Ausonia (French: Ausonie), officially the Ausonian Commonwealth, is a sovereign nation in southwestern Adria, with parts of its territory in northwestern Alfica. It is bounded by the Eurythic Ocean and Bay of Cornouaille to its west and southwest, ?? to its northeast, Ligadin and ?? to its southeast and ?? and the United Republic to its south by its enclaves of Litera and Cievta. It is a federal republic comprised of thirty provinces and two free cities, in addition to five overseas territories scattered throughout the world, with Châlons as the seat of the federal administration. The country's topography is largely varied between its southern mountain chains, including some of the tallest mountains in Adria, and the flat northern plains, where a slight majority of its population of 97.8 million reside.
Modern humans first arrived to the territory that would become metropolitan Ausonia by around 40,000 years ago, with the territory largely inhabited by Ausones throughout the Iron Age. The Remian Empire would conquer the territory in 70 BCE, bringing their religion, language, and cultural traditions in the ensuing period, influencing and combining with the cultures of the natives to form a distinct Ausone-Remic culture. The collapse of the empire in the 5th century CE would lead to a migration by Germanic peoples, establishing tribal confederations that would be the basis of powerful kingdoms, duchies, and baronies, consolidating into a unified kingdom in the twelfth century CE.
Despite unification, the Kingdom was a highly decentralized feudal state in which royal authority was barely felt. Power was instead held by the various feudal magnates, who resented royal usurpation of their traditional rights and privileges, and formed alliances from which to secure their interests. The Protestant Reformation and the emergence of the Ausonic Reformed Church exacerbated divides, until the reign of the child-king Francis III and his increasingly-autocratic Regency Council, which culminated in the War of the Provinces. The victory of the feudal magnates led to the formation of the Commonwealth, with the monarchy largely stripped of its powers in a highly liberal system of its time. This period also coincided with Ausonia's rise as Adria's dominant cultural, political, and military power, with a colonial empire encompassing much of ?? and ??.
In 1815, a series of bread riots caused by famine broke out in multiple cities across Ausonia, whose brutal suppression at the hands of the confederal military triggered a revolution led primarily by the bourgeoisie allied with the lower classes. The resulting constitution would confirm the present federal system while guaranteeing universal suffrage under a republican government. With numerous minor additions, the constitution has survived numerous crises and remains in force to this day. Ausonia would reach its economic and military zenith (the Pax Ausonica) around this time, becoming the first nation to industrialize and the world's foremost power throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. To this day, Ausonian influence can be observed in the legal and political systems of its former colonies, with Ausonian culture remaining globally influential.
A largely Remic country, Ausonia today is a cosmopolitan, religiously diverse, and multilingual society, with numerous regional identities stemming from linguistic differences and the Catholic-Protestant axis. Though a majority of Ausonians are speakers of various Ausonic languages, Ausonian identity is rooted in a common historical and geographical background and shared principle of state sovereignty.
Ausonia is also a developed, high-income economy, dominated primarily by the service and financial sectors. It is one of the top countries in the world in terms of economic competitiveness, thanks to its advanced infrastructure and strong work ethic. Owing to their individualistic mindset forged over the centuries, there is a strong emphasis on self-reliance and personal responsibility, with welfare services generally small compared to its neighbors. Despite this, Ausonians generally enjoy a high standard of living and quality of life.
