| Capital | Pelograd |

| Government | Federal constitutional monarchy |
The Kingdom of Pelinai is a federal, parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a largely ceremonial monarch and an independent, democratically elected civilian government headed by the Pelinese State Parliament. Its administrative territory is composed of 45 prefectures and five federal cities, each of which maintain a measure of autonomy in domestic affairs and elect ministers of parliament to represent them in the Pelinese State Parliament. Major cities in Pelinai include Tsugunare on the Marahu River, Hanahi on Pelinai’s western border, Shizukaiyō on the eastern Seiko Sea, Dainēsa in the western Yukisora Mountains, Botanhata, in northern Sevaria, Mizu-Soi-No-Machi on coastal Sevaria, Yurikawa, in central Pelinai, Marasei, close to the former borderlands between Stelossia and Sevaria, Korolyeviya, in the Yukisora Mountains, Letograd, which rests on the southern peninsula of Stelossia, Zholtograd, on the western coast of the island of Zholtiya Zemla, and the capital of Pelograd on the northeastern Mediterranean coast.
The Kingdom of Pelinai was first formed by the Kingdom of Stelossia in 1781 AD, after the conquest of the Third Loshkarian Karaltsate and the Sevar Karaltsate, though the area in which it resides has remained continuously inhabited by civilization since the early Bronze Age. The first major empire to exist in what is now Pelinai was the Neo-Samarahi Empire, which conquered large areas of Milayakh and the South Bailtemmic Plain during the Bailtemmic Iron Age before giving way to the Chorekites, which were then followed by the horse nomads of the Great Polyar Karaltsate. The later faltering of central Polyar control in eastern Milayakh brought the establishment of the Loshkar Dakaraltsate of the south, the Koryar Karaltsate of the east, and the Sevar Karaltsate of the northeast; these successor states would continue to war with both each other and neighboring states such as the Kingdom of Samara and the unified Kingdom of Stelossia intermittently throughout the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries.

The Aetherdyne Ae-16 Fuyuhana is a Pelinese carrier-capable, twin-engine, all-weather strike fighter aircraft developed and manufactured by Pelinese aerospace bureau Aetherdyne. The Fuyuhana was developed to provide fleet defense and sea attack capabilities for aircraft carriers of the Royal Pelinese Navy, and is the standard tactical fighter aircraft of the Royal Pelinese Navy Air Service. Low-rate production of the type is ongoing as new airframes cycle in upgraded technology or replace planes lost to accidents, and over 800 airframes of all variants have been produced as of August 2023.
The Fuyuhana was the first fixed-wing naval aircraft to be designed in Pelinai and the first to be operated by the Royal Pelinese Navy, with it taking its first flight in 2004 and receiving full adoption in 2009 alongside the newly commissioned KPF Pelograd. Various upgrade packages targeting electronics systems and other areas have allowed the Fuyuhana to maintain technological parity and resolve technical problems present in initial production models, and the type is expected to remain in active RPNAS service well into the 2070s.
The Ae-16 Fuyuhana is significantly more advanced than preceding Pelinese aircraft designs in materials, processing and assembly technologies, electronics & sensors technologies, sensor signature minimization, and many other areas, and its introduction into service represents an enormous increase in combat capability and flexibility for the Royal Pelinese Navy. Its combination of extended combat radius, high weapons payload capacity, advanced search and fire control sensors, and minimized sensor signature allows RPN carrier air wings to effectively threaten modern aircraft, surface combatants, and ground forces operated by peer adversaries, while upgrades made to it over its service life have eliminated early production problems, improved whole-aircraft reliability and mission availability, and implemented new electronic and other mission systems.
