Khijovia (Khijovian: Khijovıæ [‘kɨjoːvjə]), officially the Ascended Kingdom of Khijovia, is an isolationist, semi-feudalistic constitutional monarchy situated in northwestern Pelia, with Kleitore serving as its capital. It shares its borders with Kyldigard to the north and Prestore to the south, while the Kesper Sea lies to the west. It occupies the northern portion of the High West region and possesses several overseas colonies, including the Recondian archipelago in the Wintry Ocean, Thenoria in northern Ilus, and Yvrethia in northeastern Pelia, which is the largest and most significant of these territories. Mainland Khijovia has an estimated population of approximately 110 million, making it one of the most populous countries in Pelia. The colonial territories contribute an additional 17 million inhabitants, bringing the total population of Khijovia to 127 million. Known for its deeply spiritual society, the nation has maintained a unique connection with the magical arts throughout its history, with approximately 94% of the population belonging to the Aravian faith.
During ancient times, Khijovia served as a crossroads for numerous neolithic cultures. Thriving city-states emerged during the Era of Ruin, preserving their cultural identity and language staunchly against external influences. Despite the upheavals in the rest of Sparkalia, Khijovia remained isolated, relatively unaffected by wars and famines until the catastrophic Abheric Wars and the subsequent collapse of the city-state system around 177 BR, marking the end of the Archaic Age in Khijovian history. Despite suffering continental amnesia during the Great Shuffle, Khijovian culture persisted. In 289 AR, the Kveutonian civilization conquered and divided Khijovia into governatorates, making it a crucial economic and cultural hub within the Kveutonian Empire. The empire reached its zenith around 415 but dissolved in 502, leading to the formation of independent statelets and religious-monastic military orders, including the influential Jovianic Order. Over the centuries, cities transformed into feudal lordships, giving rise to Khijovian states. The Grand Duke of Klettoria, Zenon the Great, initiated a national unification campaign in 1152, defeating the rival House of Arenia and establishing the Kingdom of Khijovia on July 11, 1161. Despite centuries of rule, the Zenonian Dynasty faced a coup on January 28, 1534, leading to the formation of the relatively short-lived Khijovian Federation. In May 1607, Prince Arcadion of the House of Zenon reclaimed power and officially founded the Ascended Kingdom of Khijovia on June 3, 1607.
Etymology
The origin of the name Khijovia has long intrigued linguists and historians, prompting diverse reconstructions. While some theories delve into etymological roots, others are steeped in historical narratives, including the intriguing notion of an ancient pre-Shuffle king named Khjvonnə in popular traditions.
One prevalent theory suggests that the name stems from Khjyvi, an exoethnonym used by the Koritians for a tribe residing in the neighboring Aldoria region. Another hypothesis, not mutually exclusive, proposes that these people venerated a pagan deity, Khœva, making the name signify "inhabitants of the land of Khœva."

Physical Geography
Situated within the expansive geographical region known as the High West, the Khijovian landscape showcases diverse features, making it one of the most varied regions on the Pelian continent. Bordered by the Kyldigardian region to the north, Khijovia is geographically enclosed by the Clastoclite range to the east and the Stornic massif to the south.
The Khijovian terrain exhibits a broad spectrum of characteristics, with a prevalence of hilly areas compared to flat or mountainous zones, maintaining an average altitude of approximately 730 meters above sea level. The mountainous landscapes extend across the eastern expanse of the nation, encompassing a significant portion of the western Clastoclite system. The highest peaks in Khijovia are situated in the central Clastoclites, where numerous summits exceed 5000 meters, including the remarkable Mount Eletherium (5800 meters), standing as the loftiest peak in the Clastoclite range. Over time, the Khijovian mountainous region has been shaped by an ancient Cenozoic glacial mass, leaving behind extensive moraines flanking the western Clastoclite slope, forming expansive highlands in the north and numerous shallow valleys amidst the southern hills.
The plains of Khijovia encompass various areas, including the Catridian plain, formed by the alluvial expanses of the Thevre river and its tributaries, extending to Pyrisia; the Betronic plains, elevated plains along the coasts of Androvia and Charonthia; and the Platic plain, an elongated flat valley of tectonic origin encircling the Axiomia Lake, stretching from Cassiopia to Carcassonia.
Numerous Khijovian isles are grouped in small archipelagos, such as Cheronia off the Charonthic coasts, and Recondia, a polar archipelago situated within a deep lagoon connected to the Wintry Ocean, entirely surrounded by ice cap glaciers.
Geology
Khijovia's geological history is defined by the Late Cenozoic collision between the Kesperian and northern Pelian plates, resulting in the Clastoclitic chain and the accretion of microplates. This area is highly active geologically, with notable Neogene volcanism and seismicity. Studies have identified two main paleogeographic domains separated by the Clastoclitic line: the Pelian domain and the Kesperian domain, which includes the High West and the Kesperian marine basin. The Khijovian subregion features sedimentary rocks dating from the Precambrian to the Quaternary and Cambrian metamorphites in the southeast. Khijovia's diverse geological features contribute significantly to the understanding of north-western Pelia's geology.
