Mbuntrare, officially the Republic of Mbuntrare is a small country located in central Meredonne, bordered by the Paisi Ocean to the north and the Chelanewok Mountains to the south. It's borders are defined by the Segoulok River Watershed with all land that eventually drains into the river considered part of Mbuntrare. It's capital and by far largest is Ketonbo with around 400,000 people and containing around 2/3 of the country's total population. The only other cities with more than 10,000 people are Cannilok, Nbembera, Monroeville, Abilone Mill, & Port Nimshoq. Mbuntrare is divided into 18 regions which each send 2 members to the Mbuntrarean Parliament. Mbuntrare is a Semi-Presidential Constitutional Republic where it is ruled by a President as Head of State and Prime Minister as Head of Government.
The country was a Senefpatian colony and later territory for almost 200 years from 1788-1983. Before that, there was little recorded history however, there is still widespread knowledge of civilizations being in the country since the Senkanta Kingdom in the 2nd Century. Mbuntrare however, is rich in archaeological sites which provide most information about the periods before colonization. During colonization, Mbuntrare was used mostly for it's large deposits of gemstones; rich soil, and good climate for growing crops and spices, and as a trading hub for other countries in Meredonne. Mbuntrare received independence on March 29, 1983 and has since had a steady history as an independent country.
It's economy is almost entirely based upon mining, agriculture, and regional trading, which is what made it such a valuable colony for Senefpat. The mountains in the south of the country have provided valuable gemstones, most notably sapphires, emeralds, and amethyst. While the northern parts of the country are great for agriculture producing many products such as watermelons, oranges, and spices such as vanilla, and ginger.
