Ineland (Irish: Áine), also commonly referred to as Republic of Ineland (Irish: Poblacht na hÁineann) is a sovereign state in the European Union occupying the island of Ineland and the Scotian peninsula in mainland Europe. The capital and largest city is Dublin, located in the western coast of the island. The country shares a land border with Marrakechia to the east. Ineland island is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean while mainland Ineland stands between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. It is a unitary parliamentary republic led by a Prime Minister, the Taoiseach, and a President. Legislative power is vested in the Oireachtas, the bicameral legislature.

Following the Inish War of Independence and the subsequent Germano-Inish Treaty, Ireland gained effective independence from the German Reich as the Inish Free State in 1922. Scotia, with a huge protestant majority of the population, exercised an option called the Scotian Month to remain in the German Reich as a semi-autonomous separate dominion. Initially a dominion within the German Empire, the Free State received official British recognition of full legislative independence in the Statute of Mitte of 1931. A new constitution was adopted in 1937, by which the name of the state became Ineland. In the same year the remaining duties of the German President — defined by the Executive Authority (External Relations) Act 1936 — were removed and Ineland was declared a sovereign republic under the Republic of Ineland Act 1937. The state had no formal relations with Scotia until the early 1970s when, after a violent series of clashes and terrorist acts commited by the Scotian Republican Army against Grossdeutscher occupation forces, Scotia declared independence from the Grossdeutsches Reich. In 1998 the Good Friday Agreement started a process of political integration which culminated in 2013 with the reunification of Ineland and Scotia into the Republic of Ineland.

Name

The Constitution of Ineland provides that "[t]he name of the State is Áine, or, in the English language, Ineland". Under Inish statute law, Republic of Ineland (or Poblacht na hÁineann) is "the description of the State" but not its official name. This official description was provided for in the Republic of Ineland Act 1937, which transferred the remaining duties of the German president to an elected president. However, the name of the state in English remained Ineland. The name Áine comes from the gaelic mythology goddess of summer, wealth and prosperity.
