Vivancantadia (Enchanta: Bibankantadya) or officially known as the Technocratic Monarchy of Vivancantadia (Enchanta: Teknokratikong Monarkiya ng Bibankantadya) is a mountainous country deliminated by Musicanacht Mountain Range in the east and Jongsuk Mountain Range in the south. Vivancantadia is located in Southern-most Arcturia. An Absolute Technocratic Monarchy with its capital in Ibrahim, shares a land border with South Peragen in the north,Lokania in the north-east and Louzaria in the east on which is a part of Great Morstaybishlia.
Due to its geographic location in Arcturia, Viivancantadia has historically been home to myriad peoples and cultures. In addition to the various ancient peoples dispersed throughout what is now modern-day Vivancantadia, the most predominant being the Vivancantadians who gave its name and lead Vivancantadia into its golden ages and up until now, the Vivancantadians lives delightfully in its mountainous, rocky yet, their home.
Vivancantadia is an Absolute Technocratic Monarchy with a two-House parliament system. The current monarchs are Gian I and Andrew I, who has reigned since 1999 and the heir apparent is Dexter I. The capital is Ibrahim, a global city and financial center with an urban area population of 3.5 million in 2019, one the largest in Arcturia. Other major urban areas in Vivancantadia include Delcano, Bautista, Montes, Pelino, Magdalita, and New Simpshire.
Vivancantadian relationships to most of the nations in Urth are mostly ranging from neutral and friendly since the old times, but mostly have close ties with the Southern Arcturian Nations such as South Peragen, New Leganes, Osterlicsh, Lokania, Louzaria, Sokala and a heavily close tie to its colonizer in the East, Great Morstaybishlia.
Name
In the past years, historians have looked throughout old history books pertaining about Vivancantadia and such, as well in Morstaybishlian and Impelanzan books, and have narrowed down to two, Vivancantadia means The Land of Delightful Living but it was speculated that it was derived from the Impelanzan words Vivir which means "to live" and Encantado which means Delighted or Enchanted which was used in times where Vivancantadia was influenced by Impelanza. The other one is derived from the Ancient Enchanta words Vivana which means Full of life, Alive or Vibrant. while Cantadia means "Land that is Sung" or in other words the land that is always in a song.
History
Prehistoric and Antiquity Period
Kormastazic Period
Late Middle Ages to Early Renaissance
The start of the 14th Century was a normal start of the century for the four kingdoms of Vivancantadia, until at the late 14th century, Tadiera launched an ambush on the Vivanish Royalty traveling near on the Jongsuk Mountain Range in which showed a sign of aggression against Vivania. On the other hand, Vivania was preparing an invasion against Canteria in which Ianlesia informed Canteria and immediately started preparing their forces for an upcoming war but Tadiera seems suspicious of these moves and did not trust them at all. These sparked the first War of Unification between the combined forces of Canteria and Ianlesia versus Vivania versus Tadiera which also attacked Ianlesia causing a chaotic multifront war that lasted from 1469 - 1475 and only ended due to the exhaustion of troops and the harsh climate in which resorted into high casualties on all sides.
The war sought its end in 1475 when Vivanish troops were tired of doing failed sieges in all sides due to the geographical location of the mountains which serves as a natural fort for the 3 other kingdoms and failing to protect their lands behind those mountains which heavily affected the Vivanish kingdom which lead into a peace treaty with the other kingdoms. Canteria's trade routes are heavily disrupted by the Vivanish and are slowly crumbling to its economic downfall. Tadiera losing a lot of troops defending their homeland which sought a high decrease in the workforce and the value of slaves increased, even forcing the soldiers to do work while they are not in their services. While Ianlesia is the only one who benefited from this situation as they only had a low casualty and gained a large portion of land fromm the unprotected Vivanish lands behind the Jongsuk Mountain Range and a bit of Tadieran land to at least help them getting economically stable even though the were attacked by the Tadierans. King Egdzfi III who was ruling Ianlesia at that time was seen by the Tadierans and Ianlesians as the King of Sainthood due to his proper ruling and mercy towards to people which earned a lot of loyalty from its people, further closing the gap between Ianlesia and Vivania in the Four Kingdom Tensions.

Morstaybishilian Empire Colony
During the Western Auroran Crusades around in the early 16th century, the Kormistazic Empire fled to its colonies rather than surrendering as a last resort against the Morstaybishlian Empire. The Morstaybishlian Empire, led by King Redrugus V eventually conquered the Kormistazic strongholds in Arcturia and claimed the Kormistazic ports as their own. From the late 1500s to the early 1600s Morstaybishlia established seven other trade outposts to bolster its overseas economy. In which includes the Vivanish Port Towns.
