The '''UnitedImperial KingdomsKingdom of Great Morstaybishlia and Justelvard''', commonly known as '''Great Morstaybishlia''' (officially '''MBEMSB''', sometimesbut often informally abbreviated to the '''GMBMBE''') is a [[wikipedia:unitary state|unitary]] [[wikipedia:sovereign state|sovereign state]] and [[wikipedia:transcontinental country|transcontinental country]] in [[Aurora]] and southeastsouthern [[YasteriaCereneria]]. Great Morstaybishlia includes [[Staynes]], [[CaltharusKaltariezh]], [[Valeria]] and [[JustelvardJusdelva]], as well as other islands. Great Morstaybishlia shares land borders with thirteenseven countries (from left to right); [[Axdel]], [[ValericaQayam]], [[Rosalica]], [[Asilica]], [[DurentriaDrakaland]], [[North Ethalria]], [[ThalriaBlueacia]], [[NolovaTivot]], [[Tuvaltastan]],and [[VolovaMarislia]], [[Baykalia]],and neighbours [[BlueaciaDewnania]] andin the [[TivotFilari Sea]]. JustelvardJusdelva shares no land borders except on one island with the [[EastFree MalaysiaPax States]] and a Tivot district of Tivot, whilst neighbouring the [[The Oan Isles|Kohatu Isles]] by sea. The [[Morstaybishlian Sea]] lies between the north coasts of Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh and the south coast of JustelvardJusdelva. The [[Caven Sea]] sits north of JustelvardJusdelva, and the [[Azure Sea]] sits south of Valeria. The [http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Packilvanian_Ocean| [Packilvanian Ocean]] starts at the left coastline of [[Staynes]] and the north-westernmost island in JustelvardJusdelva.

Great Morstaybishlia is a [[wikipedia:Constitutional monarchy|constitutional monarchy]] with a two-House parliament system. The current monarch is [[Lambertus VII]], who has reigned since 1991 and the heir apparent is [[Princess Rosamund|Rosamund]]. The capital is [[Sani Bursil]], a [[wikipedia:global city|global city]] and [[wikipedia:financial centre|financial centre]] with an urban area population of 50 million in 2019, the largest in Aurora, largest in the [[United Nations of the Auroran Continent]] and largest in [[Urth]]. Other major urban areas in Great Morstaybishlia include [[AeternumRouanezkador]], Kirdintayos, Lamburtupol, Valeron, Redrugus, [[Fort Jubrayn]], Imbazdu, Fort Vitaryn and Kasidura. The nearby [[FrorkstolmEskomia]] and [[Necraties Islands]] are not part of Great Morstaybishlia, being Crown dependencies with the government responsible for defence and international representation.

The relationships among the countries of the Great Morstaybishlia have changed over time. In 1515, [[Lambertus III]] [[Battle for Caltharus 1515|united the thrones of Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh]] which formed the United Kingdom of Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh, which went on to become the sovereign state of the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]]. JustelvardJusdelva was annexed by the MorstaybishlianKaltariezh Empire afterbetween the1483 [[Greatand Morstaybishlia#Morsto-Justelvardic War|Morsto-Justelvardic War]] in 16041485. JustelvardJusdelva declared independence from the EmpireMorstaybishlia in 1967, but was not recognised until 1975. Valeria seceded from Staynes in 1975 which saw it obtain status within Great Morstaybishlia two years later under the Acts of Union, and in 2016 JustelvardJusdelva entered a political union with Great Morstaybishlia under the Acts of Union of Great Morstaybishlia and JustelvardJusdelva leaving the present formulation of the UnitedImperial Kingdom of Great Morstaybishlia and Justelvard. The Morstaybishlian Empire transitioned from an [[Wikipedia:Absolute monarchy|absolute monarchy]] to a [[Wikipedia:Constitutional monarchy|constitutional monarchy]] in 1917 by the end of the [[Great War]], establishing a democratically elected [[Wikipedia:Parliament|parliament]] which ended slavery the same year. The MBE is one of the last reminders of colonial times with nineteen [[Morstaybishlian Empire|Overseas Territories of Great Morstaybishlia]]; remnants of the Morstaybishlian Empire which, at its height in the 1800s, encompassed almost a tenth of the world's land mass and was the largest empire in history. Today, they collectively comprise of 106.144 million people over 828,243 sq km; whilst Great Morstaybishlia exists over 5,940,250 sq km and recorded 515.88 million people in its 2021 census, the first year the country recorded over half a billion people. Morstaybishlian influence can be observed in the language, culture and legal systems of many of its former colonies.

Great Morstaybishlia has been a member state of the [[United Nations of the Auroran Continent]] since its formation in 2017; the successor union to both the [http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Auroran_Continental_Assembly| Auroran Continental Assembly], where the MBE was a member state, and the [http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Auroran_Union| Auroran Union]. The MBE's council representative of the UNAC is [[Fischan Rhye]] who was appointed in December 2017. Great Morstaybishlia is also a member state of [[IRSA]], the [[Morstaybishlian Economic Sphere]] and Morstaybishlian Commonwealth, as well as Special Member of the [[NSTO|North Shield Treaty Organization]], a Permanent Invitee to the [[OFAC]], and has Observer Status in the [[Alliance of Northwest Gondwana]] and the [[League of Novaris]].

The word Morstaybishlia derives from an amalgamation of Morsa Lake, Staynes and the Bishlans. It is often misinterpreted for "More Staynes and the Bishlans". The true meaning of the name Morstaybishlia can be read from the founding documents of 1515 where is it described as "The Staynish people whom control the heart of the continent Morsa Lake; unionised with the [[Bishlan]] cultures of the east."; though Bishlan was latinised to Bishlia in the shortened form name Morstaybishlia. Bishlan derives from the [[Wikipedia:Breton language|CalthKalt]] name of the Ider River "Aberbish", and replaces the CalthKalt place-name prefix ''[[Wikipedia:Aber and Inver (placename elements)|Aber]]'' with the Middle Staynish place-name suffix ''[[Lan (placename element)|Lan]]'', which literally means "shallow seas".

The 2016 Acts of Union declared that the kingdoms of Great Morstaybishlia and JustelvardJusdelva were "United into Oneone Kingdom by the Name of Great Morstaybishlia and Justelvard", thoughwhere the new state is also referred to in the Acts as the "Imperial Kingdom of Great Morstaybishlia", "United Kingdom of Great Morstaybishlia" andsimply "Great Morstaybishlia".

Although Great Morstaybishlia as a sovereign state is a country; Staynes, CaltharusKaltariezh, Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva are also regarded as countries, though they are not sovereign states. The Prime Minister's website has used the phrase "countries within a country" to describe Great Morstaybishlia.

The adjective "Morstaybishlian" is commonly used to refer to matters relating to Great Morstaybishlia and rarely as a synonym for Great Morstaybishlia. The term has no definite legal connotation, but is used in law to refer to Great Morstaybishlia citizenship and matters to do with nationality. People of Great Morstaybishlia use a number of different terms to describe their national identity and may identify themselves as being Staynish, CalthianKaltian, South Staynish, JustelvardicJus; or as being Laulian, and still in some cases Horkalic, except Horkalic refers to the ethnic group HorkalansMarislian. A growing minority of people have identified themselves with Morstaybishlian nationality after the Acts of Union 1977, likely a patriotic spur.

After the Union of the Thrones in 1515, the two kingdoms were briefly known as the "United Kingdom of Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh" and subsequently their empire was known as the "Staynish-CaltharusKaltariezh Empire" until it was formally dubbed the "UnitedImperial Kingdom of Morstaybishlia" in early 1517.

The Acts of Union 1977 decreed the UnitedImperial Kingdom of Morstaybishlia in political unification with Valeria. By extension of ''Kingdom territory'', the region of "Morstaybishlia" was given the epithet "Great", short for "Greater".

The Acts of Union 2016 decreed the UnitedImperial Kingdom of Great Morstaybishlia in political unification with JustelvardJusdelva to ratify the earlier 2016 Treaty of Union and so unite the two kingdoms.

In 2017, a new design of Morstaybishlian passport was introduced. Its first page shows the long form name of the state in Staynish, Calth, JustelvardicKaltareg and HorkalicJusdelviz.

====EarlyStaynish Middleconquests Ages=of Valeria===

=====Colonising the South Concordian Ocean=====

After successfully beating the [[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Ethalrian Empire]] over Gronmund Port, Morstaybishlian influence would begin to soar over the lands which made up modern day Luxaria. Within less than five years, due to a strong embargo on the Kingdom of Luzura, their influence waned, and eventually it was assimilated into the Morstaybishlian Empire.

Over the next four years, merchant ships leaving AeternumRouanezkador and other ports in north CaltharusKaltariezh and Staynes were going missing and businesses in these ports were closing down from a loss of income. It was explored by the Morstaybishlian navy but there was no explanation until by chance MBS Queen Aprille was mistaken as a merchant vessel and attacked by a Caven warship but survived. Morstaybishlia later declared war on the Caven Empire.

