Keppland (Blostlandic: Käppland), officially the Kepplandic Free State (Blostlandic: Käppländska fristaten), is a sovereign state in eastern Asteria Inferior. It borders Arbolada to the southwest, Côte des Saints to the west, and Gapolania to the north. Geographically, Keppland lies between the Sierra Bianca Range in the west and the Lumine Ocean in the south and east. The nation's capital and largest city is Vajki, with other major cities including Gunnarstad, Åkapan, Lugnstad, and Karinshamn.
Keppland was occupied by Indigenous Asterians for at least 12,000 years before the arrival of Euclean explorers in 1514. The first permanent settlements were established by Blostlandic colonists in 1621, turning Keppland into a major producer of sugarcane, gold, and rubber. A Kepplandic national identity began to emerge in the late 18th century after the independence of Eldmark, culminating with the outbreak of the Kepplandic War of Independence in 1793. The First Kepplandic Republic successfully secured recognition of its independence from Blostland in 1801, but was quickly plunged into internal turmoil. A series of coups and revolts plagued the country until 1840, when the republic was overthrown in a coup d'état and replaced by the Kepplandic Empire under Emperor Mats I. The Kepplandic Empire expanded through eastern Asteria Inferior during the Great Kepplandic War, until it was defeated by the X Coalition in 1852. Despite its defeat, the Kepplandic Empire instituted many reforms that helped stabilize the country's internal situation, and the nation entered a long economic expansion under the Second Kepplandic Republic.
By the beginning of the 20th century, Keppland was among the wealthiest and most industrialized countries in the Asterias. Its decades-long grown came to an end with the Great Collapse in 1913, destabilizing the country and leading to the Kepplandic Civil War. The nation emerged from the conflict in 1924 under the Third Kepplandic Republic led by President X, who instituted populist reforms to help the working class and halt the rise of councilism. Keppland was drawn into the Great War on the side of the Grand Alliance in 19XX after the occupation of X by X, emerging victorious from the conflict in 1935. However, the war decimated the Kepplandic economy, which had still not fully recovered from the Great Collapse. X's inability to lead the economic recovery resulted in a Chistovodian-backed coup d'état in 1937, overthrowing the republic and establishing the Kepplandic Council Republic. Keppland's economy stabilized during the 1940s and 1950s due to substantial aid from the socialist world, with Chistovodia alone constituting more than half of the nation's international trade volume. However, the outbreak of the Great Asterian War in the 1960s caused Chistovodian economic assistance to evaporate, and the Kepplandic economy began to stagnate as a result. After an attempted transition to market socialism during the 1970s, the councilist state was overthrown in the X Revolution of 1979, leading to the restoration of democracy under the Fourth Kepplandic Republic.
Modern Keppland is a developed country, boasting a high-income economy that ranks highly in measures of human development, economic freedom, and standard of living. The nation is a regional leader in sociopolitical stability, with low perceived corruption and strong democratic institutions. Keppland is a member of the Community of Nations, International Council for Democracy, Asteria Inferior Common Market, and Organization of Asterian Nations, and is generally considered to be a middle power in the international community.
