Emnia (Emnian: Eamhna /avˠɾˠə/) officially the Kingdom of Emnia (Emnian: Miomhláiche t-Eamhna /mʲʊvˠlaːçə tʲ‿avˠɾˠə/), is the northernmost sovereign state in Calatania. Emnia's capital is Cártuaist, and its two largest metropolitan areas are Baight Chnaghn and Seolmhac.
Emnia has a total area of 385,207 square kilometres (148,729 sq mi) and had a population of 5,385,300 in 2020. The country shares a long southern border with Southerland and is bounded by the Endless Mountains to the north and east and the Great Sea to the west. Emnia is situated on both sides of the River Thoibhronn which flows from the northeast of the country through its heartlands and out into the sea through the Thoibhronn Delta. The maritime influence dominates Emnia's climate, with mild lowland temperatures along the river valley and seacoast. Even in the eastern interior of the country, while colder, is milder than areas elsewhere in the world on such northerly latitudes. High rainfall and snowfall are commonplace.
Príoma II is the current Queen of Emnia. Ríobhca beáth t-Annraoi has been prime minister since 2021, replacing Mairéad beáth Lorcán. As a unitary sovereign state with a constitutional monarchy, Emnia divides state power between the Parliament, the Cabinet, and the Supreme Court, as determined by the 1814 Constitution. The Kingdom was established in 872 as a merger of several petty kingdoms and tribal realms which had existed largely unchanged since the bronze age. From 1397 to 1814, Emnia was in personal union with the Kingdom of Southerland until the Emnian War of Independence. Emnia was neutral in the first world war, and remained so until the second world war when the country was invaded and occupied by Austrasia until the end of the war.
Emnia has both administrative and political subdivisions on two levels: circles (míogalaimh, sing. míogall) and municipalities (cairdheoth, sing. cairdhe). The Eastonian people have a certain amount of self-determination and influence over their tradtional territories through the Eastonian Parliament and the Far East Act. Emnia maintains close ties with both the Calatanian Union and Westralia, and is a founding member of the Global Forum, Free Trade Association, and the Boreal Council.
Emnia maintains the Boreal Welfare Model with universal healthcare and comprehensive social security infrastructure, and its values are rooted in egalitarian ideals. The Emnian state has large ownership positions in industrial sectors, having extensive reserves of petroleum, natural gas, minerals, lumber, seafood, and fresh water. The petrochemical industry accounts for around a quarter of the country's gross domestic product (GDP).
Although the majority of the population is ethnic Emnian, in the 21st century, immigration has accounted for more than half of population growth; as of 2021, the largest minority groups in the country are the descendants of Austrasian, Westralian, and Sudric immigrants
