Egilanak (officially the Constitutional Republic of Egilanak) is a country located in Eastern Euronia bordering Niswibik to the north, Blallia to the west, Agmeria to the west and south, and the Samson Ocean to the east. It is comprised of 7 Regions, which are divided into 45 Prefectures, and are further divided into 90 Municipalities, two from each Prefecture. Its capital and largest city is Seloysk Beach with the next largest cities being Destelink & Kroyens respectively.
The natives on this land were called the Lanak Peoples which were later called Egilanakan hence the name of the nation. They were believed to have gotten here around 35,000 years ago near the Kaynish Valley & Orustradin Plains. The first sturctures were built in the Kaynish Valley & Jemistuol Coast around 1900 BC and were the starts of the Kaynish & Forsuu Civilizations respectively. In between them were mainly undeveloped nomads and mountain folk that wouldn't make such advancements for another 1000 years. The time Egilanak was considered to have formed was in 417 AD tribes all around modern Egilanak met up and officially came together as one. 802 was when Frensez I rose to power in Egilanak and would go on to take over most of Eastern Euronia and nearly 150 years after his death would mark the Egilanak Empire at its largest in 993 AD. The start of the fall of the empire would occur almost 100 years later in 1087 and would lead to its current area in 1638. 13 years later in 1651, Egilanak would establish a democracy that would last for 132 years until Alo Bukam took power and turned Egilanak fascist. It would remain fascist until the Egilanakan Uprising of 1872, 91 years after it was established. It returned to a democracy that it is still in power today. Since then, it has developed one of the most developed militaries in Iearth and is a regional superpower. It also had a huge boom in population and GDP following discovery of coal and iron (to be turned into steel) reserves in the Treykalbenak Mountains that still provide a large portion of the GDP. It is currently led by President Alik Zholdoshev & Prime Minister Shor Karimov.
Etymology
The etymology of Egilanak is fairly questionable however there is one path that most scholars find to be the most accurate. Firstly is the Lanak people, this is where most scholars lead to when talking about Egilanak's etymology. Considering that it makes up 5 out of 8 letters in Egilanak, it is almost certain to be a derivative, which leads the question as to what the "egi-" means. Since the name had came around in the 400's, Predative Karlets was likely used at the time since it was the primary language during that time amongst the higher-ups. Unfortunately Predative Karlets was not very well documented and the best guess for what it could mean is sun or warm which come from t'egi.
