Vistaraland, officially known as the Imperial Vistari Conderation is a confederation of Duchies and Dominions spanning a majority of the former territories of the Vistari Empire.

History

Oudithus Era

The Vistari People originated from Eastern Concord, made up of seafaring tribes such as the Oserene and Helban. (Origins of the names of Aisera and Haliban respectively) These ancestors of the Vistari believed the world to be a great Cresent surrounded by an infinite sea. They called this Crescent "Kromme Imposant", or Curve of Imposing. This belief still influences the Vistari view of the world today, with Krommosant being the Vistari word to describe Yasteria and Arcturia as a single continent.

Nieuwthuis Era

In around 200 BC, the Vistari People migrated to the isle of Krommentrum. (Named after the Vistari words for Curve and Centre) The reason for such a mass exodus from Concord is a hotly debated subject, but it is known the Vistari settled first near the modern day region of Korsland, expanding and displacing the native Elven Population. This eventually led to the growth of settlements along the West Coast and the Vistara River.

Age of Industry

K'undzeti Purchase

During the 1840s, interest in ambitions of expanding to better reach Auroran markets became common amongst wealthy members of the Vistari Colonial Company. One of these men, Claes Elrickzoon, Baron of Fiskrat and a minor member of the House of Nyvera, saw opportunity in the recovering Grand Republic of Salovia. He met with the Salovian Commerce Advisor - Iakob Gerilishvili - and purchased the island of K'undzeti and the Isles of Peper from Salovia for a sum of 44 Million Gildsmark ($587 million in 2020 SHD), with the treaty signed on the 14th March 1841, with the K'undzeti Purchase ratified on the 20th of the same month, forming the Vistari West Pacific Colonies.

Nuclear Era

First Nuclear Test

The first nuclear test performed by Vistaraland, called the AV-1, was a 73 kt atmospheric test in Leoland, Chibilaba. The success of this test ensured Vistaraland's place amongst the nuclear powers, with the Imperial Confederation currently in ownership of ~300 warheads.

Violet Restoration War

As part of the Violet Front, Vistaraland sent forces to Atlae in support of the Monarchist Forces there. The Vistari Imperial Navy provided support for the Norgsveltian Navy throughout the war, as well as an expeditionary force sent to Concord under the leadership of Wilhelm Brokke.

Joining OFAC

With Vistaraland's history of colonialism within Arcturia, it was decided to allow the nation to serve as a permeant invitee to the Organisation For Arcturian Cooperation on the 4th April, 1965. As a part of OFAC, Vistaraland gained economic ties across the continent of Arcturia through the Dominions of Valerijk. This eventually led to the Valrijkan-Arcturian Diplomacy Treaty in 1984, seeing Valerijk join as a full member of OFAC.

Recent History

December Missions

The December Missions were a string of diplomatic missions made by Prince Hendrik, Duke of Korsland and Adelbert, Count of Adelisia on behalf of the Empress to ensure support for the new Constitution, with the most notable nations endorsing it being Norgsveldet, Acronis and Asendavia, with the missions being an undoubted success.]]

Territories of the Confederation

Kingdom of Vistaraland

Hosting the Imperial Capital of Vierbak, the Kingdom of Vistaraland stands as the heartland of the Confederation. Made up of 16 Duchies - including one Archduchy and six Grand Duchies - on the island of Kromentrum, as well as the Duchy of Kopmaseiland on the island the bears the same name. The Kingdom of Vistaraland is located entirely in Western Yasteria, sharing borders with the Western Provinces and the two Suvanias, as well as a close sea border with the Imperial Republic in the Sea of Alva. It boasts a large population of 70,539,456 and GDP per Capita of $36,524.91, making an impressive GDP of 2.57 trillion SHD, dwarfing the other four constituent entitles that make up the Confederation. While being the homeland of the modern Vistarian Language, it hosts a minority of Noorvic Speakers in the North, seeing a cultural mix of Ulvrikian and Vistarian culture in the region.
