Balkan — AI-Kingdom of the Turkmenistan Coalition-AI
Balkan is run entirely by the AI. It answers to the Turkmenistan Coalition-AI, the federation head of a Caspian Central Asian gas exporter. Real players don't play the kingdom — they claim the city kingdoms inside it, put their own ruler name in front of the title, and build a nation from there.

Turkmenistan presides over 6 AI-Kingdoms and 31 city kingdoms from Ashgabat. It fields 148,096 soldiers and 3,929 tanks, and holds a balanced posture. Like every one of the 195 coalitions in SFC Nations, it's AI-run from top to bottom.
All kingdoms of TurkmenistanQuestions about Balkan
Does Balkan fight alongside players?
It can. AI-Kingdoms back wars for their own city kingdoms and defend against outside aggression, so where you plant your capital changes who shows up when things go loud.
Does it cost anything to claim a title in Balkan?
Nothing. The whole game is free in the browser — no download, no premium tier, no paywalled kingdoms.
Is Turkmenistan playable as one nation?
No. Turkmenistan plays as a Coalition-AI, the same way the United States does. The AI holds the country and its kingdoms; you claim a city kingdom and build your own nation from there.
Which city kingdoms can I claim in Balkan?
Türkmenbaşy, Balkanabat, Gyzylarbat and 3 more. Each one becomes a title: you put your own ruler name in front of it, like "Aurelian - Kingdom of Türkmenbaşy".
Can two players hold titles in Balkan?
Yes, as long as they hold different city kingdoms. One player per city, many players per kingdom.
