Toujin (Iton: 島人 [tou'jin]), officially the Republic of Toujin (Midrasian: 島人共和国 [tou'jin kyōwakoku]), is a semi-democratic unitary located in the east Atlantic. The current government, the Republic of Toujin, was founded in 1864 after the Toujin Revolution toppled the previous "Toujin Alliance" , however the country itself was initially founded in 1536 simply called "Toujin". Toujin is situated on the island of Toujin, which is where the country takes its name. Toujin is neighbored by other island nations, most closely situated are the Rensai Conglomerate and the Republic of Shinto, and resides in an archipelago comprised of 12 island nations. The culmination of these Island nations is called the "Nagasaki Conglomerate" also known as the NC, and holds annual sporting events for all members of the archipelago. The Republic of Toujin has an area of 67,239 km2 and a population of 24,287,463, making it the largest and most populated island of the archipelago, and often hosts these annual events.
Toujin is officially divided into 16 prefectures, and 3 territories. Approximately two-thirds of the country's terrain is mountainous and heavily forested, and less than one-sixth of land is suitable for agriculture. As a consequence of highly mountainous terrain, the majority of Toujin citizens reside in one of the nations many cities, as the urban population accounts for nearly 85% of the nation's population. The largest of these cities is the city of Kobayatsu, with a population of 7.4 million, followed by the capital, Tarabashi, and the entertainment hub, Sendai.
The Republic of Toujin is considered a developed economy, with a GDP per capita of $24,000. Throughout the 19th century, Toujin's economy was initially built on its abundant natural resources such as coal and iron. After the "Toujin Recession of 1912", the economy shifted away from its reliance on natural resources, and towards manufacturing and other industries. As a result, the economy shifted towards secondary and tertiary sectors at a rapid pace throughout the 20th century. During the late 20th century, the economy had almost completely shifted away from natural resource production and refinement. As of 2017, More than 78% of the workforce works in the tertiary or quaternary sector, and less than 1% work in the primary sector. As of 2017, the nation's two highest grossing industries are entertainment and electronics.
