Alkon-Aylathiya is a relatively small extremist theocracy, located in the city of Uspayador, Eos. Alkon-Aylathiya holds dominance over most of its region, being a relatively formidable local power. Across all of its territory, Alkon-Aylathiya is home to over five billion people, who primarily originate from Aeternalist backgrounds. The people of Alkon-Aylathiya are led by a theocratic government, centered around Aeternalism and all of its sects. Being a theocracy, Alkon-Aylathiya is a nation of extremes, merging politics and government in a relatively unforgiving system of rule.
While not directly bordering any nation, Alkon-Aylathiya is located closely to Paradgim, Eos and its Nisrine Collective. In the past, these nations directly bordered one another, but like cell division, they have pulled apart. Due to its Zythyn population, Alkon-Aylathiya's has a somewhat close relationship to the Commonwealth of Aggregate Aylathiya despite the great distance. Most Alkonians consider the dominant power of Eos, the Greater Martial Consilium, a looming threat to their sovereignty and, in many ways, they are absolutely correct.
Alkon-Aylathiya was first founded after the Commonwealth's Eclipse. Following the devastating conflict, caravans of Zythyns fled from the Golomian Confederation into empty space. What rose from the ashes were groups of nomadic and divided clans, which looked to Aeternalism for their leading principles. It was apparent however, that these nomads would quickly perish if they did not settle or unite. But centuries after their migration, many of the largest clans came together and daringly settled on Eosphoros, a Hedonist World which was perceived as untouchable holy land by many. Following the founding of the Dominion of Astraeus and conquest of Eosphoros, millions of Zynthyns settled in Uspayador.
Over many centuries, all nomads united and created the foundation for Alkon-Aylathiya. It took centuries more for true infrastructure to be established. In 9101 CE, Alkon-Aylathiya was founded as a nation which stood for Aeternalism, Thaumaturgy, and the well-being of all Aeternalists. It even found and subdued the Resonant Divinity, a major Angelic Artifact which allowed Alkon-Aylathiya to project its power. In a slow reversal taking place of centuries, the nation began serving the Resonant Divinity rather than the reverse. The artifact, only later discovered to be conscious, how rules as the eternal monarch of this nation.
After a ceasefire forced by the hands of Vurilia Jutopati, Alkon-Aylathiya's influence grew, covering a large swath of land by the War of the Ancients. During the WoTA, Alkon-Aylathiya backed the Quintet Payotari Association, and kept doing so until the end of the war. In the days preceding modern times, Aylathiya's Ignominy shook Alkon-Aylathiya to its core. Upon seeing the return of the Angelic Pantheon, its Aeternalist government warmly welcomed them. Many refer to the Angelic Awakening as Alkon-Aylathiya's most important event, as the nation has rose in power since.
