Atlantis is one of undersea nations of Merpeople. Taking up most of southern Maritimus, and once extending into the central, around the Rito Empire, through what was known as the Atlantean Abyssal before the independence of Bivalvia, it is the largest nation in the region, save for having no land borders. It is the only one of the two undersea nations in Maritimus consisting of solely merpeople.

Bivalvian is one of two undersea nations of Merpeople. Once the northern territories of Atlantis before seceding following the Atlantean Civil War, aka the Merfolk Civil War, Bivalvia occupies the expanse of ocean near the center of Maritimus, bordering the territorial waters of Gargantia to the north, Rito to the south, Alabasta to the east, the Kappa Islands to the northwest, and New Hyrule to the southwest.

Republic of Gargantia
Capital: Fairlock Village Government: Unitary Republic Head of State: Chief Councilman Head of Government: Chief Councilman Legislature: Council of Gargantia Demonym: Gargantian Currency: Token

The Republic of Gargantia is the sole republic of Maritimus. Consisting of many islands, coral reefs, islets and a single large volcanic island in the northwest, it is a seafaring country by origin. Mostly descendants of exiles and immigrants from the nearby island nations and the two undersea kingdoms, Gargantia is a country where Humans and Merfolk co-exist side-by-side. Gargantia is sometimes also called paradise due to it's near isolation from the rest of the world, and the waters remain pure and untouched, allowing the tradition of surfing.

Kappa Islands (Fuso)

The Kappa Islands, aka the Kappa Archipelago, is a clump of islands in northwestern Maritimus under the imperial sovereignty of the Empire of Fuso.

Insula Mortem
Insula Mortem (Latin: Island of Death) is a pair of skull-shaped islands in the middle of Maritimus. It is, by a mutual unwritten agreement between the nations, neutral ground. In exploitation of this, pirates have made it a haven for hiding out and the island has been long feared to house the souls of the dead that never passed from the world. Other myths say that this island houses the tomb of the original seven Lunaoculi, thus making it their final resting place. But this has yet to be proven either fact or fiction as no one, not even the pirates that use the island, has ever ventured into the bowels of the island for more than 5000 years.
