Sohainesia

The Kingdom of Semanesia (Semanesian: Semataw), commonly known as Semanesia, is a sovereign country off the eastern coast of the Indochinese Peninsula. It includes one main island and several smaller islands. It is surrounded by the South China Sea.

Semanesia is a unitary parliamentary democracy and constitutional monarchy. The emperor is Amkim IV, reigning since 2002. Major cities include Brasapuosa, Kiculuma, Tisuramut, Rithak, Pyaekkan, Adiyau, Kenkukhi, Akanemu, Ikturu, Pataibau, and Nuhaloro.

Semanesia was ruled by Vietnam for a long time until France invaded Vietnam and made Semanesia a part of French Indochina. Semanesia was born when France was forced to recognize the independence due to a native uprising in Cochinchina in 1936. In 1962, the military seized power and changed Semanesia to a Marxist-Leninist communist state until 1975. A year later, the monarchy was restored as a constitutional monarchy, and held its first elections.

Semanesia is a developed country, and it is a member of ASEAN, OECD, United Nations, Non-Aligned Movement, World Trade Organization, and International Monetary Fund.

Geography
Semanesia is an island located southwest of Vietnam. It has 4 regions, 26 prefectures, and is part of the Indochinese Peninsula. The main island comprises about 80% of the total land area, measuring 22,327 miles, and is seperated from Vietnam by the Gulf of Thailand.

Geology
The island was seperated from Indochina 1 million years ago, and it is part of the Eurasian plate. Semanesia experiences about 300 earthquakes per year, but only about 16 are noticed by people. The most catastrophic earthquake in terms of fatalities was the magnitude-7.5 earthquake at the western portion of the island, killing 900 people.

Terrain
The terrain is divided into two parts: the heavily mountainous parts in the north, and the flat plains in the south. The north has three mountain ranges, running from southwest to southeast. Mount Savakuu is located in the northern part of the island and is the tallest mountain in the country, at 3023 metres tall. The average elevation is 1042 meters. Indigenous people mostly reside in the mountains as a result of the political violence during the communist era.

Climate
Semanesia's climate is a mix of a humid subtropical climate and a tropical rainforest climate. The rainy season lasts from July to November, the winter season lasts from December to mid-February, and the summer season lasts from mid-April to July.
