In Pretannia there is a mountain range that runs from south to north from the border with Plevia and occupies the center-south of the country. Two large rivers flow: the Pretannia river in the north, navigable, which has an important transport channel; and the other important river to the east bordering Suria. The climate is humid continental (Warm summer subtype) and oceanic throughout the territory, except in the South-West where it is arid. In addition, there is a high mountain climate in the previously mentioned mountain range.

Pretannia is inspired by the central European style, based on Bavaria and Austria in the center-north. The South inspired by the northeastern regions of Italy (Friuli-Venezia Giulia Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol) and the West based on Switzerland. Pretannia is a liberal democracy republic, divided into various regions, and these in turn into provinces. The total population is between 20 million and 25 million inhabitants. Pretannia's economy is based on a large productive industrial sector, a solid financial system, combined with important agricultural areas in the Center-North and viticulture in the South.
 | History & culture |
|---|---|
| A brief description of the intended culture and language |
The history and culture of Pretannia is linked to the Romantian culture, since there are historical archives (Old Wiki) which affirm that the birth of the Romantian Empire was in this country and from there it spread to the south (Current Plevia, Navenna, Mitras, Castellan, etc. ) and to the West (Current Franqueterre & Garlis).Pretannia is also culturally influenced by Slavs and Germans adding cultural richness to the country.
The dominant language in Pretannia is Pretanic (= Rhaeto-Roman language) throughout the country. On the Southern border with Plevia Italian language. In the east, Italo-Slavic languages (Conlangs) predominate and in the capital of the country, Latin (Romantian Language) has remained as a secondary language.

Hello, Kahl. Some notes regarding this territory:
- The northern river should probably remain unnamed for now.
- The imagined canal system also runs through the country's western border all the way from the northern river to the Pretannic Lake. That area should be carefully crafted as it would be an area of collaboration and immense importance to the region and continent.
- I do like the idea of that area to be the home of the Romantian, however the birthplace of it should not be subject to only one country but instead a smaller area in the region. Nevertheless, I am not entirely opposing the idea of having the birthplace of the culture in the area, although personally I think it would be most fitting if that area was on the coastline of the Pretannic Lake, spanning 08m, 08j and the western part of 08k.
Are these points okay with you? Bixelkoven (talk) 09:14, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
