Edofasia (Edofasian: Éidobhasia), formally the Confederacy of Edofasia (Edofasian: Cónaidhm na hÉidobhasia) is a Terran nation located in the Heartlands of North Terra. It shares land borders with Novmir to the north, Alayka to the west, and Sudardes and Bollonich to the south. Its western and southern borders are shaped by the peaks of the steep mountains that line them. Northern Edofasia is coated in dense pine forests, separated from the grasslands in the south by the Great Lakes.
Edofasia is the origin of the Faith of A'ru. The First Hold Temple in the west is where the Horator resides and Ordinators are trained. Until 1916 the Horator was the only central authority in the nation. More recently, Edofasia was a Candanadian colony and crown dominion. Between the two Edofasian Crises (1916-1967), the country was split down the middle into its eastern and western halves, with the west being the independent Edofasian state and the east remaining under Candanadian control, the population of the latter being subjected to a high degree of ethnic and cultural discrimination during the occupation leading to considerable civil strife. Edofasia was reunited in 1967 following the resolution of the Tara Insurgencies and the Second Edofasian Crisis and the handover of East Edofasia.
The capital of Edofasia is Scarlao, a very traditional town in the west. Thüle is Edofasia's largest city and also the former capital of East Edofasia, which has kept its Candanadian name. It is home to a diverse population which includes Kaltachians, including Akareans, Kanadiaans, Oseanians, and Cenaesians. It is the primary port of trade for Edofasia and the base for the Edofasian National Navy Eastern Fleet. Much of the east coast of Edofasia is dotted with Candanadian-style towns established during the occupation. Cold Harbour and Tara are also important cities to Edofasian culture and the Edofasian economy.
Edofasia is one of the founding members of the Terran Commonwealth and remains a leading power in the TC today. Edofasia is represented in the World Congress.
Edofasia has a large agriculture sector, particularly in the south. (needs expanding)

Government & Politics
The Government of Edofasia was formed in 1916. Before then numerous Clans controlled tracts of shared land. Facing complete colonization. These clans switched from independent resistance and turned instead to the idea of unity, agreeing to form a Confederation to better defend their collective homeland.
The Edofasian Unity Party holds elections every 4 years to elect representatives for the National Tribunal. This Tribunal is headed by a Chairman/Chairwoman who holds executive powers.
Beyond the central government, the Labour Unions of Edofasia hold considerable power. These unions form Spokes Councils in their regions to discuss local problems. These problems are then brought to the local Representative of the EUP . If the concerns are not addressed to a satisfactory level, unions will call for collective action such as strikes and protests. Unions often have fully commissioned militias that coexist with and sometimes stand in for or in resistance against national police.
The Temple, while having considerable social power in Edofasia, has no official governing ability. However its Ordinators often join the military should they choose to leave the Order after the age of 18.
Culture
Religion
Main article: Faith of A'ru
The religion of Edofasia is the Faith of A'ru. The faiths of many other Terran nations are based on or have evolved from the Faith of A'ru, particularly those of Mortasia and Sudardes. Cenaesia worships the same Pantheon but with a different head deity.
The Faith of A'ru is led by the Horator, except when the individual due to become the next Horator is too young or not yet determined, in which cases the High Priest of Scarlao holds the powers instead. Until 1916, the only central authority in Edofasia was that of the Horator. As such, many led the nation in times of war or strife.
The Ordinators are the masked warriors of the Faith of A'ru. Historically these would have been individuals with Horator candidacy in their youth, but had failed the trials; In contemporary practice of the Faith they are an enlisted religious militia. Orators are tasked with guarding the Faith and its temples, in service to the Horator. The Ordinators were amongst the first to violently resist the colonisation of Edofasia, forming the backbone of many resistance groups and eventually the ENA itself. The distinctive physical appearance of the Ordinators owes to their face masks which are modelled after the First Horator's face.
