Okredesia (/ɔːkrɛdiːʒiə/ AW-kreh-DEE-zhuh, -⁠DESS-ee-uh) officially the Eschaton of Okredesia (Okrish: Eshadana Åkradeysha), is an island country in the Mazarine Ocean. Most of its land area of 437,22 km² (168,811 mi²) is characterized by cold, wet, mixed forests and rolling hills. It shares a maritime border with Elyssia, which is also the closest other country to Okredesia, laying 450 kilometers to the west. The population of 18,463,800 is concentrated in the north around the Foss Valley and Lake Sovereign. Ys, the capital, is also the country's largest city. Other major urban centers include Theapolis, Pentamos, and Limnion.

Okredesia was first inhabited during the Last Glacial Maximum, with megalithic structures submerged in the Dagerby Sea and Great Bay dating to approximately 25,000 years ago. The archaeological record shows a mass die-off occured around 13,000 BCE, leaving the island uninhabited again until the 4th century CE when the Alweni peoples arrived. The Alweni engaged in a hunter-gatherer lifestyle and built their own monumental structures. In the late 1300s, large numbers of Valsians began migrating to Okredesia from eastern Elyssia, conquering and eventually subsuming the Alweni population. During the centuries following the Valsian invasions, power coalesced around the petty kingdoms of Mallow, Lasel, Umber, Begom, and Floret, which are historically referred to as the Pentarchy. Beginning in the mid-1600s, a religious reformation resulted in the entire island uniting for the first time under the Archimandry of Okredesia from 1673 to 1739 before dissolving upon the death of Saint Alinora. The endemic warfare resulting from the Archimandry's collapse fueled the island's industrialization, which in turn caused substantial sociopolitical upheaval. The unification of Elyssia in 1871 inspired the unification of the island into the Republic of Okredesia in 1891. Rising discontentment due to precarious economic conditions, environmental degradation, and rising authoritarianism led to the Vital Revolution beginning in 1991 with the ensuing Okredesian Civil War ending in 1997 with the victory of the Eldritchians.

Today, Okredesia is a unitary socialist state that has been simultaneously described as an advanced e-democracy and an electronic police state, with low levels of political transparency and religious freedom, but paradoxically high rankings in human development, civil liberties, and democracy. Ysology is the state religion. Okredesia is c into 13 metropolitanates, which enjoy extraordinary devolved powers, consisting of 256 eparchies and 4096 parishes, as well as 23 overseas exarcharates. The country maintains a decentralized socialist economy in which basic needs have been decommodified and all firms are either employee-owned, community-owned, or state-operated. While its nominal GDP per capita is just $13,420, by PPP measurements its GDP per capita is $42,284. Major industries and products include foodstuffs, forest products, commercial vehicles, industrial machinery, electronics, and telecommunications.