Morstaybishlia played a leading part in the PacificCerenerian and Concordian slave trade, mainly between 1673 and 1917 when Morstaybishlian or Morstaybishlian-colonial ships transported nearly 5 million slaves from Gondwana in a legal system of human [[Wikipedia:Chattel slavery|chattel enslavement]]. The slaves were taken to work on plantations in Morstaybishlian possessions, principally in [[Saint Matilda]], the [[Morstaybishlian West PacificCerenerian Territories|Morstaybishlian West PacificCerenerian]], [[JustelvardJusdelva]] and Luxaria, but also Aurora. The rapid expansion of the cotton and flax industries after the invention of the [[Wikipedia:Cotton gin|cotton gin]] and [[Wikipedia:Spinning wheel|spinning wheel]] greatly increased demand for slave labour. Slavery coupled with the West PacificCerenerian sugar industry had a significant role in strengthening and developing the Morstaybishlian economy in the 18th century. Throughout the later 19th century movements called for the monarchy to install laws similar to other nations which began restricting and abolishing slavery, and giving slaves more rights, but this did not succeed. However, when Parliament was formed in 1917 following the handover of absolutism from the monarchy, it banned the slave trade and banned slavery in the Morstaybishlian Empire, freeing over 5 million slaves.

Through reward programs, former slaves were encouraged back to their origin countries, though it largely fell through and former slaves instead settled in the colonies where they had been set to work in. Today, large portions of former slaves live in [[Lokania]], JustelvardJusdelva, throughout the PacificCerenerian and in Gondwana - which can be seen in the distribution of large minority ethnic groups in these colonies.

[[Florence II]] ascended the throne when her father died at the end of the First Posolic Wars. Her opponents believed that due to her tucked away and extravagant lifestyle she would be weak leading Morstaybishlia into the 19th century. The Second Posolic Wars confirmed her as the opposite; a titanic leader who glided Morstaybishlia back into its role as the world superpower. Her reign, the reign of her son [[Frederick III]] and her granddaughter [[Rosamund II]] marked the Golden Era where Morstaybishlia reach the zenith of its economic and political power. Exciting new technologies such as railways, photography, telegraphs and steam ships emerged, making the world far faster-paced. Morstaybishlia reinstated its mostly active role in Continental politics which had been challenged by Ethalria and BaykaliaBiramura in the years before.

Despite these changes, Morstaybishlia lacked behind in its democratic index. It was still an absolute monarchy, and even though there was movements to change, an elected parliament would not happen until 1917. However, the Privy Council of Staynes and Privy Council of CaltharusKaltariezh which were appointed by the Crown and served at the Crown's pleasure became more autonomous, including consolidating the two devolved administrations of Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh into one, based at Kalmington Palace, Sani Bursil, and helmed by a Chief Minister, equivalent of a [[Prime Ministers of Great Morstaybishlia|prime minister]] today. This became the House of Peers in 1831, and were the first example of a unified chamber of Peerage from across the homeland. They drafted legislation in the name of the King, or Queen, at their pleasure, and the monarch was perfectly in their right to stop legislation from passing. In fact, this was common practice. The monarch remained untouchable and unaccountable to the House of Peers, and had a large sway among leading figures to bend them into submission.

Amongst the most consequential reforms enacted by the new parliament was the declaration that Axdel would transition from being a royal principality into a dominion in December 1917. TheIn addition to its seats in the national parliament, the Dominion was granted a devolved elected legislature which, whilst fundamentally subservient to the Morstaybishlian parliament, gave it a reasonable degree of control over its domestic economic and military policy. Whilst the decision was far from uncontroversial, as a strong believer in democracy as a unifying force Prime minister Klarass was a proponent of the idea as a means of garnering trust with the people of Axdel. Most seats in the dominions legislature would be filled by the big-tent pro-independence Kuesla parliamentary party. Although the Morstaybishlian government took measures to ensure that far left groups and cavan nationalists were driven out of mainstream politics, their presence would remain ever present throughout the early-mid 20th century. [[Alton Kresjarl]] would attempt to dissolve the Axdelian parliament in 1925 but fail by a margin of 5%.

[[File:Oanese blackbirding circa 1918.jpg||right|thumb|250px|Blackbirding was illegal but was a popular alternative to the slave-trade in the Morstaybishlian colonies as late as the 1930s. <br>Pictured: Oan peoples, with an overseer (background), on a sugar plantation, in New Pondsfort, [[Morstaybishlian West PacificCerenerian Territories|Morst West PacificCereneria]], c. 1919.]]

Parliament passed the Slavery Abolition Act 1917 with over 79 percent of the House of Representatives voting in favour. The Act made the purchase and ownership of slaves in all of the Morstaybishlian Empire illegal and immediately freed over 5 million slaves. Slavery had been a point of social contention for nearly all of the 19th and early 20th century leading up to its abolition, with its abolition being a primary benefactor of their movement. By January of 1918, the Morstaybishlian Empire had de jure implemented the Act in its declining oversea territories, though de facto there was still an active slave trade in many territories. Following the thirteen years of warfare, the [[Imperial Navy]] was heavily damaged and initially struggled with enforcing the legislation. Many of the closer territories to continental Morstaybishlia, including New CalthKalt, Luxaria, Ruxalara and JustelvardJusdelva followed suit with the mainland and who's people accepted the changes, but elsewhere it was different.

In the colonial and territorial administrations of Joralesia, Salisar, the Morst West PacificCereneria, Dalmaghar, Kurandia, and others recognised the Act and implemented it, but clandestine slave-trading and [[Wikipedia:Blackbirding|blackbirding]] still occurred as late as the mid 1930s. Though it was hit with the economic depression and major de-colonisation following the war, the Imperial Navy immediately established a presence off of the coasts of these territories where there were rumours, sightings, reports or evidence of ongoing slavery, as well as negotiating with countries neighbouring these colonies and territories for their rights to stop and search vessels believed to house slaves. The Imperial Navy dispatched three squadrons of four, five and eight [[Wikipedia:Town-class cruiser (1910)|light cruisers]] to the [[PacificCerenerian Ocean]], as well as the south and north [[Concordian Ocean]] respectively. With bases at Montecadre, what is now Penisine Garrisons in Balidar, and Bruzraka; the squadrons aided in the capture of over 2,100 slave ships, freeing over 205,000 people from slavery between 1917 and 1934. However, unfortunately this did not exactly reduce the number of deaths of slaves. Thousands lost their lives if the captain of a slave ship knew they were being approached by a squadron vessel. The captain would order for the slaves to be thrown overboard still shackled. Very few would make it to shore.

By the late 1950's, the counterculture movement emerged across Aurora as a response to established norms, and with it, and increased number of protests and riots within Axdel, predominantly in the Emberwood and Quartz fern regions. Using it as cover for their activities, the NPLP and other groups became significantly more prolific, especially in higher education and universities. With public opinion becoming critical, [[Ian Crowcasa]] stated in a private cabinet meeeting in 1964 that a violent uprising in Axdel would "certainly occur within the next few years", and that it would tip the balance of power on the continent dangerously towards Ethalria. As a stop-gap solution to mitigate the effect any uprising would have on the empires control of the region and trusting the, Crowcasa approved a boost to defence spending that including a sizeable subsidy for the the ADF, believing that boost would allow any local unrest to be dealt quickly and independently, as well as to provide aid in defending from potential Ethalrian naval assaults. In the following years, production of arms and war materiel ramped up, reservist numbers increased more than fourfold, and many more officers were covertly trained in preparation for the number of soldiers which were expected to form the new Noroist Army. In order to hide the stockpiles of arms, much of what was produced officially written off as lost or damaged before being hidden in warehouses, hangars and drydocks by non-military personnel. Occasionally moreMore conspicuous equipment such as warships and planes werewas sometimesoccasionally stored or even built in other countries. Whilst leaks inevitably occurred, they were few enough that this successfully concealed much of firepower the ADF truly had from the Morstaybishlian government for the critical years approaching their independence.

In April, in a highly controversial moment, a gunman in a police disguise was mistakenly identified as Labius Deputy Police Officer Aero Benagli and was allowed on set during a live television broadcast where the President was filming. The gunman, Fred Greidman, fired and shot Greta several times in the chest and stomach before shooting himself. Immediately following the incident, fascist opponent Morgan Lugin seized power of the senate. Civil unrest was intensified, and infighting began in major cities. The armed forces was dispatched and under Morgan Lugin was ordered to fire live ammunition at violent protesters. Several thousand people were massacred. This action sent the country into civil war and Lugin lost the trust of [[Delores Sofura]] and other fascist allies. With infighting reaching extreme heights, Lugin was forced to resign by his own council and later went into exile. A new interim government ran by seven members of the Vardem Committee believed it was in the national interest to reintegrate with Morstaybishlia. The committee flew to Sani Bursil to begin negotiations, and a few months later, Morstaybishlia recognised Valeria as an entity and Valeria integrated into the nation under the Acts of Union 1977. This formed a political union with the UnitedImperial Kingdom of Morstaybishlia to create the UnitedImperial Kingdom of Great Morstaybishlia.

Delari viewed this negatively, and made public his views on how Meremaa has lost its sovereignty and how the Morstaybishlian Government no longer viewed the government of Meremaa as legitimate. As civil unrest grew into civil war, Delari endorsed the Democratic Socialist movement, led by [[Tyr Vaines]], which branded itself as the Republican Forces of Meremaa, whilst simultaneously sending its PacificCerenerian Fleet to protect the Morstaybishlian asset of Dalmaghar.

