Moldanovica (/moʊldænoʊvɪkə/ listen, EPR: Mold-an-Ovica, Moldanian: Moldânia; Often simply reffered to as Moldania) is a country in the crossroads of central Thuadia, bordered by Tiskaiya to the west, Kentalis and Torvon to the south, Fichmanistan to the west and Landinoso and Chernogovsk to the north. Moldanovica has a large population, around 48 million people, a mixture of ethnic Moldanians, Torvonese, Tiskaiyans and Kentalians.

Moldanovica's capital city is Sopava, with other large metropolitan areas including; Leva, Derazhchiv and Cachia. The climate is mostly temperate, fertile fields and a total area of 1,369,907km2. The Terrendover Mountains stretch across the southern border with Torvon, forming Moldanovica's highest point, Romenau Peak (3,130m). The River Mouldan runs from the western-most point of the country to the central great plains.

Moldanovica is a member of several international organisations such as the World Assembly and the Sekidean Union.

Etymology

The name 'Moldanovica' originates from the native name 'Moldania' or 'Mouldania' which originates from the River Mouldan that flows through the central plains of Moldanovica and was at the centre of power when Moldanovica united as the Principality of Mouldania in 1048. In accordance to legend, the river was named after a dog owned by Voivode Dragoș I named Moulda who drowned in the river while hunting bison. The dogs name was given to the river, which extended to the Principality.

Moldanovica is one of very few nations which goes officially by two different names, the Republic of Moldanovica and the Republic of Moldania. The more common name for the nation, however, is Moldania despite it rarely being used in official documentation.

History

Prehistory

Early human remains near the village of Prevoda in the province of Roumania date back as far as 8,000 years ago and represent some of the oldest known samples of homo sapien life on continental Thuadia. By 4,500 BC, the Neolithic Mucuteni–Typillia culture was flourishing in wide areas of modern Moldanovica due to the lush, flat and fertile lands. Areas with evidence of these civilisations include the Terrendover Mountains, Roumania and the surrounding areas of Sopava. The most well known event of the period in Moldania was the believed first Thuadian domestication of the horse, with evidence suggesting that Moldania was the first to do so on the continent.

During the iron age, the Samaritanian people arrived to inhabit the great Moldanian plains, as well as other smaller ethnic groups including the early Tiskaiyan slavic groups as well as the Roumans.

Tiskai-Moldanian United Kingdom (970-1048)

In 970, the Tsar of Tiskaiya ventured west of his lands to conquer the Moldanian tribes. In the 8 month conquest, Beginning in January and ending in August, he successfully defeated the thirteen tribal kingdoms ruling most of Moldanovica's current lands. The young Tsar would go on to create the Tiskai-Moldanian United Kingdom. This partnership would last 78 years and somewhat thrive during his rule. Creating a united economy and social structure, leading to a mass Tiskai immigration from the dense lands of Tiskaiya to the relatively sparsely populated lands of Moldanovica. These Tiskaiyans would settle in the southeast of the country closest to their native land of Tiskaiya. To help bypass the language barrier between the early Moldanian language and Slavic language, the Tsar would allow each county to have certain freedoms regarding military, education, and other things to avoid confusion. It was only really in the southeast where early English languages were intertwined with Slavic ones. Due to the language barrier and high levels of local bureaucracy, a rivalry would grow in the late years of the Kingdom, becoming a contributing factor to the later war between the two regions.

While the difference in culture was massive, Moldanian tribes and Tiskaiyans shared a love of militarism and bonded cultures over jousting, dueling, and hunting activities. The combination of these two cultures resulted in a culmination of western and eastern technology and medicines, boosting the countries growth but also serving to hamper it.

While the Tiskai Tsar was benevolent and chivalrous to the Moldanian people, he was still a foreign ruler. He was not the most popular figure, even in newer generations of Bretislavians, who had only known Tiskai leadership since birth. Even with the concessions made to Moldanovica by the Tsar, he never could remove the Moldanian spirit from the region, leading to harsh military reactions by the Tsar when Moldanians dissented against his rule and plead for a return of Moldanian independence.

Tiskai-Moldanian War

In 1000, the Tiskai Tsars wife gave birth to a child; this child would become heir to the throne of the United Kingdom. The very same month, one week later, another child would be born. This was the result of an affair the Tsar had had with a Moldanian servant. This son would be named Pavel or Paul (his Moldanian name). Both sons would grow up separated, and it wasn't until 1047 when their father told them the truth and introduced the half-brothers to each other. When the Czar died in 1048, the Moldanian son sought to free Moldanovica from Tiskaiya. After rallying Moldanovican low-nobles under his rule, he declared Independence from Tiskaiya on May 11, 1048. The Recently crowned Tiskai Tsar would quickly retaliate by raising the much more organized Tiskai army. Over the next year, brutal fighting would occur between the brother's nations, leading to thousands of deaths. It wasn't until May 1st of 1049 when the conflict would end, and the Principality of Mouldania would be proclaimed.

During the year's worth of fighting, around 15,300 soldiers died, with a majority of casualties were mostly on the Moldanian side. A majority of those aforementioned casualties occurred at the battle of Fort Bezodnya. Fort Bezodnya was a major border fort along the Tiskaiya-Moldanovica border. Stationed near and around the fort was the Army of Oryshevsk, the largest army under Tiskai control. Early in the morning, Moldanian soldiers began to siege the fort. This siege would last 3 days before a major wall breach occurred and the soldiers were able to rush the fort's garrison.

Outside of the fort, the rest of the Moldanian army was fighting a deadly battle with Tiskai forces not keen to lose the fort. After nine hours of fighting the armies were forced to withdraw, but with Fort Bezodnya under Moldanian control. The next day an ambush on the fort was carried out by the Tiskai archers, who sent hundreds of arrows through the sky towards the patrolling soldiers. It wasn't long before the rest of the Tiskaiyan army came to battle with the Moldanian army, ill-prepared for such an early battle and late to the scene. For two hours the soldiers guarding the fort would hold out from Tiskai forces until armored soldiers under the leadership of King Paul himself arrived to cut an opening for reinforcement into the fort and break through the Tiskai lines. For twelve hours the armies would fight for control well into the afternoon. Under Paul's leadership, the armored soldiers would drive out the Tiskaiyan troops from the forts surrounding area, and later a full Tiskai retreat would take place. After one week of camping out in the area surrounding the fort, the Tiskaiyan Tsar met with his brother to negotiate peace.
