The '''Republic of Nuxica''' ({{wp|Catalan language|Floren}}: ''República de Nuxic''; {{wp|Portuguese language|Lusitan}}: ''República do Nuxíca'') is a nation located in [[Asteria|Asteria Superior]]. It borders [[Lorcania]], [[Cassier]], and [[Chervolesia]] to the north, [[Duquesne]] to the east, [[Marirana]] and [[Eldmark]] to the south, and the [[Vehemens Ocean]] via [[Andradas's Bay]] to the west. It has a total population of 77,895,231 with it's capital city being [[Sant Picano]]. It's largest city is that of [[Carutagua|Carútagua]]. The nation is ethnically diverse, being split between [[Euclea|Euclean]], {{wp|Indigenous peoples of the Americas|indigenous}}, [[Bahia|Bahian]], and {{wp|mestizo}} ancestry.
Like many other nations in the region, Nuxica has been inhabited for thousands of years, with the [[Yaaxitaani Empire|Yáaxitaan]], [[Nojochi Empire|Nojoch]], and later the [[Meyaletun Empire|Meyaletuns]] achieving dominance over the region. The Meyaletuns, in particular, succeeded in creating a cohesive nation-state that would reign for hundreds of years. Though first discovered by [[Assim Asteris]] in 1488, the region was colonized by [[Florena|Floren]] explorers from [[Remana]] in the mid 16th-century, who defeated the Meyaletuns and established the colony of [[Viceduchy of Nuo Remana|Nuo Remana]] in 1590. Other Florenic powers would also establish colonies in the region, leading to [[Nuo Remanan Expeditionary Wars|low-scale conflict]] over competing boundaries. The region would be unified by decree of [[Nèstor Pereramon|Nèstor I]], becoming a [[Dominion of Nuo Remana|dominion]] of the [[Floren Empire]] in 1709. The region would remain loyal to Florena during the [[Pereramonic Wars]], being ceded to [[Gaullica]] at the conclusion of the conflict. Anti-Gaullican sentiments, authoritarian administration, high taxation, along with a sharp rise in {{wp|republicanism|republican ideals}}, lead the region to [[1764 San Barzicia assembly|seek]] [[Writ of Dissolution (Nuxica)|independence]] as part of the [[United Colonies]] in 1764, joining the larger [[Asterian War of Secession]]. The resulting [[Treaty of Vicalvi]] granted the region its independence as part of the United Colonies in 1771. However the unity of the United Colonies faltered shortly thereafter, with [[Lorcania|the northern region]] separating by the end of the year, creating the first independent Nuxican nation state since the 16th-century.
The region would reunify under the {{wp|aristocracy|aristocratic}} and {{wp|oligarchy|oligarchic}} [[Nuxican Confederacy]] in 1772, buoyed by its vast {{wp|agriculture|agricultural}} exports as well as its continued practice of {{wp|Slavery in the United States|Bahian slavery}}. The region also embarked on a series of {{wp|Manifest Destiny|expeditions}} to the east in order to expand its borders, culminating in the [[Wars of the Expeditions (Nuxica)|Expeditionary Wars]]. Discontent with the established {{wp|Casta|societal order}}, rising {{wp|Nationalism#Latin America|mestizo nationalism}}, {{wp|authoritarianism}}, and unrest amongst the Bahian slave population led to the five-year [[Nuxican Civil War]]. The war resulted in the [[Battle of Santa Elegany|dissolution of the confederacy]] and the subsequent establishment of a liberal unitary parliamentary republic.
Though initially staunchly economically liberal and corporatist in nature the politics of the republic gradually became more secular and socialist, creating a slow boil of discontent amongst the largely {{wp|social conservatism|conservative}} [[Nuxican Armed Forces|armed forces]], large national corporations, and [[Solarian Catholic Church|Solarian Catholic]] masses. This discontent hit a fever pitch upon the election of the {{wp|social democracy|social democratic}} [[National Worker's Party]] (PNT) to government. Economic shortfalls coupled by the collapse of their coalition and a looming {{wp|vote of no confidence}} caused the PNT government to secretly reach out to the {{wp|syndicalism|syndicalist}} [[National Confederation of Labor]] for support. Fearing the rise of a radical leftist government, the military -- backed by the [[Solarian Catholic Church|Church]] and corporations -- executed a [[Christmas Revolution (Nuxica)|coup d'etat]] on Christmas Eve 1927 and installed {{wp|General|Gen.}} {{wp|Luis Miguel Sánchez Cerro|Juan Sebastián García}} as leader. Known as the ''[[Republic of Nuxica (1927-1989)|Nou Ordre]]'', the military junta would guide Nuxica through the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]] -- during which it was invaded by neighboring [[Sotirian State of Marirana|Marirana]], later partially occupying the nation -- as well as the [[Unnamed War|turbulent years following]]. The junta also used the nation's powerful status in the Asterias in order to suppress left-wing movements throughout the two continents. The junta ceded power to civilian authorities following a [[Dahlia Revolution|popular uprising]] in 1989.
Nuxica is a {{wp|Unitary state|unitary}} {{wp|semi-presidential system#subtypes|semi-presidential}} {{wp|multi-party system|multi-party}} {{wp|parliamentary republic}} comprised of seventeen provinces. The economy is largely {{wp|post-industrial society|post-industrial}}, though there is still significant industrial capacity within the country.