The Morstaybishlian government acted swiftly, though critics argue there were obvious signs a military coup d'etat of Redrugus and Horkalo was happening under their noses months before it happened. Before separatists gained air superiority, Morstaybishlian long-range bomber aircraft disabled several naval vessels, including MBS ''Horkalo'', a [[Litop Class|''Litop''-class IIA]] destroyer. The surrounding waters of Xenliada saw naval engagement, where ships under MBE scrambled to escape State control and disabled targets where they could. Four ships under the MBE's control were sank, including two [[Wikipedia:Admiral Gorshkov-class frigate|''AeternumRouanezkador''-class frigates]], MBS ''Walverdon'' and MBS ''Torrin'', claiming a total of 787 crew. Seperatists were fought back to the Heldon Bridge, where they destroyed it, thus forming the line of control that would remain until Great Morstaybishlia invaded two years later.

[[File:Johannes and Samsey.png|right|thumb|300px|Prime Minister [[Walter Johannes]] of Great Morstaybishlia (left) and Prime Minister [[Arran Samsey]] of JustelvardJusdelva (right) after signing the Acts of Union of Great Morstaybishlia and JustelvardJusdelva in 2016.]]

JustelvardJusdelva faced continuous trouble with a language and cultural divide since it was colonised in the earlylate 17th15th century. JustelardJusdelva, who seceded from Morstaybishlia upon the closure of the Auroran Imperial War was bound by the Port MakuhLoeizaporzh Agreement, signed by former Prime Minister [[Delores Gastrell]] and the first Prime Minister of JustelvardJusdelva JamesinaRiannar B. SeferaCarrington, which stated that "if at any stage it is clear that a majority of constituencies in JustelvardJusdelva hold pro-Morstaybishlian seats, then a referendum for Morstaybishlian reunification would be considered" and that, under these terms, "a Morstaybishlian reunification would see JustelvardJusdelva become a functioning member state of Great Morstaybishlia as opposed to territory of the crown". After the 2014 JustelvardJusdelva Generalgeneral Electionelection, the new Prime Minister Wiley Gordwin was elected but led a minority government, his opposition could not form a government but which formed for the first time a majority for pro-Morstaybishlia. Gordwin controversially ignored this clause in the Port MakuhLoeizaporzh Agreement, and had a huge backlash from politicians and the general public. At the time, Gordwins' opinion polls dropped to 23 percent, the lowest of any JustelvardicJusdelviz Prime Ministers ever. A general election was called after a vote of no confidence. The Liberal League of JustelvardJusdelva lost ten seats in the 2015 JustelvardJusdelva Generalgeneral Electionelection and the JustelvardicJusdelviz Unionist Party was voted in. His successor, and the new Prime Minister [[Arran Samsey]], held a referendum on 16 December 2015 which saw a 65 percent vote for Morstaybishlian reunification, though no constituency in the WesternEastern Outliers voted to leave. Samsey flew to Sani Bursil on as many as eleven occasions to discuss with [[Walter Johannes]] an agreement. One year later to the day, on 16 December 2016, the UnitedImperial Kingdom of Great Morstaybishlia and JustelvardJusdelva came into being, the result of Acts of Union being passed by the parliaments of Great Morstaybishlia and JustelvardJusdelva and so unite the two kingdoms.

====Auroran-PacificCerenerian War====

[[File:Ethalrian bombing of a Calth village.jpg|right|thumb|275px|Ethalrian bombing of a CaltharusianKaltariz town.]]

With Stratarin's Premier [[Viktor Drugov]] losing his position of power to Mikhail Starikov, Great Morstaybishlia lost one of its great allies. Starikov made his intentions known and became allies with the Matriarchy of Ethalria, the Greater Ethalrian Empire and Kostromastan, forming the axis. Stratarin played a vital role in military armament and funding of the axis; in particular Kostromastan, who had used this aide to push an invasion deep into Nocturne. Kostromastan and Stratarin would aim to push deep into Barbarus and Laulia Provinces to ambush the vastly spread and deeply entrenched allied forces in their battle over north Ethalrian cities, and a planned Strataric naval invasion on the beaches of Aurus and Laulia Provinces was narrowly prevented when their naval routes were cut off by the [[The Oan Isles|Oan Isles]], which began the PacificCerenerian Theater of War. Great Morstaybishlia immediately amassed a force with [[Lokania]] and [[Kuthernburg]] to invade both Ethalrias. Facing fierce opposition, the allies narrowly secured victories in Arkenvel and Avenai in late June and July, later beating the Matriarchy of Ethalria in the battle for Karinthus and later Ribenstadt, the Ethalrian capital which would lead Harimann into hiding and see the Ethalrian Vice Matriarch sign the Instrument of Surrender on the 24th of October. In the west the allies were repelled into Valeria, with bombing of cities Leriad, Burleron and Kovaro killing millions of people, but upon the surrender of the Matriarchy of Ethalria, the Greater Ethalrian Empire caved into pressure on all sides from the allies, herself surrendering soon thereafter. Immediately following the war, Great Morstaybishlia, as well as Axdel, Tuvaltastan and the Oan Isles saw the fragmentation of both Ethalria's and occupied each zone which became the six [[Ethalns|Ethaln]] countries.

====Since the Auroran-PacificCerenerian War====

The addition of Packilvania alongside Great Morstaybishlia plateaued rising troop deployment from the NSTO and UCA.

Terrorists co-ordinated two attacks that took place on 24 July 2020 in Barbarus and Jomsgord Provinces, CaltharusKaltariezh, Great Morstaybishlia. Beginning at 08:36, one Khadgar tank operated by terrorists alongside 37 terrorists shot and blew up the side of the Barbarus police headquarters building before committing a mass shooting. At 9:06 another tank and gunmen committed a second mass shooting on the Khauser police headquarters. Both mass shootings resulted in a standoff with police. 67 civilians were killed and another 71 injured. 67 of the suspected 81 attackers were killed. Since the attacks, nobody has taken responsibility. Prime Minister Franklin Barvata initiated a state of emergency which was declared across Great Morstaybishlia to help fight terrorism, involving the banning of public demonstrations, and allowing the police to carry out searches without a warrant, put anyone under house arrest without trial and block websites that encouraged acts of terrorism. Calthia, Laulia, Aurus, Barbarus, Jomsgord provinces of CaltharusKaltariezh were put on Black Alert with a curfew of 21:00, football matches and pubs were also closed and non-essential travel became prohibited. The [[July 2020 CaltharusKaltariezh attacks]] were the deadliest in Great Morstaybishlia since the Auroran Imperial War.

The [[August 2020 CaltharusKaltariezh police attack]] saw a drone bomb attack into a meeting of chief constables in Kola House, Nocturne provincial police headquarters, eastern CaltharusKaltariezh, Great Morstaybishlia; that happened at 14:05 and claimed the lives of six chief constables, one deputy chief constable and one site engineer. No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, although in a nation addressed Prime Minister Franklin Barvata insisted that the same group responsible for the July 2020 CaltharusKaltariezh attacks are to blame.

Great Morstaybishlia has an area of 5,940,250km² (or 2,293,542 square miles). The mainland part of Great Morstaybishlia is made up of Staynes, CaltharusKaltariezh and Valeria which are collectively referred to as Morstaybishlia. JustelvardJusdelva is an archipelago located in the Caven Sea that forms the metropolitan part of the Great Morstaybishlia along with Morstaybishlia. This article will refer to the metropolitan part of the MBE unless it specifically refers to one, some or all of its numerous overseas territories.

The average elevation is 845 m (or 2772 ft). The highest elevation is the summit of [[Zycannes#Mount Kersivius|Mount Kersivius]] which is 7,405 m (or 24,294 ft). The lowest elevation is the Nepiditras Depression in CaltharusKaltariezh (at 79 m below sea level). The longest river is Stayn River with a length of 5,216 km (or 3241 miles). The largest lake by surface area is Morsa Lake with an area of 129,850 km² (or 50,135 square miles). It is the second largest lake by surface area on [[Urth]].

The geology of JustelvardJusdelva and Morstaybishlia are different. JustelvardJusdelva was formed from volcanic activity and as such it has igneous rock with a base of basalt rock. Morstaybishlia has sedimentary rock with high amount of metals such as iron, aluminium and silicate minerals, precious metals such as silver, rhodium, palladium, platinum and gold, semi precious and precious stones such as sapphire, ruby, garnet, emerald and red beryl, and fossil fuels such as petroleum, natural gas and coal.

Great Morstaybishlia as a whole comprises largely varying [[wikipedia:Ecosystem|ecosystems]]. JustelvardJusdelva has an entirely [[wikipedia:tropical climate|tropical climate]] and over 65% of the land is made up by the Flizon rainforest. The Flizon is recognised as being one of the greatest biological diversity sites in the world and is a lot more species rich than the Jubrione evergreen rainforest despite its higher level of biodiversity to other evergreen rainforests, caused by large annual rainfall from Morsa Lake which extends all the way to the Agners mountains and the Staynes-CaltharusKaltariezh border.

