The Archduchy of Styrae, commonly known as Styrae, is a moderately sized nation in North-Western Nortua located on the North Samson Ocean. The remote arctic island of Vesallgarðr (Eng.: Vesallgard) and the Hrosshvalr archipelago are also part of Styrae's land. The capital is Halstaad. The population is 13.7 million, and has a low population density. 87% of Styraeans live in urban areas, which account for roughly 2% of the land area. The highest concentration is in the south and the Hrosshvalr Archipelago.

Styrae's land encompases 326k km^2, and has an extensive coastline along the Northern Samson Ocean. Maritime influence gives Styrae a mild climate for its northerly location, with a wet, mild coastal climate and a dry, cold interior. Even during polar night, the coast often does not drop below freezing. The moisture from the ocean brings heavy rain and snowfall to the country year-round.

Styrae is a member state of the Trans-Toyana Prosper Alliance. Sigurbaldur Dallason V of House Galdür is the current monarch. Marlene Bachrich has been president since 2013. As a Constitutional Presidentiary Monarchy, the power of the state is divided between the monarch, the president, and the unicameral legistlator, as determined by the 1821 Constitution. The duchy was established in 872 as a union of many petty kingdoms and counties, under the rule of Magnus the First, King of Styr.

Economy

The economy of Styrae consists primarily of fishing. The majority of the agricultural land in Styrae is uncultivated and is used for sheep, goats, and cattle.
