Kujalleq (Kujaliqtitut: ᑯᔭᓕᖅᒥᑦ, Latinized: Kujaliqmit), officially the People's Democratic Republic of Kujalleq (ᐃᓄᐃᑦ ᓂᕈᐊᕐᕕᖃᕈᓐᓇᕐᓂᖏᑦ ᑯᔭᓕᖅᒥᑦ, Inuit Niruarviqarunnarningit Kujaliqmit, PDRK), is an island country in the subcontinent of Peratra in western Australis. It is the southernmost country in the world and is connected to mainland Australis year-round by the Australis ice sheet. With an area of 572,180 km2 (220,920 sq mi) and a population of just over 2.1 million, it is one of the world's most sparsely populated countries. However, over 97% of its population reside north of the Paqkijittiavat Mountains along the Bay of Diamav in a region that makes up just 4% of its land area. This region has a significantly higher population density than the country as a whole and the capital and largest city of Kujalleq, Aputillu, is located here.
The ancestors of the Kujalleqi began arriving in Peratra from southern Crona approximately 15,000 years ago. Arriving by sea, they settled the majority of the subcontinent and lived a nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Following the arrival of the Polynesians from south-east Alshar in the the 3rd millenia BCE, the ancestors of the Kujalleqi disappeared from mainland Peratra, likely being assimilated into the arriving Polynesian culture or wiped out by infectious diseases transmitted by the Polynesians to which they had developed no immunity. Due to its lack of settlement by the Polynesians, the ancestors of the Kujalleqi persisted on the island of Kujalleq where they developed into the modern Kujalleqi.
