Albeinland, officially the Commonwealth of Albeinland, is an insular country located on the continent of Beria, sharing a maritime boundary with Sileria to the northwest and having a coastline on the Arthurean Strait to the south, the Telmeric Sea to the north and the North Agric Ocean to the southwest. With 6,472,318 inhabitants and 182,054 km² (70,291 sq mi), Albeinland is one of the smallest countries of the world.
The current Albish territory is populated since the Paleolithic era, with the first Foranic peoples migrating to the region in the 5th century BCE. The island would be annexed by the Cambran Empire years later in 85 CE, becoming an important trade hub due to its strategic location in northwestern Beria. After the fall of the Cambran Empire, Albeinland would fracture itself into various petty kingdoms and tribes, leaving the area open for a series of intensive Cuthish immigrations during the 3rd and 4th centuries. The new Cuthish population consolidated themselves as the new regional elite, with a series of merchant republics, market guilds and college towns being established. The fragility of these states led the creation of the Albish League at the end of the 9th century, a commercial and defensive pact to ensure the independence of all members, leading to total Albish domination over trade routes in the Telmeric Sea and Agric Ocean, with the Loubergian nobility setting the foundation for the creation of the modern Albish language.
After the Albish defeat at the First Cutho-Albish War in 1582, a series of nationalist movements overthrew the previous maritime republics and unified them into the Commonwealth of Albeinland, the first republic of its kind. The Commonwealth saw the expansion of Albish trade activities outside Beria with the creation of trade outposts in Pamira and Capthora, and established one of the first colonial empires of Aurorum. Internal disputes led to the end of the republic and the establishment of an enlightened monarchy in 1732, with the 18th century being known as a golden era as the country stayed in a good economic situation whilst being at the centre of most philosophic and scientific discussions of the era. However, further political instability led to the Albish Spring in 1786, with a new democratic republic taking place.
The 1800s were marked by extensive industrialization, urbanization and expansion of colonial holdings. Albeinland was one of the major combatants of the Great War, with its navy seeing action in every corner of the world. The end of the war led to various independence movements in its domains, especially Sileria, with decolonization happening gradually over the century. After the end of the Melasian Crisis, Albeinland was one of the founder-states, alongside Mascylla, of the Berean Defence Treaty Association, acting as the bastion of the free world against the Mageiros League and the Perekovka Program. The country was severely hit in the general crisis of 1986, having been recovered since then.
Today, Albeinland is a developed country with a high-income economy, being regarded as one of the main colonial empires in history and having its language and culture present on every continent. Its capital and primate city is Castelby. The political framework is operated under a federal parliamentary republic with the Lord-Protector being the chief of state while the Prime Minister is the chief of government, and has as its national legislature the bicameral General Assembly, which has as its lower house the House of Commons and upper house the State Council. Given the nature of its political system, many specialists consider Albeinland to be a crowned republic. Currently, Albeinland is a member of the Assembly of Nations and the Berean Defence Treaty Association, among other international organizations.
