Sudestia is known for its rapidly growing population, bustling cities and its thriving economy.

However, It faces challenges, such as disease (particularly Sudusitis, a very contagious disease with a 10.1% mortality rate), low GDP per capita and high crime.

Pre-Patawan Empire
Aboriginal Peoples have existed in Australia for over 45000 years.

Patawan Empire
The Patawan peoples came to Sudestia in the 1st or 2nd century, first settling the area around Portavia. They expanded, and killed many languages in the process. The original Aboriginal People were eventually relegated to the east part of the nation. The Patawans created canals, and made the dry areas in the inland wetter. They eventually created an empire, spreading from Marina to Platô to Avinion. The last empress, named Pérna Ninhopa Mako Taniro, or usually just Pérna Mako, eventually died without a living heir at the age of 59, after reigning 41 years. The country then fell into a civil war, and collapsed in 1528. The Portuguese, knowing about the area, decided to colonise it.