Small regions of [[Wikipedia:Moorland|Moorlands]] and the [[Wikipedia:Gran Sabana|Great Savanna]] form a natural barrier around the Jubrione evergreen rainforest to the temperate deciduous forests in Staynes. The Great Savanna offers one of the most unusual landscapes in the world, with rivers, waterfalls and gorges, deep and vast valleys, impenetrable jungles and savannahs that host large numbers and varieties of plant species, a diverse fauna and the isolated table-top [[Wikipedia:Mesa|mesas]]. The Great Savanna extends all the way from the western Staynish coast to the centre-north CaltharusianKaltariz coast, though it is split into western and eastern regions. Much of it has been turned into agriculture or settlement by humans over millennia, though considerable amounts have been protected as national parks today.

In part of being split by two mountain ranges, the Zycannes and the Kalivian mountains; CaltharusKaltariezh is split into three different regions. The north of the Zycannes is windward and hosts a mixture of temperate climates, present in the north and north west is an oceanic climate and closer to the Zycannes is a typical continental climate. Immediately below the Zycannes is a narrow belt of cold desert called the Waron Desert and the Versuben mountains which connects to the Zycannes in two places and forms a segregated low area of hot arid land known as the Versubish Desert. Between the Waron Desert and the Kalivian mountains there are areas of large precipitation and thus forms a large wet temperate forest region. North of the Kalivian mountains is windward and south of the mountains is leeward, giving the provinces of Nocturne and some of Barbarus and Jomsgord a mixture of steppe and a semi-arid deserts.

In the seas surrounding Great Morstaybishlia, JustelvardJusdelva is host to some 25 [[Wikipedia:Deep-water coral|deep-water corals]] primarily in the Western Outliers Province but also in the Dorghold Islands chain between Sinerus Island and Varness. The largest deep-water corals are Pannagar corals which extends over a length of about 43 kilometers (27 mi), and has a width of up to 6.9 kilometers (4.3 mi) and Kenure corals which extends over a length of about 31 kilometers (19.2 mi), and has a width of up to 5 kilometers (3.1 mi). The deep-water corals belong to the [[Wikipedia:Cnidaria|Phylum Cnidaria]] and are mostly [[Wikipedia:Scleractinia|stony corals]], but also include [[Wikipedia:Antipatharians|black and horny corals]]. The black and horny corals aren't present in the 4 deep-water corals off the coast CaltharusKaltariezh and Staynes respectively. Off the coast of Valeria and encompassing most of the continental waters in the Azure Sea lies a [[wikipedia:Kelp forest|kelp forest]].

Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh make up the Morstia region as their climates, flora and fauna are very dissimilar. The Morstia region hosts the most plant species in metropolitan Morstaybishlia. The Jubrione evergreen rainforest is a deciduous [[Wikipedia:Broad-leaved tree|broadleaf]], wet, high diversity rainforest; and as such contains over 50 percent of all plant species in metropolitan Morstaybishlia. The [[Wikipedia:Maple|Maple]] is found in the Jubrione and is Morstaybishlia's national tree; it has since been exported around the world through the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]]. Although a broad leaf forest, [[Wikipedia:Coniferous|coniferous]] trees make up over ten percent and are invasive, non-native species introduced from Gondwana in the 16th and 17th centuries.

The rest of Morstia is typically inhabited by deciduous forest, plains and moorland with a diverse pattern of vegetation. As with most of Aurora, prehistoric Morstaybishlia was covered with forest and swamp. Clearing began around 5,000 BCE and accelerated in medieval times. Despite this, Morstaybishlia retained its primeval forests and evergreen rainforest longer than most of Aurora due to its size, and wood shortages were not a problem until the 17th century. By the 18th century, around 50 percent of Morstaybishlian forests were consumed for shipbuilding or manufacturing charcoal and the nation was forced to import lumber from Arcturia. Today, most forest land in Morstaybishlia is maintained by state forestation programmes. Almost all land outside urban areas is farmland. However, relatively large areas of forest remain in north and south-west Staynes, north CaltharusKaltariezh and south-eastern Valeria. The most common trees in Morstaybishlia are beech, silver birch, elm and pedunculate oak. Natural forests in Morstaybishlia consist mainly of Maple or Oak. Farmland hosts a variety of semi-natural vegetation of grasses and flowering plants. Woods, hedgerows, mountain slopes and marshes host heather, wild grasses, gorse and bracken. Morstaybishlia has several national flowers, including the Hydrangea, Daffodil and the Morst Rose.

JustelvardJusdelva is rich and varied, with habitats ranging from tidal swamps at sea level to alpine conditions. In low-lying coastal areas, various species of mangroves form the main vegetation, together with the beautiful casuarina, sago, and palm. Most of the country is covered by tropical and savanna rain forest, in which valuable trees such as kwila and cedar are found. Orchids, lilies, ferns, and creepers abound in the rain forests. There are large stands of pine at elevations of 910 to 1,220 m (3,000–4,000 ft). At the highest altitudes, mosses, lichens, and other alpine flora prevail.

[[File:Auroran Jaguar 1.jpg|right|thumb|275px|The [[Wikipedia:North American jaguar|Auroran jaguar]] is the [[Wikipedia:National animal|national animal]] of Great Morstaybishlia. The Auroran jaguar's range includes all of the Jubrione National Park and several national parks in northern CaltharusKaltariezh.]]

JustelvardJusdelva comprises a much smaller land area within the MBE, yet supports nearly an equal percentage of biodiversity, and constitutes nearly 5 percent of the recognised world vertebrates; ranging from an estimated 3 percent of the world's lizards and mammals to about 8 percent of the world's fish species.

[[File:Green-billed toucan (Justelvard).jpg|left|thumb|200px|[[Wikipedia:Green-billed toucan|Green-billed toucan]], the national bird of JustelvardJusdelva found throughout the Flizon rainforest.]]

Of the native fauna to Abergwerin perhaps the most notable are the [[Wikipedia: Wild boar | Wild boars]], hunting of whom was a common manhood ritual amongst early CalthianKaltian societies. Though now days surpassed by the CalthKalt Lion in cultural importance, in the Kingdoms of Calthia and Laulia it was a common theme in crests and flags.

Another notable part of Abergwerin Fauna is the CalthKalt Puma, nicknamed [[Wikipedia: Cougar | CalthKalt lion]], which in turn is found in so many Calhtarusian symbols. The CalthKalt Puma along with black bears is often considered the apex predator of the Abergwerin area. Though other notable predators include the [[Wikipedia:Eurasian lynx | Dotted CalthKalt lion]] and the wolf. Biologists have for years advocated for years for changing the common name of the dotted CalthKalt lion, because it is based on a centuries old misunderstanding that thought it was much closer than the actual CalthKalt lion, but so far the name has stuck

The ecoregions and ecology found in the Morstia region is extremely varied as it extends from the [[Molvian Corridor]] in the south-west to the border with Tivot and Blueacia in the north-east. The region has a diverse climate that influences the inhabiting fauna; a [[Wikipedia:Humid continental climate|humid continental climate]] in the southern provinces, a [[Wikipedia:Humid subtropical climate|humid subtropical climate]] in the middle provinces of mainly Staynes but also a small area of CaltharusKaltariezh, and [[Wikipedia:Tropical wet and dry climate|tropical wet and dry climate]] in the north of Staynes and over 90 percent of the Morstia region in CaltharusKaltariezh. There are densely forested areas found in southern and central Staynes which have mostly species adapted to living in [[Wikipedia:Temperate climate|temperate climates]], while northern Staynes excluding the Jubrione region and all of CaltharusKaltariezh in this region have a fauna resembling its position in the subtropic and tropics.

Many species of mega fauna and large carnivorous mammals that lived in the Morstian savanna have been hunted for their meats, skins and ivory, and many have been pushed to extinction as a result. The [[Wikipedia:Brown bear|brown bear]] once spanned all of northern Aurora but was hunted for its fur and because it was a dangerous predator; today it lives in pockets of the Morstian region across northern Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh. Some common species in the savanna include the [[Wikipedia:Myrmecophaga tridactyla|giant anteater]], [[Wikipedia:Priodontes maximus|giant armadillo]], [[Wikipedia:Leopardus pardalis|ocelot]], [[Wikipedia:Agouti paca|spotted paca]], [[Wikipedia:Pithecia pithecia|widow monkey]], [[Wikipedia:Rupicola rupicola|cock-of-the-rock]] and [[Wikipedia:Lachesis muta muta|tango pitviper]]. Many amphibians live in wet areas, including the [[Wikipedia:Bokermannohyla saxicola|golden belly frog]] and [[Wikipedia:Oreophrynella quelchii|black bumped toad]]. [[Wikipedia:Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris|Capybara]] are also found in the savanna and is the provincial animal of Horkalo and Jubliak.

