'''Terrafirma''', officially the '''Republic of Terrafirma''' ({{wp|Occitan language|Valdaurian}}: ''Republica de Terrafirma''), is a {{wp|sovereign state}} located in [[Elia Australis]]. It is bordered by [[Nadauro]] to the east, [[X]] to the south, and the [[Medan Ocean|Southern Medan Ocean]] to the west; in addition, it also has maritime borders with [[X]] to the north. Terrafirma also includes the island of [[Kairiha]]. The country's {{wp|capital city|capital}} is [[Pesenàs]], while its largest city is [[Fort Banister]], which takes up much of eastern Kairiha, and is the country's busiest economic hub, while other notable cities include [[Seibal]], [[X]], and [[X]]. Most of Terrafirma's population is concentrated on Kairiha and cities along the mainland's coast, while much of the mainland itself is rural in nature.  
The '''Rejuvenated Extent of All Life,''' often referred to simply as the '''Rejuvenated Extent''' or as the '''Universalist Commonwealth''', is a sovereign state located in the [[Kibos Arm]]. It is bordered by generally stateless areas on all sides, and its capital world is Arctara.  


The first signs of human life in Terrafirma were recorded as far back as 7000 BCE, with numerous tribes being formed in the area. However, the effects of the [[Catabole]] and the [[Catabolic Crisis|ensuing crisis]] would lead to multiple of them dying out, while the [[wikipedia:Taíno|Kairihans]] and [[wikipedia:Maya_civilization|Ixil]] remained the dominant civilizations in Kairiha and mainland Terrafirma respectively, as they had been for many years before then. The first appearance of Calesians on what would become Terrafirma would come in 1578, when [[Frederic Banister]], an explorer, was contracted by the [[Kingdom of Valdaur]] to search for resources to enrich themselves and their [[Hyacinthean Empire|Hyacinthean]] allies. After coming back and sharing his findings, Valdaur's government was impressed to the point that they authorized efforts to colonize these lands, with the intent to harvest these resources. Notably, most of the people who joined the efforts were [[Fredericans|Frederican Gregorians]], who were seeking a new home after facing heavy persecution in Valdaur lands over their religious beliefs. In 1632, as [[Treaty of Cachan|Hyacinthe annexed Valdaur]], Terrafirma also came under the rule of the Hyacintheans.  
The organizations that would eventually go on to form the Rejuvenated Extent started out as the [[United Laborers of the Galaxy|United Laborers]], an alliance of trade unions on certain [[Galactic Union]] member worlds led by a council of organizers, who banded together following persecution by pro-corporate politicians, law enforcement, and the corporations themselves. In particular, the corporations instituted union busting measures, doing tactics like locking out those who attempted to unionize, and firing or cutting the hours of those interested in unionization, while manipulating local media to paint these workers in a negative light. Following these rapidly mounting tensions with their bosses, the first shots of what would become known as the [[Fanato Emergency]] were fired at a strike by workers at a mining facility on one of [[Fanato|the planet]]'s colonies, as the owners of the facility tried to send in security forces to break up the strike, but some workers responded by arming themselves and shooting the security forces, starting a worker uprising that swept the colony, before news of it spread to UL-affiliated workers on other worlds, who were emboldened to start a large strike, threatening to start their own uprisings if the corporations continued to bust unions.


In the late 18th century, with the spread of [[!Enlightenment]] ideals and news spreading of [[First Hyacinthean Revolution|a revolution breaking out in Hyacinthe]], the Terrafirmans decided to launch their own revolt, sparking the [[Terrafirman Revolution]], which they won after six years of fighting, and created a liberal [[Kingdom of Terrafirma|constitutional monarchist government]] not too different from [[Kingdom of Hyacinthe|the one that was just installed in Hyacinthe]]. However, they were then faced with a period of political turmoil that they resolved via taking advantage of local resources. They would also commence industrialization in the late 1880s, albeit not to the extent of their Nadauran neighbors, due to the agrarian government. 
(Fodder fodder, GU government sides with the corporations, workers lose against the larger, better-equipped, and more coordinated forces of the GU, although maybe some GU soldiers defect?)


