Midrasia, officially the Kingdom of Midrasia (Midrasian: Reialme de Mydrazia) is a Constitutional Monarchy in western Asura that includes overseas regions and territories. Metropolitan Midrasia borders the nations of Valenworld, Jaiross, Marhemia, Caromelia, Avomatt and The Alydian State. Midrasia is the only nation in Asura, other than Delsola to have both a coastline on the Opal Ocean and in the Centrélseia. The nation has a largely temperate seasonal climate, with higher temperatures in the south of the country for the vast majority of the year. Midrasia is a Constitutional Monarchy with an elected parliamentary system, with its capital in Thraice, the nation's largest city and main cultural and commercial center. With a population of 85 million, Midrasia is one of the largest nations in Asura, after Stovilium and Delsola. The nation is a founding member of The Federal Union back in 1952 and a leading economic power within the region.
Since ancient times, Thraician, Mydrollian and other cultures have flourished in the territory of present-day Midrasia, being eventually absorbed by Hearthuria, that has for centuries remained the leading political and religious centre of Western civilisation, capital of the Hearthurian Empire and Alydism. During the Dark Ages, Midrasia faced calamitous invasions by barbarian tribes, but beginning around the 10th century, numerous Midrasian kingdoms rose to great prosperity through conquest, the vast resources available in the area and shipping from Pandyssia. Midrasia has been a major power in Europe since the Late Middle Ages, with its victory in the War of the White Summer (1421 to 1472), uniting the Midrasian Kingdoms and strengthening nationalism, paving the way for a future centralized monarchy. During the Renaissance, Midrasia experienced a vast cultural development and established the first steps of a worldwide colonial empire.
