'''Josephinia''', officially the '''Commonwealth of Josephinia''' ({{wp|Osage language|Ínts’o}}: 𐒿𐓂͘𐓄𐒰 𐓀𐒰͘𐓓𐒰͘ 𐓁𐒻 𐓓𐓎𐓊𐒷, <small>{{wp|romanization|hernicized}}:</small> ''Sopʼa Mąžą Ni Žucʼe''), is a {{wp|sovereign state}} in [[Elia Borealis]]. It is bounded to the north by [[X]], to the west and southwest by [[Kahneska]], to the southeast by [[Siskiyou]], and to the east by the [[Alconian Ocean]]. Its {{wp|capital city|capital}} is [[Haliburt]] while its largest city is [[Port Royal, Josephinia|Port Royal]]; other major population centers include [[Delamore]], [[Gracebridge, Josephinia|Gracebridge]], [[Sequaneake]], [[Providence, Josephinia|Providence]], [[Fairview, Josephinia|Fairview]], [[Hamill, Josephinia|Hamill]], [[Pembroke, Josephinia|Pembroke]], and [[Springfield, Josephinia|Springfield]]. With a population of approximately 6.3 million, it is the [[Elia Borealis|fifth-most and least populous country]] in Elia Borealis, but its [[Elia Borealis|most densely populated]]. Josephinia spans 101,827 km<sup>2</sup> (39,316 sq mi), making it the [[Elia Borealis|single-smallest country]] on the continent and among the smallest in the [[Elias]]. | |||
Josephinia is located on the middle section of the [[Elian Alconian Plain]], the {{wp|foothill}} region of the [[Abaroskine Mountains]] which crosses the country diagonally from north-west to south-east; the adjacent [[Big Misty Mountains (Teleon)|Big Misty Mountains]] form the natural boundary to Kahneska. The centrally located [[Golden Valley (Teleon)|Golden Valley]] is the country's {{wp|breadbasket}} and most fertile region. The densely populated coastal areas around [[Sequaneake Bay]] are largely shaped by {{wp|ria|drowned river valleys}}, low {{wp|fjord|firth}}s, and {{wp|tidal marsh|tidal marshes}} known as the [[Tidewash]]. | |||
Various {{wp|indigenous people of the Americas|native Elian tribes}} have inhabited the territory of modern-day Josephinia for at least 11,000 years, including the [[Polhetan]] and the eastern [[Ama]]. In 1515, [[Falland|Fallish]] explorer [[Francis Edward Barpfylde]] became the first known [[Calesia]]n to make landfall in the region. Subsequently, in 1608, the [[United Wixdon Company]] created the [[Colony of Cisylvania]] around the trading posts of Port Royal and Delamore as the second permanent [[Fallish Empire|Fallish colony]] in the {{wp|New World}} after [[Fastings, Free States|Fastings]] in [[X]]. Renamed in 1702, the inhabitants of now Josephinia fought for {{wp|independence}} in the Elian [[Revolution of Nations]] in 1759 and became part of the [[Grand Federation (Teleon)|Grand Federation]] in 1776. | |||
Dissatisfied with Fallish authority in Calesia, religiously prosecuted [[Cowerer]]s and other minorities flocked to Josephinia en masse in the late 18th century, nearly quadrupling the state's population in the span of 20 years. By 1800, the so-called [[Steaders (Teleon)|Steaders]] had repeatedly violated the [[Proclaimed Demarcation Line of 1750]] and began to {{wp|settler colonialism|settle and colonize}} the continent's interior from the eastern {{wp|frontier}}; the native populations were displaced. Following [[First Steader War|an armed rebellion]] in the 1880s, the weakening Grand Federation recognized the approximately 90,000 Steaders' independence beyond the Big Misty Mountains through the 1889 [[Casper Convention]]. The [[Elian Civil War]] coincided with [[Second Steader War|a final attempt]] by the Free States to seize back control over Josephinia, before such desires permanently ceased. | |||
Over the course of the 20th century, Josephinia was subject to an alternating series of civil and {{wp|democracy|democratic}} governments and {{wp|military junta}}s; the near century-long {{wp|one-party rule}} of the [[National Party of Josephinia|National Party]] dominated Josephinian politics, gradually strengthening {{wp|racial segregation}} and rapidly {{wp|industrialization|industrializing}} the formerly {{wp|protectionism|protectionist}} economy. In [[1920 Josephinian coup d'état|1920]] and [[1944 Josephinian coup d'état|1944]], the [[Armed Forces of Josephinia|military]] repeatedly seized control. Amidst mounting {{wp|sanctions}} by its continental neighbors, Josephinia's [[Constitution of Josephinia|amended constitution]] formally abolished racially motivated hindrances for the native population in 1977. | |||
A {{wp|developed country}}, Josephinia ranks highly in international measures of {{wp|Human Development Index|quality of life}}, {{wp|human rights}}, and suppressed {{wp|corruption}}, but still retains a significant {{wp|economic inequality}} between the white and native populations.

