Antigo

Antigo, officially the Socialist Republic of Antigo, often referred to by some nations as the Pretanic Faction State (of Antigo), Pretanic Antigo, Antigoan Pretany or Pretanic State of Antigo (abbreviated as PFS, PFS of Antigo or Antigo (PFS)), is a landlocked state in central Uletha. To its north and west, it is bordered by Pretany, with the heavily fortified Pretanic Demilitarised Zone separating the two states, while to its east and south it is bordered by Suria and Mazan respectively.

The Kingdom of Antigo is believed to have been formed in the 4th century BC, which ruled over what is currently Antigo and parts of Pretany and Mazan. After the Siege of Antigo, following conflicts of control over the trade routes in Antigo, Antigo is under Inaran rule, and later Pretanic rule from the 14th century onwards after the fall of Inara. In the 1930s, tensions between the Antigaon shires and the kingdom of Pretany escalated over the then king's controversial proposals to assimilate the Antigoans. Soon after the Antigoan Liberation War, Antigo was ruled by a provisional government under a monarchy which was shortly taken over by Antigoan socialists led by John Briarmack. Under his rule, Antigo became known as a totalitarian dictatorship, claiming to be a self-reliant state following the key principles of Cuppa. From the 1990s, Antigo faced a severe famine that resulted in the deaths of many citizens, and the population continues to suffer malnutrition. Antigo is a country with one of the highest number of military and paramilitary personnel, with a total of 9,495,000 active, reserve and paramilitary personnel. The nation is known to have possessed nuclear weapons and often gave empty threats to its neighbours.

The state is often infamous for its records of human rights abuses with 80% of the population living in abject poverty. Though repeatedly the state denies such allegations, it often promised the regime will change for the improvement of the people's lives. The capital of Antigo is Antigo City, while the largest is Kontroga.
