The Veton Republic (Javol: Republica vetonien, pronounced: [rə'pi.bli.kə və.tu'njen]; Iverdonian: République vétonienne, pronounced: [ʁe.py.blik ve.to.njɛn]), commonly referred to as Vetonia (Javol: Vetoní, pronounced: [vətu'ni]; Iverdonian: Vétonie, pronounced: [ve.to.ni]) is a sovereign state organised as a federal parliamentary constitutional republic in southern Plateia. The country borders Castelana to the west, xx to the east, Aesculia to the north-east and the Lautan Ocean to the south. The country covers an area of approximately 192,286 square kilometres (74,242 square miles) with a mostly temperate, oceanic climate. It has a population of over 23.6 million people. Its capital and largest city is Andraid, with 1.7 million residents; other major cities include ?, ? and ?.

Vetonia is divided into four constituent states (païs in Javol, pays in Iverdonian), Vellavia, Tosandria, Iverdonia and Rodenia. These states are divided by language, Javol-speaking Vellavia and Tosandria, Iverdonian-speaking Iverdonia and Rodenese-speaking Rodenia. There are also significant minorities of !Celtic Silurians in Vellavia and Tosandria, as well as of Tarbel in both Iverdonia and Rodenia.

old history

Vetonian independence from the Aesculian Empire was declared in 1911 by ? and ?, although its independence would not be recognised until the signature of the Treaty of XX that ended the Great Continental War. After independence, a democratic constitution was adopted in 1916 and in 1920, the territory of modern-day Rodenia was annexed following the xx conflict. The period between the 1930s to 1974 was marked by heightened tensions between the country's various ethnic groups fueled by unequal economic development and linguistic differences between communities. Far-reaching reforms enacted in 1958 and implemented during the 1960s mollified ethnic conflict and resulted in the transition of the country to a federal system. Ethnic and territorial tensions have subsued but continue to mark the country's political and social cleavages (pillarisation).

Today, Vetonia is a developed country with a mixed-market economy. It ranks amongst the highest in international indexes of education, health care, quality of life, life expectancy at birth and human development, as well as happiness.
