Costa Cafeinada is a cartel nation in the Mexican region.

Historical background

Once merely a bit player on the Mexican stage, Costa Cafeinada has taken the ascendant in the falling shadows of its neighbouring empires. Uninterested in glory or conquest, the Baron's desire for wealth and an economic monopoly is only thinly checked by lip-service obeisance to the Aztlan throne. But the bounds of subservianceIn-game spelling will not hold Costa back for long, and everyone who's anyone knows that when it comes to the long con, you don't bet against the baron.

While most people south of Tlaloc are unsure how uniquely dried cacao beans became the currency of much of the world, many leaders suspect the Baron as responsible. Whatever the truth, he regularly invests resources and funds to expand the economy... and enrich himself.
