The Grand Republic of Lovelia, commonly known as Lovelia, is a nation that exists on the continent Aurora that has a border with Tarelia, Volova, Great Morstaybishlia, Nolova, Thalria, Faethalria, Nilovia, and exists directly north of the island nation of Dragonia. The nation, with a Nominal GDP per capita of $27,643, has an estimated population of 27,802,894 as of 2020. Lovelia encompasses the three southernmost major Auroran Lakes, those being Slovi Lake, Orts'ilovi Lake, and the northern half of Lake Nilovi, in order from west to east. The nation follows the southern coast of the continent, with Nilovia splitting the coasts into two sections: The East Coast and The South Coast. Lovelia also has dominion over a number of islands, those being divided amongst the subdivisions of The East Crescent Isles, Avutili, The Far East Isles, Absurdvani, and Kemeshovi. The largest city Shagonar holds an estimated 4,627,134 individuals and the capital Akhalibisi holds another 3,122,776. Shagonar and the fifth largest city Kar'topi are both part of the Shagonar-Chilekani-Kar'topi Area (often referred to as Shachika), and hold a population of nearly 11 million people. The center of the nation, namely the Akhlos P’reria and Shoreuli P’reria provinces, make up the majority of croplands within the country, making up __% of the nation's total consumption.

Lovelia is one of a number of nations once part of the former nation of Salovia, and that distinction has greatly affected its role on the world stage since the nation's founding in 2005. After the Salovian Civil War ended, the Treaty of Astravili officially established Lovelia, Biramura, and the former nation of Kostromastan. Unlike its counterparts, Lovelia is widely considered to be the spiritual and political successor to Salovia, as it is the largest in terms of land area, military strength, and GDP, and has the former Salovian capital Akhalibisi as its own capital. This de facto succession placed the former Salovian colony Komertsiya Port (located in Gondwana) under its de facto jurisdiction from 2005 until 2010, then official jurisdiction from 2010 to the 2020 Komertsiya Handover Ceremony, in which the city was returned to Ayaupia after 180 years of Salovian and Lovelian rule. Lovelia has replaced Salovia in a number of international organizations, including the EPTO, the Cooperative for East Auroran Nations, and the International Forum among others. Unlike Salovia, Lovelia is a member of the UNAC, and has been a member since its founding in 2017.

The War for Mortanap'iro (2009-2010)

This war was between Lovelia and Kostromastan, and lasted 11 months before ending on a peace treaty that ended the war. It was catalyzed by many skirmishes between Kostro and Lovelian civilians along the northern portion of Lovelia and the eastern corner of Kostromastan, and eventually politicians in Lovelia called for a war to settle the border dispute. The Hall approved of the war, and the war killed approximately 12,000 Lovelians and 11,000 Kostros. The war also resulted in Lovelia keeping its border with Tarelia, and leaving Kostromastan landlocked.

The war drew resources away from the already-secessionist region of Tarelia, resulting in the region declaring its independence in 2010, shortly before the end of the war.

Occupation and Integration of Avutili (2012-2016)

In an effort to re-assert control over the southwestern Pacific region, the Lovelian military began efforts to regain control over the former Salovian region of Avutili, under control of the fledgling Kingdom of Avutili at the time. The military of Lovelia was officially given approval by the Zedakhli to begin operations in early 2013. Much of the world condemned Lovelia's actions, calling the invasion a blatant violation of the self-determination of the Avut people. The natives of the island utilized guerrilla war tactics against the Lovelian military, who had never stepped foot on the Avut Island. The native Avuti had been successful at keeping the Lovelian Government in the northern half of the island, until December 3rd, 2016, when reinforcements moved to the island from the south and began surrounding the natives, eventually capturing the entire archipelago for Lovelia. A few weeks later, the Lovelian government also moved towards the two other former Salovian archipelagos, The East Crescent Isles and the Far East Isles. The Far East Isles are the habitat of the white-tailed Dragonhawk, an endangered subspecies of the Dragonhawk. As such, the general Lovelian public called for the islands to be converted into a nature reserve. In response, the Lovelian government enacted a bill to create the Far East National Park and Nature Reserve.

Plans have been in place to turn the Crescent Isles into a commercial and business hub, and for the southernmost island of the Avut Isles into a military facility. After being integrated into Lovelian society, the native Avuts have been protesting, calling for more rights to their land. A bill was put through the Chamber to determine whether the Avuts should be given a reservation on April 2nd, 2017, and the Chamber voted 39-6 to allow for the largest island in the Avut Archipelago to be converted into the Avutili Autonomous Domain.

Foreign Policy

The Asilican embassy in Lovelia is renowned for is uncommonly large clock, often touted as the "largest embassy clock on Urth!" This claim is refuted by the Lovelian embassy in Vistaraland, who also operates a large clock atop their building.

Economy

Currency

Since its inception, Lovelia, along with many other UNAC members, uses the Kirib, which is one of the most-traded currencies. Initially a Morstaybishlian-specific currency, the Auroran Continental Assembly, the predeccesor to the UNAC, established the currency as organization-wide, and has since been adopted globally, rivalling the South Hills Dollar in influence and stability thanks to its unique financial management as independent from any political influence.
