It is bordered to the north by [[Vvarden]] and [[Arzvan Republic|Arzvan]], to the south [[Alforja]] and to the south and east by [[Ardaima]]. The country borders the [[Opal Ocean]] to the west. The country covers a land area of 423,030 km2 (163,330 sq mi) with an estimated population as of 2018 of more than 45.5 million, who concentrate in the country's xx plain. The country's largest city is [[Cals]] and the {{wpl|capital city}} is [[Mortara]]. Other significant cities include [[Ivrea]], [[Lòbi]] and [[Samaraa]].

| Aleramia is a {{wpl|Federal state|federal}} {{wpl|Directorial system|directorial}} {{wpl|constitutional monarchy}}. It is divided into [[Administrative divisions of Aleramia|14 sovereign provinces]] (''provincia'', ''provincc'' in plural) while the country's federal government and its royal family seats in [[Mortara]]. The country's official language is {{wpl|Gallo-Italic languages|Fiorentin}}, although {{wpl|Catalan language|Alforjac}}, {{wpl|Italian language|Arday}}, [[Arzvan language|Arzvan]] are recognised languages at the provincial level.

| | |
| The [[House of Aleram]] is the longest-reigning royal house in Asura and among the oldest in Aeia, dating back to [[Midrasia]]n {{wpl|nobleman}} [[Aleram, Count of Altipian]] (d. 929). The territory of modern-day Aleramia was inhabited by {{wpl|Celtic people|!Celtic peoples}} until the [[Fiorentine Empire|Fiorentine conquest]] of the territory in the 1st century BCE. The ensuing {{wpl|Romanisation|Fiorentinisation}} of the province of Aurona changed the cultural and linguistic landscape of the territory, with the advent of {{wpl|Classical Latin|Fiorentine}} as the ''{{wpl|lingua franca}}'' replacing a variety of !Celtic languages. After the fall of the Fiorentine Empire, the territory split along various petty kingdoms dominated by Fiorentine noblemen, until the conquest by the {{wpl|?}}. The ? Kingdom would exist from 600 CE to about the year 1060 CE as royal authority was weakened to the advantage of the renascent {{wpl|cities}}. During the [[Alydian Wars]], [[Aleram, Count of Altipian]] was named Count of Altipian by the Primate [[xx]], and tasked with putting an end to the {{wpl|Waldensian|?}} heresy in [[Tremezzina]]. Aleram and his descendants would establish their court in easternmost Aleramia and over the centuries proceeded to consolidate their authority and expand its territories westwards leading to the signing of the [[Union of Cortnoeua]] (1262).
| |
| | |
| The expansionistic policy of the Aleram and the weakening conflicts caused by the rivalries between the cities of [[Cals]], [[Luni]], [[Alba]] and the lords of [[Alta Langa]] gradually permitted dukes [[William XVII]], [[William XVIII]], [[Rainier III]] and particularly [[Conrad V]] to gain suzerainty over the entirety of modern-day Aleramia, and centralise power. Aleramia began its {{wpl|industrialisation}} in the mid-19th century, propelled by its {{wpl|Agriculture|specialised}} {{wpl|Capitalism|capitalist}} {{wpl|agriculture}} and {{wpl|textile industry}} and its favourable location. The country participated in the [[First Great War (Aeia)|Great War]], leading to social instability that culminated in the ''{{wpl|arengo}}'' of 1901, after which {{wpl|universal suffrage}} was introduced.
| |
| | |
| Today, Aleramia is a {{wpl|developed country}}, with an {{wpl|advanced economy|advanced}} {{wpl|high-income economy}}. It has very high {{wpl|standards of living}}, {{wpl|quality of life}}, {{wpl|healthcare}}, {{wpl|education}}, and is categorised as "very high" in the {{wpl| Human Development Index}}. The country has a {{wpl|multi-party political system}} ranked as "free" by the [[Aeian Freedom Index]].

| |
| [[File:Don-sancho-el-mayor.-rizzi..jpg|175px|right|thumb|[[Aleram, Count of Altipian|Aleram]] depicted by 17th century painter [[Lissander Bordon]].]] The States of Aleram's short, official name is ''Aleramia'' but it is also commonly known as ''Urona'', both as an {{wpl|endonym}} and an {{wpl|exonym}}.
| |
| | |
| 'Aleramia' is named after the [[House of Aleram]], the reigning {{wpl|royal house}} of the country since the late {{wpl|10th century}} {{wpl|CE}}. The name of the house is {{wpl|patronymic}}. It derives from the name of the first head of the house and first Count of Altipian, [[Aleram, Count of Altipian|Aleram]], a [[Midrasia]]n {{wpl|nobleman}} born in [[xx]]. Aleram, or ''Alérame'' in {{wpl|French language|Midrasian}} is a {{wpl|name}} of {{wpl|Germanic languages|Alemannic origin}} although the {{wpl|etymology}} remains unclear. The most commonly-held theory is that 'Alérame' is formed by two particles. The first, that is derived from ''Adel'' ('noble' in {{wpl|Proto-Germanic language|proto-Alemmanic}}) and ''Hraban'' ('{{wpl|raven}}' in {{wpl|Proto-Germanic language|Proto-Alemmanic}}), a reference to the bird of {{wpl|Wuotan}}, the supreme deity in {{wpl|Germanic mythology|Alemannic mythology}}. The modern name ''Aleram'' in {{wpl|Gallo-Italic languages|Fiorentin}}'s neighbouring Fiorentine languages, {{wpl|French language|Midrasian}} {{wpl|Italian language|Arday}} and {{wpl|Catalan language|Alforjac}} all have different versions of the name, ''Alérame'' and ''Aleramo'' and ''Aleram'' respectively.
| |
| | |
| The term 'Urona' instead is of {{wpl|Latin|Fiorentine origin}}. 'Urona', or rarely 'Uronia', comes from the Fiorentine word for the province that occupies most of modern-day Aleramia, 'Aurona'. The term Urona may ultimately be tied to the {{wpl|Celtic languages|!Celtic root}} 'OL-', meaning 'large' in reference to the [[Urona River]], the most important {{wpl|waterway}} in Aleramia.

