Chuliana is an island country in eastern Parania. It is situated on the northwestern Marima Ocean, and is bordered by Cheskachena and Naliland to the north, the province of Panstivo of Minuka to the west, and Mecirhan and Nacida to the southwest*. Chuliana spans an archipelago of 6,852 islands covering around 377,975 square kilometers, the main islands are the North Island, South Island, and Recca Island (The center or main island). The capital and largest city, Anastasia, is located on Recca Island and the capital itself is the most populous part of Chuliana with about 40% of the entire population of Chuliana living in Anastasia (3,200,000). Around 8,000,000 - 8,400,000 people currently call Chuliana home. 
== Geography ==
Chuliana comprises of about 6,852 islands extending along the Marima coast of Parania. Chuliana is around 67.0% forest, 16.5% agricultural, 15.3% residential, and 1.0% other. The North and South Island are both unfavorable for inhabitation due to extremely rugged and rocky natural landscapes and extremely cold weather with daytime averages sometimes reaching as low as -11℃, though in the summertime, they can be widely favorable but still chilly compared to Recca Island. Recca Island has a mixed landscape, most of the southern end of the island has very favorable landscapes for residential and agricultural areas with very flat regions for anything to be lied upon, but the mountains dividing Anastasia and the rest of the island beg to differ. Behind Anastasia, the attractive silhouette of the Georgina Mountains are a common icon for Anastasia and the southern portion of the mountains can be seen from most areas in the city. Behind the mountains and in most of the western and northern portions of Recca Island, it has a very rugged temperate rainforest biome that is not favorable for most life to live in, due to the summers and springs being intensely rainy and the winters being windy and foggy which makes the forest a very dangerous place to be in at the time, Chuliana has a unique weather phenomenon in late spring to early summer called the Fog retreat with long lasting hours of fog and wind that is mainly distributed in northern and western parts of Recca Island. 
Many animals thrive in the country, most inhabit Recca Island but the South and North Island are able to support some species. Common wildlife includes mallards (Anas platyrhynchos), Chuliana has one of the highest mallard duck populations in the world with over 450 mallards per sq km on Recca Island and around 130 mallards per sq km in the South and North Island, mallard duck hunting has always been an infamous sport in Chuliana and many hunters alike go to Chuliana just to hunt the many mallards that flutter the skies, the highest populations of mallards have been detected on the northeastern end of Recca island with an estimated 1,000 per sq km. Adding to the mallards, many other waterfowl are common in Chuliana such as barnacle goose (Branta leucopsis), common goldeneye (Bucephala clangula), tufted duck (Aythya fuligula), and common merganser (Mergus merganser), over 24% of birds documented in the rainy forests behind Anastasia are either mallards, barnacle geese, goldeneyes, tufted ducks, or megansers. Wild boars (Sus scrofa) are not known to naturally live on Chuliana and Chuliana, next to Panstivo, Dalamatia, and the Celestial Islands, are the only places in Parania known not to support natural populations of wild boars, but a group of boars were introduced for hunting in the 1980s on the North Island and currently, an established population of around 2,300 roam freely in the area. The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) occurs commonly at the northern end of Recca Island and most of the North Island and have an estimated population of between 10,000 - 15,000. Elk (Cervus canadensis) are not native to Chuliana but have very high populations of around 700,000 and are widespread throughout Recca Island, North Island and South Island. A wide variety of rodents roam the island and notable species are the house mouse, striped field mouse, and red squirrels. Raccoons (Procyon lotor) were introduced as pets in the 1940s and many were released in and around Anastasia and have been a problem in Chuliana ever since, as they destroy agriculture, rummage through trash, steal goods from vendors and locals, and feast on crops. Raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) have also been introduced to the island, more notably around the same area raccoons have been introduced to and have also wreaked havoc, they pose a threat to ground-nesting birds and other ground-dwelling animals, their also carriers of deadly pathogens. Beavers, culpeos, brown bears, eastern black deer and harbor seals are rarer individuals that are documented on the island. Extirpated species include moose, Cheskachena darolles, golden jackals, flying foxes, and chipmunks. Chuliana has over 2,000 species of birds present in the country but has a limited diversity of mammalian species with just around 22 species of mammals, likely due because of the isolation of the country to the mainland, if extirpated species were still present on the island, an estimated 57 mammalian species would be present on the island.
