The Syndical Cooperative Kingdom of Vithinja ([[Ruthi Language|Ruþí]]: Viþjinsk) often simply referred to as The Cooperative is a constitutional monarchy located in [[Kiro-Borealis]], but can geopolitically be considered connected to the [[Levantia|Levantian]] region of Northern [[Ultmar]] and it's various nations. Sitting at the connection between the [[Kilikas Sea]] and the [[Sea of Nordska]] it is joined by [[Caergwynn]] in the south among the vithinjan island chain. Crossing the [[Kilikas Sea]] to the far west lies the island-continent nation of [[Kiravia]], heading southward instead one finds the lands of [[Faneria]]. Vithinja holds the only land crossing from Kiroborea to Levantia via the [[Bringär-Awraidd Bridging Project]], a large set of bridges and underwater tunnels connecting the Kiroborea mainland to most of the Vithinjan isles and ending in northern [[Caergwynn]]. The Vithinjan capital is the city of [[Rolvsvik]], despite being only the 7th largest city in the nation. Rolvsvik holds importance as the historical seat of power of the various royal lines of the nation as well as being the religious center for the [[Church of Rolv]]. The two largest cities are [[Tår Bringär]] and [[Cärssund]], both of which lie within the vithinjan isles. Tår Bringär has long been the economic capital of Vithinja as it holds a large and deep natural harbor well placed for both safety and trading purposes. For most of Ultmar history the city benefited from strategically defensible geography, avoiding devastation from the many wars that plagued the Ultmar mainlanders, but since the great war it has fallen in favor somewhat compared to these mainland harbor cities. Vithinja has a population of ~70 million people. The vast majority of the population lives either in the vithinjan isles, or the more temperate southern coastline, but the northern lakes region still holds small population centers. These northern population centers are important to help extract the large wealth of the northern lands. | The '''Syndical Cooperative Kingdom of Vithinja''' ([[Ruthi Language|Ruþí]]: Viþjinsk) often simply referred to as '''The Cooperative''' is a constitutional monarchy located in [[Kiro-Borealis]], but can geopolitically be considered connected to the [[Levantia|Levantian]] region of Northern [[Ultmar]] and it's various nations.

Vithinja is a nation reborn many a times until it's modern day state. It's latest reshaping being the [[Syndicalization]], an event only 80 years old. On the other hand the culture and traditions of a united northern nation has existed for almost a millennium. One of that nations largest issues is caused by large variety in cultures, religion, traditions and more recently ideologies, combined with a strong willed politically active populous, leading to the nation never truly being able to achieve stability. The nations origins is a tale of two very different peoples fighting each other for the reign but almost always united against foreign threats. The first traces of the two groups arriving in the north date back as far as 700 CE. From the evidence they were not the first people to live in the Vithinjan lands but whatever natives came before are long extinct. It is believed that the first group of settlers who would become the Ruthans left their homeland in western Levantia to sail for new lands in the north, while the celtic origins are even less certain. Both peoples started settling many of the islands along the northern coast of Levantia as well as finding the lands of [[Ruthinja]]. While the Ruthan people have generally been the rulers over both peoples the [[Vithinjan Demographics|Guerigogled]] have almost always outnumbered them, to the confusion of many scholars. | Vithinja is a nation reborn many a times until it's modern day state.
