Camria (Camrian: Kemrad), officially the Kingdom of Camria (Camrian: Rheon di Kemrad), is a sovereign state in western Asura, bordering Miricia to the east, ??? and ??? to the south, the Lhedwin Channel to the north, and the Opal Ocean to the west. The kingdom comprises mainland Camria, which contains the metropolitan capital city of Elysed, as well as the island of Afalon to the west. According to the 2016 census, the country has a population of 63.5 million.
Prior to the rise of the Pergalean Empire, Camria was inhabited primarily by a number of Thiaric peoples, most notably the Cymrals. The region was subjugated by the Pergaleans during the Cymralic Wars from 26-20 BCE, giving rise to the province of Cymral, and the eventual adoption of Vulgar Pergalean by the majority of the local population, giving rise to the modern Camrian language. The invasion of Alucia and the ensuing fall of the Pergaleans led to the rise of petty kingdoms across the province, most notably that of Elysed. In the 8th century CE, Peter the Saint of Elysed subdued many of the pagan lords of Camria in the Camrian Consolidation, eventually leading to the rise of the nascent Alydian Empire. Elysed would come to dominate the Alydian Empire, coming to chafe with the lords of the less influential southern polities, eventually resulting in a strong rivalry between Camria and the southern regions.
By the thirteenth century, the Duchy of Elysed had emerged as the dominant power in Alydian Camria, and was one of the first polities to take advantage of colonialism, establishing a number of colonies across the new world during the 15th century. This nascent colonial empire led to an economic revolution in the duchy, allowing it to stand toe-to-toe with rivals in Atresca. In 1551, Camria defied the Alydian Emperor and sided with Midrasia during the Pontifical War, ultimately emerging victorious. In the aftermath of the conflict, Midrasian Emperor-King Charles II allowed for the creation of the Archduchy of Camria, consolidating Camrian prestige and power in western Asura and allowing it to emerge as one of the primary nations within the Empire. The fall of the Empire allowed the Camrian monarchs to adopt the title of King, and the nascent kingdom engaged in further colonial pursuits in Majula and Arabekh.
The Camrian Empire became a major feature of the late colonial era, and the kingdom itself had emerged as a significant player in Asuran politics. In the Great War, Camria was a member of the Concordat, and the fighting had disastrous effects on the country. In ther aftermath, border regions such as Colgasia were able to break away from the kingdom, and a number of colonies granted self-governance or ceded to the victorious powers. By the 1980s, the Camrian Empire - outside of a few minor islands - was all but ended. The kingdom had, however, rebuilt from the war, and emerged as a diplomatic middle power in Asura.
In the modern day, Camria is a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy. The reigning monarch is Anna II, while the current serving Prime Minister is Luc Gwenadur. Camria is a developed country with a high-income economy, recording a nominal GDP per capita of $44,318 in 2019.
