Karti

Karti is a semi-arid country on the western shores of the Ozmo Sea, forming part of the central-western littoral of the region.

Karti lies west of the Ozmo Sea. It shares land borders with Rakshaw to the northwest and Baksi to the south. Molbra lies immediately to the east across a narrow strait and shallow bays.

The country consists predominantly of sandy and steppe-like plateaus with low relief. Coastal areas feature broad, shallow shelves and small inlets; inland terrain is dry with sparse vegetation.

Meppo is the principal city shown, located in southern Karti, inland from the coast. It functions as a hub on the north–south overland corridor linking Rakshaw and Baksi.

Karti has direct access to the Ozmo Sea via its eastern littoral and through the narrow channel facing Molbra, a regional chokepoint for trade.

The Presidency rules through a centralized party apparatus, internal security, and patronage with industrial bosses. Public spaces are grand and stage-managed; surveillance is ubiquitous. Elections are choreographed; opposition exists mostly in exile or encrypted chats.

Coal from the southeast fields and cobalt from Almazar’s belt drive foreign currency earnings. Zorinsk is the export choke point; Meppo allocates revenues and contracts; Almazar shoulders the environmental and social burden.

Loyalist youth brigades and trade unions are visible in parades; independent unions are suppressed. Elite zones—waterfront villas, fenced dachas, and tower condos—sit apart from workers’ housing and informal hillsides.

Rail is the state’s backbone—mine to port to power plant. Roads are serviceable on showcase axes, potholed elsewhere. Utility reliability is best in Meppo’s core and elite precincts; rolling outages hit worker districts and settlements.
