Staberia

Staberia (Staberian: Stabyry), officially the Majestic Kingdom of Staberia (Staberian: Stabyru Manyryku-Yalu), is a landlocked sovereign state on the continent on the continent of Andoladia. It borders Mosfall and Breck to the north, Largantia to the west, Brant to the south, Gelerland to the east, and Jurndaze to the northeast. Staberia has a population of 16,580,114, making it the 51st-largest country by population worldwide, and the 13th-largest of the countries in Andoladia. The capital and largest city of Staberia is Hanusani.
Staberian culture descended from that of the nearby Jurndazian and Kareon cultures. The region composing modern-day Staberia was first populated around 2,000 years ago. The first Staberian nation, the Duchy of Staberia, declared independence from the Kingdom of Breck in 1223 CE. A brief war over Staberia's secession soon occurred, which ended in a Staberian victory. In 1859, a republican rebellion sparked in the country, which led to the overthrowing of the monarchy. The Staberian Republic remained independent throughout the Resource War, despite invasion by Rockland. Staberia remained neutral during the Great War. In 1952, Centrallia invaded and annexed Staberia as well as Karon, Karenia, and Jurndaze. Staberia remained a part of Centrallia until the Centrallian War. During this time, Buneky Novohny, an outspoken member of the Staberian resistance, rose in popularity. Novohny was soon made head of state of the new Staberian nation, after which he declared himself "monarch for life".
Staberia is a developing country. It is a member of the GUIS. Its low levels of democracy have led to widespread criticism from observers.
