Middle Eastern Federation

The Middle Eastern Federation is, or was, a comparatively small union based in the Middle East, possibly a union of Islamic countries similar to our Arab League. Little is known about their organization or composition, though it would seem that it's either a coalition of independent states, or a confederacy similar to the United Arab Emirates in the real world. The MEF would seem to be a largely Arab-based nation, judging on the dress uniforms of their soldiers and the architecture seen in episode 5. Though the map given shows it does not hold the traditionally Arab parts of North Africa, nor the Muslim parts of Anatolia, Central Asia, or the Caucauses. The Middle Eastern Federation seems to have the capability of producing their own Knightmare Frame called the Bamides and were called "shoddy oversized imitation Knightmare" by Andreas Darlton.

History
The Middle Eastern Federation was at war with the Holy Empire of Britannia until the middle of 2017 a.t.b., when elements of the Britannian Army under Cornelia's command finally put an end to fighting. It was then conquered and renamed Area 18. The Middle Eastern Federation deployed its own variant of the Knightmare Frame, the Bamides. As stated by General Bartley, it is assumed that the Middle Eastern Federation also had a Thought Elevator on their territory.

It is known that the MEF member-states had joined the U.F.N. upon its ratification, most likely by their governments, which were forced to go into exile.

Following Lelouch's ascension to the throne, he abolished Britannia's colonial rule, returning each respective area to their former government and name. It is presumed that the Middle Eastern Federation's status was restored as well.
