===Western Volante===
:In Western Volante, the collective area is known as the LVA; or the Lesser Volante Area. This area is smaller compared to its neighbor, the Greater Volante Area.

===Sycracia===
:Sycracia is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy under the Gerodathian Commonwealth of Nations. It neighbors the kingdom of Elvinia and the country Velten. The head of state in Sycracia is PM Eric Marshall. Its monarch is King Bryan Cervantes.
:Sycracia is the only parliamentary constitutional monarchy left in Volante. Others are across the globe, and even then, they only exist in the continent Talasia.
:In trading, Sycracia has become one of the strongest World Trade leaders, with a heavy abundance of exports. However, in its history of trade, there have been corruptions. For instance, during the 1978 Sandalwood Scandal with former president Alexandra Dreyfuss, Sycracia was running very low in sandalwood to trade with the Talasian kingdom Herrtolina. In desperation, President Dreyfuss sent a company to hack down sandalwood trees in Elvinia. Then-king Tero Turunen then sent workers to create a gigantic 30-foot wall of concrete between them. The wall was later taken down twenty years later.
