The Thalassic Confederation was an island nation in the Southern Sea. It was replaced as the government of Thalassica by the United Thalassic Provinces in the aftermath of the Thalassic Civil War.
History
The Thalassic Confederation was founded with the ratification of its constitution on March 13th, 2022.
Geography
The Confederation was composed of several islands with a wide variation in size. Its capital was Fishbone Island in central South Coral Sea with some duties later shared by the Confederal City, now the City of Union.
Government and politics
Governing power in the Confederation was divided between the Parent (head of state), the Council of Stability, the Intrainsular Court, and the Confederal Parliament, which is commonly referred to as the Fishbone Parliament after Fishbone Island. Originally disregarded as an insignificant institution, the Intrainsular Court asserted its power by reviewing decisions by the Office of the Parent in the case Po'one v. Parent.
Parliamentary politics were dominated by debates over regionalism and the powers of the central Confederal government. The regions of the Confederation have varying forms of government, from the "pseudo-anarchist" society of Greenstone (Mukelenoa: Vavilona) to the absolute monarchy of Arborharbor, the largest and most populous island outside of the Northern Territories.
Economy
The Thalassic Confederation relied heavily on trade and fishing, and maintains special terracotta mining privileges with the Frontier. In a controversial effort to expand the economy and raise revenue, Mother Samara created state-owned enterprises dedicated to logging, mining, and shipbuilding.
Demographics
The population of the Confederation is predominantly of the Mukelena or the closely related Vavilona. The latter speak a dialect of Mukelena but are considered a distinct ethnic group for their plant-bending and unique culture. Codport, whose people the Codders are closely related to the Water Tribe, also joined the Confederation. To the south are the Qameshrens, a distinct ethnic group which also populated the islands to the south of the Confederation.
Culture
The culture of the Confederation was dominated by Mukelena traditions. The primary religion is the dualistic Mukelena folk religion sometimes called the Cult of Ta and Hinana. The Cult was not centrally organized during the Confederal period, though most religious officials were members of the earl Union of Priests and Astrologers.
