Corbaria

Corbaria (pronounced /kɔːrbɛriːjɑː/), officially the State of Corbaria (French: État de Corbaria, [ɛtɑt du kɔʁbar jɑ]), is a landlocked sovereign state in Tapanthia. Corbaria borders Albia to the west, Jonathia to the south, and Canadia to the east. Corbaria has a population of 30,687,100, making it the 23rd-largest country by population worldwide, and the eighth-largest on the Tapanthian continent. Aradia is the capital and largest city of Corbaria. Other major cities include Loidun, Amorser, and Nanturon.
The Corbarian peoples have populated central Tapanthia for centuries, though a major Corbarian state did not exist prior to around 6000 BCE. Corbaria was one of the first major civilizations, especially with their own language, Ancient Corbarian; albeit the language today is extinct. Following the Wars for Louise, Corbaria unified with Albia in 1877 to form the Albo-Corbarian Empire, which went on to become a great global power. Worn out by the Blue Blood War against Cyani, the Corbarian people attempted to live a normal life, especially during the Great War. However, in 1979, as a consequence of the Northern Civil War, Albia and Corbaria were forced to split, and the State of Corbaria was recreated as a republic.
Following the collapse of the A.C.E., the Corbarian economy plummeted, though a brief spike occurred around the 1990s after a free trade deal was struck with neighbouring Canadia. As the modern era and the 21st century came along, Corbaria's economy, culture, infrastructure, and general state appearance improved. Corbaria has been a major component in the War on Terror and the Albian Civil War, both of which Corbaria had some involvement on.
Corbaria is a developed country with a large economy. It enjoys large swaths of tourism, who go to Corbaria for it's fancy buildings and rich historical sights. Corbaria is a member of the GUIS, the Commonwealth of Nations, and the Tapanthian Republic.
== Etymology ==
Corbaria, a French word, is derived from the French name "Corbarieu", namely Corbarieu I, the first monarch of the former Corbarian kingdom. In ancient times, and in some contexts as recent as the 17th century, Corbaria was referred to as Gaulia, in reference to the Gauls, the ancient people that once populated Corbaria and parts of Lyvena, Jonathia, and Elsovia.
