Modelavia

Modelavia is a fictional nation appearing in the geopolitical simulation game Arma 3. It is located in the Mediterranean Sea on two islands, Altis and Stratis. Modelavia is a member of NATO and is a strategically important location due to its proximity to the Middle East and Eastern Europe. The nation is known for its beautiful landscapes, historical sites, and diverse population.

The history of Modelavia is rich and complex. The islands have been inhabited for thousands of years, with evidence of Neolithic settlements dating back to the 7th millennium BC. Over the centuries, Modelavia has been occupied by various powers, including the Romans, Byzantines, Venetians, and Ottomans. In 1921, Modelavia gained its independence and became a republic.

Modelavia's economy is primarily based on tourism, agriculture, and shipping. The country is a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors with its pristine beaches, ancient ruins, and vibrant culture. Agriculture is also a significant sector, with olives, grapes, and citrus fruits being the main crops. Modelavia's strategic location in the Mediterranean has made it a hub for international shipping and trade.

In the context of Arma 3, Modelavia is the primary setting for the game's main single-player campaign, "The East Wind." The campaign depicts a fictional conflict between NATO forces, including the United States Army and the Greek Army, and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, who have invaded Altis. Players experience the conflict from the perspective of a US Army soldier caught in the middle of the war. The game explores themes of military intervention, political intrigue, and the human cost of war.
