'''Grenesia''' ({{wp|Polish language|Grenesian}}: Ґрэнэзъя, [https://baltoslav.eu/lat/index.php?mova=en&j=ru&n=1 tr.] Grènèzya {{wp|Help:IPA/Polish|grɛnɛzja}}, officially the '''{{wp|Rzeczpospolita|Commonwealth}} of Grenesia''', is an insular country located in [[Marenesia]] on [[Eurth]]. It is divided into 14 provinces, covering an area of '''[AREA?]''' square kilometres ('''[AREA?]''' sq mi), and has mostly mediterranean or humid continental climate. Grenesia's capital and largest city is Karlitch. Other major cities include Lubogoshch, Gervazno, Mnikhovo, Turytch, Katoshóv and Byala Gran’.
==Etymology==
The name "Grenesia" was first used by [[salvia|Salvian]] cartographers in 1041, in reference to the island inhabited by the Yasic clan of Grenesians (Grènèsi), who inhabited the Drva river basin of present-day Drvanski region starting in the mid-6th century. In past the Grenesians referred to their nation as Królestvo Grènèske (Grenesian Kingdom), Zhèchpospolita Grènèska (Grenesian Commonwealth) or Kray Grènèski (Grenesian Land). The origin of the name ''Grenesians'' itself is disputed, however some historians claim that it derives from the Proto-Yasic word ''gorěti'' (to burn).
 
==History==
===Origin===
The earliest cases of human activity on Grenesian soil date back to 4th century BCE. Genetic and linguistic analysis show that both modern Grenesians and medieval rulers are related to Proto-Yasic tribes. Their first known settlements consisted of large huts and were walled with wooden palisade, some surrounded by a moat or built on islands. The Yasic peoples on Marenesia dealt not only with hunting and gathering, but also they fished and cultivated land. Warring tribes were eventually conquered and dominated by Grènèsi, often called 'the tribe of fire' or 'the people of burning', in late 5th century CE. Although the first known historical mention of a Grenesian ruler comes from year 1005, neither of them mentions his name.
 
===Popiel dynasty===
In 1285 CE duke Popiel, the first ruler of Grenesia known by name, was officially converted to Catholicism under pressures from [[Salvia]] in exchange for mutual truce between the Grenesian tribe the Imperium. According to 14th century chronicler Yan Kolbe, ''[...]the imperator himself supervises promotion of new faith. New temples are built in Orlovo and in many other settlements and houses of local belief are burned, deemed foul and impure''. Following the supposed murder of duke Popiel in 1289, his niece was crowned by Salvian emperor Devolante Fabrizi and took the name Yarovit I. He was made to strengthen the new official religion and to build not only an archbishopric in Orlovo , but also many parishes, churches, and monasteries, while many Grenesians who resisted conversion fled further south. Yarovit II the Conqueror managed to extend the borders of his realm to the west and to strenghten his influence.
In 1453, Grenesia fragmented into several smaller duchies when prince Mats'ko I the Shameless divided his land among his sons. In 1489, after a number of earlier unsuccessful attempts by regional rulers at uniting the Grenesian dukedoms, Yarovit III Karlitch (his name means "son of a dwarf" in Grenesian) from the Suvozhnan branch of the Popiel dynasty ascended the throne and became the first king of the reunified Grenesia. However, he had to issue a number of privileges for the knightshood in order to consolidate his power. Moreover, Orlovo was burned to the ground during the regional uprising in 1475, so Yarovit Karlitch was forced to move the capital to Bardzenets, which was renamed after him when he died in 1496.
===First Commonwealth===
Grenesia was developing as a feudal state, and the {{wp|Szlachta|nobility}} and the wealthy townsfolk became increasingly powerful. In July 1581, most of the legislative power was transferred from the monarch to the ''Zyazd'' (parliament). This event marked the official transformation of Grenesia from a kingdom to a republic, while it was actually governed by the oligarchy and the king. The head of the state was the monarch elected from the nobility, but the nation was ruled largely by the nobility itself, through a system of local assemblies with a central parliament. The {{wp|Warsaw Confederation|Karlitch Confederation}} (1644) guaranteed religious freedom for the Grenesian nobility and other people from privileged background. However, the peasants were still subject to severe limitations imposed on them by the nobility.
 
