Leazas

General Info
Founded 486 years prior to the start of the series, The Kingdom of Leazas is a prosperous nation on the eastern side of The Continent, with a population of roughly 50 million. It was founded in GI0534 in a rebellous split off from the Helman Republic.

Population: Approx. 50 million

Capital: The Castle of Leazas

Leader: Queen Lia Parapara Leazas

Leazas boasts the most fertile and luscious farmland on the entire continent, and it's also a relatively safe place to live in. Unlike Zeth, it does not border the Monster Realm, and unlike Helman, it's not near frozen wasteland with poverty-stricken citizens. It is without a doubt the safest kingdom on the continent, and the most rich in food and trade zones.

It's ruled by a Monarchy, and the child of the Monarch becomes the next leader, the current leader is Queen Lia Parapara Leazas after she forced her father to retire early. Her First Advisor and Chief of Maids, Maris Amaryllis manages the running of the government and the military.

It was founded in the year GI0534. Helman was embroiled in a civil war. The leader of the Rebellion, Gross Leazas, wanted to make his own country where the people would not be abused and oppressed in favor of military funding. Leaving his country behind, he conquered the land to the east and founded the independent nation of Leazas.

Living Conditions
Leazas enjoys a rich, lush land, strong agriculture, and trades with the Independent Districts to the south. Unlike Helman or Zeth, it is not adjacent to the monster realm, and enjoys peace.

Due to its hitstory and origin, it is frequently in conflict with Helman. Since it boasts the best land in The Continent, both Helman and Zeth are constantly eyeing on Leazas, which has led to several wars and battles with the countries. However, d efended by a mountain range that blocks Helman, and a fort blocking Zeth, the country is well suited for safety. Aside from the infrequent raids from the Helman Army, Leazas never sees any violent conflict within the country limit.

The Queen is a very competent, skilled and charismatic politician and Leazas has prospered under her rule, however she doesn't allow anyone to go against her wishes or speak negatively of her and executes anyone that opposes her. Many nobles and rich families dislike her and have even attempted a  coup d'etat in the past, but this is the only inner conflict Leazas has experienced.

Military
While Leazas can't match the budget of the Helman army, or the magical power of the Zeth militia, it makes up for it in having specific elite groups working in unison. Leazas still boasts a powerful army made possible by their rich land.

The military is divided into six corps, four of which are represented by a color. Each corps are headed by a General, and adjutant generals. The other two are the Royal Guards and the Mage corps.

The Black Corps
The Black Corps is the biggest unit in the Leazas army, used to overwhelm or distract the enemy with sheer numbers. This unit is lead by the experienced  General Barres Province, who is also the commander in chief of the entire Leazas military.

The Blue Corps
Members of the Blue Corps are trained in defensive strategy from an early age, no army has successfully penetrated their guard. This unit is lead by General Cordova Burn, who's nicknamed "The Blue Wall of Leazas".

The Red Corps
The Leazas Red Corps are a special unit of only 800 men, they are the strongest soldiers that Leazas has to offer, their color Red has become a symbol of fear to their enemies, and they have yet to lose a battle. This unit is lead by General Rick Addison, who is nicknamed "The Red Reaper of Leazas".

The White Corps
The White Corps don't often go to fight on the front lines, instead they use reconnaissance to gain military intelligence and formulate the best strategies for each of the corps. This unit is lead by the famous tactician General Ex Banquet.

The Mage Corps
The Mage Corps are a support unit of 100 mages. While very useful, they pale in comparison to Zeth mages. This unit is lead by Captain Asuka Cadmium.

The Royal Guard
Clad in Golden Armor, the Royal Guard are directly responsible for the defense of the Leazas Palace and the royal family. Composed of women of skill and beauty, the Royal Guard is led by Captain Leila Grecni.
