'''Eskavia''' ({{wp|Norwegian language|Waldish}}: ''Eskland'', [[Eskavian language|Eskavian]]: ''Eskävisik''), officially the '''Federated States of Eskavia''' ({{wp|Norwegian language|Waldish}}: ''Forbundsstatene Eskland'', [[Eskavian language|Eskavian]]: ''Eskävisikut Häkilnu''), is a {{wp|Sovereign state|sovereign state}} in [[Elia Australis]]. It lies between the [[Medan Ocean]] to the west, [[TBA]] to the northwest, [[TBA]] to the northeast, the [[Alconian Ocean]] to the west, and the [[X Ocean]] to the south. Eskavia's capital is [[Alusit]] and its largest city is [[Mariesfjord]]. Other major cities include [[Fossenvik]], [[Sankt Halvard]], and [[Kalonak]]. With a population of more than 137 million and a total area of XXX,XXX square kilometers, Eskavia is the Xth most populous and Xth largest nation in the [[Teleon|world]].


'''Waldrich''' ({{wp|Norwegian language|Waldish}}: ᚡᛆᛚᛚᛂᚱᛁᚴᛂ, ''Vallerike''), officially the '''Waldish Confederation''' ({{wp|Norwegian language|Waldish}}: ᚡᛆᛚᛚᛋᚴ᛬ᚠᚮᚱᛒᚢᚿᛑ, ''Vallsk Forbund''), is a {{wp|Sovereign state|sovereign state}} on the [[Svalland]]ic island of [[X]] in northern [[!Europe]].  It lies between the [[X Ocean]] to the north, the [[X Ocean]] to the east, and the [[X Sea]] to the southwest. The nation shares a land border with [[Valmut]] to the southeast, and a maritime border with to the west.  [[Alsvik]] is Waldrich's capital and largest city, with other major cities including [[Hellnafjord]], [[Strandhavn]], [[Kongsheim]], and [[Hovberg]].  With a population of approximately 61 million and a total area of 628,494 square kilometers, Waldrich is the Xth most populous and Xth largest nation in Teleon.
Humans have inhabited Eskavia for at least 12,000 years. The first [[Calesia]]n explorers arrived in 1510, after which both [[Falland]] and [[Waldrich]] established colonies in the region. In 1718, Waldrich annexed [[Fallish Eskavia]] as a consequence of the [[Waldish–Fallish War (1712–1718)|Waldish–Fallish War]] and consolidated the region under its control. Independence movements began to gain traction following the [[Revolution of Nations]] in [[Elia Borealis]], culminating in the failed [[Nybyggerkrigen]] of 1803. The movement began to recover in the 1860s, when the [[First Cuthish War]] severely weakened Walrich's ability to administer its Elian colonies. In 1868, a [[Eskavian Revolutions|revolutionary wave]] swept through [[Waldish Eskavia]] and ultimately brought an end to Waldish rule in continental Elia Australis. Frequent [[Eskavian Border Wars|border wars]] between the newly independent polities prevented the former colonies from taking steps towards [[Unification of Eskavia|unification]] until 1887, when Waldrich attempted to [[Hisuka War|militarily repatriate]] the [[Free State of Hisuka|Hisuka]] peninsula. The war prompted the creation of the [[West Eskavian Confederation]], a defensive alliance between several of the region's most powerful states. In 1903, the Confederation [[Lapik War|invaded]] the Waldish-held [[Lapik Islands]] in support of a [[Lapik Rebellion|nationalist rebellion]]. In the war's aftermath, the Confederation was [[Acts of Federation|consolidated]] into a federal state and reorganized as the Federated States of Eskavia.


