'''Serikorda''' is a state in Northeastern Great Kirav, bordering [[Kaviska]] to the south across Lake Needaname, [[Harma]] to the east, Enscirya to the north, and several states to the west.
 
Serikorda has made significant contributions to Kiravian society at large, and has an outsized position of influence in Kiravian politics due to its early, frequent, and fiercely competitive elections.
 
==History==
The {{wp|type specimen}} fossil of the extinct {{wp|hominin}} ''Homo vetus montanis'', which left trace contributions to the modern Kiravian gene pool, was found neat the base of Mount Talod in County Katla.
 
<!-- Serikorda was originally home to the Hottopik and Paksun tribes of [[Kiravite Urom]]. Gaelic clans also inhabited parts of the area at various times. During the Coscivian Colonial period, in the course of dividing the still-unsettled areas of Great Kirav, Emperor Xorokaster II issued contradictory decrees granting authority over what would become Serikorda to both the Audiencia of Harma and the Captaincy-General of [[Róvidrea]], which would later be subsumed under the Viceroyalty of Kaviska and the Viceroyalty of Andera, respectively. However, neither colony exercised any actual control over the area, which remained populated mainly by the Paksun and Hottopik. Coscivian and Celtic immigration began in earnest during the [[Cromwelute Wars|Cromwelute Depredations]], with Serikorda's sheltered geography attracting people from coastal areas who moved inland to escape Cromwelute raids. These settlers came mainly from neighbouring Róvidrea, Harma, and the Gaelic lands that would become Irovasdra and Arkelly, and they succeeded in forming lasting settlements around the fringes of the Serikorda Basin while the Urom retained control over the hinterland. Kaviska administered the area as a countyship of Róvidrea and Andera as a countyship of Harma throughout the colonial period, and although the two governments were aware of immigration by each others' subjects and continued to assert their overlapping claims, the limited size of the Coscivian settlements and lack of contact between them prevented the territorial dispute from becoming a matter of concern until much later.
 
The Coscivian and Gaelic population of Serikorda declined after the defeat and eradication of the Cromwelutes, which allowed many of the colonists to either return home or move on to the new and often better lands that had become available in Upper Kirav. However, it would recover during the Viceregal period when mounting population pressure across the eastern seaboard increased demand for land and many people became willing to settle in highland, forest, and frontier areas further from the control of the increasingly corrupt and heavy-handed Viceregal governments. As before, the southern part of the state would be settled mainly by [[Kir people|Kir Coscivians]] and Sedhan Coscivians pushing northward from Róvidrea, the east would be settled mainly by [[Eshavian Coscivians]] pushing westward from Harma and [[Fariva]], and the upland northern and western areas would be settled mainly by Gaels. However, unlike during the Cromwelute Wars, these larger waves of settlers with improved agricultural and military technology were far more successful in decimating the Urom population and bringing large tracts of land under cultivation, creating contiguous zones of settlement that eventually collided with one another. This resulted in a great deal of violence between settler militias of different origins settling on tracts of land granted to them by their respective governments. Kiyrgava (later the [[United Provinces]]), Andera, and Arkelly sent troops into Serikorda on various occasions to evict "squatters", and more rarely to engage the regular forces of other claimants. -->
 
==Politics and Government==
Serikorda is widely known for the complicated structure of its state government, its strong municipal governments, its {{wp|cosocionational}} constitution, and it its fiercely competitive political landscape.
===Law===
===Local Government===
Owing to the strong localist traditions of both the Eshavian community with its Anderan town meetings on one hand and the "croft and clan" orientation of the Highlander community on the other, as well as the fact that the state government has reliably been gridlocked and dysfunctional, Serikorda has very strong local governments, even by Kiravian standards.
 
Major classes of municipal governments include:
City
Town
Township
Charter village
 
Minor classes include:
Direct-democratic village
Sortition village
Mountain hamlet
Indigenous municipality
 
===Political Parties===
Serikordan electoral law is notoriously permissive with regard to the registration of new political parties, {{wp|ballot access}}, and {{wp|electoral fusion}}. As of Sávilús 21207, there are 216 active registered parties and 306 registered parties that are inactive or in abeyance.
 
In accordance with [[Antipartisan law in Kiravia| the antipartisan laws adopted after Kirosocialism]], political parties as generally understood may not operate in the federal government, and registration of political parties must take place at the federal-subject level. Parties seeking a multi-state presence must have separately incorporated, registered, and financed chapters in each state. As such, due to its permissive registration policies, Serikordia is usually the first or second state where new or newly-expanding multistate parties establish a chapter, even if they engage in little or no political activity in Serikordia itself.
 
==Society and Culture==
 
<!--
Serikorda is notable for its highly {{wp|pillarisation|pillarised}} society, in which
 
'''PILLARS'''
*The '''First Pillar''' or '''Anderan Pillar''' was established by Coscivian settlers who came to Serikorda from [[Harma]] and [[Fariva]]. The majority of people in the First Pillar are ethnic [[Eshavian Coscivians|Eshavian]], though it has grown to include people of other ethnic backgrounds who regularly use the Eshavian Coscivian language or were educated in historically Eshavian schools. In modern times, non-Gaelic people who move to Serikorda from Harma and Fariva typically identify and register with the First Pillar, as do other newcomers who settle in predominantly First Pillar communities. Members of the First Pillar are most heavily concentrated in the east.
 