| }} Aleramia is a {{wpl|Federal state|federal}} {{wpl|directorial system|directorial}} {{wpl|constitutional monarchy}} and it is often described as a {{wpl|consociational state}}. The political system operates within the framework of the [[Politics of Aleramia|Constitutional Laws]], an {{wpl|Codified constitution|uncodified constitution}} formed by nine laws that date from 1459 to 2015. The States of the Aleram feature a {{wpl|multi-party system}} where power is shared and {{wpl|coalition}}s are the norm, there has been no {{wpl|majority government}} since the introduction of {{wpl|proportional representation}} in 1905.
| |
| | |
| The [[Monarch of the States of the Aleram|monarch]] is the {{wpl|head of state}}, currently [[William XXIII of Aleramia|William XXIII]], whose reign began in 2014 following the death of King [[Ferdinand III of Aleramia| Ferdinand III]]. The monarch's duties are mostly ceremonial, he serves as the {{wpl|commander-in-chief}} of the [[Military of Aleramia|country's armed forces]], opens the parliamentary sessions or nominates judges on the advice of the [[Council of State (Aleramia)|Council of State]]. The King has the right to be periodically briefed and consulted on government affairs.
| |
| | |
| The {{wpl|executive branch}} is formed by the [[Council of State (Aleramia)|Council of State]] ({{wpl|Gallo-Italic languages|Fiorentin:}} ''Consili de Stat''). It is a collegial body of twelve members elected in a joint seating of the [[Legislative Assembly (Aleramia)|Legislative Assembly]] elected from three different groupings. The Council of State is elected for five-year terms at the beginning of each legislature. The Council of State has a [[Chairman of the Council of State (Aleramia)|Chairman]] (''President''), elected by the Legislative Assembly every six months, on 1 April. The President's role is largely representative with no additional powers, serving as a ''{{wpl|primus inter pares}}''. The current chairman is [[Matté Ornagh]].
| |
| | |
| The [[Legislative Assembly (Aleramia)|Legislative Assembly]] ({{wpl|Gallo-Italic languages|Fiorentin:}} ''Assemblea Legislativa'') is the {{wpl|Bicameralism|bicameral}} {{wpl|legislature}} of Aleramia and is formed by both a {{wpl|lower house}}, the [[Grand Council (Aleramia)|Grand Council]] (''Gran Consili'') and the {{wpl|upper house}}, the [[Council of Provinces (Aleramia)|Council of Provinces]] (''Consili di Provincc''). The Grand Council is formed by 351 {{wpl|direct election|directly-elected}} members under a system of {{wpl|proportional representation}} every five years. The Council of Provinces is formed by 84 members (6 per province) who are elected under a system determined by each province. Both houses have identical powers and for a bill to pass it needs to receive the approval of both houses on an identical text. Bills typically originate from the Grand Council. The Presidents of the Grand Council and the Council of Provinces are [[Martina Gori]] and [[Filipp Bordon]], respectively.
| |
| | |
| The {{wpl|judicial branch}} is based on a particular variant of {{wpl|civil law|''ius commune''}}, known as ''Diritt uronian'', that merges {{wpl|Roman law|Fiorentine law}} with legal concepts taken from {{wpl|customary law}}, employing {{wpl|precedent}} to a much larger extent than other jurisdictions. At the federal level, the judicial system is formed by the [[Constitutional Court (Aleramia)|Constitutional Court]] (''Tribunal costituzional'') and the [[Senate (Aleramia)|''Senad'']], that acts as a {{wpl|court of last resort}}, examining whether the law was correctly applied in the contested decision ensuring the uniform application of federal law throughout the country. The judges of both courts are elected for 25-year terms in joint seatings of the Legislative Assembly.
| |
| | |
| === Administrative divisions ===
| |
| {{main|Provinces of Aleramia}}
| |
| The States of the Aleram is formed by 14 provinces. The provinces are {{wpl|federated state}}s, have a permanent constitutional status and a high degree of independence, with all matters not specifically reserved to the federal state being in the hands of the provinces. All 14 provinces are equal in status, with an equal representation of six seats in the {{wpl|upper house}}. Each province has its own constitution, and its own parliament, government, legal system, police, courts as well as its own internal organisation. The provinces are also responsible for {{wpl|healthcare}}, {{wpl|wefare}}, {{wpl|public education}} and {{wpl|taxation}} and also have the ability to conclude {{wpl|treaties}} with one another as well as foreign states.
