The Ruvian Autonomy (Ruvian: Ruvii Selsbestjoer, Littish: Ruviske Selvstyre) or simply Ruvia, is an autonomous region of Littland since 2004. It is inhabited by the Ruvian ethnic group with the offical languages being Ruvian and Littish.

History

See also: History of Littland

The Ruvians have been under control of Littland since the Treaty of Kehlborg in 1702.

The Ruvians first started coming together to discuss their place in Littland in the early 1800's, culminating in the First Ruvian Council in 1809. The Old Council as it's known, declared at Ruvians were different than Litts and as such, should be treated as such and with respect, dignity and care. Since 1702 Ruvians had seen oppression by ruling Littish monarchs.

The Dark Decade saw Ruvians oppressed by the Nordskov administration, deindustrializating the area and ignoring Ruvian pleas for political influence. During the Littish Civil War, the Old Council split over the issue of Nationalism or Socialism, with member unsure whether Ruvians had a better future as an independent state or under a socialist, and thus perceived, more equal Littland. This is still a topic of discussion today.

After the Civil War, rights for Ruvians and the recognition of majority-Ruvian areas were incorporated into the Constitution.

In November 2003 a referendum for a new Constitution was held, with the major change being the establishment of a Ruvian autonomous region. The referendum passed with 68.6% voting for it and on 1 Auggust 2004, the Ruvian Autonomy was established.

The Ruvian Autonomy is governed in accordance with Section 70 of the Constitution of Littland, which guarantee the regions autonomy and the powers of the Ruvian Council and the Premier of Ruvia, who acts as the government. Additionally the 'Act on Ruvian Autonomy and Status in Littish Politics' from 2008 further grants the region lawmaking power within certain areas such as education, social affairs and environment. The Act also gave parties in the Council the ability to stand for Folkekammer elections without the need to go through the normal process Littish parties have to. This has happened a few times, with multiple parties coming together to campaign as the United Ruvian Party, but has no seats in the current Folkekammer.

Since 2008 the Ruvian Autonomy has had its own flag and issued its own variant of the Littish passport. It also its own police force and law enforcement, but is a demilitarized area due to history of Littish oppression using the Armed Forces. Before conscription was abolished in 2006, Ruvians were exempt from military service but could still volunteer.
