There are four nations on Atys:
The Fyros Empire | |
The Matia Kingdom | |
The New Trykoth Federation | |
The Zoraï Theocracy |
The “Nation” concept must not be confused with Races or ecosystems : Nations have historically been built upon a racial basis, but any race may join any nation. Their territories may include several ecosystems though they mostly rely on “natural” borders.
By performing activities such as delivering goods to observation camps or giving occupation products to To New Horizons transporters, homins can earn Nation points [1]. With these points, they can buy, to the nation merchant, special goods that are not acvailable elsewhere:
Fighting an opponent player[2] to a nation or a faction is rewarded with PvP points. These points can be spent with selected merchants in capital cities.
Tribes may be allied, neutral or ennemies of a nation, even in it's own territory. This limits the nation's control over their territories, and makes the Geopolitics rather complex. Accomplishing missions with tribes may have, as a consequence, an effect on nation fame.
