Ta Seti (Re Babates: Ⲧⲁ Ⲥⲉⲧⲓ), officially the Amnic State of Ta Seti, is a country in North Tarephia. It is bordered by Andrar, TA011∈⊾ and Dematísna∈⊾ to the north, TA002∈⊾ to the west, TA020∈⊾ to the south and TA014∈⊾ to the southeast. With a mostly Amnic-ethnic population of TBD million in an area of 262 119 km² (101 205 sq mi), Ta Seti is divided into fourteen governorates. The nation's capital and largest city is Khenu, with around TBD million people in its metropolitan area.
Ta Seti is one of the world's oldest continuous major civilizations, beginning in the fifth millenium BCE. It was first unified as a state by Het in the seventh century BCE and reached its territorial height in the fourth century BCE when the emperor Serion the Great conquered most of North Tarephia. Ancient Ta Seti saw some of the earliest developments of writing, agriculture, urbanization, religion and central government. Ta Seti's long and rich cultural heritage is an integral part of its national identity, as numerous dynasties of Kherpus reign over the country for thousands of years, prevailing amidst various foreign incursions, and developing their culture through prominent architecture and structured language.
During the late dynastic period, Ta Seti was divided roughly in half between the Birrics, who lived mostly in the coastal areas, and the Amnics, who lived in the riversides throughout the Serion Desert. Following the collapse of the dynastic rule in 1923, they agreed to establish the Democratic Republic of Ar, which was governed through a parliamentary system dominated by the political parties representing them. Under the leadership of the Birrics, who tended to be friendly to the colonial powers in the area, the Republic opened local markets and followed a progressive policy.
This caused tensions with the ultraconservative wing of the Amnics, whose main support was in the interior of the nation, and eventually led to a civil war (1952-1958) that was won by the Amnics. The Community of Workers and Children of Amn (CWCA), the political party of the Amnics, seized control of Ta Seti and officially proclaimed the Amnic State in 1958, leading to an authoritarian regime that strictly controls religion, academics, military and social life of Tasetian to maintain their fascist one-party system over the country.

Government and politics
The Amnic State of Ta Seti is a one-party state governed by the Community of Workers and Children of Amn (CWCA), which considers itself as nationalist and socially conservative. The Perkharenput is the highest organ of state power and only branch of government per the principle of unified power. The CWCA leads state activities by holding two-thirds of the seats in the Perkharenput, and these party members are, in accordance with democratic centralism, responsible for implementing policies adopted by the Amnic Central Committee and the Perkharenput. The Perkharenput has unlimited state power bar the limitations it sets on itself; by controlling this organ, the CWCA has complete state power.
The Tasetian political system is considered authoritarian. There are no freely elected national leaders, political opposition is suppresed, all religious activity is controlled by the CWCA, dissent is not permitted, and civil rights are curtailed. Direct elections occur only at the local level, not the national level, with all the candidates controlled by the CWCA.
The nature of elections is highly constrained by the CWCA's monopoly on power in Ta Seti, censorship, and party control over elections. The CWCA tightly controls the nomination and election processes at every level of governance, and numerous academics have reported that the tiered, indirect electoral mechanism in the Perkharenput system ensures that deputies at the highest level face no semblance of electoral accountability to the citizens.
Government structure
The Khenti of Ta Seti is the head of government, serving as the ceremonial figurehead under the Perkharenput. As a one-party state, the general secretary of the CWCA holds ultimate power and authority over state and government. The Kherpu is the paramount leader of Ta Seti (above the Khenti), a title that has been historically used by the monarch of the numerous dynasties and was supressed under the Democratic Republic of Ar. The offices of Kherpu, general secretary of the CWCA and chairman of the Amnic Central Committee have been held by one individual since the formation of the Amnic State in 1958, granting the individual de jure and de facto power over the country. The title of Kherpu is currently used for its cultural relevance and as the symbol of national unity, rather than a monarchical role with life tenure, as the Amnic Central Committee is empowered to appoint the holder of these three roles each six years without any intervention of the current holder, which is disqualified for reelection in the role. The Amnic Central Committee consists of hereditary members, which are the patriarchs of the ethnically-Amnic tribes in each province, and appointed members, which previously held significant positions in the central government.
The Khenti is appointed for a three-year term (renewable once) by the Perkharenput, from a list of candidates previously approved by the Amnic Central Committee, and presides over the State Council. The State Council is constitutionally the highest administrative organ of the country and the executive organ of the Perkharenput, the highest ordgan of state power, composed of four Vice-Khentis and the heads of ministries and commissions, which are mostly of Amnic ethnicity (the only ethnic-Birrics permitted to serve in the council are the Minister for National Unity and the Minister for the Reconciliation of Tasetians and Militant Regulation). All decisions approved by the State Council and its members must be authorized by the Amnic Central Committee.
The CWCA
The Community of Workers and Children of Amn (CWCA) dominates the Tasetian political landscape. The political party was founded in 1923, following the collapse of the last monarchical dynasty in Ta Seti, as part of the compromise between the Amnics and Birrics (the major ethnic groups of Ta Seti) to established a parliamentary democratic system for the national government, which was formally named as the Democratic Republic of Ar. Following increased tensions with the Democratic Alliance of Birrics for Progress (DABP), the political party of the Birrics, a civil war between them started in 1952; this conflict was eventually won by the Amnics in 1958, effectively ending the Republic and starting the current Amnic State of Ta Seti. The Amnics expelled the surviving members of the DABP and started exercising significant control over the lives of the ethnic Birrics, imposing a one-child policy and indoctrinating youngers in the social policy of the CWCA.
Constitutionally, the party's highest body is the Perkharenput, the national legislative organ, which meets for party purposes every six years. The Perkharenput elects the appointed members of the Amnic Central Committee and the Amnic Committee of Guardians and Experts (ACGEX), responsible for enforcing party policy and discipline in the local governments.
