Audrinea (/ˈɔːdɹɪneɪə/, Audrinean: Audrēja (Romantian script), Аудрējа (Cyrillic script), pronounced [ˈɑu̯drʲeːja]), officially the Republic of Audrinea (Audrinean: Audrējis Republika/Аудрējис Република) is a unitary parliamentary republic located in central Uletha. It is bordered by UL15i∈⊾ to the west, UL15b∈⊾ to the south and Beldonia∈⊾ to the east. To the north, it borders UL14f∈⊾ and UL14a∈⊾ to the northeast. The country covers a total area of 40,928 km2, and it can roughly be divided into western coastal lowlands and southern, eastern mountainous area.[1] The population is over 4.5 million and consists mainly of ethnic Audrineans, out of which over 900 thousand live in the largest city and capital Brūļava. The only official language is Audrinean, while others such as Virmetsian are recognized. [2]

Audrinea is classified as a high-income well developed country. It's apart of the Assembly of Nations and a member of the Egalian Union, joining it in 2012. [3]
Etymology
The origin of the word Audrēja is still unclear. It likely comes from the Old Audrinean root aud- ("to grow") and the suffix -rēja, meaning "place." [4] It originally described a fertile area known for fast-growing vegetation, especially willows. Early forms like Audereia and Awdreja reflect historical Veltic and Egalian influence. [5]

Main article: History of Audrinea
At around 4000 BCE, the Proto-Egalic ancestors of the Audrinean people settled on the banks of river Vis (Audrinean: Vyss upe, Висс упе). [4] The Egals established trade routes to Western Uletha, trading local resources for precious metals. [7] By early 5th century CE, three tribes inhabited what's now Audrinea: Jiusers, Ryans and Silenians (in Audrinean: Jyuseri, Јюсери; Rudzāti, Рудзāти; Sileni, Силени), aswell as the Nordic tribe of Virmetsians (virmeci, вирмеци). [8]
In early 9th century, many principalities and kingdoms emerged with their rulers, such as Jiuseria, Akminava and more.
Medieval period
Since the local people had contact with the outside world for centuries, the area became more fully integrated into the Ulethan socio-political system in the 9th century, marking the start of the Middle ages in Audrinea. [9] By the end of 9th century, Visvaldis the Great (Visvaldis Lelais) controlled the area between Rētava and Vis' Rivers. [10] The place he controlled, was called the Principality of Jiuseria, and it ruled the area until Visvaldis' death in 1010. [10][11] The last fully Audrinean state before the Union with UL14f (Audreatic Union (Audrinean: Audrējis savīneiba, Аудрējис савīнеиба)), was the Kingdom of Silenia (1032–?). [12]
Kingdom and the Union
According to "Dāveda hronika" (David's Chronicle) made by David of Zitje Visvaldis' great grandson Juons proclaimed himself as the king of the Kingdom of all Audrines in 1233. [13] During his rule, the kingdom reached its peak size of approximately 50 thousand km². [14] The Kingdom was often in war with other tribes and kingdoms, gradually decreasing in size throughout time.
After King Juons the 2nd death in 1364, his wife Maria the Beautiful (Marija Skaistuo) married Soyean king Valts, unifying the kingdoms of KoA (Kdm. of all Audrines) and KoS (Kdm. of Soye) into the Audreatic Union in 1365. [15] During the First Audreatic War (Pyrmais Audrējas kars) (1455–1472), most of the territory of current-day Audrinea was occupied by Dolic troops...
