'''Arkkonesia''', officially the '''Confederation of Arkkonesia''' or the '''Arkkonesian Confederation''', also referred to as the '''Northern Isles''' and various variation of such, is a country located in North-East Thaudia. Arkkonesia does not share a land border with any country, but the nearest countries to it are Tujovaan, Rypalönd, Amilagro, TBD, and Sauthar. Arkkonesia has 31 first-level administrative divisions, most of which are cantons, that have a combined area of [TBD] and a total population of over six million as of 2024. It is a federal elective monarchy (?), with the administrative capital located in Langheersberg, in the Free City of Langheersberg. Other major urban areas include Salsberg, Tishena, Niberg, and Akito. | |||
The first permanent settlement of modern Arkkonesian culture was founded in 418CE by Ínar Knoson, in what is now known as Grœn Bay City. For most of Arkkonesia’s history, it was divided into various small city-states, who would often work together in various regional councils. | |||
It was not until 1632 that the majority of mainland Arkkonesia was unified under one legally binding body, known as the Miðul Isle Confederation.

Arkkonesia, officially the Confederation of Arkkonesia or the Arkkonesian Confederation, also referred to as the Northern Isles and various variation of such, is a country located in North-East Thaudia. Arkkonesia does not share a land border with any country, but the nearest countries to it are Tujovaan, Rypalönd, Amilagro, TBD, and Sauthar. Arkkonesia has 31 first-level administrative divisions, most of which are cantons, that have a combined area of [TBD] and a total population of over six million as of 2024. It is a federal elective monarchy (?), with the administrative capital located in Langheersberg, in the Free City of Langheersberg. Other major urban areas include Salsberg, Tishena, Niberg, and Akito.
The first permanent settlement of modern Arkkonesian culture was founded in 418CE by Ínar Knoson, in what is now known as Grœn Bay City. For most of Arkkonesia’s history, it was divided into various small city-states, who would often work together in various regional councils.
It was not until 1632 that the majority of mainland Arkkonesia was unified under one legally binding body, known as the Miðul Isle Confederation. While politically one single entity, the former city-states now in the Miðul Confederation still retained significant power, and would occasionally have organised wars to display military power.
In 1676, the Miðul Confederation launched an expedition up north, where they found what is known today as the Norandish and Ingit people. They then launched a joint invasion of the area, subjugating the people and committing various violent acts, including slavery, an event which the Norandish and Ingit people still criticise the government for.
These regions, while being de-facto under control of the Miðul Confederation, were not officially apart of the confederation in the same standing as the other states until 1765, when the first act of confederation was signed. The act of confederation united many city states into larger states, known as cantons and defined many aspects of the government still in use today, and renamed the country to Arktonesia.
In 1869 the Arktonesian civil war broke out over a dispute of how much power cantons should wield, with the federalists wished for continual of the large amount of freedoms awarded to the cantons, while the unitarians wished for a more unitary government.
The civil war ended in a stalemate, with both sides compromising on laws over the course of 4 years, culminating in the second article of confederation, the constitution still used in Arkkonesia today. The new constitution was criticised for being biased towards to a unitary government, with the unitarians arguing that in order for Arkkonesia to prosper and compete with other nations in the modern age they would need a strong central government. The new constitution also protected the rights of linguistic minorities in the newly acquired cantons of [TBD - various island states], and established official cantons in those regions.
