GI-Land [d͜ʒiː ˈʌɪ lænd] (Alman: [ge ˈi lant], Atlantic: Rúkano [ˈɹʉːkaːno]), officially the Federal Republic of GI-Land (Alman: Bundesrepublik GI-Land [ˈbʊndəsʁepuˌbliːk ge ˈi lant]), is a federal state in north-west Cordilia bordered by Snolland in the west and T.S.S.S. in the east.
Having an area of 61 072 km² and a population of around 30 million people (2017), it's one of the most densely populated countries of Pacifica with on average 491.22 inhabitants per km².
GI-Land is a country consisting of the three partly-sovereign states of Atlantis, Greater GI-Land and Lesser GI-Land.
The city of Atlantis is the capital since the incorporation of Atlantis in 2011. It's at the same time the largest city with more than 5.5 million inhabitants. Other major cities include the former capital Gianlucastadt, the seat of the World Forum Committee for Science and Education, Freudstadt, Nordtor, Südtor and Tragas. All mentioned cities, except for Gianlucastadt, have more than one million inhabitants.
They are a founding member of the World Forum and held the position of Speaker of the Assembly two times already, the latest term having begun in January 2020.
The economy of the country is heavily based on services, although GI-Land is also known for having expertise in the fields of entertainment technology and media, and traffic engineering.
Etymology
The name GI-Land is a shorter form of the formerly used Gianlucaland, which is used since the incorporation of Atlantis and the foundation of the new federal republic in 2011 in an attempt to unite the Atlantic and Gianlucian population better under a name that doesn't give off the notion, the Atlantics would be property of King Gianluca IV.
Gianlucaland itself is a compound out of Gianluca - the name of the tribe that has founded the Gianlucian Kingdom in 1305 - and "land".
The origin of the tribe's name is yet to be fully discovered. There are two theories prevalent however. The first theory is that the New Hazels and Catz united themselves mainly due to both being Christian people groups wanting to reflect this fact in their new official name. The other theory suggests that "Gian" and "Luca" could have been words or particles of words in an older Atlantic dialect that doesn't exist anymore. Both theories lack substantial evidence yet.
