Fravina (French: Fravina), officially the Republic of Fravina (Lysian: République de Fravina) is a country on the continent of Argis on the planet of Eurth.

Fravina is a semi-direct democratic federal republic, with three separate branches of government and a bicameral legislature, called the People's Council of Fravina. The nation's executive branch is headed by the president and four vice presidents, known as the Vice Presidential Council.

Etymology and Pronounciation

The name Fravina derives from the indigenous Frav People and the Frav word ina, which translates as river. The river in the name of Fravina refers to the Belle River.

History

Indigenous peoples and pre-colonial era

Europan colonization

Fravina was colonized by Lysia, and was part of the colony of Lysian Columbia.

Lysian Columbia

Lysian Columbia gained its independence from Lysia in 1778. As part of the nation, Fravina participated in the Delamarian War of 1804 against Labradoria. This resulted in a Columbian loss. In the Treaty of Labrador (1817), Fravina was made independent from Lysian Columbia.

First Republic

The First Republic of Fravina had collected a large debt during its war for independence that it struggled to pay. The debt continued to increase during the Fravina Shipping Crisis of 1833, the Native Fravi Rebellions, and the Fravina Labour Strikes of the 1880s. By the late 1800s, Fravina suffered from corruption.

Civil War and Socialist Revolution

The Fravi Civil War (1896-1904) between the Indigenous Confederacy, Fravi Socialists, and the First Republic of Fravina. Beginning with the Proclamation of Indigenous Independence in October 1896, the war grew to include the Socialists when President Pierre Antier began persecuting the group in an attempt to stop the Socialists from expressing support for the Indigenous Confederacy. Despite intiail losses, the Republic won the war with the help of foreign powers intervening on the side of their side.

In the post-war period, Fravina struggled to rebuild with their even bigger debts. The struggles of the period emboldened the socilaist movement. Following the assassination of socialist politician Maxim Batton and the 1941 Suspension of Fravi Congress, riots broke out across the nation, beginning the Fravi Socialist Revolution (1942-1948).

The Socialists grew in size during the interim period, with indigenous groups and the lower classes joining the movement. This contributed to the socialist victory of 1948. The revolution unofficially ended in August 1948 with the Capture of Fort d'Olivier by General Jacque De Mercy, and it officialy ended in October 1948 the signing of the Treaty of Valensole.

Contemporary Fravina

The Second Republic of Fravina was formed on 15 October 1948, with General Jacque De Mercy ruling as the first president. His tenure, as well as the tenure of his two successors, were marred with corruption, poverty, and crime.

In the late 1980s and 1990s saw an increase in the standard of living in Fravina. Poverty, corruption, and decline were all on a decline during these decades. This success was largely accredited to the reforms of Presidents Marie Boche and Pierre Blanchet.
