The Dominion of Satavia (Hennish: Heerschappij van Satavia), commonly called the "Hope Dominion" or "Satavia", was the historical successor state to the Estmerish Hope, and existed between 1816 until 1936. It was the longest lasting of Estmere's dominions, and remained a dominion until the end of The Great War, when it was abolished.

The Dominion was established by the Home Rule (Satavia) Act, 1816, following a royal proclimation by the King of Estmere. This came five years following Nuvania's Home Rule Act. The Dominion's first Prime Minister was Richard Somerset, who was elected in the Dominion's first election in 1816.

Economic growth boomed during the period, and is often referred to in Satavia as the "Estmerish Miracle". The period, however, also saw a sharp decline in the Native Population, along with the decline of the use of the Hennish language.
