The '''Sabanas''', officially the '''Republic of the Sabanas''', is a [[wikipedia:Unitary parliamentary republic|parliamentary republic]] and [[wikipedia:Sovereign state|sovereign state]] located in the [[Acurian]] sea between [[Asteria Superior]] and [[Asteria Inferior]], comprising of the constituent islands of Grande Sabana, Poca Sabana, Santi Aquila e Priscilla and Montesanto. It shares maritime borders with [[Sanslumière]] to the west, [[Imagua and the Assimas]] to the east, and [[Aucuria]] to the south.
Initially inhabited by the [[wikipedia:Ciboney|Caticey]] people, the islands were first settled on by [[Caldia|Caldish]] merchants in 1521. Two years later, in 1523, the expedition of [[Raffaele di Mariran]] landed along the northern coast of Grande Sabana, claiming it for [[Etruria|Poveglia]]. For much of the colonial period, the Sabanas acted as a vibrant and resourceful [[wikipedia:plantation economy|plantation economy]], with sugar cane, cocoa and tobacco making up the largest exported goods. The economy was supplied by the labour of primarily [[Bahia|Bahian]] slaves imported between the 16th and 18th centuries, as well as Etrurian penal labourers and later on, [[Gowsa]] from south-eastern Coius.
Whilst sovereignty over the islands was held solidly by Etruria for more than two centuries, increasing pressure from rivaling colonial empires led to several disputes and conflicts during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. A long-lasting power struggle for control of the Sabanas between Etruria and historical rivals [[Gaullica]] led to sovereignty changing hands no less than twelve times over an eighty-year period. The Treaty of Hammarvik, signed in 1818, was the culmination of the often static conflict, and formally partitioned the islands between the two powers. Etruria maintained control over the northern half of Grande Sabana as well as full control of Poca Sabana, whilst Gaullica gained sovereignty over the southern portion of Grande Sabana. This arrangement remained in place until 1928, when [[Functionalist Gaullica|Functionalist]] forces crossed over into the Etrurian sector of Grande Sabana, beginning an occupation the remainder of the islands amidst the wider [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]]. A coalition of Etrurian and [[Estmere|Estmerish]] forces liberated the Sabanas in November 1934, with partition re-instated between the Etrurian zone and the new Estmerish-administered mandate. The latter would form part of the short-lived [[Oriental Republic]] until 1938, when it was finally reabsorbed by Etruria.
Independence in 1946 left a power vacuum with both [[Yuri Nemtsov|Nemtsovist]] paramilitaries and right-wing reactionaries vying for power, leading to a three-year-long [[Sabanian Civil War|Civil War]]. The war resulted in victory for the [[Revolutionary Front for the Independence of the Sabanas]] (FRIS), and the establishment of an ill-fated People's Republic in 1949. Its attempt to establish a [[Swetania]]-style [[wikipedia:Soviet democracy|council republic]] was beset by severe issues, and was terminated by a [[Nuvania|Nuvanian]]-[[Nuxica|Nuxican]]-backed coup in 1957 with a right-wing junta led by General [[Aroldo Marino]] installed. Marino's administration ruled with an iron fist, pursuing a policy of widespread [[wikipedia:economic liberalization|economic liberalization]] and [[wikipedia:privatization|privatization]], as well as closer relations with similarly Conservative countries. The peaceful [[Lily Revolution]] of 1981 brought about an end to the Marino junta, sweeping democratic reforms and a new constitution a year later in 1982. The former associated territory of Santi Aquila e Priscilla became a constituent island of the Sabanas in 1989, followed by the island of Montesanto in 2009.
The Sabanas maintains a strong [[wikipedia:two-party system|two-party system]], with a liberal [[wikipedia:market economy|market economy]] dominated by the financial and tourism sectors. The Sabanas also boasts an incredibly diverse and rich demographic make-up and culture with three main ethnic groups: [[Bahia|Bahians]], [[Coius|Coians]] and [[Euclea|Eucleans]]. Almost one-fifth of the population is mixed ([[Sabanian Creole]]: ''metako'').