==Etymology==
==Etymology==
The name for the region is believed by most historians to come from the {{wp|Yucatec Maya language|Úuchmáa}} phrase "great heaven" or ''"nuxi' ka'anal"''. Historical records from the voyages of [[Assim Asterias]] highly suggest that the native tribes of the region seemed refer to the region as such, and subsequent records from the journals of both [[Miguel Andradas]] and [[Prosper Girabal|Pròsper Girabal]] confirm this. The region was, however, known as ''"Nuo Remana,"'' or New Remana, prior to its [[Asterian War of Secession|independence]] as part of the [[United Colonies]]. The region was renamed "Nuxica," an romanization of the Úuchmáa phrase, following the failure of the United Colonies to form a united government and the name has been in continual use since that time.


==History==
==History==
The history of Nuxica as a region dates back roughly 12,000 BCE when Native Asterians finally penetrated the dense jungles of the region in significant numbers and began establishing settlements within. The generally accepted 'first' organized society in the region came in the form of the Yáaxitaans, who created significant works of art and culture around 2000 BCE before logistical struggles, disease, and political infighting led to the collapse of their empire - though historians are split as to what landed the 'killing blow.' From the ashes of their empire arose the Nojochs and the Meyaletuns, who each united their spheres of influence under vast confederations. Eventually, the Nojochs were subsumed into the Meyaletun Empire, which expanded to fully encompass the region and maybe even some of the regions beyond who knows. Their dominance over the region remained unchallenged until the arrival of Euclean explorers to the region in the mid-to-late 15th Century. The arrival of Euclean explorers signaled a massive change for the region, as hundreds of thousands - if not millions - began to die of previously unseen Euclean diseases. In addition to this, bands of explorers - upon hearing about a 'great, wealthy, and heavenly realm' in the interior of the country - quickly began to undermine the Yáaxitaan imperial authority throughout the region. Through a bit of political intrigue, more than a few skirmishes, and a fracturing of the tribal alliances that make up the Yáaxitaan Empire, the region was nominally placed under the control of EUCLEAN COUNTRY* by the early-1500s. Complete and total authority remained elusive, with the coast and the interior - where the land is largely flat and useful for agriculture - being the control center for the region.


The region, by this time known as 'New EUCLEAN COUNTRY,' was predominantly used for agriculture, with cotton, some tropical fruits, sugar, and tobacco being produced with native labor as part of the encomienda system. High rates of deaths among the native population led to significant amounts of Bahian slaves to be imported into the region. Expeditions into the jungles and deserts of the interior led to the establishment of various settlements, and Solarian Catholic missionaries converted significant parts of the population. Due to the size of the region, as well as the thick, mountainous jungles and arid deserts, the overall costs of administration made the control of the region a bureaucratic nightmare for EUCLEAN COUNTRY. Tensions between the native/mestizo/Bahian population as a result of the 'Casta' system remained significant, with low-level violence relatively constant within the interior from 1705 onwards.

The Pereramonic Wars, as well as a rise of Enlightenment ideals within the upper echelons of the free mestizo population, effectively severed control of the EUCLEAN COUNTRY from the region. Revolutionaries, seeing that the overseas was preoccupied, raids from other countries on the region, as well as the revolutions occurring in neighboring regions, formed the 'Three Points' Army, freed many plantation 'workers,' and began to attempt to seize control. The Governor-General of the region requested support in the face of the massive uprising, but EUCLEAN COUNTRY was only able to send a token force to defend the region. This token force was eventually routed in a series of battles, with the remainder fleeing to OTHER PLACE by 1720. A directorial council republic was formed, the first incarnation of the independent Nuxican state since the 1500s.

The council republic period lasted 75 years, with the region becoming a confederation in 1795. The Confederation was, however, beset by issues over the level of governmental authority for the nation. In 1860 this came to a head when the federalists (predominantly in the east) attempt to secede from the rest of the nation, beginning the Nuxican Civil War. The civil war ends in a victory for forces fighting for a unitary state, ushering in a parliamentary republic. Though initially staunchly conservative and corporatist, the republic gradually liberalized and slowly drifted to the left politically. This disturbed the conservative oligarchs, aristocracy, and military of the country. Nevertheless, the parliamentary republic remained fairly stable until pre-GREAT WAR ECONOMIC DOWNTURN YEAR, when an economic collapse caused the center-left Acció Popular coalition to fragment. In order to save their beleaguered government, the AP agreed in a backroom deal to enter into a government with the anarcho-syndicalist Confederació Nacional del Treball in order to stave off a vote of no confidence. In response, the Armed Forces executed a coup d'etat in the form of the Christmas Revolution on Christmas Eve 1926 and established a military junta with Gen. Juan Sebastián García López at the head. The coup, while able to depose the civilian government, did not completely seize control of the country and forced the military to engage in urban combat with partisans. Somewhere down the line, the country may be dragged into the Great War on the side of the Grand Alliance by a neighboring country.