Humans first settled Waldrich between the 10th and 11th centuries BC, at the end of the {{wp|Last Glacial Period|last ice age}}.  During the early middle ages, the {{wp|Germanic peoples|Waldic tribes}} inhabiting the region began to organize into several {{wp|Petty kingdom|petty kingdoms}}.  In 759, [[X]] of the [[Kingdom of X]] unified many of these kingdoms under the [[Waldian Empire]], which ruled most of Svalland and northern !Europe at its territorial peak in the 9th century.  The empire fragmented in 1031, and control over Waldrich passed to the successor state of [[North Waldia]].  The [[!Reformation]] of the 16th century divided the realm along religious lines, with the nobles of the southern kingdoms converting to [[!Protestantism]] in defiance of the [[Waldic Catholic Church]]. Tensions between the !Catholic north and !Protestant south culminated with the [[X War]], resulting in the dissolution of North Waldia in 1584.  The southern kingdoms unified under the [[Valmut|Kingdom of Valmut]], while the northern kingdoms established the [[Old Waldish Confederacy]] as a successor to North Waldia.  Initially intended as a defensive alliance between independent kingdoms, the Confederacy consolidated into a [[Waldrich as a federal state|federal state]] in 1821 as a consequence of the [[X War]]. Waldrich emerged as a {{wp|Great power|great power}} in !Europe during the mid-19th century under the rule of [[Foresitter of Waldrich|Foresitter]] [[Olaf V]], who reformed the armies of the Confederation's constituent states into a unified and modern fighting force.  Olaf also oversaw the industrialization of the nation's economy, which was among the wealthiest in the world by the end of his reign in 1860.  Olaf's successor, [[Karl II]], introduced liberalizing reforms after the [[Waldish Revolution]] of 1866, resulting in the end of {{wp|Absolutism|absolutism}} and the ratification of a [[Constitution of Waldrich|democratic constitution]].
Eskavia fought several further [[Eskavian Wars of Unification|wars of conquest]] during the early 20th century to unify the historic Eskavian territories, culminating with the [[Onutälpi Annexation Act|annexation]] of [[Onutälpi]] in 1911. During the [[Great War (Teleon)|Great War]], Eskavia initially remained neutral but joined the [[Transmedan Powers]] after the [[Nadauro|Nadauran]] [[Terrafirma campaign|invasion]] of [[Terrafirma]]. The conflict established Eskavia as a {{wp|Regional power|regional power}} in Elia Australis and paved the way for a major [[Post–Great War economic expansion in Eskavia|economic expansion]] in the post-war era. In the 1950s, Eskavia and Nadauro fought a brief and decisive [[Twenty Day War|war]] against neighboring [[X]] which solidified the former two nations as the leading military powers on the continent. Since the end of the 20th century, relations with Nadauro have begun to deteriorate as Eskavia has adopted an increasingly aggressive foreign policy stance.

Eskavia (Waldish: Eskland, Eskavian: Eskävisik), officially the Federated States of Eskavia (Waldish: Forbundsstatene Eskland, Eskavian: Eskävisikut Häkilnu), is a sovereign state in Elia Australis. It lies between the Medan Ocean to the west, TBA to the northwest, TBA to the northeast, the Alconian Ocean to the west, and the X Ocean to the south. Eskavia's capital is Alusit and its largest city is Mariesfjord. Other major cities include Fossenvik, Sankt Halvard, and Kalonak. With a population of more than 137 million and a total area of XXX,XXX square kilometers, Eskavia is the Xth most populous and Xth largest nation in the world.

Humans have inhabited Eskavia for at least 12,000 years. The first Calesian explorers arrived in 1510, after which both Falland and Waldrich established colonies in the region. In 1718, Waldrich annexed Fallish Eskavia as a consequence of the Waldish–Fallish War and consolidated the region under its control. Independence movements began to gain traction following the Revolution of Nations in Elia Borealis, culminating in the failed Nybyggerkrigen of 1803. The movement began to recover in the 1860s, when the First Cuthish War severely weakened Walrich's ability to administer its Elian colonies. In 1868, a revolutionary wave swept through Waldish Eskavia and ultimately brought an end to Waldish rule in continental Elia Australis. Frequent border wars between the newly independent polities prevented the former colonies from taking steps towards unification until 1887, when Waldrich attempted to militarily repatriate the Hisuka peninsula. The war prompted the creation of the West Eskavian Confederation, a defensive alliance between several of the region's most powerful states. In 1903, the Confederation invaded the Waldish-held Lapik Islands in support of a nationalist rebellion. In the war's aftermath, the Confederation was consolidated into a federal state and reorganized as the Federated States of Eskavia.

Eskavia fought several further wars of conquest during the early 20th century to unify the historic Eskavian territories, culminating with the annexation of Onutälpi in 1911. During the Great War, Eskavia initially remained neutral but joined the Transmedan Powers after the Nadauran invasion of Terrafirma. The conflict established Eskavia as a regional power in Elia Australis and paved the way for a major economic expansion in the post-war era. In the 1950s, Eskavia and Nadauro fought a brief and decisive war against neighboring X which solidified the former two nations as the leading military powers on the continent. Since the end of the 20th century, relations with Nadauro have begun to deteriorate as Eskavia has adopted an increasingly aggressive foreign policy stance.

Eskavia is categorized as both a regional power and a middle power, and is sometimes considered to be an emerging great power. It is a developed country that ranks highly in measures of quality of life, health, education, and economic freedom. It is a high-income economy which is the second-largest economy on the continent by total nominal GDP. Eskavia is generally considered to be among the most mature liberal democracies in Elia Australis, with strong protections for civil liberties and high political stability. Eskavia possesses the Xth largest military force and Xth highest defense budget in the world, and is in the process of developing a blue-water navy with global power projection capabilities. The nation is a founding member of the United Congress, TBA, TBA, and TBA.
