Ehoway (Tuskish: Ihøwæ), officially the Republic of Ehoway (Tuskish: Republikken Ihøwæ) is a country in northern Newfoundland covering the island of X and the Leifjord archipelago. Ehoway covers an area of Xkm² (X sq mi) making it the Xth largest country in the world and the largest in Newfoundland in terms of population and land area. It is also the xth largest country in the world in terms of land area and the xth largest in terms of population. It shares no land borders with other countries, it is neighboured by the X sea in the north, the X ocean in the east, X and the X sea in the south and X and the X ocean in the west. The country is a unitary state but is divided into 15 semi-autonomous states including the capital Akavik. Alongside these states the country recognises numerous autonomous native nations as special autonomous administrative divisions has relinquished limited amounts of authority over select issues to these nations. The largest city in Ehoway is Nytslot; other important urban areas in Ehoway include Elostrøm, Langstrand, Monsiyok, Ipsen, Sekakawon, Dallhavn, Højbakke, Vojens and Farsø.

The first recorded human inhabitation of Ehoway comes from approximately 20,000 BCE and spread across modern-day Ehoway and formed unique and semi-advanced societies and cultures such as the Wayuwa state in north-eastern Ehoway. Eurika-Hallanians arrived in the region in the late 15th century and the first permanent colonies were established by Tuskval which later formed the colony of Tuskish Newfoundland. In 1804 Tuskish Newfoundland declared independence beginning the protracted Ehowan War of Independence which concluded after the Ehowan victory at the Battle of Sekakawon and the Treaty of X which recognised Ehowan independence. The United States of Ehoway fell shortly after it's founding during the Majoritarian War between Unitarians and Federalists which was eventually won by Unitarian faction. For much of the 19th century Ehoway experienced a period of relative stability and economic growth which attracted immigrants from all inhabited continents and gave the country a diverse ethnic makeup, this ended with the 1902 Ehowan financial crisis which caused the country's economy to enter a prolonged decline from 1902 onwards.

The 1934 Ehowan coup d'état overthrew the First Republic of Ehoway and installed a military junta which lasted until the return of democracy in 1943. The political violence associated with the military junta did little to stabilise the economy which continued it's decline until 1954 under the Trepartssystem ("Tripartite system") which introduced economic and social reforms which saw the country enter a period of gradual recovery and stability. The Trepartssystem governed Ehoway from 1943 until it's fall in 1999 during the økopetrol scandal. In response to the scandal and economic stagnation strict neoliberal economic measures were introduced by in 2000, over the following years the country's historically strong welfare state was dismantled although the country enjoyed a period of prolonged economic growth which ended with the Redevelopment crash of 2012 which left the country suffering from massive amounts of inflation and economic inequality. Since being elected in 1999, President Søren Kirkegaard and his successor and ally Torben Bisgaard have dominated the political landscape of Ehoway under their tenures Ehoway has suffered from democratic backsliding according to international observers.

Ehoway is considered to be a regional and emerging power in Newfoundland and world affairs. The country has a developing country and the Xth largest GDP in the world and the largest in Newfoundland. It also has a very high Human Development Index score and has one of the fastest growing economies in the world. However the country also suffers from high amounts of income inequality and has one of the highest scores on the gini coefficient, the country also struggles from a high rate of inflation since the redevelopment crash. Ehoway maintains an active and non-interventionary role in foreign affairs and is a member of the X, X, X, X, X, and X.
