Heldervin, officially the Heldervinian Socialist Autocratic Reich, is a country located in northern Ledonia, particulary in the Trihhimerein Peninsula, with parts of its territories found on the various islands in the region. Spanning across the majority of the peninsula, it is home to the oldest settlements in the region; however, the nation itself is relatively young, unified in 1836. Peninsular Heldervin is bordered by Berush to the north, Partin to the east, and the Great Heldervinian Ocean to the west and south. Heldervin's capital is Old Vrebsicourg, while other major cities include Ansium and Old Figerbün. As of 2059, the total population was 882,382,737.
Heldervinian terrain largely consists of low hills, plains, and rainforests. Mountainous terrain is typically found in the north, where the tallest mountain, Mt. Everlherst, is also located. Tuujarnia, a province in Heldervin, earned the title as most populated and dense due to the near zero hills and mountains found.
In late antiquity, the Berushian Peninsula was settled by Berushians, particularly the bourgeoisie. Heldervin became a unified state in 1836.
Etymology
The name of Heldervin originates from Heldervinia, the name used by the ancient Ledonians to identify the Trihhimerein Peninsula. The etymological meaning of the term Heldervinia is unclear, and as such the true origin of the name is largely speculatory.
The most popular theory is that Heldervinia means "Land of the Helds", due to the fact that, in the Ledonian language, the term "ervinia" as a suffix meant "Land of". However, there exists little historical evidence of such Helds.
History
Prehistory
Archaeological research indicates that the Trihhimerein Peninsula was populated by various tribes about 5000 years ago.
The two largest groups inhabiting the Berushian Peninsula were the Trihhimerein and Ecahoors. Several towns were established by the tribes, including Old Vrebsicourg, the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in Heldervin.
The Necargom culture arrived around 2200 BL, during which they established several powerful kingdoms and introducing various new weapons and foods. It was during this time that major Veterlitterumian monuments, such as Steinenwahrzeichein emerged.
From roughly 1800 to 1625 BL, the Thatckerians began an invasion