In 1934, amidst the [[Great War (Teleon)|Great War]], the [[Second Empire of Nadauro]] swiftly [[Nadauran Invasion of Terrafirma|invaded Terrafirma]], overwhelming their unprepared army, and forcing them to Kairiha, where they barely held on thanks to assistance from the [[Transmedan Powers]], before launching a counterattack alongside landings at Yecahual to reclaim the mainland and launch an invasion of the Nadauran mainland. Following the end of the Great War, Terrafirma would turn into a [[Terrafirman State|right-wing dictatorship]] themselves following [[1941 Terrafirman coup d'etat|a coup d'etat]] by radical elements of the military, who were disgusted by the failure of the Terrafirman government to prepare for the war. Briefly led by aging general [[Pau Couderc]] as a military junta, he would be succeeded by [[Jacques Astruc]] in 1944, who enacted wide reforms based on his own political views, known as [[Astrucism]], where he transformed the nation into a civilian, albeit highly militaristic, one-party regime led by a charismatic strongman. Astruc would rule for 45 years, until he resigned due to old age in 1985. The assassination of his successor, [[Jaire Sardou]], would spark the short but brutal [[Half-Year War]] in 1988, which toppled the regime and installed a new republican government, but also led to the spillover of the [[Chaibian War]] from Nadauro.   
With the swift end of the Fanato Emergency, parts of the United Laborers made the decision to retreat to the Kibos Arm, in an event that would become known as the [[Great Trek]], aiming to retreat before they could be caught, and build a new state where the workers governed themselves. Arctara was chosen as the destination due to not only its distance from the Galactic Union, but also for an abundance of resources in its system. However, Arctara's surface proved extremely cold, forcing the population underground, due to the presence of volcanic vents. Upon settlement, however, the new [[Universialist]] political movement took hold, arguing that the best way to solve the lack of coordination experienced at the Fanato Emergency was a more centralized government led by a [[Monoparty (Universialism)|monoparty]].   


Terrafirma is a [[wikipedia:Developing_country|developing]] [[wikipedia:Middle_power|middle power]] with an [[wikipedia:Emerging_market|emerging market]], though some have also called it an [[wikipedia:Emerging_power#List_of_emerging_powers|emerging power]] in recent times, with major industries and exports including minerals, agriculture, tourism, and petroleum. However, native and black Terrafirmans suffer from [[wikipedia:Social_inequality|economic and social disadvantages]] compared to their white counterparts, while the nation also suffers from [[wikipedia:Corruption|corruption]], poor prison conditions, and wealth imbalances.

The Rejuvenated Extent of All Life, often referred to simply as the Rejuvenated Extent or as the Universalist Commonwealth, is a sovereign state located in the Kibos Arm. It is bordered by generally stateless areas on all sides, and its capital world is Arctara.

The organizations that would eventually go on to form the Rejuvenated Extent started out as the United Laborers, an alliance of trade unions on certain Galactic Union member worlds led by a council of organizers, who banded together following persecution by pro-corporate politicians, law enforcement, and the corporations themselves. In particular, the corporations instituted union busting measures, doing tactics like locking out those who attempted to unionize, and firing or cutting the hours of those interested in unionization, while manipulating local media to paint these workers in a negative light. Following these rapidly mounting tensions with their bosses, the first shots of what would become known as the Fanato Emergency were fired at a strike by workers at a mining facility on one of the planet's colonies, as the owners of the facility tried to send in security forces to break up the strike, but some workers responded by arming themselves and shooting the security forces, starting a worker uprising that swept the colony, before news of it spread to UL-affiliated workers on other worlds, who were emboldened to start a large strike, threatening to start their own uprisings if the corporations continued to bust unions.

(Fodder fodder, GU government sides with the corporations, workers lose against the larger, better-equipped, and more coordinated forces of the GU, although maybe some GU soldiers defect?)

With the swift end of the Fanato Emergency, parts of the United Laborers made the decision to retreat to the Kibos Arm, in an event that would become known as the Great Trek, aiming to retreat before they could be caught, and build a new state where the workers governed themselves. Arctara was chosen as the destination due to not only its distance from the Galactic Union, but also for an abundance of resources in its system. However, Arctara's surface proved extremely cold, forcing the population underground, due to the presence of volcanic vents. Upon settlement, however, the new Universialist political movement took hold, arguing that the best way to solve the lack of coordination experienced at the Fanato Emergency was a more centralized government led by a monoparty.

The Rejuvenated Extent is a one-party Universialist republic led by the Galactic Labor Party.
