Caratan (/'kɛɪrɪtən/), officially the Republic of Caratan (Taíno: Repablika te Ke'reto) is a sovereign state located within the CARIBBEANSEASTANDIN that is comprised entirely of an island of the same name, as well as several other islands in an island chain known as the Greater Caratanese. It shares maritime borders with NATION to the north, NATION to the south, NATION to the east, and NATION to the west. With an overall estimated population of roughly 12,345,985 Caratanese citizens, the Republic is the XXXth largest in the WORLD. It also has a total surface area of XXX, making it the XXXth largest nation in the WORLD, and the XXth largest in the REGION.

The region was first settled by the Carati people, a Taíno-speaking group that settled the region from SOUTHAMERICASTANDIN sometime between 4,000 and 5,000 BCE. EUROPEANSTANDIN colonists from EUROPEANSTANDIN arrived in the region in the year 1520, establishing the port city of Pastora (city) on the main Caratanese island by 1550. The region would be used for the cultivation of sugar, bananas, and the extraction of minerals, much to the detriment of the local Carati population. Harsh working conditions, as well as the importation of AFRICASTANDIN slaves would see the Carati largely either killed or assimilated by 1720. In 1730, EUROPEANSTANDIN merchants established the WESTINDIACOMPANYSTANDIN in order to oversee the administration of the region, as well as the extraction of its resources. The region would exist under company rule until 1795 when financial insolvency would force the EUROPEANSTANDIN government to nationalize the company, and thus assume direct administrative control over the area. The rise of republicanism around the turn of the 19th-century, as well as increasingly restrictive monetary policy by EUROPEANSTANDIN would lead to the rise of secret societies such as The Trinity. Members of The Trinity would launch a revolution which would see the overthrow of the colonial administration that same year. EUROPEANSTANIN forces would land on the island in an attempt to restore the colonial government by late-1831, with the resulting conflict descending into guerilla warfare shortly thereafter. The conflict would ultimately end with the region receiving significant autonomy, essentially amounting to de-facto independence, in 1835 with the signing of the Treaty of Continual Association. The region would recieve de-jure independence in 1900 with the signing of the Falcón Accords. A series of conservative governments would be formed in the wake of the nation's independence, largely dominated by corporate and aristocratic interests but with active participating by left-wing parties. These governments would continue until the 1925 general election. Allegations of vote rigging and ballot stuffing by both sides sparked a brief civil war, forcing the constabulary and gendarmerie to declare an emergency military government and suspend the constitution in 1926 in order to pacify the country. Due to the outbreak of the WORLDWARTWOSTANDIN, fresh elections wouldn't be held until 19XX. Democracy and constitutional rule would resume following the fresh elections, though corruption and scandal on both sides of the political aisle would become an increasingly obvious issue until the modern day.
