Dervia (Dervian: Дервия romanized: Dervija, [dʲɛɾʋʲija]), or the Federal Republic of Dervia is a country in Abos. It is the fourth-largest country in Abos and the Xth-largest in the world. Its capital and most populus city is Gniazovo. The federal republic is composed of 6 voidvoideships, 3 republics and the Federal District. It is a significantly multicultural nation, due to a century of mass immigration from around the world.
Dervia is bordered by the Mogus Sea to the east, X to the south, the Tenific Ocean to the west, and Greater Niagra to the north. Along the Mogus coast, warm, temperate climates exist, while colder climates exist near the Niagran border. The Narak Desert comprises more than one-third of Dervia. Dervia is also home to most of the Black Mountains.
The territory which would later become known as Dervia was inhabited by numerous tribal nations prior to contact with Slavic peoples in the 10th and 11th centuries. Christianization of other Slavic peoples led to mass migration of pagan Slavs, who established city-states along the Mogus coast. The Kingdom of Gniazovo would grow to be the most influential of these states, eventually uniting most of modern-day Dervia and defeating the
Etymology

History
Pre-Migration Era
Evidence of human settlements in Dervia have dated back to 5,000 BCE.
Forgein settlement
Evidence of Indo-European settlements in present-day North Wellwood has dated back to the 6th century CE. Early Slavic and Germanic raiders and explorers were known to occasionally settle on the Dervian coast, where they encountered Native Dervian tribes. Germanic tribes from modern-day Greater Niagra migrated to the peninsula during the 6th century, and would begin raiding and assimilating tribes. The first permanent settlements of Slavic tribes began in the 9th century CE during the Slavic Migration, followed by a period of massive growth of the Slavic population. During this time, Natives, Slavic and Germanic tribes existed in a constant state of war, sometimes forming alliances to gain advantages against eachother. These tensions were escalated with the establishment of the various city-states lead by The City-State of Grunsberg in the 840s, which began a conquest of Dervia. These tensions culminated into The Gothic Wars between the Germanic and Slavic populations, with various Native tribes supporting both sides.
In response to the invasion, several Slavic tribal nations formed the Dervian Horde, led by tribal leader Boguslav. During The Gothic Wars the Horde conquered the Germanic territories in Dervia, even expanding temporarily into modern-day Greater Niagra. Almost all Germanic city-states were pillaged and destroyed. Several well-known battles took place during this time, such as the Battle at Hundur Mountain, in which the Dervian Horde, led by Buk, defeated the Gothic legions, decisively ending the Second Gothic War and ending Germanic rule in Dervia. the end of the 10th century, the Germanic population in modern-day Dervia was outnumbered by the Slavs and Natives.
The Christianization of Slavic people in other territories began a second wave of migration of pagan Slavs to the peninsula
