The United Federative Republic of Estradia (/ɛʃtrɑːdiːʌ/; Spokwokane: Estradi Fidiratsi Itzagokwi Ripublika), also known as the UFRE, Estradiland, or simply Estradia, is a country located in Central Dihara. Estradia borders Anzane to its west, Daogombia to its northeast, and the Gulf of Kadiba to the south. It is the nth largest country in Dihara by area after Baccania, and nth largest country overall. The country consists of 23 provinces and one Governmental Capital Region, where the capital, Bolisahar is located. As of 2015, Estradia has a population of approximately 44 million. Estradia's main economic industries are resource extraction and subsistence agriculture. Officially, Estradia is a Secular Federal Republic.

For much of history, the land within and surrounding Estradia was ruled by various kingdoms and tribal states. The Zikari Kingdom saw the most successful and lasting reign, ruling from the Estrad River Basin between the 15th and 19th century. The contemporary state of Estradia began with Thracian colonization of the region in 1843. Through direct rule, the Thracian government created administrative and legislative structures whilst attempting to assimilate the natives, a process referred to as Thracianization. This practice caused growing Colonist-Native tensions, Austeria facing several periods of unrest. Estradia gained official independence as the Free State of Estradia in 1946, a year after the 2nd Auroran War. This new nation would see much strife as warring factions battled for control of the region. A coup d'état established the Republic of Estradia in 1963; a period of brutal rule and oppression lasting for the next 13 years. A revolution on the 30th Anniversary of Estradian Independence, led by Alpada Zaboodoo and ENRA forces would see the installment of the nation's current administration.

Economy & Infrastructure

Transport

Rail

Template:Main:Rail Transport in Estradia Much of Estradia's railways are owned and operated by the state-run EstraRail; however, there have been attempts to privatize some modern sections of track. Remnants from colonial rule, a significant portion of Estradia's railways are in disrepair. Recent investment by the government and third-parties has seen portions of track being modernized and expanded, construction largely being contained to Estradia's urban areas. Plans are in the works to develop the Trans-Dihara Railroad, which will connect Bolisahar & Great Zandile.
