Namsa (Korean: 嵐寺), officially the Republic of Namsa (Korean: 嵐寺民國, RR: Namsa Minguk), is a country comprising the island of Chungbuk, as well as Songdo and several minor archipelagos. Namsa is located in the northern Caribbean where the Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean meet. It is east of the Fishui Peninsula (Mexico), south of both the American state of Hoatian and the Dibo islands and west of Dongsang. Sohang is the largest city and capital; other major cities include Donghang and Daeya. The official area of the Republic of Namsa is 109,884 km2 (42,426 sq mi) (without the territorial waters). The main island of Chungbuk is the largest island in Namsa and in the Caribbean, with an area of 104,556 km2 (40,369 sq mi). Namsa is the most populous country in the Caribbean, with over 20 million inhabitants.
The territory that is now Namsa was inhabited by the Taino people from the 4th millennium BC until Eastern colonization in the 15th century. From the 15th century, it was a colony of Ming until the Beijing treaty of 1520, when Namsa was ceded to the Korean Empire as part of the feud regarding the Gwanha canal. During these years, the island had only been settled by few Chinese pirates, and it was not until 1537 that Korean settlers began mass-migration to the island.
In 12 October 1899, military commanders carried out a coup and declared a sovereign Republic. The country was formally recognized as a sovereign state following a declaration by the Korean Empire regarding its status in 1905. In 1959, it adopted the current consitution, which established the current parliamentary system and a unicameral legislature.
Namsa is a developed country, ranked 3rd on the Human Development Index in the Americas. It is a member of the OECD, NAFTA, and NATO. Its economy ranks as the world's 15th largest economy by nominal GDP. Its economy primarily relies on the manufacturing and banking sectors. It ranks as the 3rd easiest nation to do business in on the ease of doing business index.
