Corpan

The Commonwealth of Corpan (Corpanian: Confidración de Corban, Latin: Confederationem Corpanium, Catalan: Concommunitat de Corpá), is a micronation located some kilometers away from the 2nd most populated city in California, San Francisco. It's capital is Arcus Nova.

## History

Corpan's history dates back to the 1900's, when the Valletino family, from an Italian-Catalan diaspora, composed of 32 fathers and 66 sons, had been establishing a home in the mountains from the Tomales Bay. The problem is, that it's house was then confected by the U.S. government as part of the town of Inverness (which is now the suburb of Seville)

One of it's first sons, Roig Valletino, had been founding the Nova Lux, and decided to make a new sovereign nation with the help of Vatican refugees from the First Worlfd War, all who spoke Latin. The nation was named "Corpan", which derives from the phrase "Mens sana corpore sano",which was a valuable symbol for the Valletino family.

   Corpan has been declared independent in 1931, following the Treaty of San Francisco (not to be confused with the Japan and the US peace treaty that happened two decades later), where the president of the Corpian Nova Lux, Stillingson Valletino, along with a rich man from the United States, Calvin Boeller, had been signing a treaty that recognized the independence of Corpan. However, it was still not recognized by the United States.

## Culture

Corpan's culture is predominantly derived from the former Roman culture, and most of it's population is dominantly pagan.

One of Corpan's languages is English, and the Corpanian Creole, which resulted on an experiment made by the United States for the Valletino family to speak English fluently, is spoken more.

Woody Woodpecker is known as a symbol of faithfullness and loyalty to the Corpian culture, only that they had to change it's colors to green and black due to copyright and cultural issues.

## Economy

Corpan's national currency is the Denar, which was derived from the official name of the Roman currency. The Corpian National Treasury has preserved over a thousand denars on the previous 10 years.

Corpan's GDP per capita is approximately D./2,385,374. The money is mostly taken from the agriculture, which is well preserved on the mountain of Point Reyes.

It's most rich person actually is the businessman Antonio Cardenal, who had been won over 80 denars through the last 40 days, and even established a foundation for deaf and blind people living in the microcountry.

## Subdivisions

    Corpan's current set of subdivisions had been established since the 1970 constitution. The set had included their first-tier subdivisions to be denomined as "departments", and it's second tier to "parishes." Currently, they are 15 departments (one which is a set of islands outside the mainland), and one special parish, which is known as "C.R." (Capital Region".

## Symbols

Corpan's flag has been designed by one of the followers of the Valletino family, Ward Bridgeson, who had been confected a flag for the new nation that they had been planning. It is a horizontal, tricolored flag with a circle plus a white circunference inside. Ward explained that the green was for the labor, the white was for the dignity, the black was for the recognition, and the circle represented the lunar eclipse that happened when Corpan was independent.

Corpan's symbol has been designed by Nelly Samianig, a woman descendant from Spain, in the 1940's, and it was adopted in the 1950's, to replace another existing coat of arms made by Androsia Valletino in the 1920's.

Corpan's anthem is Corpan est Meam, which is only to be sung in Latin. On international football matches, the official recording, used since 2003, consisted of an organ, a tuba and a trumpet playing the anthem.

## Telecommunications

Corpan's most watched communication service is phone streaming, Since 2015, the phone streaming, with the leader companies being MonCo and Adequat, has surpassed television standards from a 98% percent of viewers. The reason was because the Corpan television stations had been through a dark era, since they did not let them transmit American programs since 2004.

Corpan's national television station, however, is the Cofutel (Corpan Public Television Foundation), founded in 1962. It also had a independent station affiliated to DuMont since the 1950's, which was the first to air, until 2005, for breaking the television laws stated on the act of the previous year.
