The Indo-Pacific Economic Sphere

Introduction
The Indo-Pacific Economic Sphere (or IPES) is a platform in which the nations of Aqan, Bactria, Kauna, Atsi, Acadia and Haikou trade freely and usually agree on military action against rivals and also attacks on less advanced nations. The first iteration of the platform was created after the Bactrian crisis, in which Bactria was forced to lose most of its fertile land to UDAN (or the Union of Democratic Amerigonian Nations), Aqan requested the creation of an alliance of the various powers of Azania and Ocea (called the Indo-Pacific Pact) that would collectively fight against the Amerigonian powers. After the Great War, which resulted in an IPP victory, the Indo-Pacific Pact had to rebrand itself as a more economic focused alliance as their main enemies, the Union of Democratic Amerigonian Nations, have been defeated and humiliated.

War against Da Zhao
After UDAN had been defeated, another enemy would arise against the interests of Bactria, Kauna and Atsi: Da Zhao, whose complete control of shipping from Azania to the Indian Ocean, rampant colonialism and blatant lack of guilt for genocide of its own peoples made the aforementioned nations convene on IPES and figure out a plan to neuter the threat of Da Zhao. After rounds of talks, they were able to figure out a war plan and how to split Da Zhao among different nations. But things didn't go as planned. After Bactria, Atsi and Kauna declared war in 1763, Cheyennine and Aqan (which didn't participate much) proceeded to trade neutrality in the war with land acquisitions in Europa and Amerika, causing nations like the Kilo Empire and the Amerikan National State to not gain land that they should have owned. The other nations, namely Bactria, Atsi and Kauna, proceeded to fight against Da Zhao, and the united navy largely stomped Da Zhao, especially when Azania shipping is forced open by a Bactrian fleet while its armies marched through South East Azania, and Atsi and Kauna fleets were able to fight and hold onto islands in the homelands of Da Zhao. The treaty that followed was deeply humiliating to Da Zhao, as it lost all mainland South East Asian colonies to Bactria, lost Southern Philippines to Kauna, and most humiliating of all, the island that controlled shipping from Azania to India is taken as a jointly controlled island between Bactria, Atsi and Kauna, and restrictions of its navy would prevent Da Zhao from having an effaceable navy ever again.
