Roqoo, formally the United Realm of Roqoo (Roquanian: Roqoon yhdistynyt alue), is a sovereign island nation spanning the central part of Kiteton Island (Roquanian: Kitetoninsaari), the largest island in Marenesia. Bounded by the Strait of Sicani (Roquanian: Sikoonin salmi) to the north and the Bight of Marenai (Roquanian: Marenaien lahti) to the south. As an isolated nation, Roqoo only shares maritime borders to the north with the Divine Republic of the Holy Catholic Empire across the Strait of Sicani and to the south with the Dominion of Kōri-Chi and Workers' Republic of Mevraq beyond the Bight of Marenai. Roqoo's only land borders are formed by natural geography, such as Nuabodante Mountains and the Kymi River (Roquanian: Kymijoki) in the west and the Jarvi valley in the east.

Roqoo has developed from a close-knit and communal population to a nation benefiting from a strong, heavily regulated economy through which environmentally conscious private and national industries operate. Roqoo is a unitary theocractic elective monarchy ruled by the religious head of state Candar, Jalo Hanninen.


Etymology

Geography

Totalling over 345,671 square kilometers (133,499 sq mi), Roqoo is the largest country on Kiteton Island, the largest island in Marenesia. Roqoo is naturally divided into three parts: the northern coastal plain, inner spine of highland plateaus, and southern coastal plain where over half of population resides. The inner highlands, referred to as the Kansan plateau (Kansankatto, lit. "roof of the people"), is sparsely populated and protected by an extensive system of national parks. Three valleys, the Lantinen, Syoto, and Jarvi (listed west to east), abbreviate the central plateau and have provided natural passage between the two coastal regions for centuries.

The largest river, the Kymi (Roquanian: Kymijoki, lit. "wide river") flows from Nuabodante Mountains discharging into the Antargis Ocean at the western city of Ivalo. The river delineates a third of the nation's western border.

The northern coast is a precious nature resource of Roqoo, with the northwestern coast the location of the nation's primate city and port, Nime, and foci of tourism in the country.

Calendar

The Roquanian calendar is a solar calendar used in Roqoo. The original Roquanian calendar is one of the oldest documents maintained in the Canfre Vaults and has received little revision since its inception. A a solar calendar consisting of 365 days divided into eleven 30-day months, five 7-day festival weeks, and the holiest day of the year, Lidi.

The customary date format is two write day followed by the two- or three-letter abbreviation depicting the month or festival week, followed by two digit year [DD/MMM/YY]]. This format was adopted to clarify differences in dates of the national calendar versus those of the international standard calendar of Eurth.