From the beginning of the 18th century, the nobles' democracy, suffering from internal disorder, gradually declined, thereby leaving the once powerful Commonwealth vulnerable to foreign intervention or internal turmoil. In 1783 Grenesia broke again due to peasant uprising initiated by Kzhesimir Skalski, which led to secession of the duchy of Izyera, as well as general civil unrest in villages, towns and cities all over Grenesia.
===Second Commonwealth===
In 1803 the Grenesian government structures overcame a major overhaul, allowing the proletariate to participate in democratic procedures and to be elected to ''Zyazd'' and to the Senate. In 1804 Izyera voluntarily went back under the realm of Commonwealth as an autonomic region. In 1834 the first political parties were established: People's Party, and the Elitists, respectively representing the interests of the poorest and of the nobility. However, selling and buying votes was a common practice. Moreover, peasants were often threatened by their masters not to vote and the state virtually kept its old feudal model. In 1845 a legislation regarding punishing of mistreating peasants was passed and state police was founded in 1851. The Great Zyazd convened by Yeremi III the Old in 1869 successfully adopted the November Constitution. However, this document, accused by detractors of harbouring revolutionary sympathies, generated strong opposition from the Commonwealth's nobles and conservatives. By the end of the 19th century, the Commonwealth made attempts to implement fundamental internal reforms; with the second half of the century bringing much improved economy, significant population growth, and far-reaching progress in the areas of industry, education, intellectual life, art, and evolution of the social and political system. In the beginning of 20th century newly elected king Mats'ko III renounced his royal title, sold his manor and declared himself the 'lifetime president'. In the first half of the century Grenesia saw its golden age in science, music, and literature. Education was made compulsory until the age of 18 in 1901 and the general populace became much more engaged in political life. In 1938 Grenesia was becoming politically unstable. Short-lived coalitions of different parties were forming and breaking apart, and the politicians were stigmatized with greed and corruption.
===Third Commonwealth===
The communist Karlitch Workers' Party, one of the largest and most influential parties of those times, was elected to the city council of the capital in 1942 and in 1946 it became the Grenesia's ruling party. Blazhèy Kamen’ski was made the new president, allegedly chosen in democratic elections, turned out to be closely affiliated wiith the hegemonic {{wp|Law_and_Justice|communist party}}. In 1947 he proclaimed the Third Commonwealth. His reign was notable for frequent breaking of the November Constitution, although the document was not oficially abolished. Initially, he announced to expropriate the nobility and dissolved the Senate, which, according to party backed press, had composed solely of wealthy and influential oligarchy. In 1949, he signed the [https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=pl&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fpl.m.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FUstawa_o_ustroju_s%C4%85d%C3%B3w_powszechnych_z_2019_roku act on the structure of common courts], and de facto made the High Court and the whole judiciary body fully dependant on him. In 1953 the 'people's president' introduced centrally planned economy, began to apply increasingly intrusive forms of propaganda, replaced State Police with his militia, and appointed secret police. In November 1961, Yędzhèy Khyzhètski, together with a total of 1830 troops, made am attempt to secede the area of Mnikhovo and Bogdushyn and proclaimed the Yędzhèy Khyzhètski's Free Republic. Its independence was announced on 29 November. However, it ceased to exist within nineteen days. On May 17 1990 a rebellion started by Stefan Bielak's Council for Independence, which broke out in Gervazno and later in other large cities. Nation-wide crisis, food shortage, and overall poor quality of life contributed to its success, and after two weeks of fighting the rebels were controlling major roads, train stations, and also the seaport in Karlitch. The regime, feeling powerless against the raging masses, decided to surrender on 3 April 1990. By the end of the year the liberal left New Era party was granted the majority of seats in the Parliament in result of first open democratic elections since 1946.
 
===Fourth Commonwealth===
A shock therapy programme, initiated in 1991, enabled the country to transform its socialist-style planned economy into a market economy. After the passage of the new Constitution on 7 January 1996, Stefan Bielak was elected for president in the following elections.
 
Most notably, there were numerous improvements in human rights, such as freedom of speech, internet freedom (no censorship), civil liberties (1st class) and political rights (1st class), as ranked by House of Freedom non-governmental organization.

==Politics==
===Government===
Grenesia is a direct democracy, with a president as a head of state, whose current constitution dates from 1996. The government structure centers on the Council of Ministers, led by a prime minister. The president is dependent neither on the Zyazd nor the Senate and treated as a separate legislative chamber. The president is elected by popular vote for life period, unless taken down by death, referendum or abdication. The current president is Stefan Bielak and the prime minister is Anna Kę̀dzyor.
 
Grenesian voters elect a tricameral parliament consisting of a 460-member lower house (Zyazd) and a 100-member Senate (Senat). The president is the elected to serve as a one-man legislative chamber and as the head of state. The politicians for Zyazd are elected from county councils under direct representation and the Senat is elected under the first-past-the-post method, with one senator being returned from each of the 100 constituencies.
The Zyazd is the lower house of the Grenesian parliament.
 
With the exception of ethnic minority parties, only candidates of political parties who receive at least 5% of the total national vote can enter the Zyazd. When sitting in joint session, members of the Zyazd and Senat form the National Assembly (the Zgromadzèniè Narodovè). The National Assembly is formed on three occasions: when a new president takes the oath of office; when an indictment against the President of the Republic is brought to the State Tribunal (Trybunal Stanu); and when a president's permanent incapacity to exercise his duties due to the state of his health is declared. To date only the first instance has occurred.
 
