'''Trewince''', officially the '''Kingdom of Trewince''', is a country located in eastern [[Abos]]. Excluding the city-states, Trewince is the smallest of the [[Sexish Countries]] by area, economic size, and population. Trewince is bordered by [[Fluvannia]] to the east, [[Ketha]] to the south, and [[Suder]] to the west. The country is landlocked, with Ketha cutting off access to the sea from Trewince. The official language is {{wp|Scots language|Sexish}}, though signifigant minorities of {{wp|Northumbrian Dialect|Trewinter}}, {{wp|Low German|West Bergweiser}}, [[Fluvan Language|Fluvan]], and {{wp|Cumbrian Dialect|Cummese}} speakers. These four languages are recognized national languages, with speakers of these languages having the right to receive government services, be educated, and stand for office in their languages. The capital of the country is ''de jure'' [[Auldton]], which is also the capital of Ketha and is the current residence of the [[Monarch of Trewince|monarch]], currently [[Albert IV of Trewince|Albert IV]]. The largest city and ''de facto'' capital is [[Abdor]].
'''Ketha''', officially the '''Free Republic of Ketha''', is a country located in eastern [[Abos]]. It is the fourth most populous of the [[Sexish Countries]] and fifth largest by area. It is bordered by [[Trewince]] to the north, [[Suder]] to the west, [[Fluvannia]] to the east, and the coastline of the [[Achrinian Ocean]] to the south. The official language is {{wp|Scots language|Sexish}} with minorities of various languages present, especially in urban areas. [[Fluvan Language|Fluvan]] and {{wp|Northumbrian Dialect|Trewinter}} are recognized as minority languages with local governments allowed to operate in these languages. Signifigant minorities of foreign workers, primarily [[Buhyeos|Buhyeo]] from [[Toykisha]] have immigrated to the country in the past several decades. The capital of the country is [[Auldton]] but the largest city is [[Fort Hope]].  


Trewince is of unknown etymological origin, though linguists believe it originates from {{wp|Early Scots|Old Sexish}}. Trewince was a relatively minor kingdom and minor player in the region, generally being influenced by Fluvannia, Ketha, or Suder. In 1670, Trewince became a part of Ketha-Trewince through a series of marriages, culminating in the {{wp|Personal union|personal union}} of the two countries under [[George III of Ketha-Trewince|George III]]. Ketha-Trewince would later become one of the major constituent kingdom of the [[Union of the Seven Crowns|Sexish Kingdom]]. When the Kingdom [[Dissolution of the Sexish Kingdom#Ketha-Trewince|dissolved]] in 1916, Ketha-Trewince continued as a monarchy. In 1925, a [[1925 Ketha-Trewince Referendum|referendum]] to retain or abolish the monarchy saw a clear divide between former Trewince and former Ketha. After violent riots, Trewince split off of Ketha-Trewince. Despite no longer controlling the city of Auldton, the monarchy of Trewince, and therefore the Trewincer state, continues to claim the country as the seat of government. This makes Trewince the only country on the planet that does not share its head of state with another country, yet has its head of state living outside of the country. While this relationship is no longer hostile, the annual and ceremonial [[Battle of Auldton]] takes place every year.
Ketha is of unknown etymological origin, though it is believed to originate from {{wp|Old English|Old Fluvan}} or {{wp|Early Scots|Old Sexish}}. The country was a middling power in the region, often overpowered by its neighbors but powerful enough to maintain independence. Through a series of strategic marriages, Ketha annexed several Trewinter kingdoms into [[Ketha-Trewince]] under the reign of [[George III of Ketha-Trewince|George III]]. The union of Ketha-Trewince became a major constituent kingdom of the [[Union of the Seven Crowns]], and was the founding state after [[Erik the Great of Sexland|Erik the Great]] united the various kingdoms under his rule. When the Kingdom [[Dissolution of the Sexish Kingdom#Ketha-Trewince|dissolved]] in 1916, Ketha-Trewince continued as a monarchy. In 1925, a [[1925 Ketha-Trewince Referendum|referendum]] to retain or abolish the monarchy saw a clear divide between former Trewince and former Ketha. After violent riots, Trewince split off of Ketha-Trewince. Ketha would abolish the monarchy and [[Battle of Auldton (1926)|attempt to seize the monarch's palace]] but failed. From 1937 until 1966 Ketha would be under ''de facto'' military rule, though the country would democratize in 1966 and reestablish free and fair elections. Along with the other Sexish Countries, Ketha would intervene in the [[Third Great War]].


