The Ganzabar Federation is a large, industrious nation in the south. To the north of it is Azrune & the Nezzu Strait and to the east and south are various small scattered city-states. To the west lies the Lystrata Commonwealth.
The capital is Zaropolis, and its currency is the Hemmark, although the Floril is also heavily used in trade. The first language is Azbuka, with the Ganzabi Accent; Saufran is a widely spoken secondary language, particulaly in the west. Ganzabar's national animal is the Ruby Falcon, appearing both on the flag and many state emblems.
History
Ganzabar's origin stems from a violent uprising in the central industrial quarters of old Azrune during the late days of The Collapse. A number of large corporations formed a co-operative union named the Zabur Alliance. The conglomeration was the first breakaway from Azrune of its scale, and set the conditions for the First Nation's gradual decline.
The Zabur Alliance eventually came under the control of Magnus Valor, who reformed it into an authoritarian empire. After some hundred years of intense unrest, Valor's regime was overthrown by a coup that instated a democratic government. The movement's leader, Gan Fellowhall, was so inspirational to the new nation that they took his name in forming a new one: Gan's Zabur. In time, this became Ganzabar.

- Capital State Province
