'''Nagato''' ([[Gensi language|Gensi:]] ''Daikōkoku Nagato''), officially the '''Grand Duchy of Nagato''', formerly([[Gensi referred to as thelanguage|Gensi:]] '''NagatoianDaikōkoku Grand Duchy'Nagato''), is a sovereign country located in the middle of the [[Sea of Gondwana]], surrounded by the continent of [[Gondwana]]. The county shares aits only land border with the [[Orderia]] to the southeast. With an area of 474,326.31 km2 (183,138.41 sq mi), Nagato is the 11th largest country on [[Gondwana]] and the 45th largest country on Urth. As of 2020, Nagato has a population of 34,021,230, an estimated increase of 5.3% from 2010. [[Codexian]] and [[Gensi language|Gensi]] make up the majority of the languages spoken. The population is mainly Nagatoian, followed by the native [[Gensi]], and other nationalities. Nagato is one of five sovereign nations with two capitals: the administrative capital and largest city by area is Akai Machi, while the legislative capital and largest city by population is Castella.
 
 
The first civilizations of [[East Unovia Island]] and [[Unovian Tail]] were made up of small pockets of felines that dotted the coast 1.6 million years ago. Following several glacial period floodings and the eruption of [[Chargestone Caldera]], more than 96% of all life died, along with 99% of the feline population. Eventually, the feline population died out byof the ensuing volcanic winter. The early years of the 4th century BCE saw the first instance of humans from what would later be known as [[Augustia]] and [[Vessarlian]]. Between the 1st and 4th century CE, the kingdoms of East Unovia became unified under the [[Gensi Republic]] based in [[Akai Machi]],. whileIn contrast, the kingdomsrealms of Unovian Tail unified under the newly formed [[Empire of Augustia]] based in [[Kingsford]]. Beginning in the 10th century, political power for the two nations was held by a series of dictators and lords in Gensi and dukes in Augustia.
 
In 1700, the [[Kingdom of Nagato]] became a nation-state when [[Edelgard I of Augustia|Empress Edelgard of Augustia]] signed [[The Nagato Act]], creating a nation for all Nagatoians in the [[Western Unovia|WesternElissian Territory]] of Augustia]]. By 1706, Nagato overthrew the government of the Republic of Gensi from East Unovia Island and annexed the islands that made up the republic. After a 10-year civil war between resistance members of Gensi and the government of Nagato, the country reunified in 1716 under the [[Strasberg government]], which enacted an isolationist foreign policy. In 1864, a Great Morstaybishlia fleet forced Nagato to open trade to the East, which led to the end of the Strasberg government and the adoption of an Eastern-modeled constitution and pursuit of a program of industrialization and modernization.
 
In 1921, the Kingdom of Nagato established its first colony with [[Mizore]] in Southwest Gondwana after the decolonization of Tretrid in 1920. Under pressure from the global community, the Kingdom granted Mizore independence in 1936 and helped establish an oligarchy in its place.
 
In 19411940, [[Robert Kelly]] seized control of the Kingdom by overthrowing [[Noizi Tanglewood, Queen of Nagato|Queen Noizi]] and becoming Chancellor of the [[Imperial State of Nagato]] (1941–19451940–1945). Over the next four years, the Kingdom Resistance Army, reorganized as the [[Duchy of Nagato]] (1941–1945), fought the Imperial State in the Nagatoian Civil War. After the war ended with a Duchy victory, the Imperial State was annexed to create the Grand Duchy of Nagato on [[Nagato Unification Day|16 April 1945]]. Under the 1950 constitution, Nagato has maintained a unitary parliamentary semi-constitutional monarchy with a unicameral legislature, the [[National Council (Nagato)|National Council]].
 
Nagato is a regional power in Gondwana, a middle power in international affairs, and an emerging global power. Nagato's economy is the fourth largest in Gondwana, the 25th-largest in the world by nominal GDP, and the 25th-largest by PPP. Nagato is called the Heart of Gondwana owing to its large population and economy. It is a founding member of the [[IRSA|InterIntercontinental Regional Security Accords]], [[Council of Gondwana]], [[Commonwealth of Unovian Nations|Unovian Commonwealth]], and is a permanent member of the [[International Forum]]. Nagato ranks high in international measures of economic freedom, quality of life, education, human rights, and universal health care while also having low levels of corruption.
 
==Etymology==
{{Main|Names of Nagato}}
 
The name Nagato first came from Augustians who lived in the [[Western Unovia|WesternElissian Territory]] of Augustia]] (present-day eastern Nagato). Many saw it as their right to claim the Unovian Tail from [[Augustia]] and felt the Augustian Government was holding them back. By 1625, several high-ranking leaders in the territory started calling themselves “Nags”, shorthand for “Non-Augustians”,Augustians.” andThey used it as a way to rally all the citizens to the cause for autonomy. Many officials in the Augustian Government used the term “Nags” to separate them from the rest of the Augustian population on census reports and official documents.
 
