Silver Coast, also recognized as Silberküste, and officially the Republic of Silberküste, is a nation located in West Africanna. It is bordered by Guadosalam Africanna in the west, and the United Republic of Africanna in the north and east. The country has two capital cities: the administrative capital Agbossiam-Biesenbüren in the center, and the economic centre Koukessë on the coast, which is also its largest city. The population of Silver Coast is over 40 million, and is comprised of a diverse amalgamation of Akans, Mandé, Senufo, Kru, White Silverians, other indigenous ethnicities, and other ethnicities that formed small communities like the Quenminese and Pergamese. German is the official language of the country, with other local languages such as Bété, Jula, Baule, Abron, Anyin, and Cebaara Senufo being widely spoken. Its name reflects the silver trade that occurred during the 15th and 17th centuries with Galbadian, Atlantic, Estharian, and Pergamese merchants.

During the pre-colonial era, the Silver Coast was home to several states, which includes Beduyaan and the Tesson Empire. The states consolidated into a protectorate of the Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance in 1842 with the latter's founding of Koukessë, and was transformed into a colony in 1873 during the Scramble for Africanna. During the First Europan War, the KSK leadership under Eugen Hergenröther von Vorbeck helped to preserve the Silver Coast's colonial status, but was rescinded with the Allied victory in the Second Europan War. It became a Lucian Mandate in 1945, but achieved independence in 1949 due to the efforts of Akan politician Vinzent Niels Steinbauer. Under Steinbauer's tenure as president from 1949 to 1975, he observed the nation becoming an economic powerhouse and a regional power, even when the country was invaded by Guadosalam during the War of Lorican Aggression. Its political foundation was stable, until the rule of L. K. Gyakari precipitated economic downturn and political instability. A coup d'état was instigated against him in 1993, and dissatisfactions with the 1994 elections sparked into civil war which lasted seven years. Economic growth would once again stimulate under the presidency of Gabriel Asubonteng, and the country restored itself as an economic powerhouse. Relations with other Africannan and Europan countries are still maintained to this day, and subsequently, several Asiannan countries such as Quenmin and Joyonghea established bilateral ties in 2004 following the end of the civil war, all which assisted the country economically and politically.

Silver Coast possesses the second largest economy in West Africanna, and the fourth-largest in the continent. The economy is also resilient and stable, and continues to oversee moderate growth and provide a high gross national income per capita. The largest exporter is cocoa beans, followed by other agriculture, petroleum, technology, financial services, and tourism. Silver Coast also possesses the third best healthcare in the continent, the third highest standard of living, and a stable political atmosphere.
