'''The Federal Republic of Equatannia''', commonly referred to as '''Equatannia''', is a unitary constitutional presidential republic known for its stunning environment, compassionate citizens, and stringent health and safety legislation.
Equatannia's geopolitical borders make up the Starr Peninsula, nearly bordering [[Durakia]] to the north, and eight small islands to the south. The capital and most populous city is Equaa, situated on the eastern side of Equity Bay. Equatannia is currently governed by three regional boards under the direct rule of the federal government: Greater Equatannia, The Federal District of Equaa, and The Isles. Equatannia has an area of [] and a population of ~8 million. Most Equatannians are Human, while there are communities of various other races.
The two most populous districts that make up the portion of Equatannia on the Starr Peninsula, Greater Equatannia and the Federal District, were once independent tribal nations that were formed after The Great War Migration lead thousands of refugees and defectors to the region. The two nations never exhibited political conflict or hostility with one another and eventually came to the agreement to unite as one federalized state in 1920. This resolution was forged over the course of six months now known as The Internal Ambition by a committee formed of ambassadors from both nations. After a period of influence throughout the 1920s and the approval of a referendum passed by the native inhabitants in 1933, the sparsely populated Isles situated south of the Starr Peninsula were annexed into the Republic as the third governmental region.
A majority of Equatannia's recent history was spent in a period of isolation that was brought about through administrative policy by Olympia Starr, the nation's first and longest-serving President (1920-1937). This policy was introduced as The Foreign Affairs Neutrality Resolution due to fear of conflict from surrounding nations during the foundational years of the fledgling federal state, and was in place from 1937 until 2019. The Foreign Affairs Neutrality Resolution forbid the Federal Government of Equatannia from interacting with any foreign national state, while allowing near-open immigration from all Urth nations. The policy was repealed after The Federal Reveal Act was passed by The People's Assembly and signed by current President Melinde Roswuud on December 21, 2019. Equatannia joined the World Assembly on May 10, 2020 and joined The East Pacific region on May 12, 2020.
