The Kingdom of Caspiaa, most commonly known as Caspia or Caspiaa, is an archipelagic nation in the Coalition of Crown Albatross located in northwestern Euronia, sharing maritime borders with Zamastan, Ruskayn, and Baytonia. The climate is in general mild due to significant maritime influence. Caspia often has warm continental summers, being located in between the Olympic Ocean, the Tarin and Kasuum seas, and the vast Euronian landmass. The general climate and environment varies significantly from the south and north due to the vast latitudal difference and much of Caspia has reliably cooler and occassionally snowy winters. Southern Caspia is predominantly agricultural, while the north is heavily forested and includes the Taspirian Mountains.

Euronian peoples have inhabited Caspia since prehistoric times, emerging into history and constituting the sea peoples known as the Caspmen. An independent Caspian state emerged during the early 12th century. After the Black Plague in the middle of the 14th century killed about a third of the population, the Ruskaynian League threatened Caspia's culture, finances and languages. When Caspia became involved in regional wars, an expansion of its territories began and eventually the Caspian Empire was formed. This became one of the great powers of western Euronia until the late 16th century, when it was conquered by the Skith Empire. The nation regained independence in 1813, and remained strategically isolated from world events, not participating in foriegn wars and instead resorting to neutrality through economics. The last war in which Caspia was directly involved was in 1949-54, when Caspia joined the allies during the World War. Since then, Caspia has been at peace, maintaining an official policy of neutrality in foreign affairs. Caspia was formally neutral through late 20th/early 21st century tensions, albeit Caspia has since 2009 openly moved towards cooperation with the C.C.A. and regional defense treaties with Zamastan, Rio Palito, Ruskayn, and Quetana.

Caspia is a constitutional monarchy and a parliamentary democracy, with Legislative power vested in the 419-member unicameral legislature. It is a unitary state, currently divided into 32 counties and 96 municipalities. Caspia maintains a social welfare system that provides universal health care and tertiary education for its citizens. It has one of Iearth's highest per capita income and ranks very highly in quality of life, health, education, protection of civil liberties, economic competitiveness, income equality, gender equality, prosperity and human development.
