The United DiMeo Provinces (UDP) is composed of the capital province of Perdomo and the largely agrarian provinces of Ettan and Aleshchnya. Until recently, the provinces were united as a democratic republic. However, an armed revolt in Aleshchnya has plunged the UDP into a civil war, shrouding the nation in a fog of conflict. Rebel-controlled zones are governed by a wartime military junta known as the Command Bloc, which has declared a global war of independence against the UDP and "counter-revolutionaries, colonial powers, and oppressors of human liberties."

The Command Bloc has proclaimed the occupied and disputed territories as "Free Aleshchnya," asserting control through its paramilitary forces. The inability of the DiMean military to suppress the rebellion has brought the UDP to the brink of political collapse. Despite foreign humanitarian and military aid, the situation continues to deteriorate, and the rebel movement gains ground. While Free Aleshchnya seeks national recognition, its campaign of "global perpetual revolution" has spilled far beyond the borders of the DiMeo Provinces. This expansion has led international organizations and foreign governments to designate Free Aleshchnya as a violent non-state actor