In 1698, [[Ionius II of Augustia|King Ionius II]] of House Hresvelg of Augustia died, leaving the throne to his oldest daughter, [[Edelgard I of Augustia|Edelgard]]. Edelgard, unlike her father, saw the Nags plight for autonomy as one of her father’s weaknesses. In her 10-Year-Planyear plann, Edelgard laid out her plan to give up the WesternElissian Territory of Augustia to the Nags. In exchange, they would keep all seaports free for all Augustian ships. [[The Nagato Act]] would create a nation for all Nags, who at this point became known as Nagatoians. The act was finalized and was signed into law on 1 June 1700 creating the [[Kingdom of Nagato]].
 
==History==
Line 151 ⟶ 155:
{{Main|Prehistory of Nagato}}
 
The oldest traces of life in what is now Nagato date back approximately 1.6twenty-seven millionthousand years ago with early felines. Over the ensuing millennia, felines were confronted by a harsh and variable climate, marked by several glacial periods. Early felines led a nomadic hunter-gatherer life. Nagato has a large number of decorated caves from the mid-Stone Age, including one of the most famous and best-preserved, [[Yamoto Caves]] (approximately 23,000 BCE). During the last glacial period (approximately 19,650 BCE), [[Chargestone Caldera|Chargestone Supervolcano]] erupted with a Volcanic Explosivity Index of 8. The eruption was so devastating that it blocked the sun worldwide for almost a decade and possibly a 1,000-year-long cooling episode. This led to 95.7% of all life on [[Gondwana]] dying and acted as a “soft reset” for the continent.
 
In mid-18,000 BCE, humans began to arrive in Nagato from what would later be known as [[Augustia]] and [[Vessarlian]]. This migration is thought to have happened due to other species invading or searching for warmer water. Since there wasn’t a dominant species in Nagato, human settlement began without any conflict from outside sources.

=====Fall of the Kingdom=====
 
By 19411940, the Kingdom of Nagato was collapsing. Queen Noizi’s power was limited by Prime Minister [[Robert Kelly]] after the passing of the [[Emergency Powers Act]], which allowed Kelly to remain Prime Minister long after the expiration of his elected terms. Queen Noizi, knowing her time was limited, sent her three children to [[Augustia]], where they will be safe with the Augustian King and his family. Unbeknownst to the Queen, Kelly developed a plan to overthrow the monarch and establish himself as the Dictator of Nagato. With a victory in sight, he declared himself the leader of the newly formed [[Nagatoian Socialist Workers' Party|New Order (party)]].
 
On 19 September 19411940, Queen Noizi and her staff met with Kelly and his allies to discuss the future of Nagato at Parliament. Although it was closed door, the meeting only lasted ten minutes. Sources have said that Kelly demanded that she step down as Queen and for himself to become the leader of Nagato. Having none of it, the Queen came up with an alternative: Kelly would stay as Prime Minister for life, and she would stay in power, but only as a figurehead. Kelly huddled around his group. Within a minute, they stood up, pushed in their chair, and collectively said, “No.” They then proceeded to leave the room. Astonished, Queen Noizi had a sinking feeling that their meeting was the last time they would see them peacefully.
 
When she returned to the Royal Palace, Queen Noizi started to pack whatever she could to escape [[Castella]]. Day turned into night fast. As she left her room, an attendant came to the door and told her the worst news she had ever heard: The New Order is marching towards the palace.

Several hours before, Kelly and his allies and supporters discussed what to do next in the east wing of the Parliament building. With many high-ranking military figures on his side, they discussed the ultimate plan: Overthrow the Monarch. Equipped with [[Wikipedia:Type 99 rifle|rifles]] and [[Wikipedia:Type 30 bayonet|bayonets]], Kelly led his allies and supporters through the streets of Castella towards the Queen’s Residence, urging anyone not happy with the Queen to join the rebelling.

[[File:Beef_Teriyaki_with_Udon_Noodles.jpg|right|thumb|125px|Steak Udon, a staple of Nagatoian cuisine]]
Rice and noodles have been a staple for hundreds of years. Many dishes are a combination of meat and either rice or noodles. Steak Udon is a popular dish as both ingredients are stir-fried together with a broth or a paste. Another popular dish is rice bowls, generally accompanied by tuna or, beef, along with lotsand ofmany vegetables.
 
Beef is often enjoyed more in eastern Nagato as seafood is hard to come by and livestock is very plentiful. Most dishes consist of a cut of meat along with starch (typically potatoes) and a type of bread. This meal structure is typical of the Unovia Region and differs from Eastern and Southern Gondwana meal structures, though it still often consists of breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Late-morning and mid-afternoon snacks are also usually included in this meal structure.
Line 899 ⟶ 903:
 
The national anthem of Nagato is ''[[Together]]'' by [[Fumie Akiyoshi]], translated by Hiltonium and Fé van Kessel. The anthem was originally a [[Gensi]] fight song by Fumie Akiyoshi in 1942 and was used as the unofficial anthem of the Duchy of Nagato. Mentions of Mount Coronet, rock climbing, and multi-battle victories can be heard throughout the song and a line about Nagato’s ever-growing list of battles it has been in.
