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 enter the [[Great War]] in 1939, fighting alongside their former rival of Urcea. The country would exit the war in 1948 following the [[Carnish Revolution]] which saw the Carnish monarchy deposed and the subsequent establishment of the [[Proclamation of the People's Republic of Carna|People's Republic of Carna]].

Since the Carnish Revolution of 1948, Carna has been governed as a {{wp|Non-partisan democracy|non-partisan}} {{wp|Semi-direct democracy|semi-direct democracy}}, with political parties being outlawed by its [[Constitution of Carna|constitution]]. It is the world's only democracy that does not employ a {{wp|Multi-party system|multi-party}} or {{wp|One-party state|one-party}} system. Despite this, almost all [[Forgaitherin Delegate|representatives]] elected to its national legislature, the [[Forgaitherin]], are followers of the {{wp|Communism|communist}} ideology of Bairdism. This ideology sees the country organised as a highly decentralised union of [[Economy of Carna|workers']], [[Carnish Armed Forces|soldiers']] and peoples' councils. The peoples' councils serve as the country's {{wp|Federated state|federal entities}} and are [[Federalism in Carna|highly autonomous]], wielding significant local power.    
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–Kassist}} {{wp|Socialism|socialist}} movement.  


Carna is one of the three founding countries of the [[Treaty of International Assistance and Development]] (TRIAD) and it's capital, Dunaird, hosts the [[Glamis House|organisation's headquarters]]. The country 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. Due to its {{wp|Direct democracy|directly-democratic}} tendencies, strong powers of the electorate over elected officials, and high levels of electoral transparency, the country also ranks in first place in the [[Democracy Index]].

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."


Known for its [[Culture of Carna|long and rich cultural history]], Carna has [[List of World Heritage Sites in Carna|many World Heritage Sites]] and [[Tourism in Carna|is among the top tourism destinations]] in Levantia. The country's national anthem, "{{wp|Auld Lang Syne}}", has become an internationally recognised anthem which is sung around the world on {{wp|New Year's Eve}} to mark the beginning of a new year.
