Overview

Orlav (Arlaŭsh: Орлавмаа, Arlaŭmaa), officially the Republic of Orlavmaa, is a rekan country situated in Eastern Aldinea. Orlavmaa is divided into 18 administrative subdivisions called Dziaržaŭ. The nation has a population of over 58 million, making it the 10th (player-based) largest country in Midgard by population, with the capital of Poznagrad of 2.9 million inhabitants. The largest city and historic ex-capital is Minstgrad with a population of 3.2 million. Other major cities include: Beosov, Korbagrad, and Vilihorsk.

Orlavmaa has a highly developing economy and is considered an Upper Middle Income Country, and is a minor power in Eastern Aldinea with a GDP of $816,236,120,000. With a modestly high HDI of 0.871 and a low GINI of 28.90, Orlavmaa is a favourable location for migrants for work in secondary jobs such as manufacturing, the motor industry, and refinement of raw metals from Kulavia.

Orlav is a landlocked nation bordered by Suavia and Flarmen in the west, Ruvia in the south, Kulavia in the east, and Yuvomaa to the north. Orlav has open borders with Kulavia and Yuvomaa under the Pan-Rekan Brotherhood, which allows for free trade and movement between nations.

Within recent years, Orlavmaa has been undergoing a shift towards the alt-right and irredentism, particularly related to Vydatna Orlavmaa. A political philosophy of the unification of Orlavmaa and the province of East Orlav of Kulavia and the northern border of Ruvia.

Etymology

Orlavmaa means Land of Orlav, and comes from the historic conquerer of Hadrar Bolafia and the Dominion of Ostro Bolafia. The kingdoms under the House of Bolafia took on the name of Bolafmaa, which eventually evolved into Orlavmaa. The current Republic uses the name Arlaŭmaa internally. Coming from the Arlaŭ people, which make up the plurality of the ethnic demographics of Orlav and has been used as an interchangeable term for the region since the 18th century.

Another less commonly used name for Orlavmaa is Minstia, coming from the Kingdom(s) of Minst in the early periods of Orlav history in the 6th and more dominantly in the 12th century. The name is primarily used in poetry, or to distinguish Orlav under the House of Minst.
