**Sedland**, officially the **Republic of Sedland**, is a nation on the Lamatikan continent. The capital city, Seddeld, is located in the south of the mainland.

## Geography

Sedland's Geography is quite simple but great, Sedland is practically defended on all sides by natural terrain. The north is covered by the Merroland Mountains, the east and west are protected by large rivers, and the south is protected by the Weller Sea, Sedland has a central river coming down from the northern Mountains down to the Seddeldo Delta known as the Niaron River which formed the groundwork for the ancient Niari civilisation that was once there.

The fertile lands of Actavia allows the province to become a the Breadbasket of Sedland.

The green and beautiful Geography of the Sord Isle allows it to become a major tourist destination and a hub for trade due to its strategic location in the Weller Sea.

Meanwhile the swamps of East Sedd doesn't give much to the province and does not allow for even agriculture to be made making it the poorest province in Sedland.

## History

### Early History

Sedland traces its origins back to 231 BC in the Formation of the Kingdom of Niare in modern day Seddeld. Niare was an empire which heavily expanded northward to the coasts of modern day Cascadia and formed the **Empire of Niare** by famed first **Emperor Lexevon Archaic.** The Empire of Niare lasted for almost 500 years until in 354 CE the coming of the Western Cassacad tribes that sacked the northern half of the empire while the mainland collapsed into civil war, the Cassacad would then estimate to the culture of Niare later being called by the Niari as Casscades, later known as Cascadians.

### Seddeldo-Niare

The successor kingdom to Niare founded by General Relic Seddeldro after successfully kicking out the Cassacads and other Niari warlords from the region now known as Sedland, he was crowned King of his new domain which was still known as Niare and the capital, Niaron was renamed to Seddeld in his honor when he died.

The Kingdom would last for hundreds of years until the arrival of Colonists from Prussen.

### Colonization

Colonialism in Sedland started with the arrival of the **Koswavians** into the Seddeldo Niari kingdom in 1539 CE, at first the relations between the Koswavians and Niaris were positive, establishing trade and such, however these friendly relations did not last long as the 2 nations disputed over the ownership of the Sord Isle south of the Niaron Bay, multiple wars would be fought until the city of Seddeld would fall to the Koswavians in 1606 CE ending the Kingdom of Seddeldo-Niare, around this time and after new Koswavia colonists would begin moving to Niare now renamed to **New Marleyland**, and from them The Pilgrims arrived from Lamatika, as well as many others from Koswavia coming to the mainland and Divani coming to the Sord Isle, who would become the Sords, the Koswavians ruled over Marleyland for 200 years until the arrival of the **Prussens**, which previously won a war against Koswavia handed over Marleyland to the newly formed Prussen Empire in 1853, then renaming it **New Prussenland**.

### First Republic of Sedland

Declared by Jan Gutenburg in 1860 the First Republic of Sedland almost immediately went to war with the Prussen Empire which lasted 10 years and went about in 3 phases **First** was to secure independence of the mainlnad, **Second** was to capture the Prussen holding which is now known as **The Province of New Prussenland**, **Third** was the liberation of the Sord Isle in 1870 which by then the Prussens officially recognized Sedland's independence.

### The Toppatist Commune

Tom Topatt establishes The Commune of Sedland. The first and by far the most oppressive and totalitarian communist regime in history, far beating that of the Koryean Rouge or that of Cascadia. From its 4 year rule from 1911 to 1915 the **Toppatists** as they were called caused famines, massacres against populations sometime for no apparent reason, and attempted to commit genocide of the Ukars in the north. After the **White Rose Rebellion** on the Sord Isle, the **SRA** or the **Seddish Republican Army** was formed to combat the Commune directly which caused a nation wide civil war which lasted for 2 years before finally the commune fell in 1915.

*This event explains Sedland's intent on ridding the world of communism or socialism.*

### Th Second Republic

Founded by SRA leader **Thomas P. Jackson** who helped write the constitution and rebuild the country and became its first president from 1915 to 1941. Sedland has reached a sort of rise, immigrants from all over the world began going to Sedland for jobs and opportunities and Sedland's economy was booming.

## Politics

Sedland is a Presidential Republic based on the principles of the 1946 Seddish Constitution, a system of parliament and president where the both institutions are equal in power with the Constitutional Council overlooking the 2 institutions to prevent Constitutional violations.
