Eskavia (Eskavian: Eskävit), officially the Eskavian Confederacy (Eskavian: Kopläjukvo Eskävit), is a sovereign state in Elia Boreal. It lies between the Free States to the X and the Alconian Ocean to the west.

Human habitation in Eskavia dates from approximately 12,000 years ago. The Sivo River Valley has hosted complex societies since the emergence of the Attap civilization c. 2100 BCE, and is widely recognized as one of the world's seven independent cradles of civilization. The Attap were followed by a number of societies including the Mjetlumak, Plakossu, and Eska. The Sivoan world underwent a rapid societal collapse c. 300 CE, after which the Eska, from whom the modern Eskavic peoples are descended, established themselves as politically, economically, and culturally dominant in the region. Between c. 600 and 1080, Ancient Eskavia experienced a golden age characterized by the construction of massive earthworks and a flourishing of artistic activity.

...and the Catabole event of 1352,

During the Postclassical period, Eskavian society restructured itself around a patchwork of independent city-states By the time of Calesian first contact in 15XX, most of Eskavia was organized into a loose confederacy led by the hegemonic Kingdom of Väsjomok. The Confederacy maintained its independence through the early colonial era through diplomatic maneuvering, political centralization, and Calesianization. Eskavian leaders successfully exploited Calesian imperial competition in order to preserve the balance of power in Elia Boreal and prevent encroachment by Calesian settlers. Following the conclusion of the Twelve Years' War in 1785, Eskavia was brought under the protection of Waldrich to counter the rising colonial influence of Falland and the Free States.
