The Grand Duchy of Nagato, commonly known as Nagato, is a sovereign country located on New Genesis Island surrounded by the Sea of Gondwana on Urth.
With an area of 313,787 km2 (121,154 sq mi), Nagato is the 15th largest country on Gondwana and the 89th largest country on Urth. In 2019, Nagato had a population of 15,021,225, an estimated increase of 1.04% from 2018. With Nagatoian Codexian and Staynish making up the majority of the language spoken, the natives instead speak Genesi. In Nagato, the population is mainly Nagatoian, followed by the native Genesi people, East Nagatoians, Celans/Celanas, and other nationalities. The capital of Nagato is Greenwood, while Portland is the largest city.
The history of Nagato is considered to begin in 1900, when the Kingdom of Nagato was founded. However, nowadays, it is considered to be when the first Nagatoians reached New Genesis Island in 1942. Prior to 1942, the Genesi people lived in harmony with one another.
The first Grand Duke, Kyon I (John Smith I; born 15 August 1901 - 25 December 1964) was born in the Yuki Providence of the Kingdom of Nagato.
In 2001, current day leader, Kyon II, was born and ascended to the throne on his 18th birthday in 2019.
In 1980, the nation voted on a referendum to change the name from West Nagato to Nagato to reflect the current status of the world.
History
Indigenous peoples and pre-Nagatoian history
Not much is known about New Genesis Island before 1700, however, the island gets its name from the Genesi natives. Some sources have put the date when they settled sometime in the mid-10th century. Others have said after 1700. The Genesi are told that they have lived on the island ever since the beginning of time. We now know this is false, but no one knows when they first settled.
The Genesi were very adventurous during the 1700’s and into the mid-1800’s They visited many places around the Sea of Gondwana. They brought back books, instruments, new elements like Iron and Oil, and tons of food. It is said that the Gensi people started their Industrial Revolution in 1745 with the introduction of the first wind turbine in Portland, the first true city, to help with harvesting crops.
Sometime during the mid-1800, two natives were digging into a cave south of current day Portland when they noticed a shiny mineral in the cave wall. They told the top scientist at the time, We-Ne Le, about what they found. To Le’s surprise, it was Silicon. Le ordered a full recovery of all Silicon and whatever they might find in that cave. While in the cave, Lithium was found alongside many precious metals like Diamonds and Emeralds. The Genesi would later use these new found elements and metals to boost the economy for many decades to come. By the time the first Nagatoians first set foot on the island in 1942, the New Genesis economy was growing rapidly.

Islands
Nagato is made up of 15 islands, the largest and most populated is New Genesis Island. The newest, Thomas Island, is the smallest and least populated island in the Genesis Arcipelago.
Geography
Geology
New Genesis Island was created in 1700 after a tsunami flooded the land that connected New Genesis to Genesis Island (now called Celannica Island) in the west. The Genesi islands were formed by volcanic activity initiated at an undersea magma source called the Genesi hotspot. The process is continuing to build islands; the tectonic plate beneath much of the Genesis Sea continually moves southwest and the hot spot remains stationary, slowly creating new volcanoes. The newest island, Thomas Island, is located northeast of the coast of New Genesis Island.
Climate
According to the Köppen climate classification, most of Nagato has a temperate oceanic climate (or Do type), which features warm summers, and wet winters with frequent overcast and cloudy skies. Many laws strictly forbid damaging natural habitats, keeping most beaches in the country's natural state, all the while attracting many tourists. Eco-tourism is highly encouraged by the government, with most hotels opting for a healthy mix of nature and enjoyment of their guests.
