History
[Austronesian inhabitants] [Coscivian colonisation] [During KFR exile] [Post-Restoration]
Politics & Governance
Sarolasta is one of five themes of the Kiravian Federacy, the alongside the Kiravian Federal Republic, Lesser Kirav, Sydona, the Melian Isles, and the Overseas Regions. The states and territories that make up Sarolasta have, by compact, created a Commonwealth Council and President of the Commonwealth to exercise thematic functions. The Commonwealth Council comprises the ranking members of the state and territorial legislatures, as well as [relevant subset of cabinet officials]. The President of the Commonwealth is elected by [the Nigerian system] every 42 months and has some *pro forma* duties regarding the certification of electoral votes and thematic resolutions, in addition to serving as a public advocate for the people of Sarolasta.
Due to its strong adherence to Catholicism and demand for higher social spending and development aid, Sarolasta is a stronghold for the Caritist Social Union in elections to the Stanora, often electing candidates of a pronounced Christian socialist ideological bent.
Society & Culture
The majority of the Sarolastan population is of indigenous Austronesian stock with some degree of Éorsan Coscivian admixture. 25-32% are fully or primarily of Éorsan Coscivian ancestry. There are many specific mestiśuv ethnicities formed by intermarriage between one Coscivian subgroup and one indigenous people, in a fascinating confluence of the Coscivian tuva system with indigenous tribal networks. The largest of these hybrid communities are the Paisonic-Aymang and Paisonic-Ailmao. The Éorsan Coscivian contribution to the Sarolastan cultural mélange is provided mainly by Paisonic, Lusan, Kastrovan, Eskean, Tebnan, Kerēgulan, Vèuskan, [the usual seafaring groups], Æonaran/Umcaran, and Westcoastmarine/Serradan Coscivians.
There is a significant minority of Corummese and mixed Corummese-Polynesian descent.
During the exile period, the Federalist government implemented major reforms on Sarolasta to prevent rebellion. This included recognising all native and mestiśuv communities practicing monotheism, monogamy, tuva, and [other key Coscivian hallmarks] as Coscivians and inviting their customary kings and chieftains to pledge fealty to the Basswood Emperor.
[Leftover minorities from other nations’ colonisation attempts?]
[Languages] [Creole languages]
76% of Sarolastans adhere to the Catholic Church, overwhelmingly to the Coscivian Rite. Minority Christian sects include the Coscivian Orthodox and Independent Orthodox churches, Æglasta-i-Xristul, and Mormonism. Some Kastrovans and Kastrovan-Mestizos are Insular Apostolic. Among the Éorsan Coscivian population there are minorities adhering to Ruricanism, Iduanism, and Komarism.
Sarolasta has a Muslim community.
