Agarntrop is a small island nation in Western Valasia. The country was a Canterian colony from 1702 to 1889, when it managed to gain independence due to the ongoing Canter Uprising. Chaos ensued following independence leading to martial law and eventually a military dictatorship under the control of several lieutenant-general-emperors that managed to remain in power until 1966, when a revolt led to the foundation of the modern federal republic.
Ethymology
The name 'Agarntrop' has its roots in the Old Agarn phrase 'Trrœrip ve Agæne' which translates to 'the fruitful land' due to the green and fertile nature of the Agarn landscape.
Demographics
Language
The most common language in Agarntrop is Agarn, which is closely linked to old Agarn and was - over time - adopted by the Agarn race (which makes up roughly 90% of the population) and is the standard Agarn language today.
The remaining 10% of Agarns speak a variety of languages as their mother tounge, as Agarn immigrants come from many countries around Anteria.

Government
The Senate
In Agarntrop, there is one national house of legislature, the Senate, which is elected via the Party List System with electors voting for a party rather than a candidate. Then the percentage of votes a party gets will be multiplied by four and the amount of seats the party gets in the Senate will be declared. Members in the Senate are automatically elected every five years with a term limit of 30 years, but the government or just the prime minister themselves may call an election before that time expires. The Senate is currently controlled by a coalition between the ADC and the liberals. This coalition is commonly referred to as the Centre-left coalition.
Executive Branch
The Agarn head of state and government is the Prime Minister, which is elected by the Senate along with the rest of the cabinet. The Prime Minister must form a government with either one party or a group of parties which together meet the required threshold of 201 seats. After this, the cabinet will be almost certainly elected as every party in the Agarn Senate requires their members to vote for their government. The Prime Minister has a term limit of 10 years.
The current Prime Minister is Peter Auklando of the ADC, who was re-elected in 2018 by a vote of 220-171 (with 9 either abstaining or not being present). His term will end at latest on the 10th December 2020, as he will have served for 10 years.
Judicial Branch
The Agarn supreme court consists of 12 seats. In order to ensure impartiality, 6 are appointed by the government and the other 6 are appointed by the official opposition (the largest party not in government). After an election, the supreme court appointments will re-occur, but there is no limit on the amount of times a justice can be reappointed unless the said justice dies or retires.
