'''Gräntierik''', formally the '''Holy Peasents' Republic of Gräntierik''' is a small, extremely religious republic in North Novaris. It borders the Varentine League to the South and Cinn'fuil to the North and East, with historically disputed claims with both nations due to the seizing of ancestral lands of the Dwarves by both nations.
Gräntierik as a concept began from the interactions between exiles from Asendavian Volscina and the native Dwarf population in the 17th Century, but it was not until the ascendancy of Borko Luter and his followers - known as the '''Luterites''' - after a three year civil war that Gräntierik would come under the radical [[Ademarism|Ademarist]] sect now referred to as "Luterite Ademarism."
Gräntierik has always been notable for it's unique blend of religious doctrine and communal proto-socialist system. This so-called [[Theocratic Socialism|"Theo-Socialism"]] takes the socialistic principles of welfare, abolishment of private property and workers' rights, but views them through a religious lens, with the Church a very powerful institution in the State. This system has seen much criticism from nations on both sides of the political spectrum, with Communist and Socialist States critical of the power of the Church, while many right-leaning states opposing the communal proto-socialist systems of the nation.
