Paretia (Luzelese: Paretia), officially the United Kingdom of Paretia (Luzelese: Reino Unido Da Paretia; Meiran: Reino Unido De Paretia; Esmeralan: Reino Unido De Paretia; Tosutonian: Regne Unit d'Paretya), is a Federal Parliamentary Constitutional Monarchy situated in eastern Euclea, located on the Paretian Peninsula. It is shares land borders with two nations, the northwest by Gaullica, and to the southwest by Etruria. It also shares maritime borders with three other nations, to the east by Montecara and Tsabara, and to the southeast by Emessa. Paretia has a population of 31.2 Million people. The Country is a union of four kingdoms, Meira, Tosutonia, and Esmeral and Luzela, the latter being the largest and most powerful kingdom of the four.
The location of Paretia on the western side of Aurean Straits has made it a place of significance throughout much of human history. For much of it's earliest history, the peninsula was inhabited by Tenic cultures, the largest was known as the Eastrian culture. By the 7th century BC, the Piraeans had begun to set up colonial cities across the peninsula. These cities would eventually grow due to the trade that was constantly going through the region. Soon the Solarian Empire would conquer the peninsula, and the empire saw Paretia with high importance and began to invest heavily into the region. Cities were founded by the empire, the largest being Preceus, which today is the capitol, Precea. After the fall of the Empire, it's successor the Verliquoan Empire would take over the peninsula. During this era the Tagamic Invasions from Coius would land on the peninsula and Paretia became the focal point of the conflicts. These hordes would sack and destroy many cities in the peninsula. Eventually the horde was defeated by the Verliquoan hold on the peninsula was severely weakened. Various kingdoms and principalities would form across the peninsula, these kingdoms each had different unique languages such as Luzelese, Meiran, Tosutonian, and Esmeralan. The most notable of these kingdoms was Luzela, located on the eastern half of the peninsula. By the 1400's Luzela had made itself far richer and more powerful than it's neighbors. This time the Queen of Luzela Marta I began a campaign to conquer the Paretian peninsula.
Etymology
The word "Paretia" comes from the word Parietem, the Solarian word for "Wall". The Solarians named the peninsula when they conquered it. The name derives from the original Piraean name for the peninsula, Empodio, which meant wall in Piraean. The name comes from the idea that the peninsula was a wall that divided the northern oceans to the southern oceans of Euclea. Most Solarian documents and maps labelled the peninsula as either Parietia or Parietium. Other names for the region include West Aurea and Great Luzela. Each of these kingdoms speak a separate language and have different, but still closely intertwined cultures.
