The People's Republic of Arimfea, more commonly known as simply Arimfea, is the oldest nation on Horizon's End. Arimfea was founded on the 25th of October, 2016, on Star Legacy by the server's owner MicleBrick (on his alternate account, Raimus) and has existed near-continuously since. Arimfea was originally a piracy focused monarchy, but since the April Revolution of 2025 has been proclaimed a Republic and has abandoned piracy. Arimfea aims to maintain friendly relations with most nations, but has few military ties to others.

Arimfea was formally founded by MicleBrick on the 25th of October, 2016 on Star Legacy, the space-minecraft successor to StarQuest and predecessor server to Horizon's End. However, early conceptions of the then-Arabian inspired pirate nation were materializing as early as 2014 on StarQuest, within the factions of RedChaos and SkyDogs. Arimfea was born into a conflict with Oblivion, a rival privateer nation. After Oblivion left the server, Arimfea became what is widely considered to have been the most succesful pirate nation on Star Legacy. In 2018, during its golden age, it had no serious opposition from colonists or privateers and fully controlled two entire planets. Arimfea is the only nation in the shared history of SL and HE to accomplish such a feat.

MicleBrick had organized Arimfea as an absolute monarchy, but had become increasingly stubborn towards the end of 2018. Disagreements with the leadership of Hibernia escalated into a secession and the establishment of the Sakaran Executive Republic. This newly independent nation allied with a resurgent Oblivion. With most of their fleet and elite pilots having left the nation, Arimfea stood little chance and suffered incredibile losses. MicleBrick reformed the nation into a constitutional monarchy, abandoning piracy. He allied with Ekatera and formed the Andromedan Republic, a grand alliance and confederation of most nations on the server. The Andromedan Republic would defeat Oblivion eventually, but Arimfea never recovered from its initial losses. The Andromedan Republic would eventually stagnate and collapse in the Andromedan Republic-Vega War, with Arimfea remaining mostly dormant thereafter.

MicleBrick had named Middosk (then known as amgar007) as his Emir in 2019. Using this claim to the throne, he re-established Arimfea on Horizon's End together with Vortexion and FellOffBridge. Middosk maintained the constitutional structure that Micle implemented but would delegate much of the nation to Vortexion due to his own inactivity. Vortexion effectively ran the nation as an autocrat, at least nominally still maintaining the Sultanate. His leadership turned Arimfea into a great power, even briefly being considered a possible competitor by the server hegemon, Vega. Vortexion's leadership later faltered. Disagreements with FellOffBridge led to his secession, with the same happening later with Blackular and Haven's secession. Vortexion would eventually leave the nation himself as well, joining Cortesia Del Mar. With his departure, all three major space stations and Arimfea's sole remaining trade city of Cadia were lost. Vortexion appointed Peregri as succeeding Grand Vizier, who would later return power to the Sultan. Arimfea then continued to exist as a rump state, usually referred to as the Arimfean Remnant.

On April 9th, 2025, the monarchy, which had reigned for over 8 years, was overthrown. Arimfea reformed into a Republic, abandoning piracy once again.

Internal Politics

The People's Republic seperates the heads of state and government into the President and Premier, respectively. The President is elected, but has no terms and the office is only transferred upon abdication or death. The same goes for the Vice-President, but they can also be replaced by presidential decree at any time. The Premier is elected democratically every 3 months, with no term limits. The Premier forms a government and appoints ministers. This government can at any point be dissolved by the President, resulting in new elections. This national government is known as the People's Council. Arimfea is a federative state. Settlement leaders have a seat in the People's Congress, aimed at keeping the People's Council in check.

Diplomatic Relations

Arimfea openly aims to maintain friendly relations with all nations, but tries to keep out of interstellar conflicts. The Republic also inherited a rivalry with Cortesia Del Mar from the Sultanate due to several border disputes. Arimfea is allied with Vega, but has no military ties to them.

-'''Arimfea''', also called the '''Arimfean Remnant''' or '''أرمفيا''', is the oldest lasting nation in space-minecraft history. On Horizon's End, the nation was re-established on the 27th of December, 2022. It slowly transitioned from a pirate-oriented semi-constitutional monarchy into a ''de facto'' dictatorship under Grand Vizier [[Vortexion]]. Vortexion focused more on the development of cities and stations such as [[Cadia]] and [[Seraph]]. Vortexion would eventually leave the nation for [[Cortesia Del Mar]], effectively causing the collapse of Arimfea. During this time, most key settlements and members also seceded. Sultan [[Middosk]] returned to activity the autumn of 2024 and reinstated the absolute monarchy. Today the remnants of Arimfea mostly keep to their own affairs, with occasional pirate activity.

 = Internal Politics =
-Arimfea is currently organised as a feudal empire, with an assembly of nobility leading the nation via consensus. This "first" assembly is chaired by the Sultan. The nobility has two ranks, Pasha and Bey, with the former given to leaders of large settlements and the second to those of smaller ones. Arimfea has no constitution, as it was abolished by Sultan's decree following the collapse of the nation. There exists, however, a defunct constitutional system of a "second" assembly. This assembly is chaired by the (elected) Grand Vizier, who appoints Viziers to serve as their government. In this system, the first assembly has far less executive power and the Sultan would serve as a more ceremonial position.

-Arimfea used to be part of the [[Ilios Alliance]] as a founding member, but left shortly after Vortexion's departure. It is now distant towards the alliance, and has openly stated their distaste of and rival attitude towards Cortesia del Mar. Arimfea had a short-lived alliance with Ekatera up until the [[Vega-Ekatera War]]. Arimfea has since allied with [[Vega]], but announced no military ties to them.
