Pontesi

The Dynastic Commonwealth of Pontesi and Gran Tadraki is a nation located in the north-western peninsular of the continent of Majatra. The Commonwealth is a unification of the former Pontesian Dynastic Commonwealth with the states of Tadraki and Endlid. Its people are diverse in background and religion, although most of the population are Christian, but other religions are also welcome.

Ethnicity
The Commowealth people are wonderfully diverse. The Pontesian, at the northern tip of Majatra, and across the staits from Artania, has considerable Majatran and Artanian populations. However, the largest group by far are the Pontesians, who are based around an ethnicity native to the area, but have also absorbed large populations of the Majatran and Artanian tribes who settled in what is now Pontesi. Other ethnic groups, most notably recent Seleyan immigrants form another group within Pontesi.


 * Pontesians: 55%
 * Majatrans: 22%
 * Artanians: 12%
 * Mixed: 5%
 * Other (largely Seleyan): 6%

A large proportion of the Artanians within Pontesi are the Duntrekkers, locally known as Makaaners. The Makaaners have retained their traditional Dundorfian way of life and culture, and thus are noticable outsiders within Pontesi, and the general Artanian community. A few Artanians and Majatrans are believed to have put themselves down as Pontesians in the 2161 census, very slightly complicating what is meant by the term Artanian.

As for Gran Tadraki, population size is estimated about 41 million people. The real number is still unknown, but the population mostly contain of the Pontesians, like their homeland, are divided into either Terran Catholics or Progressive Darwinists with a small Jewish minority.

Religion
The religions of the Commonwealth are varied. However various types of the Christian faith have an overal majority within Pontesi. Islam is predominant amongst Majatrans.


 * Christian: 73%
 * Muslim: 14%
 * Jewish/Buddhist/Hindu/Other: 8%
 * None/No Answer: 5%

Culture

 * National Sport: Cricket
 * National Animal: Red-tailed Hawk
 * The national motto: Fax mentis incedium gloriae (The passion of glory is the torch of the mind)
