The Great Kingdom of Angland, otherwise simply referred to as Angland or Anglia, is a country in eastern Parthenia. It is bordered by Charmelcia to the north and Vermand to the west. It is the most populous and politically central constituent of the Anglish Realm, a sovereign state which includes territories such as Barbodia and the South Bagel Islands. Mainland Angland is located at the end of the Anglican Peninsula and surrounded by the Merillian Ocean.

Angland is a member of a number of important international organisations such as X, X and the United Nations. Angland is one of five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, showing the nations international importance.

Etymology

The name "Angland" is derived from the Anglican people group who first settled the peninsula in the 1100s, arriving from further west in Eisenland. "Angland" simply means "Land of the Anglicans", with the name evolving overtime into "Angland". The Anglicans originate from the Anglian Lowlands of Deseleria.

History

Main article: History of Angland

Early History

The Wensley Man, the earliest found human remains on the Anglican Peninsula.

Angland was the first nation in Parthenia to be settled by humans during the Great Hominid Migration from Atusia and the east. Despite this, humans are thought to have kept travelling instead of stopping in Angland for any long periods, with little evidence of settlement dating back to before 40,000 years ago. By the end of the region's prehistoric period the peninsula was inhabited by a culture which eventually evolved into Celts, comprising Celtic Anglica and Celtic Charmelcia.

The Remillian conquest of the peninsula began in 49 AD, and began a ruling of Angland that lasted for over three centuries. During this time many grand Remillian structures where built all over the peninsula, notably in places such as Baths and Retoria which still have notable Remillian influence into modern day. Despite this, upon the collapse of the Remillian Empire in 301 CE the Anglican Peninsula was invaded by Germanic Anglo-Deselerian as well as Kellins from the Lokournan peninsula to the north of Angland. Despite this, due to the technological advantages of the Anglo-Deselerian people the Kellins were reduced to Cornkien, where they eventually became the Cornkien ethnic group, as well as to Charmelcia where they became a minority group to the celts in the region. A majority of the land settled by the Anglo-Deselerians became the later Kingdom of Angland.

Demographics

Ethnic Groups

Only three groups are native to Angland, being the Angles, the Cornkiens of the Cornkien Peninsula and the Charmelcs from the north. The primary group of these are the Anglicans, who have inhabited the peninsula since the settlement from Anglian Lowlands of Deseleria in 1103. The Anglican people are distributed throughout the entire country, as well as in neighbouring Charmelcia and Boroughsford.
