'''Norvia''' is a sovereign country located off the centre-northeast Thuadia. The Norvish Mainland is located above Greater Bakyernn State and Grimburg Island just few kilometres north of East Othinia. The country's temperate climate and large forest area, including the Calisbrooke range, owe much to Norvish natural parks & trails. The Unitary Republic includes the mainland, Grimburg territorial isles, Dunsmouth island, and many smaller outpost islands. Norvia share contigents of border with several nation, particulary Bakyernn to the south who separated by highly mountainous region, and overseas territory of Hanieflann to the north. Otherwise, Norvia located ashore east Rimidic Atlantic Ocean, is considered a developed country by giving it the one of the stable GDPs and well educated citizen. The total area by land is XXXX square km (XXX sq mi).
'''Norvia''', officially the '''State of Norvia''', is a [[States of Delkora|constituent state]] of [[Delkora]]. It is the third smallest state by both area and population. Its capital and largest city is Grafholmen.


The country has its roots in Bakyern hegemony of the region during the 17th century. The declaration for separation war (1810) was followed by an extended period of conflict that lasted until 1837, culminating in the country's reorganization as an independent unitary state. The country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of immigration, mainly Njordrlann and Sventsan, slowly reshaping its cultural and demographic outlook; almost 60% of the population has full or partial Illanean ancestry.
==Geography==
Located in southern Delkora, Norvia is bordered by [[Cybria]] to the north, [[Vassengård]] to the west, and [[Delliria]] and [[Megelan]] to the south. The state is characterized by mostly flat, arable land. The capital, Grafholmen, is located in the central part of the state.


The population of Norvia counted as 16.5 million (2022), with Norvish took up the majority in ethnicity. A developed country, Norvinia ranks highly in international comparisons of national performance, such as well-adjusted tax system, education, public utilities, and economic freedom. Country underwent major economic changes during the 1980s, which transformed it from a protectionist to a liberalised free-trade economy. The service sector dominates the national economy, followed by silver manufacturing and forestry.
==Demographics==
Norvia has a population of 9,582,742 as of the 2020 Federal Census. It is relatively homogeneous compared to other states, but has some linguistic diversity, particularly in the south, where there are notable {{wp|Romansch language|Romansch}} and {{wp|French language|French}} speaking communities.    


== Etymology ==
==Economy==
In Common language, the name "'''Norvinia/Norvia'''" comes from the ancient tornemmy language Nordynnea; means "(blessed) of land, by the angel". The name Norvia was first originated during aristoractic regime, given by his majesty, King Ruther Leofwine. At the time, many were confounded with the term. After several petty disagreement, the word "'''Norvia'''" is settled for the realm, though either name can be used together. The post-independent included the widely use of the name "'''Republic of Norvia'''" in civil matters. The term "Norvo" was also commonly used..
The state is a major agricultural producer, with over 90% of its land devoted to that purpose. Norvia's share of national GDP amounts to 8.1%.

==Government and politics==
Politics in Norvia have been characterized by agrarian and populist tendencies. The [[Conservative Party (Delkora)|Conservative]], [[Liberal Party (Delkora)|Liberal]], and [[List of political parties in Delkora|Farmers' Alliance]] parties have generally been dominant. [[National Labor]] has a strong base of support in Grafholmen. 


===Origins===
The current first minister of Norvia is [[Elin Albrechtsen]], a member of the [[Liberal Party (Delkora)|Liberal Party]]. The state legislature is the 75 member Norvish House of Delegates. The Constitutional Court of Norvia is the highest judicial authority under state law, responsible for interpreting the state Constitution.
Thuadia is one of the first major continent settled by humans. As time goes by, radiocarbon dating, evidence of deforestation and mitochondrial DNA variability within early populations suggest that the indigenous ancestors of the native norvish were nomadic hunters of thuadian germanic group and indigenous settlers far from Pryborne to Promantia who migrated over the Norrteric sea and Klaue bay into Norvia probably during the last glacial period (11,500–30,000 years ago).


The remains of dugout boats have been found at excavations in waterlogged environments, where wood is preserved. Many of the boats have been excavated by divers at underwater settlements or found during peat-digging, these boats resembled what we now know as canoes, and most were made with the hollowed out trunk of a big tree with improvised use of logs, clay, and leaves. Large group of settlers migrated to east presumeably due to cold climate, now known as Grimburg Island, where they developed their distinct tonnermy culture.

By then the norvish region was known little until it was visited by numerous Baks and Gabriells merchants. They traded modern food, metal tools, weapons, and other goods for timber, artefacts, and water. From the late 9th century, few self-proclaimed purple blood missionaries began to proclaim the Norvia Aristocrat, eventually integrating and converting some of the population with cultural convergence and communality.
[[Category:Delkora]]
===Kingdom & Aristocracy - 11th Century===
In late 11th century, Ruther Leofwine, after years of unifying the people, managed to capture the large town of Ashborne, and established the Norvo Kingdom. During his long reign, Ruther provided the poorest farmers with basic medical aid, which some say led to the birth of welfare. Norvo, becoming informally known as Norvia, advanced and improved for more than 500 long years, but that would not last.
In 1620 Rumburg declared war on Norvo to get its riches, so that the former could rebuild itself from the mess of the War of the Dying Orcids. At first, things went very badly for Norvia, with many cities being captured. Then, Eonarius succeeded his father as King, and allied himself with The Sventsan, who at the time, were also fighting against Baks. He married the Queen Lenna, starting a union that would be known as the Norvo-Sventsan Commonwealth. When Lenna died in 1703, Sventsan left the war, this of course was a huge blow to Norvia capabilities as the following years would see a decline in power. After many more years of bloody fighting, the 2 nations signed an armistice in 1710, with Bakyernn winning the war, taking over the country and sets the official claim of authority over Norvia
===Colonial Peried & Separation - 1710 to 1827===
Norvinia was administered as part of the Baks territory on June 1711. Civilians armed conflict began between the colonial government and Norvish with the Wrengate Affray over land and disagreements over the autonomy. These conflicts, mainly in the western Harthorne, saw thousands of imperial troops come to the region and massacred hundreds of civil populace, this became known as the Red-Water conflict. Following these armed conflicts, large amounts of southeastern Norvish was confiscated by the harsh Bakyernnian demands of no dissent policy.
 
In 1799, resentment towards the Baks authority over raiding and burning the city of Lorieth - the second most important cities in the province fuelled massive support for rebellion. In the decades preceding the war, Norvish became increasingly discontented with the rule. A major concern involved the forbiddance for mutual education and increased taxation imposed. The first separatist movement initially articulated by Duke Millius of Ashborne who wanted to achieve power by gathering up resistance movement across the city. This eventually developed into an overarching controversy among Baks aristocrat themselves who were against the rebels. Religious resistance, on the other hand, came with the imposition of an ecclesiastical hierarchy for all of the Baks territories. This created resistance in the eastern provinces, which had already embraced secularism.
 
On April 1810 under the leadership of the exiled Duke Millius, the Norvia separatist continued their resistance. They eventually were able to oust the blue-coat armies, and in 1837 they reestablished the Kingdom of Norvia with King Millius coronation. The war continued in other areas, although the heartland of the country was no longer threatened.