====JustelvardJusdelva====

The [[Wikipedia:Vicuña|Zycuna]] can be found living in the Zycannes plateau, the widest part of the mountain range and are similar to camelids in YasteriaCereneria and [[Gondwana]]. Few predators exist here, but those that do are the [[Wikipedia:Brown bear|brown bear]], [[Wikipedia:Andean cat|Zycannes cat]] and the [[Wikipedia:Yellow-throated marten|golden-throated marten]] - a widely distributed omnivore whose sources of food range from fruit and nectar to small deer; they also play an important role in local folklore and Zycandean culture. The nocturnal [[Wikipedia:Chinchilla|chinchillas]], two threatened members of the [[Wikipedia:Rodent|rodent]] order, inhabits the Zycannes' alpine regions and are widely domesticated. [[File:Tapirus_pinchaque_portrait.jpg|right|thumb|200px|[[Wikipedia:Mountain tapir|Mountain tapirs]] are found nowhere else on [[Urth]].]] [[File:Bullockia maldonadoi.jpg|right|thumb|150px|[[Wikipedia:Bullockia maldonadoi|''Bullockia maldonadoi''.]] is a species of endemic catfish. Found in freshwater rivers and lakes, the fish grows to about 7 centimetres (2.8 in).]] Other domestics that originates from the Zycannes region are the [[Wikipedia:Mara (mammal)|Mara]] and the [[Wikipedia:Andean mountain cavy|Zycannes mountain cavy]]. Other wild mammals found in the relatively open habitats of the high Zycannes include the [[Wikipedia:South Andean deer|Zycandean deer]] and foxes in the genus ''[[Wikipedia:South American fox|Pseudalopex]]''.

In most of the Flizon Jungle and parts of the Jubrione, there is no dry season. The Flizon has an average precipitation value of at least 60 mm (2.4 in) per month whilst the Jubrione has around 304 mm (12 in) per month. Tropical rainforests and tropical evergreen rainforests have no summer or winter; it is typically hot and wet throughout the year and rainfall is both heavy and frequent and in the Jubrione very unpredictable. One day in these climates can be very similar to the next, while the change in temperature between day and night may be larger than the average change in temperature during the year. The Jubrione is considerably temperate, between 16 °C and 22 °C or 60.8 °F and 73 °F degrees. The northern Jubrione coast is the hottest, at an average of 23 °C. The Jubrione maintains annual humidity levels of 77%. The Flizon Jungle in JustelvardJusdelva maintains an average heat of 28 °C and annual humidity levels between 78% and 80%.

The nineteen Morstaybishlian Overseas Territories are remnants of the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]]: they are [[Andomi]], Eskomia, Neptentia Islands, Detention Islands, [[Louzaria]], [[NewNevez CalthiaKaltariezh]], the [[Seligeze Islands]], [[Morstaybishlian Rotantic Territories]], [[Joralesia]], [[Rosamund Island]], [[Dalmaghar]], [[Buzela]], [[Bolize]], New Celidizia, [[Morstaybishlian West PacificCerenerian Territories]], [[Salisar]], [[Balidar]], [[Kystland]] and [[Saint Matilda]]. Collectively Morstaybishlia's overseas territories encompass an approximate land area of 828,243 square kilometers (319,786 sq mi), with a total population of 106.144 million. A 2001 MBE government white paper stated that: "[The] Overseas Territories are Morstaybishlian for as long as they wish to remain Morstaybishlian. Morstaybishlia has willingly granted independence where it has been requested; and we will continue to do so where this is an option." Self-determination is also enshrined in the constitutions of several overseas territories and three have specifically voted to remain under Morstaybishlian sovereignty (Buzela in 1996, Joralesia in 2001 and New Celidizia in 2010).

The Crown dependencies are possessions of the Crown, as opposed to overseas territories of the MBE. They comprise two independently administered jurisdictions: the [[Necraties Islands]] and [[FrorkstolmEskomia]]. By mutual agreement, the Morstaybishlian Government manages the islands' foreign affairs and defence and the MBE Parliament has the authority to legislate on their behalf. Internationally, they are regarded as "territories for which Great Morstaybishlia is responsible". The power to pass legislation affecting the islands ultimately rests with their own respective legislative assemblies, with the assent of the Crown. Since 2005 each Crown dependency has had a Lieutenant Governor as its head of government.

The Morstaybishlian parliamentary government is based on the Kalmington system that is emulated in some former colonies after 1917 and instated in 4 out of 6 nations in the [[Ethalns]] after the [[Auroran-PacificCerenerian War]]. The government is divided into two branches: an elected House of Representatives and an appointed House of Peers. All bills passed are given Royal Assent before becoming law.

The [[MBEPrinciples Conservatives|Conservativeof Democracy Party]], the [[MBEProgress LabourParty (MBE)|LabourProgress Party]] and the [[MBECivic DemocratsParty (MBE)|DemocratsCivic Party]] have, in modern times, been the MBE's three major political parties, representing the Morstaybishlian traditions of conservatism, socialism and liberalismcentrism, respectively. Most of the remaining seats were won by parties that contest elections only in one party of the MBE: JustelvardJusdelvic Unionist Party and JustelvardJusdelvic Independence Party (JustelvardJusdelva only); and the NocturnianMarislian Independence Party (NocturneMarislia only). In accordance with party policy, no elected NocturnianMarislian Independence Party members of parliament have ever attended the House of Representatives to speak on behalf of their constituents because of the requirement to take an oath of allegiance to the monarch.

In 1917, Morstaybishlia converted from absolutism to parliamentary democracy and the first mention of constituencies were made. After the Great War, Morstaybishlia's territory looked very different; [[Axdel]], and [[Emberwood Coast]] were apart of the Empire as dominions, whilst the lands east of the Ider River in CaltharusKaltariezh weren't. The Constituency Administration Committee were established to draw up the first constituency maps. The first iteration in 1917 had 1,214 constituencies and gave the Dominion of Axdel representation for the first time under the Morstaybishlian Empire with 170 seats. During the interwar period the constituencies remained unchanged until 1975 when [[Noroist Axdel]] gained independence and the land east of the Ider River came back under control of Morstaybishlia. The Constituency Administration Committee was re-established and produced a second map that overhauled most of the work from the first, producing 1,742 constituencies. This remained until the Acts of Union of Great Morstaybishlia and JustelvardJusdelva which saw 52 new constituencies added to make the final iteration of 1,794.

The history of local government in Great Morstaybishlia differs between Staynes, CaltharusKaltariezh, Valeria (Valeria before the 13th century) and JustelvardJusdelva, and the subnational divisions within these which have been called provinces have varied over time and by purpose. The province has formed the upper tier of local government over much of Great Morstaybishlia at one time or another, and has been used for a variety of other purposes, such as for Lord Lieutenants, land registration and postal delivery.

All of the 10 provinces in Staynes are based off of historic countries during the [[Staynes#Interregnum period|First Interregnum Period]]. Over Staynes' history these provinces saw major reforms in 1621, 1784 and 1897, but were reverted back to the ten provinces in 1955. The provinces in Valeria were established in 1977 based on the historic divides during the administration of the Kingdom of Valeria prior to 1256; Valeria has the most provinces of any constituent country at 27 but since 1989 there have been calls to simplify these provinces down to 22. CaltharusKaltariezh has 22 provinces which are based off of the smaller kingdoms that existed before the unification of CaltharusKaltariezh in the 8th century.

Great Morstaybishlia does not have a single legal system as the 1515 Treaty of Union provided for the continuation of CaltharusKaltariezh's separate legal system. Today the MBE has three distinct systems of law: Staynish law, CaltharusKaltariz law and Valerian law. The Supreme Court of Great Morstaybishlia came into being in 1917 to replace the Royal Courts, which had been previously used since 1036. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, including the same members as the Supreme Court, is the highest court of appeal for several independent Commonwealth countries, the [[Morstaybishlian Empire|Morstaybishlian Overseas Territories]] and the Crown Dependencies.

Both Staynish law, which applies in Staynes and JustelvardJusdelva, and Valerian law are based on common-law principles. The essence of common law is that, subject to statute, the law is developed by judges in courts, applying statute, precedent and common sense to the facts before them to give explanatory judgements of the relevant legal principles, which are reported and binding in future similar cases (''stare decisis''). The courts of Staynes and JustelvardJusdelva are headed by the Senior Courts of Staynes and JustelvardJusdelva, consisting of the Appeals Court, the Justice High Court (for civil cases) and the Royal Court (for criminal cases). The Supreme Court is the highest court in the land for both criminal and civil appeal cases in Staynes, Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva and any decision it makes is binding on every other court in the same jurisdiction, often having a persuasive effect in other jurisdictions.

In Staynes, Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva, The Court of Magistrates conduct trials. They are ranked according to the affairs and geographical area over which their jurisdiction extends. In order of least to highest, they are as follows: ward (or parish), borough (or shire), county (or district), then region (or province).

CaltharusianKaltariz law is a hybrid system based on both common-law and civil-law principles. The chief courts are the Conclave, for civil cases, and the Jurat High Court, for criminal cases. The Supreme Court of Great Morstaybishlia serves as the highest court of appeal for civil cases under CaltharusianKaltariz law. Sheriff courts deal with most civil and criminal cases including conducting criminal trials with a jury, known as sheriff solemn court, or with a sheriff and no jury, known as sheriff summary Court. The CaltharusianKaltariz legal system is unique in having three possible verdicts for a criminal trial: "guilty", "not guilty" and "not proven". Both "not guilty" and "not proven" result in an acquittal.

