Creta is a nation that borders Amestris to the west. Also off its coast lies a neutral nation called Carraig, and to the north is Drachma. While a small country, it has in recent times become very much defiant; Creta is a country that has been forced to be reborn out of the ashes of a war, and in the rebuilding process the country's common man has garnered an attitude of new beginnings. These are a people who see themselves as survivors reborn, hoping to mould an entirely new, better world. The political landscape currently favours the left wing schools of thinking, particularly socialism and positive liberty, though not as nearly to the left as when Rachel I was originally Queen, and in the aftermath of the Deadlight Virus became one of the top economic powerhouses due to its lucrative trading network. It boasts amongst its strengths a vibrant culture of artists, a strong engineering and shipping sector and an open door policy on immigration, with Atlas City becoming the financial capital of the entire world. The landscape of Creta is varied, but much of the population is concentrated on the coasts, with plains and rolling hills make up much of central Creta and northern Creta being mountainous.
