'''Maracao''' ({{wp|Help:IPA/English|/'mærækaʊ/}}; <small>Lusitan pronunciation:</small> {{wp|Help:IPA/Portuguese|[maɾa'sə̃ʊ]}}), officially the '''Republic of Maracao''' ({{wp|Portuguese language|Lusitan}}: ''República de Maração'', {{wp|Taino language|Taino}}: ''Repablika te Marokey'') is a sovereign state within the [[Arucian Straits]] that comprises the entirety of the island of the same time and several smaller islands in the [[Arucian Strait]]. It shares maritime borders with [[Eldmark]], [[Imagua and the Assimas]], [[Marirana]] and [[Vilcasuamanas]] and is geographically a part of [[Asteria Superior]]. With a population of 4,886,077 in the 2017 census, Maracao is the second-most populous island state in the Arucian, behind [[Sanslumiere]]. It has an area of X, making it also the second-largest island state in the Arucian by area.
The first recorded inhabitance in Maracao were the Nati peoples, a subgroup of the broader Taino peoples that inhabited the pre-colonial Arucian, around the 2nd century BC. Lusitan colonists from [[Florena]] arrived and colonised the island in the 16th century, establishing the modern-day capital, Porto Leste, in 1545. Maracao would be utilised for its profitable sugar industry and also for the export and import of slaves during the Asterian slave trade, where the native Nati peoples were treated extremely poorly by the Floren settlers. When slavery was widely abolished in 1740, the colony of Maracao suffered economically, but became popular with upper-class Florens as an Arucian retreat location. The island was forcefully annexed [[Salvatore Renzi]]'s dictatorship in Marirana, issuing the Porto Leste Declaration in 1821. Sixty years of oppressive Marinaran Mariraran rule culminated in independence following its loss in the [[War of the Arucian]] in 1884, establishing the Empire of Maracao under [[Adelmar I of Maracao|Adelmar I]]. Years of squandering of wealth, decline in power, and oppression towards the lower-class populace preceded Maracao's entry into the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]] on the side of the Grand Alliance in 1926, with Marirana occupying the island fully by 1930, by which Adelmar had fled to [[Eldmark]]. A socialist revolution in 1933 ousted the Mariranan occupiers and established the modern Republic of Maracao, modelling itself off of [[Swetania]]. Democracy flourished initially but was continually undermined by corruption and scandal. In 1995, current president Adão Costa was sworn into office, and by 2000 many of the democratic institutions in the country were suspended, with the constitution itself being suspended in 2004.
Currently, Maracao rates extremely poorly in democratic indexes and is considered a {{wp|military dictatorship}} by most, however its strategic location in the Arucian Strait often provides leverage for its continued relevance in global geopolitics. Maracao is a member of the [[Community of Nations]] and the [[Association for International Socialism]], and is commonly subject to influence from nearby [[Chervolesia]], whom it shares many agreements with.

Maracao (/'mærækaʊ/; Lusitan pronunciation: [maɾa'sə̃ʊ]), officially the Republic of Maracao (Lusitan: República de Maração, Taino: Repablika te Marokey) is a sovereign state within the Arucian Straits that comprises the entirety of the island of the same time and several smaller islands in the Arucian Strait. It shares maritime borders with Eldmark, Imagua and the Assimas, Marirana and Vilcasuamanas and is geographically a part of Asteria Superior. With a population of 4,886,077 in the 2017 census, Maracao is the second-most populous island state in the Arucian, behind Sanslumiere. It has an area of X, making it also the second-largest island state in the Arucian by area.

The first recorded inhabitance in Maracao were the Nati peoples, a subgroup of the broader Taino peoples that inhabited the pre-colonial Arucian, around the 2nd century BC. Lusitan colonists from Florena arrived and colonised the island in the 16th century, establishing the modern-day capital, Porto Leste, in 1545. Maracao would be utilised for its profitable sugar industry and also for the export and import of slaves during the Asterian slave trade, where the native Nati peoples were treated extremely poorly by the Floren settlers. When slavery was widely abolished in 1740, the colony of Maracao suffered economically, but became popular with upper-class Florens as an Arucian retreat location. The island was forcefully annexed Salvatore Renzi's dictatorship in Marirana, issuing the Porto Leste Declaration in 1821. Sixty years of oppressive Marinaran Mariraran rule culminated in independence following its loss in the War of the Arucian in 1884, establishing the Empire of Maracao under Adelmar I. Years of squandering of wealth, decline in power, and oppression towards the lower-class populace preceded Maracao's entry into the Great War on the side of the Grand Alliance in 1926, with Marirana occupying the island fully by 1930, by which Adelmar had fled to Eldmark. A socialist revolution in 1933 ousted the Mariranan occupiers and established the modern Republic of Maracao, modelling itself off of Swetania. Democracy flourished initially but was continually undermined by corruption and scandal. In 1995, current president Adão Costa was sworn into office, and by 2000 many of the democratic institutions in the country were suspended, with the constitution itself being suspended in 2004.

Currently, Maracao rates extremely poorly in democratic indexes and is considered a military dictatorship by most, however its strategic location in the Arucian Strait often provides leverage for its continued relevance in global geopolitics. Maracao is a member of the Community of Nations and the Association for International Socialism, and is commonly subject to influence from nearby Chervolesia, whom it shares many agreements with.
