Pelinai (Pelinese Hinomoto: ペリナイ, Karnetvorian: Пелинай), officially the Kingdom of Pelinai (Pelinese Hinomoto: ペリナイ王国, Karnetvorian: Королевство Пелинай) is a small state located in the South Pacific, on the southeasternmost peninsula of the continent Bailtem. It is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea on its west, the Eastern Ocean to its east, and the Golden Strait separating continental Pelinai and the island of Zholtiya Zemla. It possesses a humid subtropical climate in the coastal regions of continental Pelinai and on Zholtiya Zemla, as well as humid subtropical highland and alpine climates in its interior. The Pelinese state encompasses a total area of 80,746km2 and an estimated population of 54.342 million (estimated 2022). The Kingdom of Pelinai is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a ceremonial monarch and an independent, democratically elected civilian government headed by the Pelinese State Parliament. The Kingdom of Pelinai is composed of four prefectures, each of which maintain a measure of autonomy in domestic affairs and elect ministers of parliament to represent them in the Pelinese State Parliament: Korolyeviya Prefecture, covering most of Pelinai’s eastern coast, Letograd Prefecture, which encompasses the southernmost areas of continental Pelinai, Zholtograd Prefecture, which covers the island of Zholtiya Zemla, and the capital state of Pelograd Prefecture on the Mediterranean coast.
Etymology
The Kingdom of Pelinai derives its name from its patron saint and founder, Saint Pelinai, who founded the Pelinayaka Orthodox Christian denomination and was the primary driving force encouraging Reizener exiles’ settlement of the territory that would later be incorporated into the modern Pelinese nation.
