Cerato Confed.

cerato confederacy (ceratophyllum)

Nestled between the rest of the cold nations, the Confederacy once held dominion over the entire southern continent. Their population was tiny compared to the others, but the might of Cerato mages is nothing to be sneezed at, and just one can dismember an army with a sneeze. Despite this, due to economic hardship and nonchalance, the Confederacy has lost much of its land and influence over the years... and it's honestly surprising it lasted to join the Competition.
