Sahale Federation

In the Southern hemisphere of Remnant is the Sahale Federation, a small but reasonably powerful state formed close to Menagerie. It's closest ally is Mistral.

The Eastern territory of the Federation is mostly a desert plateau like real-world Tibet. Desolate dry seasons are only made worse by frozen winters, but nature does not discriminate; early peoples have sometimes found Grimm frozen solid on a winter’s morning.

The Southwestern Federation is mostly wildlands, consisting of lush tropical rainforests and some, more habitable, desert. Aside from some port towns held by the Federation, most of the Southern Region has virtually no modern human habitation aside from an Order Base. Throughout the South, ruins of the Ibaalin Empire litter the forest and desert. Flagg Institute and the Sahale Federation offer vast bounties for the recovery of any artifacts from the ruins.

Northwestern Sahale consists of swamplands and temperate forest and mountain, but unlike the Southern region, its only visitors are the Markby-Morris Dust Conglomerate who mine the mountains for Dust. But even so, MMD uses automated drones to avoid Grimm. As such, the only humans who ever travel to the West are sport hunters, Order warriors looking to raid an MMD shipment, and Predators sent to counteract them.

History
The most notable Historical event in Federation history is the Ibaalin-Sahale war. To summarize, 80 years ago, the Ibaalin Empire attempted an invasion of the Federation's territory for a multitude of reasons that are still debated by historians to this day. However, the imperial army was unable to finish their campaign before winter and froze over. The Federation military took advantage of this and within months forced the Ibaalins back into their capitol. Rather than destroy them, the Federation instead assimilated imperial territory into itself. However, the collateral damage to the imperial cities resulted in massive grimm attacks that eventually forced the Federation to evacuate Imperial civilians and abandon the newly claimed territories.

Currently, the Federation Military is engaged in a campaign to reclaim and repair the Imperial cities they claimed during the Ibaalin-Sahale war.
