to the east by North Ambria, to the southeast by Erebonia, to the south by Nord, to the southeast by Calvard and to the east by both Leman and Ored. Despite its harsh and cold climate, a result of its geographical position in the continent's north, Remiferia continues to attract tourists with its picturesque landscape of forests and lakes.

Governance
The head of the Bartholomeus family is the sovereign head of state. At the moment this is Albert von Bartholomeus.

Law
Under decree of the Princely Family it has been forbidden to develop medical technologies for the purpose of warfare in Remiferia. The decree was introduced centuries ago and is still uphold by the current monarch, Prince Albert.

This enactment has led to geopolitical stability in the Principality. This law, alongside the lack of natural resources such as septium and its poor infrastructure for international trade, makes Remiferia an unappealing territory for the expansionism of Erebonia. For that reason, the military presence within Remiferia is relatively understated.

Over the years, several factions have been established that do want to put Remiferia's medical technology to use for military purposes or to make illegal profits from these, such as the D∴G Cult or Nidhoggr jaeger corps.

Military
The official armed forces of Remiferia are responsible for its national defence. Compared to neighbouring nations, the army is relatively small due to the national policy to build and maintain relations with neighbouring nations. If these nations were to attack Remiferia, it would have no means to defend itself. Remiferia contributed a force some 80,000 strong to Operation: Mille Mirage.

Remiferia's military adopted an independently developed form of martial arts, which combines eastern forms of martial arts with Orbal arts.

International Relations
Remiferia is on good terms with most of the surrounding nations, including north Ambria who they had a strong relationship with. Remiferia also cooperates closely with Crossbell, helping them to establish the St. Ursula Medical College.

Economy
Remiferia's economy is seemingly centred around its vast knowledge and expertise in the science and medical fields. This is mostly thanks to the Seiland Company which ships medicines and equipment to all of Western Zemuria. The Jerome Company also makes medical technology and acts as a competitor to the Seiland company.

Infrastructure
In terms of Science and technology, Remiferia is the continent leader when it comes to medical technology. It has at least one Airport where air ships can travel to and from other countries. They have some of the continents foremost medical facilities and healthcare, and send their doctors out to other nations. Media and communication is handled by the Ardent Press.

Culture
Remiferian culture includes meeting and greeting people with coffee and biscuits. They also are known for ballet.
