The Electorate of Canaery is one of three crownlands of the Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea. It was an electorate of the Holy Levantine Empire, and it was acquired by the Urcean Crown in 1144, though it was not formally integrated into the crown of Urcea until 1589. It is the homeland of the Caenish people. Unlike the other two crownlands, Canaery is not considered an integral part of the realm according to the precedent set by the Golden Bull of 1098, but it retains its place of precedence due to the historical connection it gives between Urcea and the Holy Levantine Empire.

Etymology

Canaery shares the same basic root as the Sea of Canete, canto, in both contexts referring to a marginal section of a country or civilization. These terms were applied both to the sea and to the area around Cana due to their peripheral status within Adonerum. The earliest application of the terms is not known, and the development of canto to Canorium, the Great Levantine province, is similarly historically unclear. Contrary to popular opinion, the word Caenish or Caen is unrelated to the name Canaery and instead refers to Gothic tribal origins.

History

Canaery was, like much of Levantia, settled by Gaelic people until the arrival of the Adonerii in the 800s BC. They established the city that would become known as Cana, which was a major trading outpost due to the large natural harbor protruding into the Sea of Canete.

Cities and towns

Economy

In 2034-35, the Electorate of Canaery was calculated to have an approximate GDP of $2,248,106,751,418.

Demographics

Government

The Apostolic King of Urcea nominally rules Canaery as its Prince-Elector, but like the Archduchy of Urceopolis and Grand Duchy of Yustona, the Electorate is fully integrated within Urcea. Like the Archduchy, the Electorate utilizes a near-fully parliamentary system, but unlike the Archduchy the Governor-General is not a non-partisan role. In the Electorate, the Royal Parliament of Canaery, lead by the Electoral Chancellor, selects a pool of candidates it would approve of as Governor-General - typically three to five candidates - and forwards them on to the Apostolic King of Urcea for selection. In this way, the government of Canaery more fully appears like other parliamentary systems, with a nominal executive appointed by the will of the Royal Parliament who exercises purely ceremonial functions. The Royal Parliament meets in Parliament House in Cana.

Politics

Sports

Unlike much of the rest of Urcea, automobile racing - and particularly, the International Racing Federation - is a very popular sport in Canaery. Canaery has become known globally as something of a "best known secret" for producing skilled drivers. Canaery is also home of Saraçen Motors, a high-end automobile manufacturer which began as a method to fund a motorsport team.
