==Etymology==
==Etymology==
The word Youtabonia comes from its plural Youtabonians, which is rooted in ancient Verusian meaning "Southern Invaders", Youkta- meaning "Southern" and -banians meaning "Invaders", so going off of this, Youtabonia would mean something similar "Southern Invader Lands". Modern archaeology has revealed that the Culture and Ethnicity/Race known as Youtabonian seemed to arrived in modern-day Youtabonia around 200 C.E when they invaded by land and sea from the south to east of what was Verusia, but it is unknown where they originated from exactly.

==History==
Youtabonian History begins with Christian invaders from Eastern Europa flooded into the area of modern northern Youtabonia, known then as Verusia from the south around 200 C.E. The pagan Verusian were quickly routed from the coast as the people they called Youktabanians set up their own kingdoms. The Youktabanian and Verusian kingdoms remained in a near constant state of war well into the early years of the 1000's except for the mixed kingdom of Walre. The Youktabanian kingdom of Roan united the Youktabanian kingdoms by war and married the Queen of Walre in 1015 into the First Youtabonian Empire under Christopher I. While the descendants of Christopher I proved incapable of defeating the Verusians, they did succeed in Christianizing the Verusians.

They are the largest party in Youtabonia, and after the 2012 elections, they control all branches of government, repealing all of the laws and policies of the last Social Alliance Presidency.

Etymology

The word Youtabonia comes from its plural Youtabonians, which is rooted in ancient Verusian meaning "Southern Invaders", Youta- meaning "Southern" and -banians meaning "Invaders", so going off of this, Youtabonia would mean something similar "Southern Invader Lands". Modern archaeology has revealed that the Culture and Ethnicity/Race known as Youtabonian seemed to arrived in modern-day Youtabonia around 200 CE when they invaded by land and sea from the south to east of what was Verusia, but it is unknown where they originated from exactly.[2]

Geography

Youtabonia is located in Eastern Europa. The nation is made up of the mainland and five major islands. The islands in order from largest to smallest, August Island, Adams Island, North Island (disputed), Eagle Island, and Gardner Island. Most of the nation being subtropical highland with the rest having a humid subtropical climate. Much of the nation is covered by low, rolling forest-covered mountains and the surrounding and hilly Piedmont regions. The coastal plains cover much of the islands, which are low, open areas sparsely populated by more tropical-like trees.

  • Highest Point: Roan Mountain, 6,150ft above sea level
  • Lowest Point: Pine Island, sea level.

History

Youtabonian history begins with Christian invaders from Arhoma flooded into the area of modern northern Youtabonia, known then as Verusia from the south around 200 CE. The pagan Verusian were quickly routed from the coast as the people they called Youtabanians set up their own kingdoms. The Youtabanian and Verusian kingdoms remained in a near-constant state of war well into the early years of the 1000's except for the mixed kingdom of Walre. The Youtabanian kingdom of Roan united the Youtabanian kingdoms by war and married the Queen of Walre in 1015 into the First Youtabonian Empire under Christopher I. While the descendants of Christopher I proved incapable of defeating the Verusians, they did succeed in Christianizing the Verusians.
