Tierrador is a {{wp|developed country}} with a very high {{wp|quality of life}}. Because of this, Tierrador is considered amongst one of the most powerful nations in the Cronan continent. It is also considered a melting pot of cultures, due to the large amount of immigration into the nation in the late 70s to the early 90s. It also possesses one of the most powerful economies, with a little over $12 trillion as its GDP. These traits were mainly derived from the influence of Cronan great powers such as [[Alstin]], in which missions from the Alstinian lands to Tierrador caused a rift in the cultural significance of the nation. The country is divided into 25 regions, which equal to an area of 4,154,413 square kilometers, making it the 5th largest nation in the world by area, along with a population of close to 186 million. It is a unitary semi-constitutional monarchy, with all of the federal governmental functions being held in the nation’s capital, Taisgol. Tierrador is a prominent historical center of Cronan art, science and philosophy. It is one of the world’s leading tourist destinations, attracting over 76 million people from around the world yearly. It contains landmarks such as various temples dating back to the ancient [[Songun Civilization]], the [[Palacio de Prosperidad]] (lit. Palace of Prosperity) in Taisgol, the many luscious and sandy beaches situated across the coastline of the mainland and the Saukhin Islands, the mountainous northwestern region, and the unique pre-colonial architecture across the hilly Songun Coast. Tierrador is a federal republic, consisting of [[Administrative divisions of Tierrador|25 regions and 3 collectivities]], with most federal authority sections based in [[Taisgol]], along with a few government agencies based in the historical city of [[Qabór]]. | Tierrador is a {{wp|developed country}} with a very high {{wp|quality of life}}.

The earliest recorded evidence of human presence in Tierrador began in the Paleolithic era, however not much is known about these early humans. Many indigenous peoples from Alshar migrated through various waterways to the north of Crona, in places such as Varshan, Alpachnia, and the Nysdra Sea. As the decades progressed, these indigenous peoples migrated down to the south of Crona. One of these tribes were known as the Qabór. For close to two thousand years, the Qabór was the sole ruler of the South Cronan Peninsula, taking over modern-day Tierrador, [[Istrenya]], [[Ceylonia]], and parts of [[Pankara]]. The Qabór mostly remained in power until the late 1800s, when the eastern portion of the empire was reformed into the Tierradorian Woqalate. After many decades of war and uncertainty, Tierrador was finally reformed into a republic.

After many decades of war and uncertainty, Tierrador was finally reformed into a republic. However, this republic did not last long, as the First Beaver War, which lasted from 1823 to 1830, the nation was once again reformed into an empire, where it was controlled by several conflicting ruling houses, during the Second Beaver War. In 1867, where the House of Woqelee eventually took power, where, except for a brief period during the 20th century, it maintains control of the Woqalate today. During the reign of the [[Oenqeri Tierrador|House of Oenqer]] in the 20th century, there were no elections for the head of government, the Qaphenć. Instead, both the Woqala and the Qaphenć was appointed via line of succession, practically making Tierrador a dictatorship. Despite the characteristics of an authoritarian government, quality of life in Tierrador was among the best in Crona. This was due to the various opportunities for wealth presented by the [[Tierradorian Promise]], a term coined by former Woqala Auna Saunlec in 1943, to describe the many industries and job opportunities based in Tierrador. The 1950s to the 1990s were characterized by a large population boom, as authoritarian Woqal Pedro Gomez desired to turn the Woqalate into the world's next superpower. Following the [[1993 Tierradorian financial crisis]], and the reinstatement of the House of Woqelee, Tierrador experienced an economic boom, due to the discovery of oil and many other natural resources. Now, it is a prominent destination for economic and social prosperity. | ||