Each province possesses a police force under the authority of the provincial government. The national government controls law enforcement agencies that deal with particularly complex or multijurisdictional cases and provides support to province police. Some larger cities, such as [[Sani Bursil]], [[AeternumRouanezkador]] and Kirdintayos maintain their own police forces. Generally the law enforcement is disciplined and impartial. In recent years, more pressure has been put on policing in the MBE as staffing shortages have increased, which has led to breaches in security such as the [[Prince Thadeus, Duke of Horkalo#Assassination|Assassination of Prince Thadeus]]. As recently as 2016 this policing shortage has been called a national emergency.

Crime in Staynes, Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva increased in the period between 1976 and 1983, and then again between 1993 and 1997, though since that peak there has been an observed fall of 39 per cent in recorded crime from 1997 to 2007, according to crime statistics. However, as crimes have increased since 2016, the prison population of Great Morstaybishlia has increased to 2 million, giving the MBE the highest rate of incarceration in the [[Wikipedia:Southern hemisphere|southern hemisphere]] at 388 per 100,000. The Royal Prison Service (RPS), which reports to the Ministry of Justice, manages most of the prisons within metropolitan MBE, whilst the JustelvardJusdelva Prisons Committee (JPC) is independent. The murder rate in Great Morstaybishlia has increased in the second half of the 2010s with a murder rate around 3 per 100,000 which is double the peak in 2008, the highest year in that decade. Morstaybishlia's prisons are overcrowded and the prison population is increasing.

Although many nations have abolished [[Wikipedia:Capital punishment|capital punishment]], it is sanctioned in the MBE for certain civilian and military crimes, though this excludes JustelvardJusdelva. Executions are not commonplace, thought to be due to long prison sentences, good education and supplementary social welfare programs. Since 2000, there have been 159 executions. In recent years the number of executions and presence of capital punishment statute on whole has trended down nationally.

Great Morstaybishlia has an established structure of foreign relations. The MBE has a seat on the [[International Forum|International Forum Security Council]]. The MBE is a permanent member of the [[UNAC|United Nations of the Auroran Continent]], where Sani Bursil holds secondary and tertiary functions for the Auroran Parliament, Auroran Commission and Council of the UNAC. Historically, the Bank of Staynes issued the legal tender of the UNAC's predecessor, the [[Auroran Continental Assembly]]. Almost all countries have embassies in Sani Bursil or AeternumRouanezkador, and many have consulates around the country. Likewise, nearly all nations host Morstaybishlian diplomatic missions.

''The Royal Armed Forces of the Empire'' (''RAFOTE''), also known as ''His Majesty's Armed Forces'' (''HM's Armed Forces''), ''Morstaybishlian Armed Forces'' and the ''MBE Armed Forces'' form the military of the MBE and its Oversea Territories. They are made up of three branches: the Navy, Army and Air Force. The forces are managed by the Ministry of Defence and controlled by the Defence Council, chaired by the Secretary of State for Defence; currently Mikhail Sankuda. The Commander-in-Chief is the Morstaybishlian monarch, to whom members of the forces swear an oath of allegiance. The Armed Forces are charged with protecting Great Morstaybishlia and its overseas territories, promoting Great Morstaybishlia's global security interests and supporting international peacekeeping efforts. They are active and regular participants in the UNAC Defence Force. Overseas garrisons and facilities are maintained in [[Packilvania]], [[Blueacia]], [[Kuthernburg]], [[Axdel]], Mexregiona, [[Lokania]], [[South Yor|Yor]], [[Nacata]] and [[Atiland]], as well as in Overseas Territories of [[NewNevez CalthKaltariezh]], [[Louzaria]], [[Joralesia]], the Inuit Isles, [[FrorkstolmEskomia]], the [[Morstaybishlian West PacificCerenerian Territories]], [[Detention Island]], [[Rosamund Island]], [[Dalmaghar]], New Celidizia and Neptentia Island. The Morstaybishlian armed forces played a key role in establishing the Morstaybishlian Empire as the dominant world power in the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. By emerging victorious from conflicts, Morstaybishlia has often been able to decisively influence world events. Since the comedown of the Morstaybishlian Empire, Great Morstaybishlia has remained a major military power.

The railway network of Morstaybishlia, which as of 2019 stretches 265,847 kilometres (165,190 mi) is the most extensive in Aurora. The rail network was privatised between 2005 and 2009, which was followed by a rapid rise in passenger numbers following years of decline, although the factors behind this are disputed. There's 3,945 kilometers (2,451 mi) of rail network in JustelvardJusdelva and railways in JustelvardJusdelva are operated by JV Railways, a subsidiary of state-owned TrainLink. High-speed trains include the Aurostar, the BURAET and Ethaline trains, which travels at 320 km/h (199 mph) in commercial use. Since privatization in 2005 to 2009, dozens of Staynish railway companies compete in regional and local passenger transportation markets. Some 300 high-speed bullet trains connect major cities and these trains are known for their safety and punctuality. Great Morstaybishlia also has the LOOP, a hyperlink trainline that connects across Aurora and is the largest continuous train line ever built.

The Aurostar runs all across Aurora; BURAET literally means ''Bur''sil to ''Aet''ernum and connects the two capitals whilst also travelling through other major conurbations. Rail connections exist to all other neighboring countries in Aurora, except Dragonia. Intra-urban connections are also well developed with both underground services (Sani Bursil, Redrugus, Kirdintayos, AeternumRouanezkador, Lambertupol, Fort Jubrayn) and tramway services (Sani Bursil, Eskrador, Valeron, Imbazdu, Kasidura and others) complementing bus services.

There are approximately 9,265,190 kilometres (5,757,122 mi) of serviceable roadway in Morstaybishlia, ranking it the most extensive network in the world. The Sani Bursil region is enveloped with the most dense network of roads and highways that connect it with virtually all parts of the country. Morstaybishlian roads also handle substantial international traffic, connecting with cities in neighboring North Ethalria, DurentriaDrakaland, Sarentria, Tivot, Volova, Tuvaltastan, Valerica, Rosalica and Asilica. The MBE has an annual motoring taxation; however, most motorways are free to use. The new car market is dominated by domestic brands such as Audelli (18% of cars sold in Morstaybishlia in 2010), Kentora (17.5%) and Mambeck (15.2%). Over 65% of new cars sold in 2013 had diesel engines, far more than contained petrol or LPG engines.

There are 4,176 airports in Great Morstaybishlia. Fort Jubrayn Airport, located on the outskirts of Fort Jubrayn, is the largest and busiest airport in the country, handling the vast majority of popular and commercial traffic and connecting to virtually all major cities across the world. Morstaybishlian Air is the national carrier airline, although numerous private airline companies provide domestic and international travel services such as Jubrayn Airlines and Limhay Travel. Great Morstaybishlia handled a total of 1.256 billion passengers in 2018. There are twelve major ports in Great Morstaybishlia, the largest of which is in Fort Jubrayn Aeternumand Rouanezkador, which also are the second and third-largest bordering the Morstaybishlian Sea behind Tarov. 110,349 kilometres (68,567 mi) of waterways traverse Morstaybishlia including the Anker River, which connects many of the interior Staynish cities to the West Sea, and the Jubliak River which connects Sani Bursil to the Morstaybishlian Sea.

In metropolitan MBE, water and sewerage services are provided by 37 private regional water and sewerage companies and 29 mostly smaller private "water only" companies. In JustelvardJusdelva water and sewerage services are provided by a single public company, JustelvardJusdelva Water.

Great Morstaybishlia held a population census in May 2021 and recorded 515,889,582 people, making it the second most populous country in the world behind [[Packilvania]]. It has an urban population of 437,990,255 (83.90%), of which 179,576,005 (41%) is urban cities and 187,897,819 (42.9%) is urban towns. Barkoln is the most populous province, as the mean centre of Great Morstaybishlia's population has consistently shifted to the [[Sani Bursil|Cradle of Aurora]]. [[Sani Bursil]] is the most populous city, followed by AeternumRouanezkador and Kirdintayos. Great Morstaybishlia has a rural population of 83,058,222 (16.10%).

The average population density of Great Morstaybishlia is 81 people per square kilometer. On average, JustelvardJusdelva and Valeria are the densest constituent countries with 102.99 and 98.13 people per square kilometer respectively. On the other end of the spectrum CaltharusKaltariezh and Staynes are less dense with 80.61 and 69.12 people per square kilometer. The Sani Bursil metropolitan area is the densest region of the MBE with 9,859.37 people per square kilometer and the province of Jubrionas is the sparsest with 6.87 people per square kilometer. Six of the top ten largest provinces by population density are from Valeria, including Kladnes, which has a population density of 655.77 people per square kilometer and Kalidest, which has a population density of 645.46 people per square kilometer; the latter is where the capital Kirdintayos of Valeria is. JustelvardJusdelva observes the most even spread of population density by province, the densest province is Isekaiou with 534.51 people per square kilometer and the sparsest is the Western Outliers with 73.36 people per square kilometer.

