'''Tierrador''', officially the '''Tierradorian Woqalate''', is a semi-constitutional monarchy primarily located in Southeastern [[Crona]], along with a [[Saukhin Islands|chain of islands in the Polynesian Sea]], and multiple small overseas island possessions. The country's mainland is bordered to the south by [[Ceylonia]]; to the south and west by the [[Orixtal Sea]]; to the north by [[Istrenya]] and the Songun Sea; and to the west by [[Asteria]]. Tierrador's capital is [[Taisgol]], the largest city along with being a major commercial and cultural center; other major [[wikipedia:Urban Area|urban areas]] include Qabór, Prisamarina, Sačia, [[Ambaqwe]], Porvaos, Hugo, Topaqoí, Tuwaheekee, and San Cristóbal. Tierrador is a member of the [[League of Nations]], the [[Cronan Commonwealth Development Organization|CCDO]], and the [[Multilateral Coöperation Council|MCC]]. It is considered a regional power within the Cronan continent, due to its strategic location and very powerful economy.

Tierrador is a {{wp|developed country}} with a very high {{wp|quality of life}}. Because of this, Tierrador is considered amongst one of the most powerful nations in the Cronan continent. It is also considered a melting pot of cultures, due to the large amount of immigration into the nation in the late 70s to the early 90s. It also possesses one of the most powerful economies, with a little over $12 trillion as its GDP. These traits were mainly derived from the influence of Cronan great powers such as [[Alstin]], in which missions from the Alstinian lands to Tierrador caused a rift in the cultural significance of the nation. The country is divided into 25 commonwealths, which equal to an area of 4,154,413 square kilometers, making it the 5th largest nation in the world by area, along with a population of close to 207 million. It is a unitary semi-constitutional monarchy, with all of the federal governmental functions being held in the nation’s capital, Taisgol. Tierrador is a prominent historical center of Cronan art, science and philosophy. It is one of the world’s leading tourist destinations, attracting over 76 million people from around the world yearly. It contains landmarks such as various temples dating back to the ancient [[Songun Civilization]], the [[Palacio de Prosperidad]] (lit. Palace of Prosperity) in Taisgol, the many luscious and sandy beaches situated across the coastline of the mainland and the Saukhin Islands, the mountainous northwestern region, and the unique pre-colonial architecture across the hilly Songun Coast. Tierrador employs a federal system, consisting of [[Administrative divisions of Tierrador|25 commonwealths]], with most federal authority sections based in [[Taisgol]], along with a few government agencies based in the historical city of [[Qabór]].

The earliest recorded evidence of human presence in Tierrador began in the Paleolithic era, however not much is known about these early humans. Many indigenous peoples from Alshar migrated through various waterways to the north of Crona, in places such as Varshan, Alpachnia, and the Nysdra Sea. As the decades progressed, these indigenous peoples migrated down to the south of Crona. One of these tribes were known as the Qabór, who eventually would control one of the most powerful empires in history. For close to two thousand years, the Qabóri Woqalate was the sole ruler of the South Cronan Peninsula, spanning from modern-day [[Ceylonia]] to [[Ehemo]]. The Qabóri Woqalate mostly remained in power until the late 1800s, when the eastern portion of the empire was reformed into the Tierradorian Woqalate. After many decades of war and uncertainty, Tierrador was finally reformed into a republic. The republic, led by ambitious military general Tesío Takosenia, would undergo a long period of many warring states, known in history as the Takosenic Wars. After the Takosenic Wars ended, the House of Woqelee, who, except for a brief period during the 20th century, maintains control of the Woqalate today, would take power. During the reign of the [[Walakee State]] in the 20th century, there were no elections for the head of government, the Qaphenć. Instead, both the Woqali and the Qaphenć was appointed via line of succession, practically making Tierrador a police state and dictatorship. Despite the characteristics of an authoritarian government, quality of life in Tierrador was among the best in Crona. This was due to the various opportunities for wealth presented by the [[Tierradorian Promise]], a term coined by former Grand Woqali [[Satola Sanléc]] in 1943, to describe the many industries and job opportunities based in Tierrador. The 1950s to the 1990s were characterized by a large population boom, as authoritarian Grand Woqali [[Pedro Gomez]] desired to turn the Woqalate into the world's next superpower. Following the [[1993 Tierradorian financial crisis]], and the reinstatement of the House of Woqelee, Tierrador experienced an economic boom, due to the discovery of oil and many other natural resources. Now, it is a prominent destination for economic and social prosperity.

The Tierradorian Woqalate is an extremely diverse nation, with 21 ancestry groups having more than 1 million self-reported members. Qabóri-Tierradorians, who typically report ancestry from the Qabóri Nation of Indigenous Cronans, [[Coscivian]], [[Polynesia|Polynesian]], [[Sarpedon|Sarpedonian]], and [[Levantia|Levantine]], form the largest [[w:Race|racial]] and [[w:Ethnic group|ethnic group]] within the nation at 41.4%, or almost 77 million Tierradorians. Indigenous Cronans, referred to as the [[Abio Nations]], make up 27.2% (about 50.5 million) and are the second-largest group in Tierrador. Coscivians make up 18.1% (33.6 million) of the total population and are the third-largest group in Tierrador. Ænglish-origin Tierradorians (mostly from [[Alstin]], [[Arcerion]], and [[Urcea]]), make up 11.7 million Tierradorians and are 6.3% of the total population. Tierradorians with ancestry from all areas of the [[Audonia|Audonian continent]] are typically recognized within the same group, referred officially as Audonian-Tierradorian. This group makes up almost 9 million Tierradorians and make up 4.8% of the population. Half of the Audonian community reported origin from [[Daxia]], with the rest usually reporting ancestry to [[Metzetta]], [[Pursat]], [[Peshabiwar]], and [[Huoxia]]. The remaining 2.2%, or 4.1 million, were reported as "other." In 2030, it was reported that the [[w:Population pyramid|median age]] for Tierradorians population was 27.5 years.
