Various indigenous peoples have inhabited what is now Cassier for thousands of years before Euclean colonization. Beginning in the 16th century, [[Estmere| Estmerian]] and [[Gaullica|Gaullican]] expeditions explored and later settled along the west coast. Gaullica would come to colonize and control much of what is today western Cassier, and by 1757 the nation would be officially consolidated as a colony of Gaullica. Cassier embarked on a vigorous expansion across Asteria Superior throughout the 19th century, acquiring new territories, displacing native Asterian tribes, and gradually admitting new provinces until it spanned the continent by 1849. By the end of the century, Cassier had extended across much of Asteria Superior, and its economy, driven in large part by the Industrial Revolution, began to soar. Cassier would not become a fully independent nation until the Declaration of Independence (Gaullican: Déclaration d'indépendance) was officially ratified by the Cassien National Assembly on October 14, 1920 which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on Gaullica. | Various indigenous peoples have inhabited what is now Cassier for thousands of years before Euclean colonization.

Cassier, officially the Republic of Cassier (Gaullican: République de Cassier) is a country in the northern part of Asteria Superior. Its provinces and three territories extend from the Vehemens Ocean to the Lumine Ocean and northward into the Florian Ocean, covering 7.19 million square kilometres, making it the world's largest country in total area. Cassier shares its southern borders with Lorcania, Nuxica, and Chervolesia. Cassier's capital is Nouevelle-Rayenne, and its three largest metropolitan areas are Andade, Saint-Marie, and Barnier.
As a whole, Cassier is sparsely populated, the majority of its land area being dominated by forest and tundra. Its population is highly urbanized, with over 80 percent of its inhabitants concentrated in large and medium-sized cities. Cassier's climate varies widely across its vast area, ranging from arctic weather in the north, to hot summers in the southern regions, with four distinct seasons.
Various indigenous peoples have inhabited what is now Cassier for thousands of years before Euclean colonization. Beginning in the 16th century, Estmerian and Gaullican expeditions explored and later settled along the west coast. Gaullica would come to colonize and control much of what is today western Cassier, and by 1757 the nation would be officially consolidated as a colony of Gaullica. Cassier embarked on a vigorous expansion across Asteria Superior throughout the 19th century, acquiring new territories, displacing native Asterian tribes, and gradually admitting new provinces until it spanned the continent by 1849. By the end of the century, Cassier had extended across much of Asteria Superior, and its economy, driven in large part by the Industrial Revolution, began to soar. Cassier would not become a fully independent nation until the Declaration of Independence (Gaullican: Déclaration d'indépendance) was officially ratified by the Cassien National Assembly on October 14, 1920 which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on Gaullica.
