Eriwick, officially the Northern Empire of Eriwick (Eriwickian: Nordern Impier o Eriwick), is a country in Southeastern Kulanthir. With a population of 114,694,715, it is the X-most populous in the world. Eriwick is situated on the southeastern coast of Kulanthir, bordering the Ebbsmere Sea, the Sea of Cordale, and the Dumara Ocean. Much of its territory is located on the Halberd Peninsula. It borders Dorica to the east, Gosigland to the northeast, and Malgania to the northwest. Additionally, Eriwick shares a maritime border with Sulistria to the east across the Strait of Sordith. It also possesses 5 overseas territories located far from the mainland. As a federal state, Eriwick is administratively divided into 13 constituent grand duchies. The capital and most populous city in Eriwick is The Hearth. Other major urban areas in Eriwick include Paria, Norwick, Kurdon, Newham, and Malmouth.
The territory that is today Eriwick was first inhabited by the Monadic peoples, a large group of early human hunter-gatherers that dispersed across Southeastern Kulanthir. The Western Coast of Eriwick was also home to a few separate Malthasvarian tribes. Most of the Malthasvars in the region migrated to Dulmara around the 4th century BCE, though notably the tribes that would become the Karavas remained. As civilisation developed, the Monadic peoples began to farm and establish settlements, organising themselves into tribes, the largest of which included the Kovii, the Cordii, and the Numbrii. The Monadic peoples formed numerous kingdoms in the area, which were all united by Alfred the Wise by 550 CE into the Kingdom of Monadia. In the early 7th century, the Romassan Empire conquered the Kingdom of Monadia, which was incorporated into the province of Monadia along with the territory of the Gosigs and Harots.

With the fall of the Romassan Empire in 1005, Eriwick retook much of the land of the former Kingdom of Monadia. The capital was moved to Malmouth briefly in 1114 amidst protests in Eriwick before being moved to The Hearth in 1116. The kingdom retained the name of Eriwick, which had, at that point, become synonymous with the country.
In December of 1256, the Kingdom of Dorica declared war on Eriwick following a territorial dispute over the Lispian March, today part of Dorica as the province of Lispia. The war resulted in the Dorican conquest of Eriwick, with Dorica annexing several border regions and installing a monarch of the House of Blomsbourg in the newly-established Kingdom of Hearthel-Morgate which took up the rest of the former Grand Kingdom.

In 1827, Eriwick used the Yulercan Revolution as a pretense to invade and occupy the Republic of Yulerca. This was followed in 1859 by Empress Catherina's federal reforms, which reorganised Eriwick into a federation of grand duchies. In 1881, Eriwick annexed Tchulal, further expanding its territory. The Morgate Act of 1924 enacted the Imperial Charter, a charter or constitution that reformed the governance of the empire to allow more rights for the people. The final expansion of Eriwickian territory occurred with the Annexation of Shhlia in 1925. Eriwick fought for the Royal Front in the Great War, which later merged with the Kambapur Coalition.
