Ceryana (Suryanese: Suryana; Chinese: 宣雅) is a country in Southeast Asia. The federation consists of six states and two federal territories. Noules is the capital of the federation, the largest city and the seat of the legislative and judicial branch of the federal government. Clermont-des-Indes is the seat of the executive branch of the federal government.
Ceryana has its origins in the Indayan Kingdom, which was the first state to unite the several Malayic fiefdoms in the region in 601 CE. The establishment of the Portuguese colony of Beira Leste in the mid-17th century marked the start of an era of European colonial competition. The French annexed the Portuguese puppet state of the Kingdom of Ceriana in the mid-18th century, causing the Portuguese to transfer administration of its remaining territories to the British. The War of 1778 resulted in France surrendering half of its colonial territory to the British. Colonial rule was met with fierce local resistance by the early 20th century, culminating in the British colonies of Hertford, Indaya and Noules to jointly declare independence as the federation of Ceryana on 1 September 1948. The British relinquished its last colonial claims on 1 November 1954, and the French on 20 September 1966.
The country is governed under a unique semi-presidential system, which incorporates the main elements of the English Westminster system and the French premier-presidential system. The dual-track legal system is based on both English common law and French civil law. The head of state is the directly-elected President and the head of government is the Prime Minister. The complex history of the country, along with high rates of intermarriage and relatively open immigration policies, have made Ceryana a multi-ethnic and multicultural society, which continue to shape Ceryan identity and national policies. The four national languages are Chinese, English, French and Suryanese, although the sole official language of administration on the federal level is English. Ceryana is officially a secular state, although freedom of religion is protected by the constitution.
The economy of Ceryana grew at an average of almost 12% every year for the first 30 years after independence, fuelled by its export-orientated manufacturing and shipping industries. Since being recognised as a developed country in the 1980s, the economy has shifted towards tertiary industries, with Noules becoming a global financial centre and Port Elliot a tech hub. It also ranks highly in quality of life, education, healthcare, safety, economic freedom, civil liberties and political rights.
