Platina, officially the Platine Republic (Castellanese: República Platina, pronunciation: [reˈpuβlika plaˈtina]), is a country in West Uletha and member state of the Liberan Union. It is situated on the central portion of the Liberan Island at the crossroads of the regional ranges. Platina is bordered by Alvorán to the northwest, Jarcón to the northeast, Martani to the southeast and Xatãera to the southwest. Its twenty-three provinces cover a total area of 138,094 square kilometers (53,631 square miles) and have an estimated population of X.X million. Montedorado is the nation’s capital, while its largest city is Santa Cruz; other major cities include Lutos de la Santa Inquisición, Flamaria and Borgoña.

Platina has been at the crossroads of numerous cultures and civilizations for millennia, including the Tasetians, Hellenesians, Romantish and Mazanics. Its modern identity is rooted in a 13th-century crusade led by the Order of the Holy Cross, founded in northeastern Castellán, who seized control of the modern Platina and Alvorán by expulsing the Mazanic colonizers from the region and getting administrative control of the territory through an agreement with Ulethan powers, sponsored by the Pope, in the aftermath of the crusade. The Order permanently moved to Platina and then established settlements with church-leased agricultural lands for Mesembric tribes to migrate there, creating a prosperous economy which eventually expanded to the extractive industry, and a Castellanese-inspired common culture.

Following numerous independentist movements throughout the region which inspired the separation of Alvorán in the early 19th century, the Order supported political reforms that created a secular and democratically-elected government under a parliamentary system. By retaining its prominent role in numerous enterprises involving the industry and service sector, the Order was fundamentally responsible for turning Platina into an economic stronghold in the region that has recently diversified into the tech services market.
