The People's Republic of Morota is in South America.
History
Its communist regime, led by Camarada Presidente Ortiz, had years of border hostilities with its western neighbor San Egnatio. However, as both nations wanted trade sanctions lifted, they agreed to talks, led by the neutral Wonder Woman. The talks were also of interest to the nations' inland neighbors, who wanted access to the canal and port the countries had, and the United States was interested in unexplored mineral and gas opportunities.
Eris, the goddess of strife, chose to hamper Wonder Woman's talks. She filled the border region Morota was about to cede with oil, and notified authorities in both nations. The border situation escalated. Wonder Woman defused the situation by abducting both leaders and reminding them that, because of the oil, they would just become overpowered by the West. Begrudgingly, Ortiz and Flores decided to work together to extract and trade the oil.
