Hyacinthe (Hyacinthean: Hyácinthe), officially the Worker's Republic of Hyacinthe (Hyacinthean: République ouvrière d'Hyácinthe), is a sovereign state located in Central and Southern Calesia[a]. It borders Falland, Dahemia, and X to the north, West Ruthen to the northeast, X to the east, X to the west, and the X Sea to the south. Lisieux is Hyacinthe's capital and most populous city, while other major cities include Sèvremoine, Feneu, Fontannes, Argillières, and Cachan. With a population of approximately 87 million and a total area of 438,531 km2 (169,318 sq mi), it is the 5th most populous and 6th largest country in the world, as well as the single-largest country in Calesia by area and population.

Historically, Hyacinthe has been the site of numerous civilizations ever since humans first migrated to the area in ancient times. Most notably, the Hernicians emerged in the 8th century BC, first as a kingdom, before becoming a republic, and lastly, an empire. The Hernician Empire would go on to dominate much of Calesia for centuries, before eventually falling to Waldic tribes in the 5th century AD. During the 9th century, the Second Hernician Empire would be formed by the House of Karling, but was broken up by the Treaty of X in 902. In the 11th century, the Hyacinthean Empire, ruled by the Pernet dynasty, would grow to become one of the most powerful feudal kingdoms in Calesia, invading Falland and forming the Kingdom of Robindy, but had their prosperity cut short by the Catabole. In the ensuing crisis, the nation suffered from famine and disease, and the death of a significant portion of their population. The !Reformation gave rise to new Gregorian branches, such as the !Cathars and !Calvinists. Colonial efforts also started as early as the early 1500s, while the Pernets lost a succession crisis in 1578, leading to the rise of the House of Léandre.

(TBD, talks about the 1600s-1800s)

The start of the 20th century would prove turbulent for the newborn republic, as corruption plagued the government, while the economy gradually declined, contributing to unrest and support for the government plummeting, and the rise of socialist factions, culminating in the Fontannes Declaration and the ensuing Second Hyacinthean Revolution, leading to the fall of the republican government and the creation of the world's first constitutionally socialist state. Following mounting tensions with the Syndenham Powers over ideological differences, Hyacinthe got involved in the Great War after discovering they were funding and arming nationalist Valdaur and Uldirian rebel groups, resulting in gruesome fighting along the Fallish and Ruthish borders, and ending with the annexation of more ethnic Valdaur and Uldirian lands, establishment of relations with and recognition of the newly-founded socialist government in West Ruthen, and an attempted annexation of Dahemia in 1945.

Hyacinthe is widely considered to be a regional power and a great power due to wide-reaching influence in political, cultural, and military affairs, their position as one of the four recognized nuclear-weapon states, and having one of the top five largest economies in the world. They have a permanent seat in the United Congress Security Council, and are a member state of a vast number of international and bilaterial organizations, such as the Global Socialist League, the Lisieux Pact, the W20, and the X.
