Capital: Platonia [B]Language[/B]: Modern Atlantean (aka Novatlantean – basically a mix of Italian and Esperanto with a fancy alphabet :P) is official; other languages are spoken by regional minorities and immigrant groups. [B]Denonym[/B]: Novatlantean [B]Government[/B]: Unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy; the current monarch is Queen Patrizia III [B]Area[/B]: 310 944 km2 [B]Population[/B]: 4,830,000 [B]Religion[/B]: [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_philosophy"]Gaianism[/URL] [B]Currency[/B]: Moni (Mn) [B]Internet domain[/B]: .na [B]Brief history[/B]: When Atlantis sunk millenia ago, its inhabitants had to flee to a nearby island, building a colony from the scratch on its Southeastern tip. While there weren't many survivors, their advanced scientific knowledge allowed Platonia to triumph, and soon it became one of the most important cities in the island. Other settlements were built on the South, with the Atlanteans intermarrying with the local populations, which were assimilated into the Atlantean culture. And so was the Novatlantean nation born.
Currently there is some classist dispute going on between the ruling elite, the Nobility of pure Atlantean blood, and the racially mixed majority. To prevent an imminent civil war due to the unrest among the working class, the political system was modified, with the new Constitution reducing the powers of the Queen and the Nobility in general, which in turn led to dissatisfaction among the most tradicionalist nobles. Recently, a referendum proposing a shift to the Republican system was only narrowly lost.
The Novatlantean citizens are nevertheless united in their common culture, which manifests in many ways, particularly music. The Novatlantean Song Contest (Novatlantida Kantfestival - NAKF), transmited through the national public broadcaster, NATV, is hugely popular throughout the whole country. Novatlantida hopes to debut in the international competition, ISC, on its 5th edition.
