Amandine was originally inhabited by numerous indigenous nations since the fourth millennium BCE, prior to Auressian exploration in the 1500s. In 1510, the Imperial Port of Colette was proclaimed for the Kingdom of Vervillia by famed explorer Jean-Baptiste Amand II. While the territory was staunchly Vervillian in its identity, the Blaco-Vervillian Union's formation in 1530 sparked a debate over the formal claim to the territory, which lasted until the late 18th century. However, the Blaco-Vervillian Union greatly financially and infrastructurally benefitted the Imperial Port of Colette, which by now had grown its territorial boundaries well past the initial founding site. Between the 17th and 18th centuries, the Imperial Colony of Amandine became a vital trade and economic hub for the Auressian Power, but restrictive mercantilist policies and general sentiments of neglect progressively corroded the previously strong relationship between the territory and the motherland. Already feeling forgotten by the Union, Amandine was formally gifted to the Blaykish Monarchy as a result of the War of Tyrnican Succession (1785) without any local representation in the matter; the Blaco-Vervillian Union's dissolution from the war entirely severed Amandine's governmental connection to Vervillia, worsening the situation even further against the Blaykish Monarchy. | Amandine was originally inhabited by numerous indigenous nations since the fourth millennium BCE, prior to Auressian exploration in the 1500s.

Amandine (Principean: Amandine, pronounced /æmɛndiːn/), officially the Federal Republic of Amandine (Principean: République Fédérale d'Amandine) but also known as the Southern Marceaunian Federal Republic, is a sovereign state located in central Marceaunia Minor. It is bordered to the west by the Demontean Ocean, to the north by the Adrienne Sea, and to the northeast by the Hesperian Ocean. Amandine is comprised of fourteen integral regions and a capital territory within 3,318,987 square kilometers, and possesses a population of 97.8 million. The legislative and administrative capital lies within Colette, which is the nation's third largest urban centre following the cities of St. Laurine and Anne-Marie. Other major cities include Aurèle, Nouvelle Valden, Clément, Colombe, and Nouvelle Marbonne.
Amandine was originally inhabited by numerous indigenous nations since the fourth millennium BCE, prior to Auressian exploration in the 1500s. In 1510, the Imperial Port of Colette was proclaimed for the Kingdom of Vervillia by famed explorer Jean-Baptiste Amand II. While the territory was staunchly Vervillian in its identity, the Blaco-Vervillian Union's formation in 1530 sparked a debate over the formal claim to the territory, which lasted until the late 18th century. However, the Blaco-Vervillian Union greatly financially and infrastructurally benefitted the Imperial Port of Colette, which by now had grown its territorial boundaries well past the initial founding site. Between the 17th and 18th centuries, the Imperial Colony of Amandine became a vital trade and economic hub for the Auressian Power, but restrictive mercantilist policies and general sentiments of neglect progressively corroded the previously strong relationship between the territory and the motherland. Already feeling forgotten by the Union, Amandine was formally gifted to the Blaykish Monarchy as a result of the War of Tyrnican Succession (1785) without any local representation in the matter; the Blaco-Vervillian Union's dissolution from the war entirely severed Amandine's governmental connection to Vervillia, worsening the situation even further against the Blaykish Monarchy.
