Koria

Koria (pronounced "Core-eye-ah"), officially the Republic of Koria, is a country and sovereign state in the Korian Union. Koria is the southernmost country in the world, taking up most of Soutbar, located near South America and Antarctica.

Indigenous people settled in the region as long as 12,000 years ago. The region was split into two kingdoms, Quoni and Ping. The Mongican Republic colonized the region as Bejica in the early-19th century. The British Empire colonized the region around 1823, starting a war between the British Empire against the Mongican Republic, which ended with the reformation of the Mongican territory of Bejica in 1825. A group of native republican Bejicans known as the Lacoust started a protest for independence, causing the Mongican Republic to hold a referendum on whether Bejica should become independent in 1826, and 46% voted for independence.