Josephinia, officially the Commonwealth of Josephinia (Ínts’o: 𐒿𐓂͘𐓄𐒰 𐓀𐒰͘𐓓𐒰͘ 𐓁𐒻 𐓓𐓎𐓊𐒷, hernicized: Sopʼa Mąžą Ni Žucʼe), is a sovereign state in Elia Borealis. It is bounded to the north by X, to the west and southwest by Kahneska, to the southeast by Siskiyou, and to the east by the Alconian Ocean. Its capital is Haliburt while its largest city is Port Royal; other major population centers include Delamore, Gracebridge, Sequaneake, Providence, Fairview, Hamill, Pembroke, and Springfield. With a population of approximately 6.3 million, it is the fifth-most and least populous country in Elia Borealis, but its most densely populated. Josephinia spans 101,827 km2 (39,316 sq mi), making it the single-smallest country on the continent and among the smallest in the Elias.
Josephinia is located on the middle section of the Elian Alconian Plain, the foothill region of the Abaroskine Mountains which crosses the country diagonally from north-west to south-east; the adjacent Big Misty Mountains form the natural boundary to Kahneska. The centrally located Golden Valley is the country's breadbasket and most fertile region. The densely populated coastal areas around Sequaneake Bay are largely shaped by drowned river valleys, low firths, and tidal marshes known as the Tidewash.
Various native Elian tribes have inhabited the territory of modern-day Josephinia for at least 11,000 years, including the Polhetan and the eastern Ama. In 1515, Fallish explorer Francis Edward Barpfylde became the first known Calesian to make landfall in the region. Subsequently, in 1608, the United Wixdon Company created the Colony of Cisylvania around the trading posts of Port Royal and Delamore as the second permanent Fallish colony in the New World after Fastings in X. Renamed in 1702, the inhabitants of now Josephinia fought for independence in the Elian Revolution of Nations in 1759 and became part of the Grand Federation in 1776.
Dissatisfied with Fallish authority in Calesia, religiously prosecuted Cowerers and other minorities flocked to Josephinia en masse in the late 18th century, nearly quadrupling the state's population in the span of 20 years. By 1800, the so-called Steaders had repeatedly violated the Proclaimed Demarcation Line of 1750 and began to settle and colonize the continent's interior from the eastern frontier; the native populations were displaced. Following an armed rebellion in the 1880s, the weakening Grand Federation recognized the approximately 90,000 Steaders' independence beyond the Big Misty Mountains through the 1889 Casper Convention. The Elian Civil War coincided with a final attempt by the Free States to seize back control over Josephinia, before such desires permanently ceased.
Over the course of the 20th century, Josephinia was subject to an alternating series of civil and democratic governments and military juntas; the near century-long one-party rule of the National Party dominated Josephinian politics, gradually strengthening racial segregation and rapidly industrializing the formerly protectionist economy. In 1920 and 1944, the military repeatedly seized control. Amidst mounting sanctions by its continental neighbors, Josephinia's amended constitution formally abolished racially motivated hindrances for the native population in 1977.
A developed country, Josephinia ranks highly in international measures of quality of life, human rights, and suppressed corruption, but still retains a significant economic inequality between the white and native populations. Nationally, legislative power is vested in the unicameral National Parliament, while executive power is exercised by the President heading the Government. Josephinia is a member state of the United Congress, Organization of Elian States, Fallish Community, Alconian Forum, and the X, and it enjoys particularly close relations with Falland and with the Free States.