*The '''Second Pillar''' or '''Róvidrean Pillar''' was established by Coscivian settlers who came to Serikorda from Róvidrea and other parts of [[Kaviska]]. Members of the Kir subgroups native to Kaviska (most prominently Róvidrean Coscivians, but also Estuary Coscivians and Kandans) account for a plurality of people in this pillar, though it has grown to include such diverse groups as Paisonic Coscivians, [[Melian Isles|Melotes]], and Rumelis. The community language of the Second Pillar is [[Kiravic Coscivian]]. Members of the Second Pillar are most heavily concentrated in the south.
 
*The '''Third Pillar''', also known as the '''Celtic Pillar''' or '''Fenian Pillar''', was established by Gaelic people who came to Serikorda from existing areas of Gaelic settlement to the state's north and west, mainly Irovasdra and Arkelly. It mainly comprises ethnic Gaels and [[Féinem]], though many [[Ĥeiran Coscivians]] and non-Gaelic adherents of the [[Insular Apostolic Church]] identify and register with the Third Pillar. The community language of the Third Pillar is [[Gaelic in Kiravia|Kiravian Gaelic]], though [[Fenian Kiravic]] may in fact be just as commonly used in everyday life. Members of the Third Pillar are most heavily concentrated in the north and west.
 
'''MINOR PILLARS'''
In addition to the three major pillars of Serikordan society, the law also recognises several minor pillars. The '''Kaltan Pillar''' exists for the state's large Kaltan Coscivian population and can maintain its own educational and cultural facilities and policies, but does not have a reservation in the cosocionational system of the state's politics. For electoral purposes, members of the Kaltan Pillar must register with one of the three major pillars (usually the Second or Third). The Valosian Pillar, for [[Valosian Coscivians]], exists in similar circumstances to the Kaltan Pillar. The '''Kirosocialist Pillar''' was organised during the Kirosocialist era in the spirit of national/civic unity and ethnosocial [[Glossary of Coscivian Terms#Dh|nondistinctionism]] after government-imposed depillarisation of Serikorda failed. Although it originally had the same political rights and organisational structure as the major pillars (despite having far fewer members), the Kirosocialist pillar had almost all of its political reservations stripped from it after the National Renewal and now operates in a similar fashion to the Kaltan Pillar. The '''Urom Pillar''' was created by an act of the state legislature in 21202 as part of the state's efforts at reconciliation with its severely reduced Urom population, which was subjected to genocide in the course of Coscivian and Celtic settlement. Though the smallest pillar by far with 2,136, it is reserved legislative seats. Its community languages are Hottopik and Paksun, which have 160 and 4 native speakers, respectively. 27% of people registered with the Urom Pillar are Urom from tribes native to other parts of the country.
 
There exists the option to register with the General or Nondistinctive Pillar, though this pillar has no social institutions of its own and affords its members little in the way of amenities, patronage, or political clout.

==Economy==
Serikorda has an underdeveloped economy suffering from high unemployment and limited investment. The decline of key industries, limited agricultural potential, and lack of a seacoast or inland waterway are the main factors behind the state's disappointing economic performance.
Serikorda prospered greatly in the days of the [[Ice trade in Kiravia|ice trade]], cutting the plentiful ice from the surface of Lake Needaname for transportation to the coastal states and export from [Northern Kaviska City], Bissáv, and Śonseuv.

Serikorda is a state in Northeastern Great Kirav, bordering Kaviska to the south across Lake Needaname, Harma to the east, Enscirya to the north, and several states to the west.

Serikorda has made significant contributions to Kiravian society at large, and has an outsized position of influence in Kiravian politics due to its early, frequent, and fiercely competitive elections.

History

The type specimen fossil of the extinct hominin Homo vetus montanis, which left trace contributions to the modern Kiravian gene pool, was found neat the base of Mount Talod in County Katla.


Politics and Government

Serikorda is widely known for the complicated structure of its state government, its strong municipal governments, its cosocionational constitution, and it its fiercely competitive political landscape.

Economy

Serikorda has an underdeveloped economy suffering from high unemployment and limited investment. The decline of key industries, limited agricultural potential, and lack of a seacoast or inland waterway are the main factors behind the state's disappointing economic performance.

Serikorda prospered greatly in the days of the ice trade, cutting the plentiful ice from the surface of Lake Needaname for transportation to the coastal states and export from [Northern Kaviska City], Bissáv, and Śonseuv.

The pine flannel industry was once a major pillar of the state economy and the lifeblood of many hill towns, but is now a waning sunset industry. Most of the pine flannel mills were converted into worker coöperatives during Kirosocialism, under the purview of the Pine Flannel Board. Most have since closed under the pressure of trade liberalisation and competition from superior woolen and synthetic fibre flannels, though a few remain in operation.

The post-Kirosocialist economy of Serikorda is buoyed by tourism (focused on picturesque Lake Needaname, historic towns and quaint villages, and trekking in the hills and mountains) and the companion industry of constructing vacation and retirement homes.
