Pomara

Pomara, officially The People's Republic of Pomara, is a moderately sized country along the eastern coast of Avalonia. The majority of the population resides on or near the coast, while vast regions of the inland regions of the country are densely forested. The country is divided into 28 political districts, with the capital in Catamoto.

Pomara has a fairly monocultural society, with descendants of the Argrana y Griegro colonists comprising the majority of the countries demographic. Spanish is the only official language, although more than 11% of the country's population speaks various dialects of.

The lands that now comprise Pomara were once inhabited by many native peoples but mainly comprised of the Yucatecs. The majority of the native populations were forced to exile or died off when explorers from Agrana y Griegro arrived in **date needed**. The colony of Pomara was officially established as an organized territory in **date needed** and became a plentiful source of **goods needed** for Artemia. Independence was secured after a violent war in **dates needed** and the Pomarian People's State was established. With international backing, a military coup in 1849 established the current government under the Covenant of Governance. Since then, a stable but corrupt parliamentary system has been maintained, despite a constant communist guerilla threat from the backcountry.

Pomara is considered the Carita capital of Anterra. It is estimated that over 75% of the world's Carita is either produced or smuggled through the nation. The government has turned a blind eye to most smugglers, despite international pressure.
