Democratia was a country to the west of Wo and far west of Ostentia. It was previously at war with Autocratia for possession of the island on which the two countries existed. The war ended early in the morning of August 17th, 2008, after the Autocratian army had managed to blockade the capital city Barbour and effectively starved the city into submission. Before this, Democratia's economy had collapsed and the country was supported by foreign aid. Democratia occupied mountainous areas that were, prior to the war, noted for several stunning landmarks.
