Roqoo, formally the United Realm of Roqoo (Roquanian: Roqoon yhdistynyt alue), is a sovereign island nation spanning the central part of Kiteton Island (Roquanian: Kitetoninsaari), the largest island in Marenesia. Bounded by the Strait of Sicani (Roquanian: Sikoonin salmi) to the north and the Bight of Marenai (Roquanian: Marenaien lahti) to the south. As an isolated nation, Roqoo only shares maritime borders to the north with the Divine Republic of the Holy Catholic Empire across the Strait of Sicani and to the south with the Dominion of Kōri-Chi and Workers' Republic of Mevraq beyond the Bight of Marenai. Roqoo's only land borders are formed by natural geography, such as Nuabodante Mountains and the Kymi River (Roquanian: Kymijoki) in the west and the Jarvi valley in the east.
Roqoo has developed from a close-knit and communal population to a nation benefiting from a strong, heavily regulated economy through which environmentally conscious private and national industries operate. Roqoo is a unitary theocractic elective monarchy ruled by the religious head of state Candar, Jalo Hanninen.
