Overview
Eitoan is a republic in northwest continental Greater Dienstad. It is a unitary presidential democracy. The Kingdom of Eitoan emerged as an independent sovereign state in the late Middle Ages and continued to exist until 1425, devolving into a Ralkovian colony, ruled by an Imperial Viceroy. During the colonial era the legal, educational, and religious system for the colonists was patterned on that of Ralkovia, while native Eitoan traditions remained present in the hinterland.
Following the 1901 Declaration of Independence, Ralkovian forces were expelled from Eitoan by 1904. After three years of military rule, a constitution took effect in 1907, the year of the first elections for the legislature and president. Amendments to the constitution have expanded individual liberties and restricted government interference since the late 1930s.
With the increase in literacy and improvements to public health following independence, the mestizo majority steadily took the reins of influence in Eitoan society from a shrinking Ralkoviak aristocracy. Eitoans view themselves as a continental Vanguatine people, and have adopted elements of Merican and Macabbean jurisprudence, business practices, and mores. This has been accompanied by a widespread secularization of society. In recent days the influence of The Golden Throne has become more prevalent, that nation being widely admired among the upper strata for it's military prowess and business influence.
