The Levantine Republic is a country in the Eastern Mediterranean and the Levant. It is bounded by the Mediterranean Sea, Israel, and Egypt to the west, Türkiye to the North and East, South Iraq in the Fatimid Trade Caliphate to the East, and Arabia to the South. It was formed out of the territories of north-western Iraq, Lebanon, Independent Jordan, and Syria by Tariq Al-Hashim in the aftermath of the Reset of Nations.
In 185 BFC the Tariq Al-Hashim led NRF seized Euphrates crossings and depots, accepted a quiet DMZ with Israel in exchange for supervised access to Haifa, and reopened food and fuel trade. In October a constitutional assembly proclaimed the Levantine Republic, Ankara recognised it after security guarantees, and the Damascus Accords of 184 BFC fixed borders while granting limited Kurdish cantonal autonomy. Between 181 and 175 BFC the Republic absorbed Sunni majority districts of north-west Iraq, and in 174 BFC, with French advisers, folded the Alawite coast into the Republic.
The Republic has a mixed, state-led market economy, producing large quantities of water from the solar desalinisation plants of Beqaa State for farming irrigation in the Syrian steppe. It agriculture shifted from rain-fed cereal to high-value irrigated crops after the government permitted Qalamoun Ḥayawiyya to be acquired by German company Bioforge in exchange for a continual transfer of crop variants.
At the time of the Republic's founding there were almost no Jewish communities in the republic, however after the Republic's normalisation of relations with Israel in November 184 BFC several have been founded and some notable Jewish people have grown up in the Republic, including Levi Weiss.
