Hesperien, officially the Kingdom of Hesperien is a fledgling sovereign state located in Western Rohane. Occupying 2,134,113 km2 of land, the country is mostly and predominantly flat and luscious, with plains in the north and West and low hills in the East. The country is known for having high religious tolerance, as well as being one of the first countries to outlaw slavery. The country is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy, headed by Jacques II, and Prime Minister Jean Lafayette. It holds the Gulf of Rohane as an essential medium for trade, and has excellent relations with Vozh. The country's capital is Georgesville, which is also the country's largest city. With a population of 31 million, the country is one of the largest countries in the world.

Etymology

The name Hesperien comes from the Late Auric Hespericum* for the West. This was the moniker used by the Aurico-Gallic refugees of Aurica, but after migrating across the Emporic Ocean c. late 6th to early 7th centuries, they had nicknamed the newly settled land said name, and it had become incorporated in the languages circulated in that region.

History

Before 2700 BC, the linguistic and cultural distribution in Hesperien is uncertain, as according to archaeological and historical evidences have been attested to be completely uncertain, as lack of the legacy of the Pre-Myro-Rohanians is apparent.

Hesperic prosperity

The country now known as Hesperien was inhabited by Myro-Rohanian peoples until the Great Migration in 600 AD, when they were massively displaced by the arriving population. The Myro-Rohanians had an urheimat of unknown origin, yet historians have been able to decipher their language in detail, as Common Rohanian is somewhat related to Auric.


It has been commonly ascertained that the Myro-Rohanians lived in modest roundhouses predating 950 BC - and evidence has been presented of written language being implemented somewhat later; with an alphabet borrowed from Auric. By the 10th century, several collective feudal settlements had sprung up having a common identity, yet having apathy to seal the peninsula. This continued until the reign of Augustus Hespericus (birth name Guillaume), standardising a formal currency in 1101, and putting a once divided region onto the world stage.

Contemporary depiction of Augustus Hespericus

Historians have still not been able to note how the expansive Hesperic Empire under Augustus Hespericus was able to subjugate the tense nomadic bands of the East, as they had been able to coordinate their attacks successfully without fail for years before this, yet they unanimously have declared that he was a strong leader who prioritised his military and economy.

Climate

Hesperien's climate has been ascertained to be luscious and flat at most.
