'Satavia', or in it's native form 'Sátiva', a given name from the [[Muisca Peoples]], also refered to as the 'Muisca Tribe'. Post independence, the newly-elected government, lead by Sir [[Cecil Browning]], wishing to distance itself from the colonial name of the 'Hope Colony', and later, the 'Dominion of Hope', chose to adopt a new name. The previous name, 'Hope' came from the Hennish 'Hoop', derivating from the 'River Hope', or in Satavian 'Rivier Hoop'.

===Hennish Colonisation (Under Re-Construction)===
At some time around March 1677, the Hennish explorer and poet, [[Jan van Breyetenbach]], landed at the mouth of the River Hope. Van Breytenbach established the settlement of 'Hoopstad'. During September of that year, van Breytenbach was officially appointed 'Gouverneur van de Hoop Kolonie', or in Estmerish, 'Governor of the Hope Colony'. The colony was plagued by difficulty to begin with - a lack of sanitation in Hoopstad lead to an outbreak of {{wpl|Dysentery|Dysentery}} among the settlers. The colony also had trouble with the native population - up until 1679, when [[Chief Uk'anwa]] met with Jean de Flaissane, a colonist who arrived from [[Gaullica]] with the task of promoting Gaullica's interests in the colony, negotiated a treaty. The Treaty, often erinously refered to as the ''Treaty of Hoopstad'', although actually called the [[''Native-Flaissane Agreement'']], ended hostilites with natives for the next 150 years.

During the Hennish Administration of the Hoop Kolonie, unrest was common among the settlers, often caused by high taxes and [[Wikipedia:No_taxation_without_representation|little to no representation]]. The most infamous revolts included the [[Farmer Rebellion (1708)]] and the [[Ink Revolt (Satavia)]].
The Hennish colonists imported thousands of slaves from Bahia, and by 1745 there were an estimated 30,000 colonists and a further 10,000 slaves, taken from the coast of Bahia. Compact housing and appauling conditions meant that outbreaks of diseases were commonplace, and would lead to the deaths of hundreds of slaves. The lack of adequate medication meant that many slaves contracted diseases that in practice were curable, but due to the lack of doctors willing to administer what little medication they had to unpaying slaves. This lead the Hoop Kolonie to be known as the 'Slave Abattoir'.
The colony was centered around [[Hopetown|Hoopstad]], and the wider province of [[Hope Provincie|Hoop Provincie]]. The [[Satavia#Governor|Governor]] was the representitive of the Monarch in the colony, whilst absoloute power was appointed to the governor, and the Mayor of Hoop Povincie.
During Hennish control, settler's rarely entered the interior. This was due to a fear of upsetting the natives, as agreed by the ''Native-Flaissane Agreement''.

Hennish control over the Hoop Kolonie ended following the Estmerish-Hennish war of 1747, which saw the transfer of the colony over to Estmere.

Satavia has a [[Wikipedia:Left-right political spectrum|Left-Right]] multi-party system. Since the [[2016 General Election]], the biggest parties in the [[Volksrechtbank]] are the center-right [[Unity Coalition]], who itself did not achieve a majority of 100 seats, so formed a coalition with the [[Centraal (Satavia)]] party, the second largest party. Since 2017, the coalition has attempted on mulitple occasions to pass a law, known as the [[Electoral Reform Act (Satavia)]], which would allow for the creation of up to 150 more seats. This has been blocked by the remaining parties on mulitple occasions.
