Kasibaar is a coastal country located in south-western Avalonia. Kasibaar is a Federal, parliamentary, elective, constitutional monarchy in which the civilian administration and the royal houses are in a power sharing agreement with a population of over 35.6 million. The majority of Baari live urban lifestyles along major coastal urban centres with the largest settlement and capital being Purto d'Ga'alise in the Ga'alise province. Kasibaar encompasses 270,750 km2 however 88% of the population reside in 10% of the nation's total land area.

Modern-day Kasibaar is bordered to the north by Santa Magdalena, to the east by SiWallqanqa, to the south by (blank) and Pacharikcha and to the west by the Coral Sea. It’s geography is dominated by arid rocky deserts and highlands which cover over two thirds of the country’s total land area resulting in the population being largely concentrated along the wetter coastlines. Interior Kasibaar has low annual rainfall which contributed to the hot and dry conditions, despite this a few old Baari settlements continue to exist inland with the presence of a small number of nomadic peoples still seen in the present day. Humans have inhabited in the regions that are modern-day Kasibaar since the Paleolithic period.

Kasibaar ranks high on the Human Development Index, and has a developing upper middle income economy. The Baari economy is primarily composed of developing tertiary sectors as the number of skilled workers increases, however primary and secondary sectors such as mineral extraction and refinement, fossil fuel extraction and refinement and civilian manufacturing are still major contributors to the nation’s economy. The country has a rapidly growing ICT and Electronics sector which has generated competitive wages compared to other states in the region and is projected to become a dominant sector of the Baari economy.

Etymology
The name Kasibaar is derived from the T'aan Baari word "Kasi", which translates to "home" in Anglic, and "Baar" which is the ancient name of the Baar native people who have been present in the region for hundreds of years. As a result "Kasibaar" translates literally into "Home of the Baar" a name established several centuries ago, evidence of which was found in old journals and other written material found in the region, however was not an officially recognized term for the region until the 17th century when the unification of the Baar tribes occurred.

The name of the Baar people has unknown origins and research regarding the original etymology has been largely abandoned as the name seems to transcend beyond known surviving documentation and likely existed before written archives and documentation were widespread in the region.

Kasibaar Aristocratic Revolt (1957-1958)
1. Royal house under SiWi monarch enters argument against other houses after believing an election was rigged or biased after failing to win election and bring Kasibaar under the SiWi hegemony 2. Results in SiWi led house revolting spawning a civil war as troops loyal to the house assisted. 3. SiWi backed the SiWi monarch throughout the short conflict, however the SiWi loyal house was wiped out with the bloodline effectively terminated (Dead, imprisoned or exiled)

Rise of anti-monarchist sentiment and the collapse of the absolute monarchy (1959 - 1960)
1. Post war soldiers and citizens affected by the war began questioning the monarchy and their "enlightened" rule 2. Protests begin breaking out, however due to a fear of further civil conflict and total popular revolution royal houses agree to introduce a civilian administration and power sharing agreement which would allow citizens to influence higher government decisions through the civil administration.

Geography
Kasibaar is located along the Coral Sea in South-Western Avalonia encompassing a total land area of 270,750 km2. It is bounded by Santa Magdalena to the north, SiWallqanqa to the east, (blank) and Pacharikcha to the south and the Coral Sea to its west. Two of its boundaries are established by natural features (eastern highlands and western coast) and is borders with (blank) and Pacharikcha are formed by various treaties and local agreements, however, it’s border with Santa Magdalena is still actively disputed in several regions due to past cultural conflict. Kasibaar’s position along the Coral Sea allows direct access to strategic deepwater oil pockets and shipping routes.

Approximately two thirds of Kasibaar is extremely aridic which has resulted in its population centres being concentrated along its wetter western coastline where approximately 88% of the population reside in major urban centres. The two major urban centres found along the west coast are the cities of Purto d'Ga'alise in the province of Ga'alise and Purto d'Braga in the province of Braga which also house the two largest seaports and two largest airports in Kasibaar.

Kasibaar can be divided into approximately three major geographical zones, the western coast, the country’s centre and the country’s eastern frontier. The coast is generally steep, rocky and barren however, it is wet enough for the formation of mangroves and sparse dry woodlands with a limited number of sandy beaches, the coast on average sits 70 metres above sea level. Central Kasibaar is made up largely of rocky hot deserts with intermittent hills and little to no flora or fauna due to the harsh conditions, it sits on average 450 meters above sea level and is the second most populated region of Kasibaar. The eastern regions of Kasibaar transition rapidly from rocky deserts to arid highlands sitting approximately 900 meters above sea level and leads into Kasibaar’s eastern border with SiWallqanqa featuring steep rocky hills and a harsh rocky plateau. Kasibaar contains only a single major inland river and no major inland lakes.

The Kasibaari Royal Armed Forces (T’aan Baari: Raael Arma'ad Fu'urza d'Kiith'un d'Kasibaar) is composed of three main components, the Army (T’aan Baari: Fu'urza fusila'as d'lu'um), the Air Force (T’aan Baari: Fu'urza d'aiik) and the Navy (T’aan Baari: Fu'urza d'aqa) and is the primary acting military force of Kasibaar. The Kasibaari military is primarily tasked with the defense of Kasibaar and currently maintains no long term overseas deployments, partaking only in peacekeeping operations and joint training. Kasibaar has utilised various levels of conscription as a means to bolster its pool of reserve forces since the early 20th century, as of 2001 only one in six eligible citizens are required to serve in the active reserve for one year, however all citizens are expected to undergo basic training at the age of 18. It’s forces currently number 392,581 personnel across three main branches (reserve personnel included) and 42,800 secondary paramilitary and gendarmerie branches. The military is influential in Kasibaar economics and politics and is exempt from laws that apply in other sectors, granting it considerable power and independence within the state built on its prestige, however as of March 25th 2020 the civilian administration has introduced moves to cut back on the military’s political influence and potentially abolish conscription entirely. The Armed Forces are overseen by the Directory of Defense who are the high level administrative component of the Kasibaari Royal Armed Forces which itself utilises a shared power structure between high ranking military officials and representatives of the civil administration. It handles procurement, human resources, enlistment and other roles pertaining to the Armed Forces. The Directory of Defense maintains a permanent headquarters in Purto d'Ga'alise. As a result of the military’s high level of political influence and independence it is often regarded as part of Kasibaar’s “deep state”.
