Waldzenia (Waltch: Valthzenjia), officially the Waltch Vanguard State (Waltch: Valthzer-Avantrupstaat), also called the Waltch Socialist Republic (Valthzer Sozialisctich-Republik) in some circles, is a unitary, one-party parliamentary republic which occupies the entire of the continent of Idreiga in the far north of the Pluviostan region. It includes 12 constituent commissariats, 7 autonomous cities, and 1 capital district, covers 9,348,769 square kilometers, and has a widely varied but largely cool, wet, temperate climate. It has approximately 343,931,650 inhabitants, most heavily concentrated in the southern half of the continent and along the Richter Waterway. Waldzenia's capital is the city of Aszensioun, while its largest metropolis is the city of Vivijana; its largest conurbation is the Viktoriakyst along the western coast of the Austragia Commissariat, revolving around the coastal cities of Viktoria (the nation's second largest city), Zurin, and Hannes. Other major cities include Superior, the largest city on the north coast; Lorelei, the largest city on the west coast; and Venau, the largest city on the east coast.

A mass migration of Volthic tribes occurred in the Middle Classical period, believed to have originated from northern[[Thedosia]] due to both population pressures and encroachment by Thedosian war parties. These tribes arrived in the peninsula of Austragia around 200 CE and expanded from there, pushing out the native Nequisebi people. Beginning in the 6th century, these tribes unified into a plethora of petty kingdoms  which would wage war against the the Thedosians in the 8th century during the [[Elder Crusades]]. Following the death of several prominent lords, the kingdoms were united into the First Volthic Empire by Emperor Godric the Great. The continent of Idreiga would remain in a constant state of flux as kingdoms rose and fell throughout the Middle Ages and the Waldzers pushed deeper into the continent, displacing the Nequisebi and forcing them to adopt Waltch customs. During the 16th century, a vast majority of the Waltch-speaking areas of the continent (primarily in the south and west) were united under the Second (or Great) Volthic Empire, only for the empire to fall to a republican rebellion a mere two centuries later, giving rise to constitutional monarchy of the Waltch Dominion.

In the early 1900s, corruption, isolationism, and ethnic strife were taking a heavy toll on the empire, culminating in the Verimatszi Wars, a civil war stretching from 1934 to 1956 and covering virtually the entire continent in some way. The original government was overtaken on July 8th, 1938, in what would be called the July Coup (or simply J8 (yah-acht), by the National Vanguard Party, which implemented a totalitarian, one-party socialist state and went on to defeat factions led by communist, monarchist, and ethnic elements, unifying all of Idreiga into a single state under the banner of Vanguardist ideology. The original government, styling itself the Fourth Waltch Empire, fled to the island of Alyscia in exile. Since then, the National Vanguard Party has crafted an intricate, efficient state based around the principles of technocracy\meritocracy, civic nationalism, trade unionism, and state capitalism.

Etymology

The word "Valthzenjia" is believed to link to the Proto-Valdzic words "walts" ("people"), and "ghyem" ("winter"), vaguely translating to "people of winter", and this is also where it is believed the word "Waldzer" stems from. The English translation, "Waldzenia", is simply an Anglicization of the Waltch word. The "luminous" part of its official title is in fact an approximate translation from the Waltch word "valyzant", which is a uniquely Waltch term describing the focusing of the will of the nation into the responsibility of a benevolent autocrat.
