Auvernia, officially the Federation of Auvernia (Auvernian; Fédération d'Auvernia), is a sovereign nation located in northern Cybella. Auvernia is bordered by the United Provinces to her north, the !Netherlands to her North-east, Altenland, Hercynia and the Holy Aventine Empire to her East and !Iberian States to her south. The population of the country is largely suburban and distributed throughout its vast lands. The most populous areas are the Centre-Auvernie followed by Maritimie and Sud-Ouest, the center of Auvernia is less densely populated with a few industrial centers scattered throughout the various mountainous, forested and plains regions. Aside from these industrial centers, much of central and eastern Auvernia is rural and marked by large national parks and historic sites. Auvernia is a constitutional federal republic with Nanterre serving as its capital and largest city. Nanterre doubles as the nation's economic hub and cultural and commercial centre. Roeselle has a separation of powers between its Executive, Judicial and Legislative branches, and is a Catholic state based upon the principles of popular sovereignty, republicanism, and national unionism. | Auvernia, officially the Federation of Auvernia (Auvernian; Fédération d'Auvernia), is a sovereign nation located in northern Cybella.

Auvernia exists in what had been several Aventine provinces prior to the age of Migration and the arrival of the Auvernian tribesmen in the 700s AD. Administered as an imperial province of the Aventine Empire, Auvernia remained an integral province until the Auvernian tribes settled the region overrunning the Aventine armies and over the centuries carving out an independent dominion. The nation formally was founded by King of the Auvernes Conrad Savian in 737 AD. Over the centuries after its founding, the Auvernian Kingdom expanded many times in size, growing to become one of the largest Cybellan and world powers. Later, in 1791, the First Auvernian Revolution would begin ending in the execution of the royal family and proclamation of the First Auvernian Republic. However, the first republic was highly unstable and eventually saw the rise of famed general and lawyer Pierre Clement who in 1799 declared himself emperor of Auvernia in the Senate in a famous event known as the Ascension of Pierre Clement. As Emperor Pierre would transform the legal and military system for Auvernia and lead the nation into the Clementine Wars, most notably culminating in the Auvernian-Aventine wars which would see the decline of Aventine dominance in Western Cybella. After Pierre's death, his son Charles Clement reigned as a pragmatic administrator until his untimely death in 1822. Facing a disputed succession, the country fell into turmoil and saw foreign interventions in political affairs leading to the restoration of the old royal family. Through the 19th century, the Kingdom of Auvernia struggled to suppress several Republican, Clementist and, later, Communist revolts in the country. Despite this, the Kingdom remained one of the foremost geo-political forces with the largest standing navy in the world. This ended after the disastrous Great War which ended in an effective stalemate. The social and economic turmoil which followed in the early 1920s led to the Second Auvernian Revolution in 1925. The Revolution was composed of a united front of workers militias and veterans who no longer recognized the legitimacy of the monarchy nor the ability of the current government to care for the people. The Revolution was swift, but the Provisional government was extremely divided, appointing a member of the Socialist International Front as its head of state despite broad right wing opposition. The result was the Red Terror which saw a second purge of the Royal Family and of nobility and as a result, the Auvernian Civil War in which several formerly Royalist and Revolutionary forces merge into the United National Front which was a Conservative Syndicalist militiant organization. Mass defections from the military and the rise of conservative workers militias in the South and West allowed led to a protracted nearly three year civil war. In the last few months, the Socialist forces lines began to collapse under stress as the state had become a pariah in Cybella facing embargoes and enforced isolation, the United National Front took Nanterre and Marshal Anton Rousseau who declared a new provisional government known as the Auvernian State. For nearly a year he effectively served as Head of State and Government before announcing elections on March 15th of 1930. In the first election the National Republican party won making Charles Maçay President.

Auvernia, officially the Federation of Auvernia (Auvernian; Fédération d'Auvernia), is a sovereign nation located in northern Cybella. Auvernia is bordered by the United Provinces to her north, the !Netherlands to her North-east, Altenland, Hercynia and the Holy Aventine Empire to her East and !Iberian States to her south.

Aside from these industrial centers, much of central and eastern Auvernia is rural and marked by large national parks and historic sites. Auvernia is a constitutional federal republic with Nanterre serving as its capital and largest city. Nanterre doubles as the nation's economic hub and cultural and commercial centre. Roeselle has a separation of powers between its Executive, Judicial and Legislative branches, and is a Catholic state based upon the principles of popular sovereignty, republicanism, and national unionism.

Etymology
Auvernia takes its name from the Ancient Auvernian Tribes which settled the region in the 8th Century AD. The tribes, which had migrated into the region from what is now the South-Western portion of Altenland, were named the Auvernians by the Aventine Empire after their legendary warrior-king Auvernac.
