Sevria (Sevria: Sewrija /sefrija/), officaly known as Republic of Sevria (Köztársaság Szavadország), is a landlocked country and a democracy located in the ??? plains in Central Euclea. It is bordered by both East Miersa to the west, Gaullica to the east and Kirenia to the north. The capital is located at Visgrade.

Etymology

The name Savadia originates from the Old Savader word szav meaning "to speak", which is a cognate to Etok sob and maybe Kirenian sõna

History

1935 to 1982

During the Kirenian invasion of Gaullica, a worker's congress in the town of Małonow led by Franšetk Kocowá declared their independece and soon instigated an all-out guerilla war to liberate the rest of Sevria along with numerous Witterite and Miersan volunteers. Together, the newly organized People's Liberation Front of Sevria (PLFS) , with Kirenian backing, succeded in achieving their goals and virtually wiped out the already broken enemy infastructure. On Christmas Day 1935, the PLFS entered into Visgrade and liberated the city without any resistance or bloodshed, scores of crowds cheering and celebrating in the snow as it were a true Christmas miracle.

Months later, the last remaining Gaullican forces pulled out as the Godfredson Agreement was signed between the two sides. One of the terms listed gave Kirenia the right to administer over Sevria and East Miersa for 15 years, whilst supporting the two nation's self-determination. After months of negotiating, the two countries signed the Treaty of Peaceful Co-Operation in which Sevria was allowed to retain its democratic independence in exchange for economic aid from Kirenia. By this time however, Kocowá and his People's Party had already made Sevria an one-party socialist state modeld after the latter's govenrment and their attempts at implementing economic reform succeded and jumpstarted the post-war recovery. But Kocowá died unexpectedly of liver cancer in late 1943.

Under the administration of Jan Dworjak, Sevria was heavily involved in the foreign affairs of her more socialist-minded neighbors. It provided logistical support for Kirenia in the short-lived war against Werania in 1949. But problems were brewing at home, as corruption and persecution of dissidents run rampant during a decade that also saw anti-government protests. Between Feburary and May of 1954, an attempted coup staged by Sevrian right-wing militias and funded by Gaullica successfully ousted the authorities, but their plan miserably backfired when Kirenia caught word of the crisis, sending its expeditionary forces to crush the rebellion. This became known as the "Visgrade Spring". Soon afterwards, a "normalization" policy was put in place to return the nation to a status quo.

In 1960, Boriš Radko became premier of Sevria and sought to introduce a series of reforms aimed at liberalizing aspects of society, in order to appease the people after the events of 1954. These would allow greater freedoms for the public to speak about their views without restrictive censorship and to travel abroad.

Languages

The dialects of Kirenian spoken there are influenced by both Sevrian and Weranic languages such as Witterite. Gaullican, once the language of administration and higher education, sharply dwindled after the Great War, due to new laws restricting its use that were enforced until the late-1980's.
