Terrafirma, officially the Republic of Terrafirma (Valdaurian: Republica de Terrafirma), is a sovereign state located in Elia Australis. It is bordered by Nadauro to the east, X to the south, and the Southern Medan Ocean to the west; in addition, it also has maritime borders with X to the north. Terrafirma also includes the island of Kairiha. The country's capital is Pesenàs, while its largest city is Fort Banister, which takes up much of eastern Kairiha, and is the country's busiest economic hub, while other notable cities include Seibal, X, and X. Most of Terrafirma's population is concentrated on Kairiha and cities along the mainland's coast, while much of the mainland itself is rural in nature.
The first signs of human life in Terrafirma were recorded as far back as 7000 BCE, with numerous tribes being formed in the area. However, the effects of the Catabole and the ensuing crisis would lead to multiple of them dying out, while the Kairihans and Ixil remained the dominant civilizations in Kairiha and mainland Terrafirma respectively, as they had been for many years before then. The first appearance of Calesians on what would become Terrafirma would come in 1578, when Frederic Banister, an explorer, was contracted by the Kingdom of Valdaur to search for resources to enrich themselves and their Hyacinthean allies. After coming back and sharing his findings, Valdaur's government was impressed to the point that they authorized efforts to colonize these lands, with the intent to harvest these resources. Notably, most of the people who joined the efforts were Frederican Gregorians, who were seeking a new home after facing heavy persecution in Valdaur lands over their religious beliefs. In 1632, as Hyacinthe annexed Valdaur, Terrafirma also came under the rule of the Hyacintheans.
In the late 18th century, with the spread of !Enlightenment ideals and news spreading of a revolution breaking out in Hyacinthe, the Terrafirmans decided to launch their own revolt, sparking the Terrafirman Revolution.
Terrafirma is a developing middle power with an emerging market, though some have also called it an emerging power in recent times, with major industries and exports including minerals, agriculture, tourism, and petroleum. However, native and black Terrafirmans suffer from economic and social disadvantages compared to their white counterparts, while the nation also suffers from corruption, poor prison conditions, and wealth imbalances. They are present in numerous political organizations, including the UC, the OES, and the CEAS, and often send personnel to participate in peacekeeping missions worldwide.
