Teinainano (Teinainano: ᨈᨀᨙᨊᨀᨗᨊᨊᨀᨚ; Teinainano) , officially the Republic of Teinainano (Teinainano: ᨑᨀᨗᨅᨅᨀᨙᨑᨀᨗᨀᨀᨗ ᨈᨀᨙᨊᨀᨗᨊᨊᨀᨚ; Ribaberiki Teinainano) is a sovereign island country in Savai. The country comprises of the main island of Aonibike and 42 smaller islands and islets. Its closest neighbours are Tsukigata to the north, Melasia to the south and the X Ocean to the east. Teinainano is a federalist parliamentary republic consisting of 16 chiefdoms, administrative regions ruled by a local tribal chief. The Republic spans XXX km2 (XXX sq mi) and has a population of 375,681, making it one of the smallest countries in the world by population. The capital of Teinainano is the largest settlement, Nikutoru, which is an important cultural and economic center.

The native I-Teinainano people first migrated to the islands around 2000 BCE from mainland Catai, beginning a caste-based society marked by strife and inter-tribal violence. I-Teinainano clans and tribes frequently warred with one another until the arrival of Asuran explorers in the 16th century, who brought the island under a colonial protectorate. The island changed hands multiple times during its colonial period, with X colonizers taking over the colony in XXXX before returning back to X, and finally becoming a colony of X in XXXX. After a prolonged period of X rule, power was gradually transferred from the colonial administration to the local peoples and Teinainano was given home-rule status in XXXX. With the empowerment of locals into positions of power in the leadership, calls for greater freedoms led to the independence of Teinainano in 19XX.

Today, Teinainano remains politically unstable with tensions and strife between tribes still a significant issue for the administration. High murder rates in the country are due to rampant inter-tribal violence and killings. Teinainano's economy remains extremely undeveloped while a large portion of the population remains under the poverty line. The country itself is mostly reliant on subsistence farming and fishing. A significant portion of Teinainano's gross national product (GNP) is derived from foreign aid, along with remittance from overseas Teinainanoans. The country is a member of the Savai Council for Economic Development and the X.


Etymology

Teinainano, meaning "down of the mast" in the Teinainano language was adopted upon independence in 19XX. The traditional indigenous name for the island is Aonibike, today retained as the name of the largest island. However, the name Teinainano was chosen by popular consensus to represent the inclusion of the outer islands and because of the former's association with colonial rule. Under the rule of X, the country was named the Protectorate of Aonibike.
