Dara-Lumonde

Dara-Lumonde was a union of Dustbelt countries formed as another Haven power to oppose the power of Uldarash, which was the dominant nation on the continent before its formation. It had a large active population and was made up of a number of the member states of Aetheria, Kutaiyara, Dande, Mithrim, Rexhelm, Nebula and Nullaria.
== History ==
Dara-Lumonde was founded following the purchase of Rexhold by Salem. This prompted talks of forming a union to assist the already close Dustbelt nations in their development. The nations that originally partook in this union were Dande, Paragonite Chevkri, and Rexhold, with Kutaiyara being a protectorate who would join soon after. Following the collapse of Uldarash, 2 more regions joined the union, being the heavily populated but decentralised Neu Misahr and the restored Diarchy of Nul'lari. After some more time, Nebula, Defir and Solmia joined the union as well.
== Government ==
According to the Constitution of Dara-Lumonde, Firoas are leaders of the states within the union and have the same power within the government of Dara-Lumonde, they vote in polls and discuss topics with other council members to decide where the nation goes diplomatically. They also choose a Dara-Cutan who co-leads their spot in the council with them. The Dawiji makes the final say in these matters of discussion, but in polls has the same vote as all the other Firoas. They can lead their own country how they like since the countries internal affairs are still determined internally. If the country they lead is a democracy their position the Firoa is tied to their leading position in the government of their government. 
The Dawiji holds the same power as a Firoa, but represents the nation as the political figurehead. The Dawiji will be able to represent the nation in diplomatic and foreign matters. The Dawiji can be replaced if there is a two-thirds majority in government to do so. An heir needs to be decided before Dawiji can be replaced. The Dawiji can pick from the entire country to do so. This makes Dara-Lumonde an elected monarchy. This successor can play an important role in Daran politics if chosen pre-emptively. 
== Demographics ==
