The Commonwealth of Vitosium, formerly the Kingdom of Vitaso, is a nation in the Coalition of Crown Albatross located on the continent of Adula, bordered by Kuresa, Mulfulira, and Durnstaal, with a coast along the Olympic Ocean and a maritime border with Greland. The country's capital city is Gatovita.

The country was colonized in 1789 by an explorer named Alexander Agostinio, who was also the captain of the ship, Vitaso. He would command his crew to begin construction of a city that would house his own personal palace where he would see himself as a king. With the city complete, Agostinio began to expand what he would declare a new country named Vitaso. Now known as King Alexander of Vitaso, his "thirst for blood", as historians call it, lead to a country-wide mutiny and death of the royal family in 1811. The leader of the revolt, Bruno Saivas, was named the very first Prime Minister of the new democratic country. In an attempt to erase the history of Alexander Agostinio, the country was renamed Vitosium.

In 1844, a group calling themselves The New Capital Society began negotiations with the Prime Minister at the time, William Cimantal, to make the small city of Colburn the new capital city as opposed to Etherset in an attempt to further distance the country away from Alexander Agostinio. The country was divided over where the capital city should be, leading to the 1844 Vitosium Civil War. In the end, Colburn became the new capital city and was later renamed Gatovita. In 1853, Colburn was renamed Gatovita.

Vitosium is highly placed in rankings of Most Secular (5%), Largest Basket Weaving Sector (10%), Least Corrupt Governments (10%), and Largest Automobile Manufacturing (10%).

The Vitosian economy is is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling.

As of April 18th, 2016, Vitosium joined the Western Euronia Defense Alliance (WEDA).

After a very disastrous term as Prime Minister, Raymond Venancias would lose to Vincent Gatostico, the son of former Prime Minister, Apollo Gatostico, in the 2018 Vitosium Election.

History

In 1789, Alexander Agostinio arrived with the crew of the Vitaso into unclaimed land. With a heavy thirst for power, Agostinio commanded his crew and the native tribes nearby to build a city known as Etherset. He promised the native tribes money and power in return. However, after the construction of the city, Agostinio murdered the leaders of the native tribes and forced the natives to work for him moving forward. From there, Agostinio set his sights on the small country known as Saintle Andne, which was governed by King William Lauzstanngo II. He befriended King William in 1793 and offered him the natives as slaves. However, the slaves were ordered beforehand to kill as many guards as he could while he would kill King William himself. While over half of the natives lives were lost, Agostinio found himself successful and declared his city of Etherset and the fallen country of Saintle Andne to be a new country called Vitaso, named after his ship.

In 1799, Agostinio, who forced everybody over fourteen to become soldiers, declared war on the neighbouring country, Tevitanbu. After a rough five year war, Vitaso barely came out successful and merged Tevitanbu into Vitaso. King Bertrand of Kallamar Island, scared of Agostinio's power, offered his country in exchange for safety. Agostinio accepted then executed King Bertrand.

In 1806, Soli Cardassio, a native, began to rebel within the walls of Etherset and, over the course of the next five years, turned the other natives and citizens against King Alexander. In 1811, after King Alexander had Cardassio executed, Bruno Saivas, another native, took over the role of leader of the rebellion and organized destruction and anarchy with the goal of avenging Soli Cardassio and killing the royal family. Eight months in, they were successful. With the country leaderless, Bruno Saivas took on the role. One of the first things Saivas did was rename Kallamar Island to Maydover Island so that the islanders would be able to live down the cowardice of King Bertrand. The country then made the switch from a monarchy to a democracy.

In 1838, a military conflict known as the Pia Peninsular War occurred from July 1838 to September 1939 between Vitosium and Kuresa. The war itself strained tensions between the east and west of Vitosium, leading to many parts of the country wanting to distance the country's future away from future wars. The mindset, ironically, eventually culminated in the 1844 Vitosium Civil War.

In 1844, an organization formed with a mission to distance the country from Alexander Agostinio's legacy. While the natives took back the country, the organization, known as The New Capital Society did not want Etherset as the capital city as that was the city Agostinio made. Protests and riots stemming from The New Capital Society lead to the Prime Minister at the time, William Cimantal, to try and negotiate with them. The ongoing conflict lead the country to be divided between whether the capital city should be Etherset or Colburn. Eventually, the divide grew violent and a civil war broke out. The war lasted four years and, in 1848, The New Capital Society was victorious, Colburn (later renamed Gatovita) became the new capital city, and Cimantal resigned from office.

From 2014 to 2018, former Prime Minister Raymond Venancias' carelessness led to a near economic shut down and dangers to the country's environment, leading to many protests and riots calling for Venancias' resignation. Vincent Gatostico, the son of former Prime Minister, Apollo Gatostico, would win against Venancias in the 2018 Vitosium Election and begin to restore the economy to what it was.
