It covers an area of 1,026,904 square kilometres (396,490 sq mi) which includes the island of [[Ardran]], the islands of [[New Ardmore]], and the [[Eriskay Islands]]. The country has a population of almost 99 million, the vast majority of which is situated within the country's coastal regions and central belt.

By 300 CE, the Germanic {{wp|English people|Ænglish people}} had migrated into the central areas of modern Carna, establishing permanent settlements in the region. The south and southwestern coastal areas and the mountainous northern areas of Carna remained under the rule of the native {{wp|Gaels|Gaelic}} people up until the collapse of [[Great Levantia]] in 500 CE. This saw the Ængles conquer much of Carna, developing a distinct Ænglo-Gaelic culture that laid the foundation of the {{wp|Scots language|Carnish}} language. Following the dissolution of the [[Western Kingdom of the Levantines]] in 978, the [[Kingdom of Carna]] was founded in 995, beginning more than a millennia of independent Carnish rule. With the advent of the {{wp|Age of Discovery}}, Carna entered the global stage and established itself as a strong naval power, building a colonial empire with the establishment of the colony of [[Arcerion]] in southern [[Crona]]. Calls for reform in the late 18th century would see the Carnish monarchy relinquish significant power to an [[Old Carnish Parliament|elected parliament]]. Carna would briefly enter the [[First Great War]] in 1938, assisting its colonial dependency of Arcerion in its border war with [[Paulastra]] by establishing a naval blockade of Paulastran ports. The development and spread of {{wp|Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Livasist}}though combined with dissatisfaction with working and living conditions and general civil unrest following the 1905 [[Langfield Massacre]] would culminate in the [[Carnish Revolution]] of 1948 which saw the Carnish monarchy deposed and the outbreak of the [[Carnish Civil War]]. The civil war would come to an end in 1915 with the surrender of the last [[White Army of Carna|monarchist forces]] and the subsequent establishment of the [[Proclamation of the People's Republic of Carna|People's Republic of Carna]].

The development and spread of {{wp|Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Livasist thought}} combined with dissatisfaction with working and living conditions and civil and political discontent would culminate in the [[Carnish Revolution]] of 1912 which saw the Carnish monarchy deposed and the outbreak of the [[Carnish Civil War]]. The civil war would come to an end in 1915 with the surrender of the last [[White Army of Carna|monarchist forces]] and the subsequent establishment of the [[Proclamation of the People's Republic of Carna|People's Republic of Carna]] — the world's first Marxist-Livasist state.


Since the Carnish Revolution of 1948, Carna has been governed as a {{wp|Unitary state|unitary}} {{wp|Socialist state|socialist state}} under the [[Communist Party of Carna]] (CPC). Although political organisation are not explicitly outlawed, the CPC is enshrined in the [[Carnish Constituion]] as the nation's only legitimate political party and as the only political party legally permitted to hold effective power, with only political organisations affiliated with or endorsed by the CPC permitted to contest elections, making Carna a ''de facto'' {{wp|One-party state|one-party state}}. Following the collapse of the [[Kurul Union]] in 1991, Carna assumed the leadership of the [[Communist International]], with the country now recognised as the global leader of the {{wp|Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Livasist}} {{wp|Socialism|socialist}} movement.

Carna is a highly {{wp|Developed country|developed nation}}, with an advanced {{wp|World Bank high-income economy|high-income economy}}. It has very high standards of {{wp|Standard of living|living}}, {{wp|Quality of life|quality of life}}, {{wp|Education|education}}, {{wp|Health care|health care}}, and is categorised as "very high" in the {{wp|Human Development Index}}, with it offering expansive [[Social security in Carna|social security]], a [[Carnish Health Service|universal healthcare system]] free at the point of use, strong environmental protections, a [[Education in Carna|tution-free education at all levels]], and more. However, due to its ''de facto'' status as a one-party state, its lack of political representation, and its repression of dissenting political movements, the country ranks poorly in the [[Democracy Index]]. The CPC have, however, contested Carna's Democracy Index ranking, calling the index a "biased and untruthful record that does not recognise forms of democracy outside of those of the liberal strain and that seeks to push an anti-Carnish and anti-socialist agenda."
