'''Gothica''', both officially and formally referred to as '''the Greater Gothic Empire''' ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin Latin]: ''Magnum Imperium Gothicum'') and informally called '''Greater Gothica''', is an intercontinental sovereign state in the globe. With an area of around 85,990,652 km<sup>2</sup> (33,201,176 mi<sup>2</sup>), it is the largest country in the world by area, spanning around 75% of the Earth's inhabited land area, four continents, all 24 time zones, and borders five sovereign countries. The Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic and Indian Oceans served as Gothica's maritime borders, while in Africa south of the Equator it borders the Kongo Clique and the Azanian Clique. It has running border disputes with the Trans-Atlantic Commonwealth in its Pacific Northwest holdings due to the annexation of the currently-defunct states of Cascadia and the Columbian Commonwealth, which posed a potential threat to Trans-Atlantic stability and still continues on to this day. Around 57.602 trillion subjects live in the Empire's 1,400 districts, which makes Greater Gothica the most populous country in the world. Its capital and largest mega-city is World Capital Gothica (New Rome); other major urban areas include Ahmagards, Árheimar, Draculsburg, Gobbellin, Kaisergard, Katosgard, Mikilgard, Saint Putinsburg, Sigvaldsburg, Stahlgard, Theodoro, Unterburg, Vlachensgard, Walpurgisgard, among others. | '''Gothica''', both officially and formally referred to as '''the Greater Gothic Empire''' ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin Latin]: ''Magnum Imperium Gothicum'') and informally called '''Greater Gothica''', is an intercontinental sovereign state in the globe.

Gothica, both officially and formally referred to as the Greater Gothic Empire (Latin: Magnum Imperium Gothicum) and informally called Greater Gothica, is an intercontinental sovereign state in the globe. With an area of around 85,990,652 km2 (33,201,176 mi2), it is the largest country in the world by area, spanning around 75% of the Earth's inhabited land area, four continents, all 24 time zones, and borders five sovereign countries. The Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic and Indian Oceans served as Gothica's maritime borders, while in Africa south of the Equator it borders the Kongo Clique and the Azanian Clique. It has running border disputes with the Trans-Atlantic Commonwealth in its Pacific Northwest holdings due to the annexation of the currently-defunct states of Cascadia and the Columbian Commonwealth, which posed a potential threat to Trans-Atlantic stability and still continues on to this day. Around 57.602 trillion subjects live in the Empire's 1,400 districts, which makes Greater Gothica the most populous country in the world. Its capital and largest mega-city is World Capital Gothica (New Rome); other major urban areas include Ahmagards, Árheimar, Draculsburg, Gobbellin, Kaisergard, Katosgard, Mikilgard, Saint Putinsburg, Sigvaldsburg, Stahlgard, Theodoro, Unterburg, Vlachensgard, Walpurgisgard, among others.
Human remnants, survivors of the massive thermonuclear outburst in the third decade of M2, re-emerged after resettling themselves in nearly post-contaminated soil following their confrontation with the wasteland environment. These settlements, followed by a slow and steady reconstruction of what was left of human civilization following the great ordeal, were often met with attacks from wasteland peoples, among them being the tribes that later make up the Goths that emerged as a significant people since the arrival of the semi-mythical Queen Basina (ca. 2726 to 4016?) and are to persist to this day (having been obviously confused with either the ancient Germanic tribe or the late 20th century post-punk music subculture and its later derivatives/types, as the latter is wholly more compatible with the post-apocalyptic peoples).
One of the post-thermonuclear wasteland states to rise in the early fourth millennium per the era of the Radioactive Ice Age was a loose confederation of Gothic tribal kingdoms under the nominal suzerainty of Great Oium, followed by several other states that developed across the Old World. Shifting from neo-paganism and chthonic nature worship since the days of its High King Ottokar, Great Oium in 4855 ultimately embraced Heterodoxy when High King Valamir the Great, converted from neo-paganism in response to a threat from the Northern States led by Nodengard where he forcibly subdued the 'greykin' witches as the cause and profiteers of internal division. At an unknown time, Great Oium has seen a general revival, most especially of Gothic culture as well as aesthetic derived from the subculture, starting with the re-emergence of types such as Fairy Goth, Tribal Goth, and Medieval Goth, to say the least, and a profound interest in music and the arts, thus beginning the synthesis of pre- and post-cataclysmic wasteland dark alternative scene cultures/subcultures that defined the kind of 'Gothic' culture for the following millennia. Since the fifth millennium, Great Oium disintegrated into smaller warring cliques, shortly prior to the Finngolian-Hwan Yoke during the hazardous Great Radioactive Winter of 128.M4-883.M5, until they were liberated and finally reunified by the Crown of Eisenheim under another loose confederation called the Old Dominion as of the early sixth millennium. in 22nd May 6420, Armand crowned himself Emperor of All Gothica and established the Greater Gothic Empire from the defeated rival Gothic states and the territories released by the declining empires of Finngolia and Hwan, and under his successors the country had significantly expanded through wasteland reclamation, conquest and direct annexation to become what the country is now, stretching across the entire Eastern Hemisphere from one end of the North Merican continent on the west to the other one of the East.
