Etymology
The name for the Orientia in Korean is written 동연방국 (pronounced Dongyeon Bangguk, meaning "Federal Republic of The East"), but often shorten as Dongguk or Tongguk. The characters 동국 mean "eastern country" or "country in the eastern edge". Dongguk (동국) is typically used to refer to the country adjectivally. Before 동국 was adopted in 2043, the pre-Orientia countries were known as China (exonym from Qin, fomerly a dynasty in China. The name of the country in Chinese, 中国, literally means "central empire"), Korea (from Goryeo, 고려, meaning "walled city" [1]), and Russia (Россия, meaning "country of Rus").
Orientia, the name of the country in English is the combination of orient meaning "east" and suffix -ia meaning land, which is the literal transliteration of the Korean name for the country. The word orient derived from Middle Anglican orient, oriente, oryent, oryente, oryentte (“the east direction; eastern horizon or sky; eastern regions of the world, Orient; eastern edge of the world”), borrowed from Old French orient (“east direction; Asia, Orient”), or directly from its etymon Latin oriēns (“the east; daybreak, dawn; sunrise; (participle) rising; appearing; originating”).
In English, a citizen of Orientia is called an "Oriental". The word "Oriental" also refer to the country adjectivally ("Oriental values", "Oriental forces").
History
Pre-Independence
Independent countries before Orientia collapsed in 2040 after the World War 3. China had lost most of their eastern territories because of the war, and imploded due to the prolonged and massive protest across the country. The remaining CCP government seek refuge in the Shaanxi region. Russia was in an unstable political situation, despite not participating in the war, having their government and military weakened after the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The United States, on the other hand, survived albeit suffered many casualties due to the war and unstable politics due to the separation of northern states, and social decline in the 2030s. Japan and South Korea were the only east asian countries surviving, with South Korea being the least unstable country after the war, as Japan had to tackle abandoned cities due to extreme decline in their population.
The United States government, established Earth League, along with Russia, South Korea, United Kingdom, France, India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Australia, as the successor of the collapsed United Nations. The league had decided to make a partition plan for Europe and Asia. The partition plan underwent several changes until the final change was approved under the Treaty of Taipei in 2043. France, United Kingdom were given partitioned areas of Western Europe, Central Europe and Southern Europe, while Russia was given control over Eastern Europe. All these changes brought in the return of historical nations, for example, Livonia, Kalmaria (in the form of a republic), and Yugoslavia. In Asia, South Korea was given most of East Asia and North Asia, which led to the creation of Orientia, while Indonesia and Malaysia controlled over Southeast Asia, resulting in the creation of Nusantara. Zhao Ganfu is the current ruling monarch of Nusantara.
- ↑ The word Korea is the English exonym for Goryeo. It was a native Korean word, probably pronounced something like "Guri", transcribed with various Chinese characters: 高句麗, 高勾麗, or 高駒麗 (고구려, Goguryeo), 高麗 (고려, Goryeo), 高離 (고리, Gori), or 句麗 (구려, Guryeo). The source native name is thought to be either *Guru ("walled city, castle, fortress"; attested in Chinese historical documents, but not in native Korean sources) or *Gauri ("center, middle"; cf. Middle Korean *gaβɔndɔy and Standard Modern Korean gaunde 가운데).
