Sylvaine, officially known as the Fourth Sylvaise Republic is a country located in West Markion. Sylvaine shares borders with Clementique and Matalàs to the north, Terestroi to the north east, the Calico Colonies to the south, and a maritime border with the Villuois to the west. Its metropolitan area extends from the Cayenne Strait to the Parpilaid Sea and from the Calico River to the Corde Channel and the Southern Sea. Its 10 states span a combined area of 549,110 km², featuring a wide variety of landscapes, from coastal plains in the north and west to mountain ranges in the south. Since the ratification of the Fourth Constitution of the Republic in 1947, Sylvaine has been a unitary constitutional republic with a semi-presidential system. Its capital is located in Revel, the country's largest city and main cultural and commercial centre. Its official language is French, the language of administration since 1611. As of 1 January, 2010, the population of Sylvaine is approximately 62,793,432.

During the Iron Age, the territory of present-day metropolitan Sylvaine was inhabited by Celtic tribes known as Taurs, before falling under Galeigian rule in 105 BCE following the Tauric War. The Germanic Sylves settled there in the 5th century and founded the Gale Empire in the 9th century, leading to a distinct Galegian-Sylvaine culture. The empire was partitioned in 955, and North Gale became the Kingdom of Sylvaine, a prominent power in the region throughout the Middle Ages. By the early 19th century, events such as the 1812 Parpilaid earthquake, the country's occupation during the Toutainic Wars, and the resulting Great Famine of 1840 led to a marked decay of Sylvaine's prior opulence. This was followed by the civil war between liberal constitutionalists and conservative absolutists over royal succession from 1860 to 1861. The 1865 revolution deposed Sylvaine's monarchy, and established the democratic but unstable First Sylvaise Republic, later superseded by the authoritarian regimes of the Second Republic until 1918. Democracy was restored after the 1921 Tournesol Revolution, which precipitated the creation of the third, and fourth subsequent republics respectively.

Sylvaine has the twenty-fifth highest GDP per capita in the world when adjusted for purchasing power parity, the tenth-largest manufacturing industry in the world, and is a significant role in regional and global economic, military, cultural, and diplomatic affairs. A developed country, ranking 30th in the Human Development Index, Sylvaine is a founding and leading member of the Iron Alliance, and it is in numerous international institutions, including the Markion Energy Protocol (MEP), and the Trans-Southern Free Trade Agreement. As a cultural icon, Sylvaine has long been a renowned centre of art, music, literature, cuisine, fashion, science and technology, and the source of multiple inventions and discoveries. It has over 30 World Heritage Sites, and is the world's eleventh-most visited country as of 2010.
