Romaia (Greek: Ρωμανία), officially the Romaian Empire (Greek: Ρωμαϊκή Αυτοκρατορία), is a country consisting of a plato delimited by mountaneous catenaries. Romaia is located in Southern Estaria. The country covers a total are of 2012031 km2 (776849,5 sq mi) and shares land borders with Euganeia and TBA. With around 60 million inhabitants, Romaia is the [TBD]-most populous state of Estaria. Due to its central geographical location in Southern Estaria, Romaia has historically been home to myriad peoples and cultures. In addition to the various ancient peoples dispersed throughout modern Romaia, the most predominant being the Indo-European Greek peoples, beginning from the Bronze Age, Greeks (Mycenaeans) established settlements in the Eastern Romaia, while Celts and Italics inhabited western and northern Romaia respectively. A Greek tribe known as the Dorians formed the Aistarian Union in the [century BC]. The Aistarian Union initially conquered and assimilated its neighbours on the Eastern and Northeastern Estaria, eventually expanding and conquering western and northern parts of Estaria. Romaia remained the homeland of the Greeks and the metropole of the empire, whose legacy can also be observed in the global distribution of culture, governments, and the Greek script.

Romaia reached its political and military zenith in the late 19th century under Constantine V, subjugating Romaian postfeudal states and Marine republics and establishing the Romaian Empire. Subsequent decades saw a period of optimism, cultural and scientific flourishing, as well as economic prosperity known as the Belle Époque. Romaia was among the Allied powers of World War II and courageously defended and liberated it's land.

Nowadays Romaia is a unitary constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system of governance in Estaria. Romaia covers an area of 776849,5 a largely temperate seasonal climate and the Mediterranean climate.

Name

Romans or Rhomaioi (Ῥωμαῖοι; sg. Ῥωμαῖος Rhomaios) and Romioi (Ρωμιοί; sg. Ρωμιός Romios), is the name by which the Romaians are known since the Middle Ages. The name in antiquity originally signified the inhabitants of the city of Rome in Italy, but with the increasing Latin colonisation of Estaria, the Roman states granted Roman citizenship to the Hellenics of Estaria and other nations of their states, it soon lost its connection with the Latins.

Overall, the foreign borrowed name (Romans) initially had a more political than national meaning, which went hand in hand with the universalizing ideology of Christianity and Hellenic-Roman culture that aspired to encompass all nations of the world under one true God. Various ethnicities could apply their own ethnonyms or toponyms to disambiguate citizenship from genealogy, which is why the historian Procopius prefers to call the Romaians as Hellenized Romans, while other authors use Romhellenes and Graecoromans, aiming to indicate descent and citizenship simultaneously.
