Ato Ha No to Nare Yamatonadeshiko

[Machine Translation] Aralstan in Central Asia. It is a small country in the desert, built at the end of the Soviet era. In this country, the first president of the Soviet Union transformed the backrooms that once housed his concubines into places of higher education for promising women, and girls who had lost their homes for various reasons were studying day and night to become politicians and diplomats. Natsuki, a Japanese girl, is one of those who lost her parents in the conflict and has come to live here. She is living a carefree life with Aisha, the leader of the young people in the palace, and Jamila, a caring young woman whom she considers her sister, but things change when the current president is assassinated. Despite the national crisis, the men who had been in charge of the country have fled, leaving only the girls in the inner palace. In order to protect the country and their place in it, they set up their own temporary government and struggle to make a go of it...? The problems are piling up: civil strife, diplomacy, religious conflicts, terrorism, conspiracies, and environmental destruction. Still, the girls laugh off today's hardships and keep moving forward to tomorrow, but what will they finally grasp?
