Natural hazards
The Jeyd Mountain range separates the Aldena Desert from the rest of the country. The desert, which is rich with oil, is very treacherous to cross, and due to the Jeyd mountain range, land travel between Aldena and the rest of the nation is highly dangerous. The only way to reach the southern part of the nation (The adenian desert and other provinces) is to travel by plane or through the Balrahn pass.


Power Sources
Jeyden runs primarily on Oil power (aprox: 75%). The rest of the country's power is based on Nuclear, Wind, Geothermal, and Hydroelectric plants.

History
Jeyden is still a new nation. Approximately fifty-two years ago, the Jeyd people lead a coup de etat against the Adenian government, a despotic government who used to reign over the region. The government is now trying to get off of its feet, using much of the old military as their own, and heavily funding social welfare to keep the democratic way in motion within the country.
