Geatland (Geatish: Götland), officially the Geatish Realm, is a Euclean island country located in the North Sea. Geatland's territory comprises the Geatish Islands, of which the largest is Erikö, and the Line Islands. Its capital and largest city is Blåstad.
Geatland has an area of 90,819 square kilometers (35,065 sq mi) and a population of 6,192,106. Because Geatland is an island, its long shoreline affords it more mild temperatures than other countries on its latitude, though it may be much cooler in midland areas. The country is known for being mountaineous.
Geatland is a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy. The current monarch and head of state is Brunhild II, who has been on the throne since 1962.
Weranic peoples came to settle the Geatish Islands in the 3rd century BC. The largest and most prominent of these Weranic tribes was the Ancient Geats, who subdued and conquered their neighbors. The First Kingdom of Geatland was established in 844. Geatland was involved in various North Sea Empires until the Template:14th century AD. After the collapse of the North Sea Empires, the Geatish Islands were politically fractured until their unification in 1645. Around this time, Geatland colonized Eldmark. Following King Rudolf's War, Geatland annexed the Line Islands from Azmara in 1855. The rise of republicanism and democracy in continental Euclea triggered the Engström Revolution. Though the revolution was unsuccesful in deposing the monarchy, it resulted in the writing of a constitution and democratic reforms that ended absolutism. Geatland sided with Functionalist Gaullica during the Great War. Geatish governments after the Great War inagurated an expansive welfare state, which persists in most forms today.
Geatland is a propserous liberal democracy. It is a member of the Community of Nations, ECDTO, the Northern Forum, the AEDC, and the ITO, among others. It is notably not a member of the Euclean Community.
