Solevant, offically the Republic of Solevant (Merovingian: République de Solevant) is a sovereign nation in Septentrion located in Southwest Hemithea. It is bordered on land in the north by Camia and northwest by Järvalaimaa and by the Meridian Ocean in the south and the Halu'an Sea in the southeast. It is also in close proximity to Maverica and Etelasaaret. The capital is Bougainville with the largest populated city being Salingbya. Solevant is a member of the Entente Cordiale and has been since 1934. It has a population of 31 million as of 2018.

Archaeological evidence shows that Solevant had been inhabited for at least two thousand years before the first recorded interactions with Themiclesian merchants as they expanded and fortified existing trade routes. The Proto-Paganese civilization was noted to be a relatively large and homogeneous civilization, despite not having developed a formal written language as seen in other Hemithean or Casaterran states at the same time. Themiclesian interests in the region would rise in the 600s as it did in Camia, and by the 800s Themiclesian colonists had expanded further into Solevant. The first Casaterran colonists from Anglia would arrive in the 1600s, however these would be kicked out by the 1680s by the arrival of the Kingdom of Sieuxerr.

Sieuxerrian colonial expansion come to a climax in the 1750s and decline with the end of the Sieuxerrian-Themiclesian War, losing large swaths of their colonial possessions to the Themiclesians. With the start of the Sieuxerrian Revolution in 1788 the Sieuxerrian colony, known as Solevant by this time, would stay loyal to the Royalists, offering a number of nobility shelter as many were unable to flee to Saintonge. Pro-Bonapartist military leaders would launch the 1820 Revolution, which would be brief, but incredibly violent. While pro-Bonapartist, the generals and statesmen wished for an independent nation, and in exchange for ports and a number of captured nobility to be tried in Sieuxerr were granted such indepence by Napoléon II in 1821.

Solevant would be split between a unified Paganese Kingdom and Solevant itself until 1929 when, after the conclusion of the 2nd Solevanti-Paganese War, Soelvent would annex the kingdom.
