Xiyule

Xiyule, formally the Republic of Xiyule, is a country in Bertyllia. It borders Swigiqaq, Fallacy, and Rocquette to the north, separated by the Illojakara Mountains. The country is split into three main areas, with Kotan Island on the south, Ixihura Island on the north, and the rest of the land being the mainland, bordering the rest of Bertyllia.
Although the land that would eventually become Xiyule had been inhabited a few times before, the harsh Bertyllian climate led to little permanent civilization being formed on Xiyule until roughly 3,004,231C, when seafaring Dedare populations from northern Dornae and Colloidus managed to set up civilization in Denkyo, the country's largest city and modern-day capital. Despite its unforgiving climate, Xiyule managed to build an economy through the export of various Bertyllian goods inaccessible to the rest of Complanet, and eventually port cities started lining southern Xiyule, leading to it serving as Bertyllia's main source of trade and commerce in the modern day. As of 218D, the country is led by Prime Minister Luxo Yixahabe.
==Geography==
Most of Xiyule consists of forested land largely inhabited by coniferous spolarwood trees. Northern Xiyule is separated from Swigiqaq, Fallacy, and Rocquette by the Illojakara Mountains. Much of civilization on Xiyule, as a result of this, is located in densely-populated port cities located among the country's coast, which are often artificially heated in an attempt to keep populations warm.
===Climate===
Although mild compared to other areas of Bertyllia, Xiyule is still a Bertyllian nation, and its climate reflects that. Although located in the northern hemisphere, Xiyule is coldest during the middle of the year, as during winter months, the Rae population above Xiyule experiences a minor decline, allowing for a small handful of days with visible sunlight. The warmest temperature ever recorded in Xiyule is roughly 12°C, while on average the temperature is roughly -15°C. The lowest temperature ever recorded in Xiyule is -64°C.
==Trivia==
*Xiyule is the only country on Complanet that is split across the International Date Line, meaning that inhabitants of western Xiyule will be living in a different day than inhabitants of eastern Xiyule for roughly an hour every day.