With a population of 2.4 million people and covering an area of 27,694 square kilometers, Trewince is a relatively small and densely populated state, with over 87 people per square kilometer. Its economy is primarily built off of tourism, the service sector, and financial sectors, with several large firms being headquartered in Trewince to take advantage of the generous tax incentives. The majority of the population are Sexish speakers, at 72.4%. The vast majority of the remaining population is made up of other Sexish languages. Demographers believe several ethnic minorities, especially Cummese and Trewinters, are relatively underrepresented, having integrated into the greater Sexish-speaking society. While Sexish is the langauge of the government and militaries, minority languages have a right to receive services in their native languages.
With a population of roughly 11.2 million and covering 130,967 square kilometers, Ketha has a middling population density, at 85.5 people per square kilometer. Its economy is primarily built off of tourism, trade, services, and the financial sector. The country is a federal parliamentary republic, with [[Regions of Ketha|regions]] being the primary administrative unit. Ketha is a member of the [[Sexish Union]] and [[Global Community]].
 
Trewince is a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy. The country's prime administrative division is the municipality. Under Ketha-Trewince, these municipalities had considerable power and autonomy. This autonomy has primarily been ceded back to the central government in the decades since. While conflicts are, difficulties over Catholicism and Protestantism are very common in Trewince and many pundits have theorized that the country is effectively self segregating down religious lines. Trewince is a member of the [[Sexish Union]] and [[Global Community]].

Ketha, officially the Free Republic of Ketha, is a country located in eastern Abos. It is the fourth most populous of the Sexish Countries and fifth largest by area. It is bordered by Trewince to the north, Suder to the west, Fluvannia to the east, and the coastline of the Achrinian Ocean to the south. The official language is Sexish with minorities of various languages present, especially in urban areas. Fluvan and Trewinter are recognized as minority languages with local governments allowed to operate in these languages. Signifigant minorities of foreign workers, primarily Buhyeo from Toykisha have immigrated to the country in the past several decades. The capital of the country is Auldton but the largest city is Fort Hope.

Ketha is of unknown etymological origin, though it is believed to originate from Old Fluvan or Old Sexish. The country was a middling power in the region, often overpowered by its neighbors but powerful enough to maintain independence. Through a series of strategic marriages, Ketha annexed several Trewinter kingdoms into Ketha-Trewince under the reign of George III. The union of Ketha-Trewince became a major constituent kingdom of the Union of the Seven Crowns, and was the founding state after Erik the Great united the various kingdoms under his rule. When the Kingdom dissolved in 1916, Ketha-Trewince continued as a monarchy. In 1925, a referendum to retain or abolish the monarchy saw a clear divide between former Trewince and former Ketha. After violent riots, Trewince split off of Ketha-Trewince. Ketha would abolish the monarchy and attempt to seize the monarch's palace but failed. From 1937 until 1966 Ketha would be under de facto military rule, though the country would democratize in 1966 and reestablish free and fair elections. Along with the other Sexish Countries, Ketha would intervene in the Third Great War.

With a population of roughly 11.2 million and covering 130,967 square kilometers, Ketha has a middling population density, at 85.5 people per square kilometer. Its economy is primarily built off of tourism, trade, services, and the financial sector. The country is a federal parliamentary republic, with regions being the primary administrative unit. Ketha is a member of the Sexish Union and Global Community.