JustelvardJusdelva sits on the remaining land area of the Strathepolic archipelago and it is believed that over 90% of Auroran's ancestry originate here. A large land bridge extending from west-JustelvardJusdelva to Bai Lung and then to the Staynish-CaltharusianKaltariz border became the premier travelway of the two continents after the early submerging of a land bridge from Peregrinia through the Morstaybishlian West PacificCerenerian Territories and the Oan Isles connecting to the easternmost Auroran coastline. The Strathepolic people mainly lived in and around the northern Strathepolic ridge but migrated southwards during its erosion to strong PacificCerenerian currents. A study found that Jussie genes are closely comparable of those genes thought to be pure-Morstaybishlian.

Ethnic diversity varies significantly across Great Morstaybishlia. Just over 26% (11 million) of Sani Bursil's population and 25% of Aternum's was estimated to be non-white in 2017, whereas less than 5% of the populations of western-CaltharusKaltariezh, north Valeria and central Staynes were from ethnic minorities, according to the 2017 census. In 2016, 28.8% of primary and 26.4% of secondary pupils at state schools in Staynes were members of an ethnic minority. The 1997 census was the first MBE census to have a question on ethnic group. In the 1997 MBE census 92.8% of people reported themselves as being White Morstaybishlian or White Other with 7.2% of people reporting themselves as coming from other minority groups.

Great Morstaybishlia is a highly urbanised country, with its top ten largest cities (in terms of metropolitan area population in 2021) being Bursil (17,450,424), AeternumRouanezkador (12,771,347), Celidizia (9,615,493), Kirdintayos (8,968,446), Lambertupol (6,712,896), Verhana (6,530,211), Gersega (5,632,889), Valeron (5,121,347), Redrugus (4,618,192) and Fort Jubrayn (4,568,118). Rural flight was a perennial political issue throughout most of the 20th century.

Great Morstaybishlia's de facto official language is Staynish and CalthKalt. As a first language, it is estimated that 90.7 percent of the MBE's population speak Staynish, whilst 3.5 percent speak Ethalrian, 3 percent speak CalthKalt, 0.7 percent speaks Horkalic, 0.7 percent speaks Salovian, 0.3 percent speak Axdelian and 1.1 percent speak other languages as a first language.

4 percent of the population are estimated to speak languages brought to the MBE as a result of relatively recent immigration. Cerenerian and Yasterian languages, including [[Packilvania|Packilvanian]], Wachovian, Codexian andamong Asendavianothers, are the largest grouping and are spoken by 2.5 percent of the MBE population. According to the 2017 census, [[wikipedia:Ethalrian language|Ethalrian]] is the largest non-Morstaybishlian-Auroran language spoken in Morstaybishlia and has 14.3 million speakers.

There are two recognized regional languages spoken across Great Morstaybishlia: HorkalicRombewek and JustelvardicJusdelviz. They are recognized as regional or minority languages, by the United Nations of the Auroran Continent, under the Auroran Charter for Regional or Minority Languages and the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. As it is a UNAC member state, this therefore obliges the Great Morstaybishlian government to provide them specific measures of protection and promotion.

In the 2017 Census over a forth (25.6%) of the population of the Province of Horkalo said they could speak Horkalic, an increase from the 2007 Census (23%). In addition it is estimated that about 200,000 Horkalese speakers live elsewhere in Staynes. Over 492,000 people in JustelvardJusdelva (just 3% of the population) had varying Reoa language ability, including 66% of those living on the eastern islands. The number of schoolchildren being taught through minority languages are increasing.

It is compulsory for Staynish and CaltharusianKaltariz pupils to study the Staynish and CalthKalt languages up to the age of 16 in their respective countries, whilst only Staynish is taught in Valeria and JustelvardicJusdelvic is taught with Staynish in JustelvardJusdelva. During Sixth Form is it optional to learn a foreign language, Kostuvian and Axdelian are the two most commonly taught foreign languages in Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh.

In the 2019 census 65.2 per cent of all respondents indicated that they were Thaerists, with the next largest faiths being Paxism (4 per cent), [[Akronism]] (3.2 per cent), Varism (0.6 per cent), Ulvriktru (0.3 per cent), Ademarism (0.2 per cent) and all other religions (0.3 per cent). 20.8 per cent of respondents stated that they had no religion, with a further 5.4 per cent not stating a religious preference. Vaerism holds a religious stronghold in the Nocturne province of CaltharusKaltariezh with over 87% of Morstaybishlians practicing Vaerism living there.

In Staynes, CaltharusKaltariezh and Valeria, it is compulsory for all primary and secondary schools to have a uniform, whilst in JustelvardJusdelva most schools do not have a compulsory uniform policy in place. A school uniform typically consists of a blazer in the school colours or a white shirt or blouse; a tie, trousers or skirt in a black, grey, or blue and black shoes. It could also be a shirt, sweater, and tie or a polo shirt and a sweatshirt.

Regulatory bodies are organised on a MBE-wide basis such as the General Medical Council, the Nursing and Midwifery Council and non-governmental-based, such as the Royal Colleges. However, political and operational responsibility for healthcare lies with four national executives; healthcare in Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh is the responsibility of the Morstaybishlian Government; healthcare in Valeria is the responsibility of the South Staynish Assembly, and healthcare in JustelvardJusdelva is the responsibility of the JustelvardicJusdelvic Assembly.

The culture of Great Morstaybishlia has been influenced by many factors including: the nation's Auroran status; its history as a western liberal democracy and as a superpower; as well as being a political union of four countries with each preserving elements of distinctive traditions, customs and symbolism. As a result of the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]], Morstaybishlian influence can be observed in the language, culture and legal systems of many of its former and current colonies including [[Kuthernburg]], [[Louzaria]], [[NewNevez CalthKaltariezh]], [[Axdel]], [[Joralesia]], [[Atiland]], [[Lokania]], [[Vivancantadia]], [[Rodenia]] and parts of [[East Malaysia]] and [[Nation/The Oan Isles|The Oan Isles]]. The substantial cultural influence of Great Morstaybishlia has led it to be described as a "cultural superpower". A global opinion poll for the [[MBC]] saw Great Morstaybishlia ranked the third most positively viewed nation in the world (behind [[West Cerdani]] and [[East Malaysia]]) in 2014 and 2015.

Much medieval Staynish poetry and literature were inspired by the legends of [[Pip the Gallant]] and his predecessors in the [[Staynnica|Kingdom of Staynnica]]. Other medieval poetry and literature hailing from CaltharusKaltariezh depicts the legendary Colonarius and other historical military figures.

After the printing press was introduced in CaltharusKaltariezh and later Staynes in 1475, [[wikipedia:Vernacular literature|vernacular literature]] flourished. During this period, theatrical playwrights portrayed romances, tragedies, comedies and histories became very common. Morstaybishlian literature and poetry flourished even more in the 18th and 19th centuries where things like arts, sciences, languages and philosophy were very popular as well as children's fairy tales becoming widespread. The age of reason bought with it a rational and scientific approach to religious, social, political and economic issues that promoted a secular view of the world and a general sense of progress and perfectibility. Led by the philosophers who were inspired by the discoveries of the previous century they sought to discover and to act upon universally valid principles governing humanity, nature, and society. They variously attacked spiritual and scientific authority, dogmatism, intolerance, censorship, and economic and social restraints. They considered the state the proper and rational instrument of progress. The extreme rationalism and skepticism of the age led naturally to deism and also played a part in bringing the later reaction of romanticism.

The Romantic period was one of major social change in Staynes (at the time included Valeria) and CaltharusKaltariezh, because of the depopulation of the countryside and the rapid development of overcrowded industrial cities, that took place in the period roughly between 1750 and 1850. The movement of so many people in Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh was the result of two forces: the Agricultural Revolution, that involved the Enclosure of the land, drove workers off the land, and the Industrial Revolution which provided them employment. Romanticism may be seen in part as a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, though it was also a revolt against aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment, as well a reaction against the scientific rationalization of nature.

JustelvardJusdelva deviates the most from this theme; it has a wide array of modern colonial architecture and themes of pre-colonial vernacular architecture. The houses are at the centre of a web of customs, taboos, traditional laws, social relations, myths and religions that bind communities together. Pre colonial houses would have provided the main focus for the family and its community, and is the point of departure for many activities of its residents. Villagers build their own homes, or a community will pool their resources for a structure built under the direction of a master builder or carpenter.

During the period of time loosely referred to as the Middle Ages, Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh developed their own traditions of integrating musical influence from other regions. The first record of this type of influence is in 401 CE, when Staynes (then the second Maltervenian Empire) established an orchestra in its royal court after a conquest in the Kingdom of Corstania. Influences from other Auroran cultures, as well as YasterianCerenerian, Arcturian, and other regions followed. In fact, early northern Auroran musical tradition attributes many musical instruments from this period to those regions. [[Wikipedia:Piano|Pianos]] became widely popular after its invention in Ethalria, along with more advanced trumpets, clarinets, flutes, drums, lutes, oboes and cymbals.

[[File:Morst folk band.jpg|left|thumb|250px|CaltharusianKaltariz folk band.]]

