Balkathian Empire

The Balkathian Empire has a long and storied history spanning centuries. Beginning as a small coastal fishing town it slowly grew into a city through trade with most major powers on Kalaidus. Eventually the people of Balkath became a kingdom in their own right and after expanding south into the Argusi continent and eventually during the conquering of Kemet overseas it was branded and Empire. By the year 5366 it was one of the most feared and powerful empires to ever exist.
As happens with most empires however, Balkaths power would eventually buckle under its own weight. The Empire would become dictatorial and corrupt. Supressing its people through propaganda and social manipulation until it would eventually resemble the USSR of our world. Its last hail mary is considered to be its participation in the space race against Azrus, where the two nations competed to be the first to reach the moon of itia.
Having spent most of its remaining wealth on the space program it was unable to defend itself during the mindflayer incursion.