Civilian elections were nominally allowed in 1947, though the junta (now an 'advisory council') had the final say on who could run for elections. This led to a de-facto authoritarian one-party corporatist state known as the New Order that would last until the Dahlia Revolution in 1989, when free elections were allowed. Since then the country has grown in both population and economy under the guidance of the social democratic Moderate National Worker's Party (PON-M). It has also greatly expanded its international relations beyond the autarkic and isolationist Nou Ordre period. Discontent with the administration of the PON-M has slowly grown, however, and economic troubles, as well as a slow but gradually deteriorating security situation as a result of the Mariranan insurgency, threatens the current government's control on parliament.

The Republic of Nuxica (Floren: República de Nuxic; Lusitan: República do Nuxíca) is a nation located in Asteria Superior. It borders Lorcania, Cassier, and Chervolesia to the north, Duquesne to the east, Marirana and Eldmark to the south, and the Vehemens Ocean via Andradas's Bay to the west. It has a total population of 77,895,231 with it's capital city being Sant Picano. It's largest city is that of Carútagua. The nation is ethnically diverse, being split between Euclean, indigenous, Bahian, and mestizo ancestry.

Like many other nations in the region, Nuxica has been inhabited for thousands of years, with the Yáaxitaan, Nojoch, and later the Meyaletuns achieving dominance over the region. The Meyaletuns, in particular, succeeded in creating a cohesive nation-state that would reign for hundreds of years. Though first discovered by Assim Asteris in 1488, the region was colonized by Floren explorers from Remana in the mid 16th-century, who defeated the Meyaletuns and established the colony of Nuo Remana in 1590. Other Florenic powers would also establish colonies in the region, leading to low-scale conflict over competing boundaries. The region would be unified by decree of Nèstor I, becoming a dominion of the Floren Empire in 1709. The region would remain loyal to Florena during the Pereramonic Wars, being ceded to Gaullica at the conclusion of the conflict. Anti-Gaullican sentiments, authoritarian administration, high taxation, along with a sharp rise in republican ideals, lead the region to seek independence as part of the United Colonies in 1764, joining the larger Asterian War of Secession. The resulting Treaty of Vicalvi granted the region its independence as part of the United Colonies in 1771. However the unity of the United Colonies faltered shortly thereafter, with the northern region separating by the end of the year, creating the first independent Nuxican nation state since the 16th-century.

The region would reunify under the aristocratic and oligarchic Nuxican Confederacy in 1772, buoyed by its vast agricultural exports as well as its continued practice of Bahian slavery. The region also embarked on a series of expeditions to the east in order to expand its borders, culminating in the Expeditionary Wars. Discontent with the established societal order, rising mestizo nationalism, authoritarianism, and unrest amongst the Bahian slave population led to the five-year Nuxican Civil War. The war resulted in the dissolution of the confederacy and the subsequent establishment of a liberal unitary parliamentary republic.

Though initially staunchly economically liberal and corporatist in nature the politics of the republic gradually became more secular and socialist, creating a slow boil of discontent amongst the largely conservative armed forces, large national corporations, and Solarian Catholic masses. This discontent hit a fever pitch upon the election of the social democratic National Worker's Party (PNT) to government. Economic shortfalls coupled by the collapse of their coalition and a looming vote of no confidence caused the PNT government to secretly reach out to the syndicalist National Confederation of Labor for support. Fearing the rise of a radical leftist government, the military -- backed by the Church and corporations -- executed a coup d'etat on Christmas Eve 1927 and installed Gen. Juan Sebastián García as leader. Known as the Nou Ordre, the military junta would guide Nuxica through the Great War -- during which it was invaded by neighboring Marirana, later partially occupying the nation -- as well as the turbulent years following. The junta also used the nation's powerful status in the Asterias in order to suppress left-wing movements throughout the two continents. The junta ceded power to civilian authorities following a popular uprising in 1989.

Nuxica is a unitary semi-presidential multi-party parliamentary republic comprised of seventeen provinces. The economy is largely post-industrial, though there is still significant industrial capacity within the country. It's primary industries are financial services, energy production, agriculture, logging, and mining. Nuxica is a member of the Community of Nations, the JDF, ITO and GIFA.
