Étlaurlande, officially known as the Overseas Duchy of Étlaurlande (French: Duché d'outre-mer d'Étlaurlande), is a dependent territory located in western Teudallum, sharing borders with Arimathea and Trellin in the south, Sycoon in the east and the Sea of Jajich to the north. As a territory of Haguenau, Étlaurlande's head of state is the monarch of Haguenau, its defense is assured by Haguenau's Armed Forces and it uses the Haguenau Livre (HGL) as its currency. However, the nation also enjoys a high degree of political freedom, with an independent legislature and executive cabinet handling both internal and most external affairs, although the monarch and the viceroy still retain many rights. Étlaurlande is considered as a sovereign nation by many organisations. Étlaurlande is a duchy covering 40 740 km², and with a population of around 11.6 million.

Étlaurlande is a unitary parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy. Its capital is Barzanou, the duchy's largest city and the main cultural and commercial centre. The current head of state—since 7 April 1982—is King Stephen II. The appointed viceroy is Aldéric Lémieux. The current duchess is Ícanta Kuedar. The elected governor is Mohérnin Ryentí.
