History
Leasath as a country is considered to have begun on June 8th, 1908, when the lands of Leasath were brought together under the monarchy of John Phillip. The foreign king had proclaimed himself as ruler when he was merely twenty one years old, having come from an extremely wealthy family he had brought claimed this land for his own. The Kingdom of Leasath lasted nearly fifty years, until December 2nd, 1956, when Phillip was overthrown by a popular revolution and killed. The Leasathi military took his place, and had General Basil Qaussim as supreme leader of the new Arab Jamahiriya of Leasath. Following Quassim's death in 1980, the next highest ranking officer General Abdul Kadar took his place and is now the current ruler of Leasath.

Government
The government of Leasath is a totalitarian military dictatorship led by Generalissimo Abdul Kadar of the Leasathi Republican Guard. His military dictatorship is run with the help of other high ranking officers and many civilians who are given important positions in the Leasathi government.
Leasath's government holds good relations with Maldorians, Greston, and Dun Eideann.
Military
The Leasathi armed forces are a conscript force, with the populace choosing which branch of the military they wish to serve in. The only exception is the Leasathi Republican Guard, which is a professional volunteer force.
Republican Guard
Though equipped similarly to the Leasathi Army, the Republican Guard are the elite force of Leasath numbering about 1.8 million strong. Visually they are hard to distinguish from Army units but the Guard fights harder, are generally more fanatical, and are far better trained than their Army counterparts.
Leasathi Army
The mass conscript forces of the Leasathi ground troops come from the Leasathi Army. Conscripts must serve two years in the military. They are taught to march in parades, and how to fire and clean their weapons. They receive minimal survival training and other important battlefield knowledge, they are usually used as reinforcements for the Guard and as occupying troops.
Leasathi Air Force
The Leasathi Air Force is a generally large branch of the military which enjoys a lot of funding from the government. Pilots receive good combat training but are mostly lacking in survival training, but are taught how to evade enemy forces should they be downed.
Leasathi Navy
The naval forces of the military of Leasath are controlled by the Leasathi Navy. Historically the Navy once maintained a strong blue-water fleet, but lost almost all of its warships in the bloody war against Erusea. However the Navy has rebuilt to some degree, now operating a significant brown-water fleet which can deny the seas around Leasath with assistance from the Air Force.
Erusean military presence
The Neo-Erusean Republican Air Force maintains a military base taken from the Leasathi government during the Leasath-Erusean War. Al-Jawali Air Foce Base once belonged to the Leasathi Air Force, but know remains under Erusean occupation. The installation is enormous, with four runways capable of operating large aircraft, and home to more than 6,000 personnel, more than 2,000 of which are armed guards. The Erusean Air Force maintains sixty J-22 Orao attack planes, seventy-five X-02 Wyvern fighter planes, fifty UV-49 Albatross attack helicopters, and fifteen Tu-160 strategic bombers stationed at the base. In addition to the airfields, in the base territory there is a moderate sized harbor which can be used for shipping, used by the Neo-Erusean Republican Navy as a base.
