Fluvannia (officially the Federated Principality of Fluvannia) is a nation comprised of three discontiguous regions in eastern Poyoinen, bordered by the Sarasta Ocean to the east and south, and Dunferm to the west. The capital, Oshkosh is located in the northwestern part of the country, along the shore of Lake Winnebago. The nation's largest city is Rochester, located in the smallest of the three regions, the westerly-located County of Monroe. Other major cities include Charlottesville, Green Bay, Appleton, and Scottsville. Formed in the early 19th century from what had been a personal union of three separate polities, Fluvannia is as a result a large and geographically diverse nation, inhabited by approximately 213.84 million people as of the 2020 census. A federal constitutional monarchy, Fluvannia is comprised of two duchies and a county, each of which possess a high degree of autonomy. Unlike the case of many constitutional monarchies, the Fluvannian monarch, titled the Crown Prince, plays an active but nonpartisan role as the head of the nation's executive branch. Popular democracy is exercised by the legislature's lower house, the House of Delegates. Over 8.9 million people live in the Greater Rochester area, the largest in the country, which has functioned as a hub for trade since medieval times.
Etymology
Fluvannian territory has been inhabited for millennia by various peoples; a reference to the "populus qui colunt fluvium annum" ("the people who cultivate the yearly river"), describing the villages along the Rivanna River, shows that agriculture has been associated with the Charlottesville area since antiquity. In the north, references to the hunter-gatherer Viinebeiko people -- often in the context of pillaging -- can be found in Iron Age manuscripts. The Vinnibeiko name would eventually be fluvanized as Winnebago, and the Duchy of Winnebago today serves as the home for the majority of the Vinns, the modern ethnicity descended from the Vinnibeiko tribes.
History
Over time, various feudal realms arose in each of the three regions, resulting in a complex network of intermarriages, rival claims, and warfare. Sometimes these realms would turn to outsiders for help; one such marital alliance, between Thomas, Duke of Piedmont and Joanna, Countess of Monroe in 1213, would lay the groundwork for the modern Fluvannian state. The Duchy of Winnebago would join the personal union in 1620, when the last of the Kaukaunainen line died without issue; vassal counts, unable to settle on one of their own as new sovereign, instead decided to offer the ducal throne to a powerful ally, Richard, Duke of Piedmont. A long process of noble marriages and inheritances brought increasing power to the respective nobles of the now-Fluvannian constituencies, but in the Enlightenment Era much of this power was devolved to local and regional governments. The Act of Union of 1826 saw the Duchy of Winnebago, the Duchy of Piedmont, and the County of Monroe united under a single legal crown.
Geography
From the boreal forests near the Arctic Circle, to the temperate Sarasta Ocean coastline of the Duchy of Piedmont, to the humid boreal savannah of the Poyoinean interior, the Fluvannian landscape plays host to a number of different biomes.
