For a brief period of time after independence in 1915, '''Swinas''' kept the '''Riamese''' currency. However, with the help from the '''Riamese''', the country soon established its own currency, the '''Swish Ram''', named after an old goat religion that was practiced by the indigenous people of '''Swinas'''. The '''Swish Ram''' quickly became the main currency used throughout the country, and it was widely accepted by merchants and businesses. In addition to the '''Swish Ram''', the country also established the '''Swish Buckling''', which was used for the paying of non-dollar increments. This system helped to ensure that the country's economy was stable and that the currency was easily accessible to all citizens. Today, the '''Swish Ram''' and the '''Swish Buckling''' are still in use and continue to play an important role in the country's economy.
Gold was the common currency in Swinas until 1788, when the absolute monarchy system would be abolished, and many would call for further modernization. So, the first Prime Minister of Swinas would call for the creation of an official common currency. The Swinnic Ram would be created as the paper currency of Swinas, and the Swinnic Buckling would be the metal currency of Swinas. Both were backed by gold.

'''Swinas''' has taken various measures to preserve and protect its natural resources. One of the key steps taken by the government is the establishment of national parks and nature reserves to safeguard the country's flora and fauna. '''Swinas''' has a total of 28 protected areas covering a vast area of land, including forests, wetlands, and marine ecosystems.
Swinas contains 2 major rivers, them being the Dandora and the Kishwara. The Dandora is located in the north of Swinas and borders the Talsar Sea. The Kishwara, meanwhile, would be located at the West of Swinas, bordering the Parthenean Coast. These two rivers would be where the Duchy of Cresta (which would go on to unify Swinas), and the Duchy of Wheaton would be founded.
 
Furthermore, '''Swinas''' has implemented strict regulations on logging and mining to prevent deforestation and environmental degradation. The country has also invested in sustainable forestry practices, such as selective logging and reforestation programs, to ensure the long-term health of its forests. The government has also encouraged the use of alternative energy sources, such as solar and wind power, to reduce the reliance on non-renewable energy sources.
 
In addition, '''Swinas''' has implemented policies to reduce pollution and improve air and water quality. The government has implemented regulations on vehicle emissions, and industrial facilities are required to meet stringent environmental standards. The country has also invested in wastewater treatment facilities to ensure that wastewater is treated before being released back into the environment.
 
Overall, '''Swinas''' is committed to preserving and protecting its natural resources for future generations. The country's efforts to promote sustainable development have not only helped to preserve its unique ecosystems but have also created new opportunities for eco-tourism and sustainable economic growth.
 
'''Swinas''' is blessed with two major rivers, the '''Dandora''' and the '''Kishwara''', which play a vital role in the country's ecosystem and economy.
 
The '''Dandora River''' is the longer of the two, stretching over 600 kilometers from its source in the highlands of the north to its outlet in the '''Talsar Sea'''. Along its course, the '''Dandora''' provides a lifeline for both human and animal communities, with countless towns and villages settled along its banks. The river also supports a wide range of agricultural activities, with farmers utilizing its fertile floodplains for rice, sugarcane, and other crops.
 
The '''Kishwara River''', on the other hand, is relatively shorter, but no less important. It begins in the hills of the west and flows through dense forested areas and rocky terrain, creating stunning waterfalls and providing habitats for a variety of wildlife. The river is also a critical source of water for many communities in the region, supplying clean water for drinking, cooking, and washing.
 
Despite their importance, both rivers are facing numerous threats, including pollution from industrial activities, agricultural runoff, and urbanization. To combat these threats, the '''Swinas''' government has implemented several measures to protect the rivers and their surrounding ecosystems. These measures include the creation of protected areas and conservation zones, the establishment of monitoring programs, and the enactment of laws and regulations to control pollution and other harmful activities.
 
The government has also encouraged community-based initiatives to protect and conserve the rivers. For example, local organizations have been established to clean up the rivers and their surroundings, plant trees to prevent soil erosion and promote biodiversity, and educate the public about the importance of protecting these precious resources.
 
Overall, the '''Dandora''' and '''Kishwara''' Rivers are essential components of '''Swinas'''' natural heritage, and their protection and conservation are vital for the country's sustainable development.

Swinas, or, the Kingdom of Swinas is a constitutional monarchy composed of 7 autonomous districts. The capital of the Kingdom of Swinas is Cape Cresta City, where the nation was also founded under the "Duchy of Cresta" name. The nation is located in Hiraethia and is bordered by Vultesia, Wellsenfaille, and the Eldmoran Empire. The Kingdom of Swinas is a member of the Vedoti Pact and shares good relations with the Hylian Republic. The population of the Kingdom of Swinas is 42,299,153 according to a census conducted 2 years ago.