In 1628 Morstaybishlia began a campaign to push further into Arcturia to unite the port towns and claim more land for agriculture. The Vivanish resisted the expansion of the Morstaybishlian settlement which began the First Morsto-Vivanan War. After one year the Vivanish people retreated further inland to the Delcanian mountains. The last stand of the Vivanish people, the 60-day Siege of New Simpshire led by the cultists of the Owls of Jupiter before finally falling in the hands of its colonizers. After this last stand which resulted in the loss of the cult and the Vivanish people, Florence I then signed the Finalem Charter which saw Morstaybishlia’s first unified territories as Vivania in 1631.
As the other Kingdoms saw this as a threat and a sudden increase of war refugees, they decided to peacefully surrender and be colonized, It was said that Vivana is strongest of them all four kingdoms, and being seen beaten by colonizers is a scary thing for them. The following four kingdoms surrendered in order; Tadiera(1635), Canteria(1639) and Ianlesia(1644)

Vivancantadian & Technocratic Monarchy
Geography
Extending across the north and south side of the Jongsuk and Musicanacht in the Northern and Southern parts, Vivancantadia encompasses a great diversity of landscapes and climates on a limited area of around only 36% of the total land. With a population of 19 Million, resulting in an average population density of around 79 people per square kilometer (500/sq mi).
Vivancantadia lies between latitudes 20° and 27° S, and longitudes 21° and [[wikipedia:26th parallel east|26° E.]. It contains three basic topographical areas: the Rumurin Islands to the west, the Vivancantadian Plateau which is divided into Western and Eastern plateau, and the Musicanacht mountains on the east. The Jongsuk is a high mountain range running across the north central-south central of the country, constituting about 60% of the country's total area. The majority of the Vivancantadian population lives in the Vivancantadian Plateau. Among the high valleys of the Vivancantadian Jongsuk, many glaciers are found, totaling an area of around 40% of the nation's land area. From these originate the headwaters of several major rivers, such as Lieate, Hedga, Triousa, and Bhone, which flow in the four cardinal directions into the center of the nation. The hydrographic network includes several of the largest bodies of freshwater in Central and Western Europe, among which are included Lake Affiato, Lake Ronditta, and Lake Maccapina. Vivancantadia has 350 small lakes. The largest lake is Lake Affiato.
Forty-eight of Vivancantadia's mountains are 4,000 meters (13,000 ft) above sea in altitude or higher.[56] At 4,634 m (15,203 ft), Monte Sammy is the highest, although the Hattermorn (4,478 m or 14,692 ft) is often regarded as the most famous. Both are located within the Fehdine Jongsuk in the state of Graus, on the border of South Peragen. The section of the Gherinese Jongsuk above the deep glacial LSmoldenn valley, containing 61 waterfalls, is well known for the Jungfrau (4,158 m or 13,642 ft) Eiger and Mönch, and the many picturesque valleys in the region. In the southeast the long Nidange Valley, encompassing the Delcano area in the state of Sequireo, is also well known; the highest peak in the neighboring Gherina Jongsuk is Ala Dylan (4,049 m or 13,284 ft).
The more populous northern part of the country, constituting about 30% of the country's total area, is called the Vivancantadian Plateau. It has greater open and hilly landscapes, partly forested, partly open pastures, usually with grazing herds, or vegetables and fruit fields, but it is still hilly. There are large lakes found here and the biggest Vivancantadian cities are in this area of the country.
Waters
Two different oceans surround the Vivancantadian landmasses in the Arcturia from two sides: the Concordian Ocean in the east, and Packilvanian Ocean in the west.
Most of the rivers of Vivancantadia drain either into the Concordian Ocean, such as the Springmeuse, Piattati, Ueteas, Tartle, Arhkala, and Sweadce, or into the Packilvanian, like the Turquoise Brook(Turtle Brook Internationally), Ribbens, and Balbadina. The waters from the Lago di Iodibhaer in Graus drain into the South Peragenian Sea through the basin of the Of Palapatineiazer.
In the north of the country are a number of subalpine moraine-dammed lakes, the largest of which is Blanca Aveson (370 km2 or 143 sq mi). Other well-known subalpine lakes are Lake Cremada Brexita (212.5 km2 or 82 sq mi), whose most northerly section is part of Lokanis, Frizania a la Vrexii (146 km2 or 56 sq mi), one of the deepest lakes in Arcturia. Eebhey, Hebbehine, Muertea, and Tangea. Other notable lakes in Vivancantadia are Dinglino, Stevensario, Andreitista, Jackstillio, Nesontes, and Dexcano in Vilelcano Omodeo in Ansemil.
