'''Gothica''', both officially and formally referred to as '''the Greater Gothic Empire''' ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin Latin]: ''Magnum Imperium Gothicum'') and informally called '''Greater Gothica''', is an intercontinental sovereign state spanning around the globe. Extending from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Ocean Atlantic Sea] in the west to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean Pacific Sea] in the east, and from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctic_Ocean Arctic Sea] in the North to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Ocean Southern Sea] in the south, Gothica covers an area of over 85,990,652 km<sup>2</sup> (33,201,176 mi<sup>2</sup>), stretching around one-half of the Earth's inhabited land area, every time zone, and borders two sovereign nations, with which it has border disputes that existed since the 45th millennium to the present day. The northernmost and southernmost provinces of the Empire are respectively Nordstern and Feuerblume, and the most densely-populated administrative division in the Empire is its metropole (consisting of 221 districts), in which the capital and largest city of the Empire, World Capital Gothica—[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Rome New Rome] (formerly named Necropolis), is located. Around 7 billion subjects live in the Empire's 1,500 districts, which makes the Empire the most populous country in the world. 92.55 of Gothica's population are [https://www.openculture.com/2017/05/a-brief-history-of-goths-from-the-goths-to-gothic-literature-to-goth-music.html Goths in the sense that they are distinguished from the pre-cataclysmic Germanic tribes that invaded Rome in the late 300s and early 400s AD]; 94 percent lived in urbanized areas (e.g., Saint Putinsburg, Miklagard, Teutonsgard, Sigmundsburg, etc.) with over 1.39 billion living in the capital city and metropole.


The Imperial Government of the Greater Gothic Empire functions as a theocratic, totalitarian and universal absolute monarchy, ruled solely by the Emperor/Empress of All Gothica with virtually limitless and unrestrained absolute power, with generally aristocratic and (partially) militaristic elements. The main organ of government is the Chamber of Regents, which is composed of 144,000 members who are of the highest-ranking upper aristocratic houses of the Empire, led by a Lord or Lady President (who is also the Supreme Chancellor) and ultimately answerable only to the Emperor/Empress. The House of Basina is its ruling dynasty, having traced its origins to the Witch-Queen Basina who laid the foundations of the Gothic State in what is now Nodengard and its surrounding lands.
'''Gothica''' ({{IPAc-en|'|g|ɒ|θ|ɪ|k|ə}}), officially the '''Greater Gothic Empire''' (Gothic: ''Großgotisches Urweltreich''; Latin: ''Magnum Imperium Gothicum''; Anglish: ''Michelgothish Urworldriche'') and fully styled the '''Greater Gothic Empire of the Goth Realm''' (''Großgotisches Urweltreich der Gotenthum'', ''Michelgothish Urworldriche of the Gothenrealm'', ''Magnum Imperium Gothicum Regnum Gothae''), is a world state. At a total of 314,257,690 square kilometres (or 121,335,570 square miles) of Earth's inhabitable land mass that spans across the entire supercontinent, and around eighteen billion subjects, Gothica is the largest country in the world by area and population. The Empire is...
 
Remnants of what was once the human population that was reduced to drastically less than 100 million, following the global thermonuclear ctaclysm in the third decade of the second millennium AD, re-emerged after a few millennia after resettling themselves in nearly post-contaminated soil following their confrontations with the harsh wasteland environment. These settlements, followed by a slow and steady reconstruction of what was left of their civilization before the outburst, were met with attacks from wasteland peoples more often than usual, among them being the tribes that later make up the Goths that will soon emerge as a significant people since the arrival of the semi-mythical Witch-Queen Basina (ca. 2716? to 4015?) and are to persist to this day. One of the post-thermonuclear wasteland states to rise in the early fourth millennium per the era of the Radioactive Ice Age was a loose confederation of Gothic tribal kingdoms under the nominal suzerainty of Great Oium, followed by several other states that developed across the Old World. Shifting from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Paganism neo-paganism] and [https://www.encyclopedia.com/religion/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/chthonic-divinities-worship chthonic] nature worship since the days of its High King Ottokar, Great Oium in 4855 ultimately embraced Heterodoxy when High King Valamir the Great, converted from neo-paganism in response to a threat from the Northern States led by Nodengard where he forcibly subdued the 'greykin' witches as the cause and profiteers of internal division. At an unknown time, Great Oium has seen a general revival, most especially of Gothic culture as well as aesthetic derived from the subculture, starting with the re-emergence of types such as [https://gothtypes.fandom.com/wiki/Fairy_Goth Fairy Goth], [https://gothtypes.fandom.com/wiki/Tribal_Goth Tribal Goth], and [https://gothtypes.fandom.com/wiki/Medival_Goth Medieval Goth], to say the least, and a profound interest in music and the arts, thus beginning the synthesis of pre- and post-cataclysmic wasteland dark alternative scene cultures/subcultures that defined the kind of 'Gothic' culture for the following millennia. Since the fifth millennium, Great Oium disintegrated into smaller warring cliques, shortly prior to the Finngolian-Hwan Yoke during the hazardous Great Radioactive Winter of 128.M4-883.M5, until they were liberated and finally reunified by the Crown of Eisenheim under another loose confederation called the Old Dominion as of the early sixth millennium. in 22nd May 6420, Armand crowned himself Emperor of All Gothica and established the Greater Gothic Empire from the defeated rival Gothic states and the territories released by the declining empires of Finngolia and Hwan, and under his successors the country had significantly expanded through wasteland reclamation, conquest and direct annexation to become what the country is now, stretching across the entire Eastern Hemisphere from one end of the North Merican continent on the west to the other one of the East. By the start of the First Pax Gothica, it had grown to include all of the territories almost corresponding to pre-Cataclysmic [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Eurasia Afro-Eurasia] and thereabouts, but not limited to most of West Antarctica, pre-Cataclysmic Greenland, several islands in the shrinking Pacific Ocean, and what was then the Pacific Northwest. The Empire played a significant and more decisive role in the Great Interhemispheric War, and emerged victorious as an unparalleled dominant hyperpower as well as arch-rival to both the Merican Commonwealth and the Oceanic Union since the beginning of a cold war. The eras preceding that of Empresses Victoria I and Victoria II, respectively, saw the most spectacular technological breakthroughs of the unusually distant future ever immagined, such as the Webway and pico-technology, and also saw the settlement and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terraforming terraformation] of the Moon, Mars and Venus by the Empire itself. Since the reign of the former, it embarked on a massive-scale reconstruction program, part of her vision for its future and the upcoming Second Pax Gothica, starting with the renewal and expansion of its capital Necropolis into a supermassive mega-city and the construction of a multi-dimensional city axis between the Pacific and Atlantic seas.
