Triada is the capital province of The Republic of Astoria, Its provincial capital of Triada City is the home of the federal Astorian government.

Geography
Located in the area commonly referred to as East Astoria (Along with Arton), Triada is mostly grassy plains with more elevated and rough terrain the closer you get to East Montania. Its northeastern part bordering Arton possesses some less developed wetland.

Most of Triadans live in the urban areas with a small minority of Montanians living in the western Montanian border.

Politics
Triada is known as "The beating heart of Astoria" for the fact that its the homeland of Astorian culture and for the fact that its the Industrial center of Astoria,meaning that its exports to other provinces are vital for their economies.

The most well known industry from Triada is Absinthe which is exclusively extracted from the Triadan side of East Montanian-Triadan border due to the "Montanian Preservation Act of 2001" which bans the extraction of Absinthe in the two Montanian provinces.

This has caused some rivalry between the Rich Absinthe Businessmen and the Montanian preservators.
