Tlathassa
Tlathassa is one of the Thuvaki states of Corundy. The capital of the Republic of Tlathassa is Laxiapoion. It borders the Aurician Over-Province of Upper Zamir and the Republic of Johaulia. It lies along the north coast of Corundy, facing towards the islands of the Republic of Ithatia. Important cities of Tlathassa include the capital, Laxiapoion, Zulcai, Stremna, Daphnat, Lioska, and Ermos. The island of Dadaë is part of Tlathassa.
Tlathassa is of the Thuvaki culture of Corundy—these are the cities and people of northern Corundy who are descended from ancient Ithatian heritage.
The capital of Tlathassa is Laxiapoion known in ancient times as the seat of the oracle of the god Heliops. The name Laxiapoion comes from the Ithatian Language and means the 'place where he will give utterance.'
Tlathassa is a member of the League of Corundy. It must balance its interests carefully with its need for independence from its powerful, imperial neighbor, Aurice and the benefits that Aurice provides by means of trade with it and within the Aurician Empire, especially on the Thybdis River. Aurice historically guaranteed Tlathassa's independence[1], but has often used its great power to influence the weaker states of Corundy, such as Tlathassa, to engage foreign policy that is favorable to Aurice.
The sea is central to the commerce and industry of Tlathassa. Laxiapoion is a major manufacturing site for commmercial ships, fishing ships, and in the 28th century, titancrafted skybarges. Thlathassa is a minor trading partner with Aurice and Tlathassan sea merchants ply the waters of the Thybdis River into the interior of western Asdauria, to ports throughout the Pallathantic Sea and abroad as far as the Dominion of Merethaia.
