Erishland (Erish: Erischland [ˈeːr(ɪ)ʃˌland]), officially the Erish Realm (Erish: Erischryk [ˈeːr(ɪ)ʃˌraɪ̯k]), is a country in northern Belisaria. It is bordered by Cynereth to the east, Ottonia to the south, and the Boreios Sea to the north and west. Its capital city is Serdstad.

Erishland was first inhabited by Celtic and Germanic peoples known as the Corvaik, but became dominated by the Erish following the arrival of the Allamunnic tribes during the fifth century. An independent Erish realm emerged during the late thirteenth century out of the Northern Crusade, with Brejtur of Tousch being crowned king in 1297. After the brief establishment of an Erish Republic in 1858, it was annexed by Ottonia in the late 1800s. Movements for the independence of the country first culminated in the Royalist Revolts from 1915 to 1920, which were ultimately suppressed by the Ottonian government. Another revolt by Royalists in 1932 sparked the Great Ottonian War, ending in the restoration of Erish independence and the monarchy.

The Erish political system is a unitary semi-presidential constitutional monarchy. The monarch, currently Queen Liexne III, functions as head of state whilst the duties of head of government are carried by the President and the Realm Chancellor, who are, as of 2020, Eirik Geiralkson and Aleiv Geustavson respectively. The modern economy is highly developed, upholds an extensive welfare system, and ranks highly for economic mobility and income equality.
