The Democratic Socialist Matriarchy of Koré'hetanùa, commonly known as Koré'hetanùa, is a sovereign state in Australis comprising the northernmost territory of the continent of Australis and the immediate surrounding islands. The nation is bordered by the Ocean of Cathay to the north and west, the Okatian Sea to the east, and the rest of the continent of Australis to the south. Koré'hetanùa's only neighbours are the overseas territories of De Chargbano Tapu, Escal, and Sudmoll, under the dominions of Pukhtunkhwa, Caphiria, and Burgundie respectively. The country is 2,045,702 km² (789,850 mi²) in size, with much of its territory dominated by the central Spine of Australis, or Australis Spinal mountain range. The mountain range is contrasted by two large forested coastal plains in the east and northwest. The eastern coastal plain extends furthest inland, and is home to some of the country's largest settlements, including the capital of Vànıa'vera. The northwestern is less populated as only two major rivers (both of which drain in nearly the same location) are present compared to the five major rivers and Lake Austral in the east. Regardless, the northwestern plain is home to the country's largest settlement, Àes Inòru, between the two aforementioned rivers of the region.
Koré'hetanùa is the largest nation by area and GDP per capita in the Austronesian world and is the second largest state by population and GDP behind Loa Republic. The economy of Koré'hetanùa is very diverse, largely out of necessity. Being so isolated Koré'hetanùa has significant industries in the traditional three industrial sectors of raw materials, manufacturing, and services.
Koré'hetanùa is largely considered to be the origin of Austronesian civilization in Ixnay, with the coastal city of Arisaki being the site of the oldest human remains discovered in Australis. How humans were able to migrate to Koré'hetanùa, let alone Australis, is contested to this day. Genetic evidence would suggest that the population of Koré'hetanùa originates from southeast Alshar, with geographically proximate nations such as Daxia and Tanhai being suspected origins of Austronesian people. However, these two landmasses are separated by the vast and deep Ocean of Cathay, making early maritime travel a working theory only if it is accepted that Polynesian maritime technology was far more developed than in other parts of the world.
Etymology
The name Koré'hetanùa is a combination of the names of the three main tribes that make up the present-day population of the country, the Koré, Túwapoviheta, and the Nùa Qıgòa. The Koré part of Koré'hetanùa is derived from the Koré tribe. The Koré have referred to themselves as such since antiquity and the name is typically interpreted as referring to "te korédá ola" or "the early people", deriving from the belief the native tribal belief that the Koré were the first people of Australis. The "heta" part of Koré'hetanùa refers to the Túwapoviheta. The Túwapoviheta have called themselves such since splitting from the Koré, with their name deriving from "ola túwa povi'ina he'te nùa" or "people towards proving to the new" or more simply "the newly made people".

Exploration of Australis
Genetic evidence suggests the Koré'hetanùan people originated from the Wonjin-Tanhai bay area. Over time the Koré'hetanùan people adapted to the climate of Australis and now have a lighter complexion compared to that of the people of East Alshar. Expansion from Alshar to Australis took place over hundreds of years, with the initial expansion taking place from around 2,500 BCE to 850 BCE. The primary route the initial seafarers took is debated among anthropologists, but it is agreed that the final stage of the expansion took place from Alstin and Etzil to Sarolasta, then finally to Koré'hetanùa around 1.400 BCE. Settlers arriving to Koré'hetanùa primarily settled the coastal areas of the continent while continuing to travel down the east and west coasts. The first major settlements on the continent were in the Arisaki Lowlands, Inòru Bay, Nùa Qıgòa Bay, Líı'vera Sound, and throughout the Lake Vanıa'vera drainage basin. Other settlements grew throughout Australis even before the Australis Bronze Age as many coastal areas of Australis were highly amicable for early settlers. Archeological findings extend as far south as Kıronizikova and Diamavıa Island, and it is likely that early Polynesian explorers knew of Antarctica prior to the first known recorded sightings by Burgoignesc explorers as such (though whether this is the case is still unknown).
Settlement of Koré'hetanùa
Settlement of Australis was largely distributed evenly throughout the continent. However, the settlers of Australis initially settled primarily along the low-lying coasts of the landmass where presence of dangerous wildlife was limited. Australis was home to a variety of dangerous megafauna and to this day remains one of the most diverse and hostile environments in the world. With terror birds, large marsupials, and large mammals such the Australic tiger and wolf, the coastal areas of the continent were comparatively much safer than the inland forests and mountains. As well, much of the land of Australis is dominated by a series of imposing mountain ranges that make cross-continental settlement difficult. As such, the once uniform settlers of Australis quickly diverged into various different tribal groups with their own customs and lifestyles. The largest three tribes of Koré'hetanùa are the Koré, Nùa Qıgòa, and the Túwapoviheta, each inhabited a different part of the northern lands of Australis. While the Nùa Qıgòa remained, for the most part, a singular and strong tribe along the open northwestern plain the Koré and Túwapoviheta went from a singular tribe to splitting into different groups in the north and south of the eastern lowlands. The Koré lived along the rivers south of the northern bits of the Australis Spinal range. With the Súda'awàle River leading north into the less dense Vànıa River basin. This prompted large scale expansion of the Koré along the northern rivers of the country and led to a massive population boom. Meanwhile, the Túwapoviheta settled the southern forest region and were initially met with much resistance from the wildlife. Trying to settle in the dense southern forests of the Túwa lowlands had the population of the Túwapoviheta pale in comparison to the Koré, but at the same time the Túwapoviheta culture developed around the idea of conquering nature. In contrast the Koré developed a culture of living within the environment and only developing so far as the environment permitted. By 1,200 BCE the Túwapoviheta had developed large population centers in the clear cut plains created through their development of the land. The Koré meanwhile only developed a few large population centers, though their largest, Vànıa'vera, was significantly larger than any one Túwapoviheta settlement.
