Helmenland (Kantemoshan: Helmenmaa), officially the Republic of Helmenland (Kantemoshan: Helmenmaan tasavalta), is a sovereign state in eastern Asteria Inferior. The nation shares land borders with Gapolania to the north and Arbolada to the southwest, and extends to the Lumine Ocean in the east. Helmenland's capital and largest city is Matinranta, with other major cities including Kirkasvesi, Avai, Uusilinna, and Kalfunao. With a population of approximately 37.8 million and spanning an area of 423,489 square kilometers, Helmenland is the Xth most populous and Xth largest state in Asteria Inferior.

Indigenous Asterians have inhibited what is now continental Helmenland for at least 12,000 years. Matti Kapanen became the first Euclean to discover the region in 1605, claiming it for Kantemosha & Ambrazka. Kantemoshan colonists established extensive sugarcane plantations in Helmenland throughout the 17th century, leading to the formation of an aristocratic class of wealthy landowners. Soravia annexed the colony during the Ten Years War and began a process of Soravianisation, alienating the Helmish aristocracy and leading to the Helmish War of Independence in 1752. After eight years of war, Soravia recognized Helmenland's independence and withdrew its forces in 1760.
