Havlanca, officially the Federal Havlancan Republic (Portuguese: República Havlancense Federal) is a country in South America. It borders Brazil to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Uruguay to the southwest, and Argentina and Paraguay to the west. Havlanca covers an area of approximately 576,774 km² (222,964 sq mi) and has a population of around 30.1 million. Lages is the capital while the largest city is Curitiba and main financial hub is Porto Alegre. Other major urban areas include Cascavel, Desterro, Caxias do Sul, Joinville, Londrina, Maringá, and Pelotas.
The area that became Havlanca was first inhabited by groups of hunter–gatherers over 10,000 years ago. The predominant tribe at the moment of the arrival of European people was the Guaraní people. European colonization in Havlanca started with the arrival of Portuguese people and Spanish Jesuit missionaries in the Colony of Brazil. The territory would emerge as a disputed between Spain and Portugal, as such the monarchy encouraged the immigration of settlers from the Azores Islands to build up a Portuguese population.
German immigrants arrived in Brazil soon after it gained independence from Portugal in 1822. They were recruited to work as farmers and were granted large tracts where they could settle with their families and colonize the region. German immigrantion was also supported by a network private groups that promoted large scale immigration of Europeans to the Americas. These groups created rural communities or colonies for immigrants, many of which developed into large cities, such as Blumenau and Joinville. A notable number of Italian, Dutch, and French immigrants also arrived from Europe and settled in the region throughout the decade.
The area would develop into a booming trade hub before being abruptly disrupted by the ourbreak of the Cisplatine War. As a response to the Empire's defeat and increasingly harsh taxation, several republican movements began to unify and rebel against Brazilian authority. Baixa Havlanca would declare its independence from Brazil in 1836, starting the Havlancan War of Independence. Supported heavily by the neighbouring Argentine Confederation and Uruguay, Baixa Havlanca would form the Havlancan Confederation with Alta Havlanca in 1839 before defeating Brazil at the Battle of Ponta Grossa, allowing for the annexation of Paraná to form modern Havlanca. Brazil recognised its independence in 1845.
Since its independence from Brazil the country has seen several periods of vast economic development which has allowed it to become the richest and most developed country in the Americas behind the United States and Canada. Two of Latin America's largest ports are located in Havlanca and many multinational corportations have set up regional headquarters in Porto Alegre. Tourism and banking are also prominent sectors of the economy; Havlanca acts as a regional hub for international finance and tourism. In recent years discoveries of pockets of crude oil and natural gas have further enhanced the future economic outlook of the country.
In terms of politics the country has been largely dominated by the Patria Sulista party which has governed Havlanca for 130 of its 187 years as an independent state. Despite this Havlanca has maintained a relatively healthy democractic tradition which has not been plauged with the same levels of instability experienced across Latin America historically. The Espíndola family has played an important role in Havlancan politics with the family being in power between 1870-1930, 1965-1992, and most recently since 2018 with the election of Maria Bastos Espíndola.
