Meradia, officially known as the People's Kingdom of Meradia, is a small, newly formed South American nation. It was built on mostly barren land, much of which has now been converted into urban development or arable land.
History[]
The region that is now Meradia was originally inhabited by a native tribe. During the 1500s, a Spanish exploration ship was forced to take harbour in a small bay due to heavy rains. Despite the poor conditions of the land, a colony was established to serve as a checkpoint for trade vessels. It quickly became a popular destination for the workers on these ships, likely due to the liberal nature of the women. The Marquis of Cañete once called it "a wonderful place to stop, enjoy a good meal and have a whore or two."
The region remained a small mostly-Spanish colony for several hundred years until 1979, when disagreements among the people escalated to armed conflict. During this period, a small group of soldiers and scholars led by Zephinicus established a loosely organized government. It was at first a Democracy, but Zephinicus soon became annoyed with the long decision-making process, and declared himself King Zephinicus I of Meradia.
Geography[]
Yferopolis is located on the Valdes Peninsula, though the country itself extends into the mainland.