Volcanology
The country is situated at the meeting point of the Arcturian Plate and the Auroran Plate, leading to considerable seismic and volcanic activity. There are 14 volcanoes in Vivancantadia, four of which are active: Atnae, Dan Tou, Rastiabian, and Reimiata. Several islands and hills have been created by volcanic activity, and there is still a large active caldera, the Kampo Eurikane north-west of Ansemil.
The high volcanic and magmatic neogenic activity is subdivided into provinces:
- Magmatic Sequiero (Monte Quesadana, Rolgha and Tastiabian);
- Magmatic Pedernales (Monte Garazone, Lissio nel Urtane, Cillo Ayaupani, Maranganzello);
- Ultra-alkaline Zollean Secano District (San Defensor, Modepaello and Ermitaa);
- Volcanic bell (Reimiata, Kampo Eurikane, Areheag);
- Windy arch and Arlucea basin (Viescas Islands and Lozaresian seamounts)
- Peragenian-Vivancantadian Graus (Channel of Cueras, Leobalde Island, Atnae, and Mount Erutluv).
Vivancantadia was one of the first countries to exploit geothermal energy to produce electricity. The high geothermal gradient that forms part of the peninsula makes potentially exploitable also other provinces: research carried out in the 1960s and 1970s identifies potential geothermal fields in Jarte and Sequiero, as well as in most volcanic islands.
Environment
After its quick industrial overgrowth, Vivancantadia had a hard time confronting its environmental problems, but after some several improvements and laws, it has been restored to at least it's former glory with an astounding 5% of the nation's GDP is entirely spent on its environment. National Parks covers about 7% of the nation with most of it is entirely filled with mountains to protect its beauty and as well as the animals leaving near it. Vivancantadia is also a large user of Renewable Energy to prevent its environment from decaying. with Solar Energy and Wind Energy almost powering up the nation with almost 21% of the total and final energy consumption in Vivancantadia with a target share set of 25% on the year of 2030. It lives on an eco-friendly nation, however, air pollution still remains a critical problem, especially in the industrialized north-west.
Biodiversity
Vivancantadia has the highest level of faunal biodiversity in Arcturia, with over 47,000 species recorded, representing more than a third of all Arcturian fauna. Vivancantadia's varied geological structure contributes to its high climate and habitat diversity. Vivancantadia also receives species from the South Peragen, Lokania, Louzaria, and Great Morstaybishlia. Vivancantadia's varied geological structure, including the Musicanacht and the Jongsuk Mountain Ranges, Northwestern Vivancantadian woodlands, and Southern Vivancantadian and Magdalita shrubland, also contributes to high climate and habitat diversity.
Vivancantadian fauna includes 3,696 endemic animal species, which include the Ricaldean long-eared bat, Gierzan red deer, spectacled salamander, brown cave salamander, Vivancantadian newt, Vivancantadian frog, Ricaldean yellow-bellied toad, madulidean wall lizard, Gierzan wall lizard, Vivancantadian Aesculapian snake, and Malabanan pond turtle. There are 92 mammals species (most notably the Vivancantadian wolf, Delcanian brown bear, Narez chamois, Musicanachtian ibex, crested porcupine, Vivancantadian monk seal, Moreiandellian marmot, Magdalita shrew, and Arcturian snow vole), 429 bird species and 52,239 invertebrate species.
Climate
According to the Köppen climate classification, Vivancantadia is mostly a mixture of humid continental climate (Dfa-Dfb) on the Middle-Western section and (Dwa-Dwb) on the eastern part which explain the coldest regions of Vivancantadia and humid subtropical (Cwa, Cfa-Cfb) climate which features Temperate summers with no dry seasons and either a warm summer or hot summer, and if its a dry winter, then a hot summer. It is also believed that the mountains also affect the nation's precipitation in some sort, as the nation with the highest faunal biodiversity, many laws are ordered to forbid citizens and tourist from damaging natural habitats and the environment as well as the illegal capturing of animals especially the rare and endangered animals, with eco-tourism being highly encouraged by the government to keep the nation's natural beauty. Though the nation doesn't have white sandy beaches, instead, they offer frozen rivers and lakes to skate on, high frozen mountains that give you a thrilling challenge to climb on with good winter and a one-of-a-lifetime view of the nation's most famous natural sceneries everywhere.
