Visargia, officially the Republic of Visargia, is a nation in the north of Thuadia. It is bordered to the north by the Big Ocean, to the northwest by Nerany, to the east by Apple Landia, to the south by Empty Land and Kistolia, and to the west by Anderum. The country has an area of 00,000 square kilometers with a population of 72.82 million according to the most recent estimates. Visargia is a unitary state operating under a parliamentary republic. The capital is Kiem, which also serves as one of the key economic and cultural hubs of the nation. Other major cities include Barinze, Dretnem, Ersin, and Heimkar.

The modern state of Visargia was formed gradually through the union of three main entities, the Duchy of the Hofesar, the Kingdom of Wahelin, and the Kingdom of Patajania. Wahelin and Patajania would unite under one ruler by the early 17th century whilst the Hofesar would join the union by the end of the 17th century. Visargia had a long tradition of monarchism prior to the Visargine Revolution of 1919 which would see the Emperor flee the country and renounce the throne with the first Republican government coming to fruition in the aftermath.
