The Republid of Antari or Antari is a country in Vinya, Septentrion. Its 22 counties extend from the southwestern coast of the Lom lake to its western border with Aill, being bordered on the south by Lom. The capital city of Antari is Sarawa, which is located on the coast of the Lom lake, and its other major cities are Kudra and Saptama.
Antarian-speaking people have inhabited Antari for more than 4,000 years, believed to have diverged from the Maverico-Casaterran group about 4000 BCE in the Neolithic period, but the Antarian cultural area was not limited to modern Antari. Writing was introduced to Antari from the Kingdom of Reynes around 700 BCE when Antari was primarily inhabited by Antarian-speaking pastoralists. Cities appeared around the same time, and the Old Antarian Kingdom, whose founding remains legendary, was ruled from Saptama until the start of the Common Era. The New Antarian Kingdom encompassed only parts of the Old Kingdom but lasted over 1,000 years. In 1758, Antari was annexed to the Anglian crown and became a colony. In 1879, Antari became an autonomous part of the Anglian Empire, but it only acquired control over defence and foreign relations in 1951. Full independence occurred in 1955 in a relatively peaceful process.
Antari is a parliamentary republic, with a ceremonial president as head of state and a prime minister who, with the Cabinet, holds executive power. The legislature of Antari is bicameral, consisting of the Legislative Council and the House of Assembly. The Legislative Council, formerly appointed, has been indirectly elected since 1981, while the House of Assembly is directly elected by the electorate. The legal system of Antari is based on the Anglian common law and is administered by the Supreme Court, which is a court of first instance, and the Court of Appeal, which is the court of last resort after the Legislative Council's jurisdiction over the it was abolished in 1960.
Etymology
It is usually thought that the word Antari, which is antarī in the Antarian language, contains the Proto-Maverico-Casaterran root *h₂ent-, which means "front". The "front" may be linked to the front side or south side of the mountain range that dominates Antari today. The element -ar- has no satisfactory explanation, but the -i suffix is securely associated with the i-stem derivation, which is commonly used for proper names of countries and people.
