Pontesi

The Dynastic Pontesian Empire is a nation located in the north-western peninsular of the continent of Majatra. The Empire 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. Its capital is Lerna, Xanduley.

Ethnicity
The Empire 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 Empire 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%

Education
Education is compulsory in Pontesi, but home schooling is permitted. There is a free public education system alongside private schools. The few famous private schools are St.Hewlett Academy, Fort Roger Military Academy, and the International School of Lerna.
