Elaklania, officially the United States of Elaklnia (Isbellan: Los Estados Unidos de Elaklania) is a Unitary National-Syncretic one-party Republic, situated in the middle of Cesylle Elaklania is bordered by Osceola and Nastonovo to the south, Adlocke to the north, the Eastern Ocean to the east, and Western Ocean to the west. Most Elaklanians live in the western half of the country where the capital is located and where more urban development occurs.
Elaklania’s environment is dominated by subtropical forests, marshes, and deserts; much of the forests are kept inland while marshes make up the two coasts and deserts take up the southern portion of the country. The climate of Elaklania ranges between tropical and arid, rain is frequent except in the south, years of industrial development has left some of the country struggling to keep its natural environment clean. The government has taken minimal measures to prevent any more environmental damage.
Etymology
The name Elaklania finds its origins in the word Elakla from the Elawe language and their oral history, in the founding myth of the Elawe it said they came from the south where the land bore nothing and was dry, so pleading with to the gods for aid the Elawe were pointed north by a alligator. Once the Elawe made it north they found fertile land and rain, however they would quickly grow too spoiled and eat themsleves to the point where no more food could be grown. The gods enraged by the Elawe wasting their gift would kill half of their population off letting the rest live, the remaining Elawe would take the namd Elawe from then on as a remindering of their shame. The actual etymology for the word comes from the Elawe word for hunger (E-la-we) this would go on to effect the name the Elawe gave to the land they lived on, which they would call land of hunger or just "Elakla". Once the Isbellans colonized the nation they would go to translate the native word Elakla into Isbellan making the word Elaklania.