Each of the four countries of Great Morstaybishlia has its own diverse and distinctive [[Wikipedia:Folk music|folk music]] forms. Folk music has existed here since antiquity, and flourished until the era of industrialisation when it began to be replaced by new forms of popular music, including [[Wikipedia:Music hall|music hall]] and [[Wikipedia:Brass band|brass bands]]. Realisation of this led to academics and amateur scholars taking note of the musical traditions being lost, and over three waves, one in the late-19th century, one in the mid-20th century and one at the start of the 21st century; initiated various efforts to preserve the music of the people. The most notable effort involved was the collection of the texts of over three hundred [[Wikipedia:Ballads|ballads]] in the Staynish and CalthKalt traditions, by Alemin Thompson-Fisher (called the Thompson-Fisher Ballads), some of which predate the 15th century. Valerian folklore, which had been a lifeline to their pre-Morstaybishlian kingdom before the 13th century, was widely lost in the industrial revolution, though scholars and amateur scholars preserved many of the vanishing ballads and folk dance songs. Valerian folklore has a revivalist movement which began in the mid 20th century. Overall, folk music as an important sub-culture within Morstaybishlian society.

Forms of popular music, including folk music, [[Wikipedia:Jazz|jazz]], [[Wikipedia:Rapping|rapping]]/[[Wikipedia:Hip hop music|hip hop]], [[Wikipedia:Pop music|pop]] and [[Wikipedia:Rock music|rock music]], have particularly flourished in Great Morstaybishlia since the twentieth century. Morstaybishlia has had a large influence on popular music due to its size, and due to its linguistic and cultural links with many countries, particularly [[Peregrinia]] and [[Emberwood Coast]] and many of its former colonies, and its capacity for invention, innovation and fusion, which has led to the development of, or participation in, many of the major trends in popular music. In the early-20th century, influences from Peregrinia andthe [[Free PacificPax States]] became most dominant in popular music, with young performers producing their own versions of South East Yasterian[[Cereneria|Cerenerian]] music, including [[Wikipedia:Rock and roll|rock n' roll]] from the late 1950s and developing a parallel music scene. This is particularly true since the early 1960s when the Morstaybishlian Invasion, led by The Swallows, helped to secure Morst performers a major place in development of pop and rock music. Since then, rock music and popular music contributed to a Morst-SEY collaboration, with genres being exchanged and exported to one another, where they tended to be adapted and turned into new movements, only to be exported back again. Genres originating in or radically developed by Morstaybishlian musicians include [[Wikipedia:Blues rock|blues rock]], [[Wikipedia:Heavy metal music|heavy metal]], [[Wikipedia:Progressive rock|progressive rock]], [[Wikipedia:Ska|ska]], [[Wikipedia:Hard rock|hard rock]], [[Wikipedia:Punk rock|punk rock]], [[Wikipedia:Bhangra (music)|Bhangra]], Morst [[Wikipedia:Folk rock|folk rock]], [[Wikipedia:Folk punk|folk punk]], [[Wikipedia:Acid jazz|acid jazz]], [[Wikipedia:Trip hop|trip hop]], [[Wikipedia:Shoegaze|shoegaze]], [[Wikipedia:Drum and bass|drum and bass]], [[Wikipedia:Gothic rock|goth rock]], [[Wikipedia:Grime (music genre)|grime]], [[Wikipedia:Afroswing|gondoswing]], [[Wikipedia:List of industrial music genres|industrial]] and [[Wikipedia:Dubstep|dubstep]].

Morstaybishlian art refers to all forms of visual art in or associated with the country, and encompasses Staynish art, CaltharusianKaltariz art, South Staynish art and JustelvardicJusdelvic art. During the 18th century Morstaybishlia began to reclaim the leading place it had played in Auroran art during the Middle Ages, being especially strong in portraiture and landscape art. Increasing Morstaybishlian prosperity led to a greatly increased production of both fine art and the decorative arts, the latter often being exported. The Romantic period resulted from very diverse talents. The 20th century saw a great diversity of art, and a far bigger quantity created than before.

In addition to its wine tradition, Great Morstaybishlia is also a major producer of beer and whiskey. The three main Morstaybishlian brewing regions are Oglota (55% of national production), Calthia and Surbila. Morstaybishlia produces whiskey via distilleries located on islands such as Frorkstolm[[Eskomia]], the [[Morstaybishlian West Pacific Territories|West PacificCerenerian Territories]] and the [[Seligeze Islands]].

The [[MBC]], founded in 1917, is Great Morstaybishlia's publicly funded radio, television and Internet broadcasting corporation, and is the oldest and largest broadcaster in the world. It operates numerous television and radio stations in the MBE and abroad and its domestic services are funded by the television licence. Other major players in the MBE media include STV- a media conglomerate of national broadcasters and newspapers, and the CTV, who themselves dominate the media scene in CaltharusKaltariezh since the 1930s. Sani Bursil dominates the media sector in the MBE: national newspapers and television and radio are largely based there, although AeternumRouanezkador is also a significant national media centre. Kirdintayos and Valeron, and Port MakuhLoeizaporzh, are important centres of newspaper and broadcasting production in Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva respectively. The MBE publishing sector, including books, directories and databases, journals, magazines and business media, newspapers and news agencies, has a combined turnover of around £141 billion and employs around 1.1 million people.

[[wikipedia:Football|Association football]] is the most popular sport in Morstaybishlia, varieties of which have been played in Morstaybishlia as far back as Maltervenic times. It has dominated the sport scene since the late 19th century. The Staynish national football team, whose home venue is currently Camp Venna, played and beat CaltharusKaltariezh in the first ever international tournament in 1869. Through its constituent countries, Great Morstaybishlia has hosted the Men's World Cup four times; Staynes hosted it in 1952, 1968 and 1992 and CaltharusKaltariezh hosted it in 1960 and will also host the 2024 World Cup. Staynes has had the most success, winning the world cup three times in 1960, 1964 and 1992, a record that is tied with Asendavia, New Leganes and [[Masceola]]. [[File:Fitzroy Lanbard.jpg|left|thumb|230px|Fitzroy Lanbard is the head coach and manager of the Staynish national football team, since 2010.]] CaltharusKaltariezh has also won a world cup in 1968. Combined, the constituent countries of Great Morstaybishlia has placed either second or third nine times. Valeria has had limited success, placing third place twice in 1984 and 1996. Staynes, CaltharusKaltariezh, Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva usually compete as separate countries in international competitions.

At club level, CaltharusKaltariezh is recognised by the international football association as the birthplace of club football, due to Whitequeens F.C. being founded in 1852 and thus the world's oldest club. The Football Federation is the oldest governing body in the sport, where it drafted the first recognised football rules in the world in 1860. The FF Cup and The Football League were the first cup and league competitions respectively. In the modern day, the Morstaybishlian Premier League is the world's most-watched football league, most lucrative, and amongst the elite, attracting the highest average attendance of all professional sports leagues in the world.

As is the case throughout the MBE, football in Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh are notable for the rivalries between clubs and the passion of the supporters, which includes a tradition of football chants. The most successful Morstaybishlian football team in the Auroran Cup is [[Celidizia F.C.]] who have won the competition a total of eight times. They are closely followed by Redrugus F.C., who together, alongside Soutbury F.C., Koyden F.C., Abingdon F.C. and Aurus F.C., make up the most decorated clubs across the MBE.

The Oglota Wine Festival is a summer festival primarily in the Oglota Province of CaltharusKaltariezh, though it has since spread to many towns and communities in western and central CaltharusKaltariezh.

These such wine festivals across CaltharusianKaltariz communities takes place on 21 December, also [[Wikipedia:Summer solstice|Summer Celebration Day]] in Morstaybishlia. The day begins at various times in the mid to late morning, with a parade of people of all ages carrying jugs, bottles, leather wine bottles and other types of containers filled with red wine. Led by the community leader such as a mayor on horseback, the parade usually goes through the market streets of these communities, symbolising riches and good health. A mass is then celebrated at the town centre or community park, or equivalent.

On 28 April every year, many towns across CaltharusKaltariezh and Staynes observe a Tea Drinking Championship. An opponent is chosen to out drink the champion of the previous year in each town, from a large jug or from multiple tea cups. If they win, they become the champion. There are many under-card one versus one face offs that take place on a more casual setting at the same event to promote the tradition, whose origins are lost in history. The event doesn't usually last longer than half an hour.

The flag of Great Morstaybishlia is the Empire Flag. It was created in 1517 by culminating the design features from both the Flag of Staynes and the Flag of CaltharusKaltariezh. Being former colonies, Valeria and JustelvardJusdelva have no unique flag designs and have any option of redesigning the flag to represent the two other nations has been ruled out.

The [[wikipedia:Lion_(heraldry)|heraldic lion]] is quite common around the world, and several countries incorporate it into their national coats of arms. In CalthianKaltian heraldry, the lion is first found in the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Caltharus inKaltariezh the later part of the 11th century.

Public holidays celebrated in Great Morstaybishlia include a mix of religious (Thaerism), national and regional observances. Each country is allowed to declare a maximum of 13 public holidays per year; up to 11 of these are chosen by the national government and at least two are chosen locally. Morstaybishlia's national day (Unity Day) is 11 January, the anniversary of the Union of the Thrones between Staynes and CaltharusKaltariezh and celebrate [[Lambertus III|Lambertus the Great]]'s feast.
