| + | The Pelargir Company was established around 1733 as a trading company with the Seven Baan. Based in [[Eluvatar]], they took advantage of their time period. It was a period of general chaos in the midst of exploration, expansionism, and opening of borders. This chaos allowed the company to grow rapidly and spread to trade all around Cefnor. They used their profits to further expand by buying lands and building trading outposts to increase their control and revenues. | ||

The colony was split into twenty-one smaller provinces, most of which was under direct control of the Pelargir Company. Even the majority of occupational forces were mercenaries contracted to the company. In 1780, during the Second Eluvataran War of Non-Succession, a majority of the government's troops were away supporting the war. This was when the [[The Bustos Family|Bustos Family]] took advantage of the situation and pulled off a coup in Valorium.

| + | Without a strong economy, the Allied States would not be where it is today. As a capitalist, free market, business owners can run their businesses as they see fit. Due to strong competition and desire to make money, very few business survive using discriminatory practices or creating a hostile workplace. Many business people know it is the person's skills that matter, not nationality, race, or gender. However there are still some small businesses that are extremely discriminatory and still turn profit, however their growth is very limited as many customers find such businesses repugnant and do not want to support them. | ||

| + | As the goal of any military is to defend the nation, it is the stance of the Allied States to defend its people and their allies. It is not the stance of the Allied States to go to war without provocation. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The high regard of personal civil rights has extended into a certain patriotic fervor amongst the people to protect their rights from outside aggression. They also view their lives as morally correct and any trampling of civilian rights to live as they please as evil. Along with the right to bear arms, there is an unofficial militia amongst the populace, majority of members being ex-military. In case of invasion, they can support Bustian troops and form resistance cells in enemy occupied territory. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Allied States Military is actually a conglomerate of mercenaries. It comprises of the Allied States Army, Allied States Navy, Allied States Air Force, Allied States Marines and Allied States Stragetic Force. These "mercenaries" are home grown Bustian citizens with a desire to protect their country. Some become career soldiers and some just serve for a tour of six years (includes the "Hades Twelve"). In an exclusive military contract with Conglomerate of Arms Manufacturing, or CAM, the Bustian military is receives military hardware and software at discounted prices. | ||

| + | In addition the military offers many job training programs that are taught to soldiers for their service in the military. These skills are useful and highly regarded outside of the military in many different areas of the job market. | ||

| + | Civil freedoms are very highly regarded. This has led many laws to have either been abolished or to never come into effect. Drugs laws, prostitution laws, weapon laws, gambling laws, traffic laws, even business and environmental regulations are nonexistent. The decriminalization has allowed for time, money, and manpower to focus on crimes that violates those civil freedoms. The allowance of the citizen's right to bear arms have empowered the people to defend their property and lives from criminals. A criminal is more likely to be shot and killed by his/her potential victim(s) than the police. | ||

| + | Conviction of a non-capital crime warrants physical punishment and/or labor in various industries within prisons for a certain period of time. Non-capital crimes include, but are not limited to, theft, destruction or defacing of property, resisting arrest, invasion of privacy, and harassment. | ||
