Zatrania

Zatrania (Zatranian: Zatrańska), officially the Republic of Zatrania (Zatranian: Republika Zatrańska), is a sovereign state located in Central Eurea, bordered by Levonia to the northeast, Alachus to the east, Magoria to the southeast, Slaveria to the south, Chusia to the southwest, and Lungary to the west. Its capital and most-populous city is Wazada, located in the northeast of the country. Zatrania has a population of about 44.5 million inhabitants.
Organized civilization in the territory of modern-day Zatrania began in 6th-century, with various small city-states and kingdoms being established. The territory was unified in the 9th-century, with the foundation of the Kingdom of Zatrania. In the 13th-century, the Kingdom merged with the neighboring Kingdom of Levonia to create the Zatranian-Levonian Empire. The Empire went on to become a dominating power in the region, with most of its political and economic power concentrated in the territory of Zatrania. Internal struggles began to emerge in the 17th-century, with the Empire collapsing in the succeeding century. After its dissolution, the territory of Zatrania was partitioned by the Lungarian Empire and Kashan Empire, with the northwestern half joining the former and the southeastern half joining the latter, as the Province of Zatrania and Zatranian Protectorate, respectively. In both the Lungarian and Kashan Empires, ethnic Zatranians faced discrimination and disenfranchisement. Following the fall of the Lungarian Empire in the 20th-century, the Province of Zatrania received its independence as the Republic of Zatrania, although the Zatranian Protectorate remained under Kashan control. With the 1925 fascist coup d'état in Kasha, the Protectorate was freed from Kashan control and joined the Republic of Zatrania, bringing forth the reunification of Zatrania. In 1935, a Kashan-supported fascist revolution occurred in Zatrania, bringing fascist rule to the nation. Civil liberties and freedoms were greatly diminished in this era, although not to the extreme extent that they were in the Kashan Union, and the nation was largely seen as a satellite state of the Kashan Union. After weakening fascist rule and growing civil unrest, democracy was restored to the country in 1980, with the introduction of free and fair elections after nearly five decades of fascist rule.
Since its reunification, Zatrania has functioned as a unitary semi-presidential constitutional republic. The constitution had been rewritten following the 1980 restoration of democracy, although its political system remained largely the same. Its head of state is the President, who serves as more than just a figurehead ruler. While the President is responsible for a number of typical head of state duties, such as signing legislation, hosting foreign dignitaries, and serving as the ceremonial commander-in-chief of the armed forces, they hold a veto power on passed legislation that can only be overridden by a two-thirds vote in parliament and can appoint whomever they choose as the Prime Minister, as long as that individual can be confirmed by parliament. In the case that the political party of the President also controls parliament, the President wields immense power as they may essentially appoint whomever they chose as Prime Minister to carry out their personal legislative agenda. The Prime Minister is the head of government, who serves as the chief legislator of the nation and leads a council of ministers responsible for legislation. The Prime Minister is appointed by the President, and must be confirmed by the members of parliament afterwards. They nominate the members of their council of ministers, who then must be formally appointed by the President. The bicameral parliament of Zatrania is the National Assembly, which consists of the Senate – the 100-seat upper house – and the Pejm – the 365-seat lower house.
Of Zatrania's population of about 44.5 million people, approximately 97.1% identifies as being ethnically Zatranian to some degree; this number is fluid, as Zatranian residents are able to denote their ethnicity as "fully" or "partially" Zatranian, and then list the ethnic groups they identify with from their strongest identity to weakest identity. In total, 97.1% of the population has at least some Zatranian ancestry. A further 2.9% of the population identifies as other ethnic groups; this 2.9% are individuals with no Zatranian ancestry. Approximately 2.3% of the population has mixed ancestry, identifying as both Zatranian and at least one other separate ethnic group, although the Zatranian government considers them to be simply ethnically Zatranian. The national and sole official language of Zatrania is Zatranian, a Slavoric language. Zatranian is spoken natively by approximately 96.5% of the population, while the remaining 3.5% speak other languages natively, often Alachusian, Kashan, or Levonian. Approximately 95.9% of the population identifies as adhering to Eurean Catholicism, while 1.4% identify as belonging to a different Christian church, 0.6% as belonging to a different religion, and 2.1% identify as atheist, agnostic, or unaffiliated. Zatrania is a very religious nation, with 59.5% of the population stating that they attend religious services at least weekly. This number makes Zatranians the most devoutly religious national group in Eurea.