The judicial branch plays a vital role in decision-making processes. Its major institutions include the Supreme Court (Sąd Nayvyzhshy); the Supreme Administrative Court (Nachèl’ny Sąd Administratsyiny); the Constitutional Tribunal (Trybunal Konstytutsyiny); and the State Tribunal (Trybunal Stanu). On the approval of the Senat, the Zyazd also appoints the ombudsman or the Commissioner for Civil Rights Protection (Žèchnik Prav Obyvatèl’skikh) for a five-year term. The duty of the ombudsman is of guarding the observance and implementation of the rights and liberties of Grenesian citizens and residents, of the law and of principles of community life and social justice.
 
===Law===
The Constitution of Grenesia is the supreme law in modern Grenesia, and the Grenesian legal system is built upon the principle of civil rights, governed by the code of Civil Law. The first Grenesian legal act of its kind was implemented on 11 November 1869 by the Zyazd of the First Commonwealth of Grenesia, instituted as a Government Act (Grenesian: Ustava Zhądova). Most importantly it was applied in an attempt to fix major political shortcomings of the 'nobles democracy'.
 
The November Constitution introduced political equality between the noblility, townspeople and the peasants. It also guaranteed separation of Salvian Catholic Church from the government, while obligating to protect all cultivated faiths, including the native belief, from persecutions on religious background.
The Constitution was periodically abandoned following proclamation of the communist government in 1947 and the Kamen'ski's dictatorship ha no such legal act.
 
The current Constitution of Grenesia was adopted by National Assembly of Grenesia on 7 January 1996, which coincided with the ascension of Stefan Bielak to the presidental seat. The modern Grenesian Constitution, while restoring and expanding civil rights and political freedom, also introduced gender equality and was enriched with ammendments regarding to contemporary issues needing legal clarification. Currently, in Grenesia abortion is allowed only in special circumstances, such as when the woman's life or health is endangered by the continuation of pregnancy, when the pregnancy is a result of a criminal act, or when the fetus is seriously malformed. Homosexuality is legal, however gay marriages are not recognized as of 2019. Although hormone therapy is permitted, gender change is legally not recognized. Citizens are entitled to end their lives. Cannabis may be legally purchased, however, no drugs can be consumed in public places.
 
The Constitution guarantees a multi-party state, the freedom of religion, speech and assembly, and specifically casts off many Communist ideals to create a local '{{wp|free market economic system}}'. It also puts empasis on ecologically sound public policy and acknowledges the inviolabity of the home, the right for trade unions, whilst at the same time prohibiting practices of forced medical experimentation and torture.

===Military===
The Grenesian armed forces are defense oriented and primarly base on Navy and Air Force, nevertheless Land Forces and Special Forces are also fully active. The military is subordinate to the Minister for Defence. However, its commander-in-chief is the President of the Commonwealth.
The total size of Grenesian army is estimated at around 120,700 soldiers (2017). Its navy conducts operations such as maritime patrol, search and rescue for the waters under Grenesian sovereignity, as well as hydrographic measurements and research. The current position of the Grenesian Air Force is much the same; it routinely patrols the borders and surroundings of restricted areas, but otherwise has not actively engaged in combat.

==Culture==
The Grenesian culture was always closely connected with the traditional Grenesian religion, however gradual decrease of its influence has been observed both by cultural development over hundreds of years and by the artistic stagnation beginning in the fifties and ending in 1990. Modern Grenesian popular culture is an eclectic mix of different socio-cultural periods of the 20th century, and also attempts to reconstruct genres of various arts from the age of cultural recession.

===Cuisine===
Traditional Grenesian cuisine is largely based on livestock meat, especially pork, beef and chicken, however it also includes venison, such as pheasant or rabbit. Grenesia is renowned for a variety of breads, cereals and pseudocereals. Grenesian meals also use mushrooms, berries, and honey. Contemporary cuisine of Grenesia is also partly influenced by Salvian cuisine, starting with first cases of cultural exchanges between these two countries.
The main course usually includes a serving of meat, vegetables or sauerkraut, and sometimes served sweet with fruits, mead or sweet wine. The side dishes are usually potatoes or rice.
Fast food chains are unpopular with Grenesians who rather tend to favor small time privateely owned restauralts, however not without government subsidies for local eating places. The national alcoholic drinks are wine, mead and various kinds of vodkas, while one of the most popular soft drinks is bread kvass, which is said to be widely preferred over cola or other branded fizzy drinks.
===Sport===
Handball and volleyball are among the most popular sports in Grenesia. Other renowned disciplines include association football, tennis, track and field, motorcycle speedway, fencing, archery, shooting sports, and water sports - most notably swimming, sailing and rowing.
