New Veltorina is a country that, in many respects, has two histories: the history of its indigenous peoples and that of the [[Veltorine people]], who arrived in the 20th century. | |||
===Indigenous history=== | |||
===The Diaspora and Cronan settlement=== | ===The Diaspora and Cronan settlement=== | ||
The conquest of [[Veltorina]] at the end of the [[First Great War]] brought to an end the independence of the nation-state of the [[Veltorine people]], a people native to northeastern [[Sarpedon]]. Their conquest by [[Caphiria]] led to a century of various efforts by the Veltorine people to reestablish their independence, both in their home territory and, later, abroad. The [[Veltorine government-in-exile]] supported efforts to reestablish Veltorine independence, while later movements such as the [[Veltorine_people#Life_Abroad_Movement|Life Abroad Movement]] and 21st century resettlements supported by [[Urcea]] sought to establish a new Veltorine state abroad. | The conquest of [[Veltorina]] at the end of the [[First Great War]] brought to an end the independence of the nation-state of the [[Veltorine people]], a people native to northeastern [[Sarpedon]].

New Veltorina is a {{wp|unitary republic|unitary}} [[Julian republic]] with a {{wp|unicameral legislature}}. It is governed by the Constitution of 2028, which took effect Jan 1 of that year following a [[New_Veltorine_Provisional_Government#Constitutional_convention_and_elections|convention and ratification process]] that took place in 2026-27. As a Julian republic, the Veltorine constitution is modeled on the form of the [[Government of Urcea|Urcean government]], which employs different offices each for the {{wp|head of state}}, the {{wp|chief executive}}, and the {{wp|head of government}}. Unlike most other Julian systems, New Veltorina employs {{wp|civil law}}; accordingly, the National Convocation is the final court of appeal and the judicial system is largely made up of appointed arbitrators rather than a freestanding court system. Some courts are established in the largest cities, such as [[New Taxades]]. | New Veltorina is a {{wp|unitary republic|unitary}} [[Julian republic]] with a {{wp|unicameral legislature}}.
