The country covers an area of {{convert|483700|km2|sqmi}}, making it the world's [[List of Nations|nth-largest country by area]], but with around 18.5 million inhabitants, it is one of the least populous nations worldwide. It has a largely {{wp|tropical climate}} with subtropic zones, predominantly in the northern interior. | ||
Although inhabited since the Paleolithic Era, what is now Porlos was molded by [[Cartadania]] | Although inhabited since the Paleolithic Era, what is now Porlos was molded by a mix of [[Cartadania|Cartadanian]] and [[Tierrador|Qabóri-Tierradorian]] civilization, due to the colonization from both empires. It began with the conquering of the Betlands region, which at the time would be referred to as the Soqweux, by [[Tierrador#Qabóri Woqalate|Imperial Qabór]]. There, for close to 700 years, the Qabóri colonies were typically limited to just coastal settlements and trading posts, as the areas being as far as they were from the Qabóri proper area were heavily neglected by the central government of the empire. In 1351, Porlos and the surrounding areas were granted independence as the Woqalate of Soqweux. Eventually, Cartadanian settlers established small colonies and posts starting in the 16th century as the West Bay Colony. In the 19th century, Cognatian settlers slowly and hesitantly began to establish themselves in the interior. The Cartadanian colony that became Porlos did not have its present borders until the early 20th century because of resistance by native groups. | ||
Porlos has vast mineral and petroleum reserves, and its economy is among the fastest-growing in the world, especially since the end of its civil war; however the standard of living remains low for a large part of the population, and life expectancy in Porlos is among the lowest in the world, a phenomenon exacerbated by the country's 1940s depression. Porlos' economic growth is uneven, with most of the nation's wealth concentrated in a disproportionate sector of the population. | Porlos has vast mineral and petroleum reserves, and its economy is among the fastest-growing in the world, especially since the end of its civil war; however the standard of living remains low for a large part of the population, and life expectancy in Porlos is among the lowest in the world, a phenomenon exacerbated by the country's 1940s depression.
