The Republic of Imere (Eduran: Meanwealth of Imerestaat), commonly known as Imere or Imerestad is an island nation located in the Straits of Imere, located between the Locufaric Ocean to the east and the Abayadi Sea to the west and the continents of Alutra to the north and Skephon to the south. Imere shares a maritime border with Duomo to the north.

Throughout paleolithic history, Imere was settled by various peoples but continuous settlement first began with the Korle. The Korle were ancient Gožyars who had separated from the Golans, first settling on the island of Korle prior to the conclusion of the last glacial period. Korlish settlers arrived in Imere around 1,000 BCE, a migration that led to the development of the prehistoric Imerese.

In the 500s CE, Imere was invaded by the Haskard Empire, who turned the island into a tributary and naval base. The island played a crucial role in Haskar maritime activities. Over the centuries, Imere became a melting pot of cultures, with influences from Alutrans, Jaraders, and Ventorans. diverse religious and cultural landscape, with H'Ejrad becoming dominant by 1168. Imere gained independence for a short period of time as the Kingdom of Imere, but was quickly colonized by Edury (more specifically, the Eduran Expeditionary Company). During the 20th century, Imere was a flashpoint for global conflicts, including World War I and World War II. After World War III, the island was placed under the administration of the International Straits Commission (ISC) before gaining independence in 1960. In the decades that followed, Imere saw rapid economic growth and social transformation, including the forced integration of its multi-ethnic population which caused a series of riots in the city. Today, Imere remains a major hub for international trade and finance, with a foreign policy centered on maintaining neutrality and open access to the strategically important Imere Straits.

It is a highly developed economy largely driven by its strategic location as a major entrepôt in global trade routes. The nation's GDP per capita (nominal) ranks second globally, with a nominal GDP of Ꝟ593.8 billion in 2024. Imere's economy is fueled by a large service sector, which includes finance, trade, and education. In 2024, Imere had a high level of foreign investment. As of 2024, Imere was the highest ranked nation in the Human Development Index (HDI), and regularly ranks high in international metrics on education, health, life expectancy and low in infant mortality. Both the Imerestad Stock Exchange (ISX) and the Imerestad Futures and Commodities Exchange (IFFCX), two of the largest exchange market exchanges are located in Imere. The Port of Imerestad is one the largest maritime ports in the world, processing approximately 40,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) of material annually.
