'''Lunæria''' (or '''Lunaeria'''), officially the '''Holy Lunærian Empire,''' is a country in eastern Yasteria which occupies the southern coast of Lake Miyu. |
|||
'''Lunaeria''', formally known as the '''Holy Lunaerian Empire,''' is a sovereign state in upper [[Novaris]] which currently shares land borders with unrecognized countries. The population of 62.4 million citizens are loosely scattered amongst the country side, although the metropolitan area around the largest and capital city, Libaana, breaks this trend as it alone houses almost 13 percent of the country, or 7,892,000 citizens as determined by the 2020 estimate. Highly religious, the country was founded on state enforced Lunaecism and can be seen within the constitutional monarchy. |
|||
Lunæria is a matriarchal theocratic monarchy with limited democratic elements. The Queen of Lunæria, Evelina III, is the head of state as well as the head of Lunæcism, which is the state religion. The nation has a bicameral parliament, with the upper house composed of the Queen's advisors and (Lunæcist bishops), and the lower house composed of members elected by citizens from a pre-approved list. Only Lunæcists are granted citizenship in Lunæria. Non-adherents are considered a societal underclass, and are afforded fewer rights. |

As of 2024, it had an estimated population of 62 million people, most of whom live in rural areas. The only major urban settlement in Lunæria is its sprawling capital of Libaana, which is home to nearly a third of the nation's population. |

Long before the discovering of Lunaeria's land by lupine settlers, multiple tribes consisting of ursines were spread both within and south of what are Lunaeria's borders today. These people were well settled and maintained strong communication networks. The most prominent of which, and now used commonly as a general term for the area's natives as a whole, were the Ukkosta, which can be roughly translated to "''of thunder''" from what is thought to be a heavily modified version of Asendavian. Through what has been interpreted, the name stems from both the tribe's general presence of power among neighboring communities, having well trained defenses as well as a prosperous economy and physically, as is associated with the large, sturdy frame typical of ursines. Although there weren't an abundance of records which survived from that time, historians have gathered time frames and general information mostly from things such as well kept diaries and indicators of abandoned settlements rather than official documents. What is known currently is the native tribes many, many generations ago emigrated from what is now determined to be Asendavia. The ursines originally lived in numerous quiet, settled tribal communities primarily on what is today the island Khiyev. Various tribes of ursines had occupied it for countless centuries and were considered to be its first inhabitants. It has been noted that this sudden immigration to Novaris likely was a repercussion of the establishment of kingdoms and later formation of a country on the nearby inland. Both the thought of being ripped away from their current way of life to become part of a new country and the onset of border wars repelled many of the tribes people greatly. As such, the first wave of this large-scale move occurred around the 810's BC when the kingdoms of Tungrad, Zhelelovka, and Stromharad were first settled. These territories had only made occasional contact with of the native ursines not yet even trying to take their land and so many stayed for the time being. The second large wave of tribes migrated when the three kingdoms unified into one about 500 years later, and the last wave was forced out of the island by the 260's BC by the Asendvians forcefully seizing their land which made many choose to leave instead of fight or conform. Over the previously stated 550 year period, nearly two thirds of ursines had fled Khiyev. This was achieved largely through traveling along the island chain that branches off of eastern Asendavia, the groups then making their way to the north western tip of Novaris. Despite the fact that the close residency of foreigners drove them away, culture and information was still exchanged between the two groups. This can be represented by the integration of the Asendavian language and the beliefs of Ademarism making their way into the everyday living of a large majority of the ursine people groups regardless of which tribe they came from. Over the course of an estimated 450 years after the last major migration, the nomadic ursines traveled the northern portion of Novaris with smaller groups gradually splitting off and settling all over the region. A small but indeterminate amount of tribes made their permanent villages either inside or close to what is now modern-day Lunaeria by the year 200 AD, once again living fairly peaceful and prosperous lives. |

Lunæria (or Lunaeria), officially the Holy Lunærian Empire, is a country in eastern Yasteria which occupies the southern coast of Lake Miyu.
Lunæria is a matriarchal theocratic monarchy with limited democratic elements. The Queen of Lunæria, Evelina III, is the head of state as well as the head of Lunæcism, which is the state religion. The nation has a bicameral parliament, with the upper house composed of the Queen's advisors and (Lunæcist bishops), and the lower house composed of members elected by citizens from a pre-approved list. Only Lunæcists are granted citizenship in Lunæria. Non-adherents are considered a societal underclass, and are afforded fewer rights.
As of 2024, it had an estimated population of 62 million people, most of whom live in rural areas. The only major urban settlement in Lunæria is its sprawling capital of Libaana, which is home to nearly a third of the nation's population.
Religion
Lunæcism is the state-mandated faith of Lunæria and is inextricably tied to the functions of government.
While the clergy was once heavily involved in the day-to-day life of Lunærians, rapid population growth made such a task increasingly unfeasible for the size of the clergy. It now preoccupies itself with management on a larger scale, such as being in charge of education in the nation. Consequently, as long as Lunærians meet basic religious practices and expectations (attending religious services, regularly having children, worshiping the moon), they will be considered a Lunæcist, so long as their private practices do not attract any unwanted attention.
