The '''Catabole''', also referred to as the '''Catabolic event''' or the '''Great Impact''', was the {{wp|impact event|impact}} of a {{wp|superbolide}} in the [[X Sea]] in the early afternoon of 13 September 1348. The presumably 350–370 m (1,210 ft) diameter, 61 million tonnes heavy {{wp|near-Earth asteroid|near-Teleon}} {{wp|C-type asteroid}} with a {{wp|carbonaceous crondite}}-like composition, called the '''Catabolic impactor''', struck [[Teleon]] approximately 4.4 km (2.7 mi) off the shoreline of [[X]] in [[X]] at a shallow {{wp|atmospheric entry}} angle of 21.1 degrees and a speed relative to Teleon of 28.6 km per second (17.8 mi per second). The impact had profound effects on the course of world history.
'''Boricua and the Ardentines''', officially the '''Republic of Boricua and the Ardentines''' ({{wp|Norwegian language|Waldish}}: ''Republikken Borikua og Ardentinene''), is a {{wp|sovereign state}} and {{wp|island country}} of the [[Alvinia|Lesser Alvines]] in the southeastern [[Alvinian Sea]]. Centrally located in the [[Windward Islands (Teleon)|Windward Islands]], the country consists of the main islands [[Boricua]] and [[Ardentines|Stor Ardente]] as well as numerous smaller islands and outcroppings comprising the [[Ardentines]]; it shares {{wp|maritime boundary|maritime boundaries}} with [[X]] to the north, [[X]] to the west, and [[X]] to the south. The {{wp|capital city|capital}} and {{wp|primate city}} of Boricua and the Ardentines is [[Boricua City]].


The object impacted the {{wp|sedimentary rock}} of the {{wp|sea floor}} with a {{wp|kinetic energy}} equivalent of about 1,150 {{wp|TNT equivalent|megatons of TNT}} and instantaneously formed an {{wp|impact crater}} 4.9 km (3.0 mi) wide and 850 m (2,789 ft) deep. The resulting shockwave, seismic activity, and expulsion of {{wp|megatsunami}}s over 80 m (262 ft) tall led to the widespread devastation of communities along the surrounding coasts of the X Sea and the broader [[X]], killing approximately 100,000–165,000 people in one of the [[List of Teleon natural disasters by death toll|deadliest single natural disasters in recorded history]]; numerous major cities such as X and X were entirely annihilated. It was the worst natural disaster in Calesian and Hylasian history, the worst natural disaster in a millenium, and the largest impact event ever witnessed by humankind.
Sugar Coast's population spans a great variety of ethnic groups, religions, languages, traditions, and cultures. Approximately X% of the country was X, X% was X, 3.4% was X, and another 6.1% practiced native and traditional faiths. Its diverse geography and ecology dominate the country, ranging from {{wp|rainforest|tropical rain forests}} to coastal savannas and other {{wp|wetland}}s and arid {{wp|desert}}s to the north. As a quasi-{{wp|tropics|tropical}} nation, it is therefore largely dependent on {{wp|agriculture}}, and is a major exporter of {{wp|cotton}}, {{wp|coffee}}, {{wp|cocoa}} and {{wp|palm oil}}. {{wp|Norwegian language|Waldish}} is the {{wp|official language}} and ''{{wp|lingua franca}}'' of Sugar Coast, though a large diaspora of indigenous languages is also present.


{{wp|Sulfur}}-rich {{wp|gypsum}} from the seabed was vaporized in large quantities and injected into the atmosphere as {{wp|aerosol}}s, triggering significant {{wp|climate change}} in an {{wp|impact winter}}. As a result, extreme weather and {{wp|harvest|harvest failures}} led to widespread {{wp|famine}}, economic distress, and ultimately major religious, political, and social upheaval around the world. It is estimated that about 30% to 60% of Calesia's population, and about 35% of the entire world population, were wiped out during the 1348–1353 [[Catabolic Crisis]] in the aftermath.
Sugar Coast is a {{wp|unitary state|unitary}} {{wp|republic|constitutional republic}}, led by a [[President of Sugar Coast|President]] as both {{wp|head of state}} and {{wp|head of government}} under a {{wp|multi-party system}}; the current system was defined in the {{wp|constitution}} lastly amended in 1999.

Boricua and the Ardentines, officially the Republic of Boricua and the Ardentines (Waldish: Republikken Borikua og Ardentinene), is a sovereign state and island country of the Lesser Alvines in the southeastern Alvinian Sea. Centrally located in the Windward Islands, the country consists of the main islands Boricua and Stor Ardente as well as numerous smaller islands and outcroppings comprising the Ardentines; it shares maritime boundaries with X to the north, X to the west, and X to the south. The capital and primate city of Boricua and the Ardentines is Boricua City.

Sugar Coast's population spans a great variety of ethnic groups, religions, languages, traditions, and cultures. Approximately X% of the country was X, X% was X, 3.4% was X, and another 6.1% practiced native and traditional faiths. Its diverse geography and ecology dominate the country, ranging from tropical rain forests to coastal savannas and other wetlands and arid deserts to the north. As a quasi-tropical nation, it is therefore largely dependent on agriculture, and is a major exporter of cotton, coffee, cocoa and palm oil. Waldish is the official language and lingua franca of Sugar Coast, though a large diaspora of indigenous languages is also present.

Sugar Coast is a unitary constitutional republic, led by a President as both head of state and head of government under a multi-party system; the current system was defined in the constitution lastly amended in 1999. The country's economic growth, prosperity, and democratic government have made it a sizable player in Hylasian politics and wields disproportionate power for its size and location, though ongoing instability and armed conflict has diminished that. Sugar Coast is a member state of the United Congress, the Community of West Hylasian States, and the X.