Etymology

Though the exact Etymology of Swinas is unknown, many speculate it to be related to the German word "Schwine", which means Pig.

History

The Kingdom of Swinas would not be officially established under the Swinas name until the year 1500 A.D. However, the Kingdom's Predecessor, the Duchy of Cresta, would be founded in about 1000 A.D. The nation was a key player in early Swinnic History and would be the duchy to officially unite Swinas. Over the span of 200 years, duchies in Swinas would slowly conquer they're neighbors until there were 3, now kingdoms in Swinas.

The Duchy of Cresta in particular had evolved into the Kingdom of East Swinas, encompassing a majority of the area's temperate land, as well as some desert land. By the year 1400 A.D. the Kingdom of East Swinas would declare war on the Kingdom of Central Swinas. The war lasted 3 years, and in the end, East Swinas came out on top. The Kingdom of West Swinas exploited the situation in the Kingdom of Central Swinas by conquering some of the Kingdom's Western Territories. At this point, the populous of both Swinas' wanted to unite into a singular Swinas. However, the other side wanted to be the one to accomplish the goal, and not the other.

A period of peace would surround the area and during that time, the Kingdom of East Swinas would conquer what is now known today as Nordinsel. This island would be useful in the coming Swinnic Unification War, which would happen just 60 years after the integration of the island into East Swinas. The Kingdom of West Swinas would also make moves to march westward towards the Parthenean Coast, 80 years before the Swinnic Unification War. By around 1500 A.D, both Kingdom's were prepared to go to war with each other and united Swinas.

On December 26th, 1494, The Kingdom of West Swinas declared war on the Kingdom of East Swinas. Though both kingdom's had similar army sizes, the island of Nordinsel would be used as a launching point for a Eastern Naval Landing on West Swinas. The Naval Invasion surprised West Swinas, and they were forced to take more defensible positions in the desert. The Kingdom of East Swinas had Arid trained men, and sent them to attack the key city of Allenschied. The battle was brutal, and the East Swinns were almost kicked out of the city, but the Kingdom of East Swinas won. At this point, the Kingdom of West Swinas lost all of they're moral, and surrendered, uniting Swinas.

Following the achievement of unifying Swinas, the nation would remain an Absolute Monarchy until 1788, when many within Swinas pushed for the creation of a constitution that limited the power of the king. After refusal of King Jonas to comply and create a constitution, his son, who was in favor of a constitution, couped his father, and the Leistungsbegrenzung came into effect. Over the course of the next 50 years, more and more democratic reforms would restrict the power of the king, until the king became a figurehead, though never being completely removed.

The king never being completely removed was a pressing issue for many Left-Wing Party's in the early 1900's. Party's such as the Swinnic Communist Party would advocate for the complete removal of the king, claiming that it was a shadow of the authoritarian rule Swinas was once under. This was not the only issue the Swinnic Communists had. In fact, this was probably one of their less important issues. The main complaint from the Swinnic Communist Party was that quote "greedy businessmen" controlled the country.

Eventually, rising tensions led to many Communist Militias rising up in 1921. 3 days later, the militias would unite under the People's Republic of Swinas name. The Civil War would go on to be the bloodiest conflict in Swinnic History. Some elements of the Civil War still impact the Kingdom of Swinas to this day. Luckily, the Kingdom of Swinas would defeat the communists, as told on the Swish Civil War page.

Following the victory of the Kingdom of Swinas, efforts were made to neutralize the remaining leftist threat in Western Swinas. The Kingdom also made small reforms to prevent another socialist uprising in the future. Reserve Forces of the Swinnic Civil War were called into Western Swinas to help neutralize the socialists.

Military

The Swinnic Military has been an integral part of the nation since the Duchy of Cresta's inception. Today, the Swinnic Military has 3 branches; the Swinnic Ground Forces, the Swinnic Air Force, the Swinnic Navy. Each branch usually has sub-divisions within it, such as the Swinnic Air Force, which has a Bomber, Close Air Support, Para-Trooper, and Fighter sub-division. The Swinnic Ground Forces include an Artillery, Tank, Anti-Air, and Infantry sub-division. The Swinnic Navy includes the Coast Guard, Naval Air, and Marine sub-division. The main Swinnic Navy is what you would expect from a navy. The Swinnic Military also contains a special forces division, the Spezialeinheiten.
