The Social Republic of something (: FILLER) commonly referred to as something is a    state located in Eastern Avalonia and comprised of 14 provinces. It is the Easternmost country in Avalonia, and has a population 35.6 million people, making it the Xth most populous country. Its original capital was moved from Anngrad during some war to its current location and third largest city, São Caetano.

The first peoples to inhabit the territory that would become "something", which would later become the Pemon, Arauke, and Queha tribes, are believed to have migrated from western Kesh to Avalonia via an ancient land bridge connecting the two continents during the last Ice Age. The first indigenous settlers are believed to have arrived between 12,000 and 10,000 BCE and formed the nomadic tribes of the Pemon and Queha tribes in the southern plains, while the Arauke tribe settled (somewhere in the jungle) and formed (some civilization)

History
The first peoples in the territory comprising today's something were what would become the Pemon, Arauke, and Queha tribes, who as with most of the Avalonian indigenous people are believed to have arrived during the last glacial maximum between 12,000 and 10,000 BCE. The history of both the Pemon and Queha peoples is poorly known as they do not have a written language, but it is believed that the Pemon and Arauke were initially a single tribe. However, due to reasons currently unknown, the Pemon split from the Arauke. The split is known to have occurred between the years of 20 AD and 30 AD, the only known written record of which comes from an erected stone pillar found in the ancient city of Tilhueca, the largest city of (some civilization), dated to around 50 AD which states, "Any person suspected of being a Pemon tribesman is to be brought before the Emperor to be judged". From this, it appears the split between the Pemon and Arauke may have been violent, further strengthened by the many conflicts and icy relations the two groups continue to have today.

In 1517 AD, something was discovered by Ferdinand Lopez II, who settled the modern day port city of

Geography
something is located on the easternmost point of the Avalonian continent, and borders the Iapetus Ocean to the east. It shares land borders with three countries, Xto the west, X to the south, and X to the southwest.

something is split roughly halfway, with the (jungle) and Telahue river basin in the northwest and the (plains) in the southeast. In the north and south of the basin, the hills give way to flat coastal plains. Four different rivers run through the basin; the namesake Nabão River which runs from the Serra Oriental in the northeast to Baía Azul in the south.

Baía Azul itself is one of the largest natural bays in Maredoratica at 28,325 square kilometres (10,936 square miles). It has been of strategic importance to both Jungastia for centuries, as it has provided the country with a large, deep natural waterway protected from storms. This has meant that the vast majority of the commercial activity in both countries has been around this bay, with the largest ports in Jungastia and Gereland located on the bay. Two island groups are located in the bay; the Santa Cruz Islands in the north and the Almeria Islands in the south. Both of these island groups are moderately populated and are known for their famous high diving cliffs and secluded beaches.

The Serra Real in the central part of Jungastia is the most prominent geographical feature of the nation. A number of important cities lie within the foothills and wide valleys formed by the Serra Real and its neighboring massifs; the Maciço Branco in the northwest and the Maciço de as Dois Coroas in the south. The highest mountains in Jungastia can be found in the Serra Real, with [[Monte

Islands
There are 42 islands in Jungastia divided between eight island groups.

Politics
Jungastia has been a Constitutional Monarchy since the ratification of the Constitution of 1967, with Santo André, the nation's largest city, as its capital. The Constitution, one of the longest and most detailed in Maredoratica, sets out in minutiae the separation of powers.

The Government is headed by the State Premier (currently Sérgio Ribeiro Miranda de Carvalho) who is approved by the unicameral Congresso Nacional. The Court system works through numerous levels, culminating in the Supreme Court, who functions both as a court of final appeal, and as a constitutional court.

Jungastia has a multi-party system of governance, that is largely unitary, with devolution to the ethnically Romanian region of Rondônia, and to the Santo André region. The electoral threshold is very low in comparison to other countries, at just 0.5%. Since the overthrow of the dictatorship in 1966, coalitions of left and centre-left have predominated, with two grand coalitions after the first two general elections under the new constitution. The two Regional Assemblies operate much like the National Congress, and use the reserved power model. They have legislative competency over any area, unless specifically withheld by the Government.

Monarchy
Jungastia is a, and the Royal house - Braganza-Alentejo - have held the Jungastian crown since unification in 1420. The Current Monarch is Agostinho III.

Parliament
The interactions of these three bodies, the monarchy, people and government are laid out chiefly in the 1832 Instrument of State which together with numerous amendments, additions and related laws forms the semi-codified Jungastian constitution. In these documents, the root of power is concentrated de jure’’ with the reigning monarch, however these powers are largely delegated through the 1901 Memorandum on the Interactions between Monarch, State and Subjects'’ to the unicameral Parlamento Nacional and the head of government, the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is appointed by the monarch, and is, by law the leader of the largest party in the successful coalition. Elections to the 857 parliament chamber occur once every six years, on the second Monday in September. The vote is carried out using the as part of mixed member proportionality method to single member constituencies for 246 seats, with the remaining being allocated to the closed party lists. This system was introduced following the abolition of the upper house in 1943, replacing the first-past-the-post system for the old lower house, and the unappointed Senate. Should the government receive a vote of no confidence, elections can be called during the six year cycle.

Transportation
The transportation system of Jungastia has a long and complex history, with the railway system taking a priority over the once dominating motorway network. Following massive investment in from the mid 1960s onwards has left a greatly efficient and well connected network serving all major towns and cities. Using a specially adapted versions of the FRDS V-225 line speeds hit a maximum of 325km/h.

The motorway network connects major cities and is largely unrestricted in its speed, with lower limits of 80 and 120km/h in high risk locations and in inclement weather conditions.
