Gladomyr

Gladomyr, (Myrish: Glaadomür) known formally as the Unified Kingdoms of Gladomyr, (Myrish: Foorentė Kongėdömer aav Glaadomür) is a nation located in northeastern Alutra. Covering a total of 351,707.13 square kilometers (135,794.88 square miles), it lies against the Bay of Edury, Sedic Sea, and North Locuafaric Sea across its eastern and northern borders, and the Penguinnes hugging its west. It borders Edury to its west and Ordrey to the south. It is a 	Federal parliamentary elective constitutional monarchy. The legislature, the Lovgivende Forsamling, consists of a lower house, Nedre Hus, an upper house, Öövre Hus, and a monarch ("Monark", literally "monarch"), who serves as the largely ceremonial head of state, but with some important powers and duties. The Head of Government is the Minister General, who is elected by the Nedre Hus and appointed by the monarch; the Minister General, in turn, appoints other governmental leaders.

The territory of present-day Gladomyr has been inhabited for many centuries beforehand, including the Sedic and Ordrish. The first Myrs who came to inhabit Gladomyr originated in Galvia, who traveled eastwards in search of religious conquest. By 100 CE, the foundations of many contemporary cities and towns had been constructed; however, Salian interest in the soil had slowed the growth of the Myrish culture in the 11th century as more colonies and settlements were made along the eastern Myrish coast. The Salian language soon dominated manyh royal and governmental houses and the Myrish language and culture was only mainly used by peasants and lower-class populations. The foundations for the idea of a Myrish Union had originally formed some time in the 12th century, and following several peasant revolts, the Myrish language and culture grew increasingly prominent once again. The Myrish unification later formed from an idea of nationalism and the rise of Myrish culture and art. Following a war against Salia which pushed them out of the territory of Gladomyr, Gladomyr finally united in 1345 under the watchful eye of Urmas Tog-Kangro - the former Minister General of the Kingdom of Pärhula. Kangro is seen as the founder of Gladomyr and is therefore widely regarded as a national hero. The victory against Salia was a great success, and by the 15th century, Gladomyr would grow to become a regional power, reaching its political and cultural height by the 16th century, known as the Myrish New Dawn. Basking in its new wealth, many colonies and expeditions were commissioned and set out all across the globe, establishing several colonies upon several continents. A great famine following these years of triumph would result in protests nationwide, as well as a mass exodus to one of Gladomyr's colonies Koranel. Gladomyr was involved largely in all three world wars, having been invaded by Salia in 1941 during the beginnings of the Second World War. Though pyrrhic, Salia would inevitably come to win the invasion - splitting Gladomyr into South Gladomyr and North Gladomyr. While North Gladomyr was still governed by Myrs with Myrish interests, its power was significantly limited by Salia through several treaties. South Gladomyr was administrated by both Salia and Myrs with Salian interests, and with a strong military, threatened to take over North Gladomyr should the country step out of line. During the start of the Third World War and Operation Maeve, Salian administrators of South Gladomyr would flee, with much of the military following close behind. This would result inevitably in North and South Gladomyr uniting once again. While Gladomyr was not as involved in the Third World War as previous wars, its reputation rose with its rebuilding efforts.

As of 2021, Gladomyr is officially considered a developed nation with a high-income economy and a very high Human Development Index. Myrs enjoy and tuition-free secondary education. Gladomyr is ranked highly on its education system and is one of the most visited countries in Alutra, drawing in 21.4 million tourists into the country in 2018, with such attractions being the Flot Torg, Kerambrun Plains, Mt. Kornigel, Masoram, and more. Gladomyr's history includes significant contributions to the, , , , , , and other highly influential subjects which still impact the world today.

Gladomyr's cultural, historical, academic, and international prominence classify it as a in global affairs, maintaining large influence and international recognition across the globe.

Etymology
The 'Myr' in Gladomyr stems from the historical association with the Proto-Myrs, who had claimed, raided, and settled the land just after the collapse of the Sedic Confederacy. The name 'Myr' itself has unknown origins, the name first being recorded in 90 CE. While the obvious answer would be the origination from the word myr meaning swamp in Myrish, this claim is disputed. The rest of the word comes from the Myrish word 'Glad', meaning fortress or home.

The earliest traced use of the name Gladomyr roots from a poem dating back to 1238. The poem recorded speaking about the home of the Myrs, in the area just north of Ordrey. The poem also speaks about the savage men who lived there, as well as the cold harsh climates, in particular the amount of rainfall, the incredible winds, and the mountainous landscape creating rain in its middle plains.

Prehistory and antiquity
During the last glacial period, and until about 10,000 BC, most of Gladomyr was periodically covered in ice. During the last glacial period, and until about 10,000 BC, most of Gladomyr was periodically covered in ice. Until recently, the earliest evidence of human activity in Gladomyr was dated at 12,500 years ago, demonstrated by a butchered bear bone found in a cave in Aatemia. Since 2021, the earliest evidence of human activity in Gladomyr is dated to 33,000 years ago.

Early settlers of Gladomyr likely arrived through the south via the Vösalu Pass, and settled within the central plains. Peoples have been identified living in nearly all parts of Gladomyr, including along the eastern Penguinnes and around the Mornaer Sea in the north. The unique terrain in this area resulted in a light population across the landmass, with difficult-to-pass mountains and other hills making migration hard for early humans. This further led to the early Myrish culture, also known as the Lusel Peoples, being largely isolated from the outside world.

Some time before 4000 BC, Neolithic settlers introduced cereal cultivars, domesticated animals such as cattle and sheep, large timber buildings, and stone monuments. The earliest evidence for farming in Gladomyr is from Soogsla Cove, Letakia, where a flint knife, cattle bones and a sheep's tooth were carbon-dated to c. 4350 BC. Field systems were developed in different parts of Gladomyr, including at the Egerstrand Fields, that has been preserved beneath a blanket of peat near present-day Groenhout. An extensive field system, arguably the oldest in its region, consisted of small divisions separated by dry-stone walls. The fields were farmed for several centuries between 3500 BC and 3000 BC. Wheat and barley were the primary crops.

The Bronze Age began around 2500 BC, with technology changing people's everyday lives during this period through innovations such as the wheel; training and harnessing oxen; weaving textiles; brewing alcohol; and skillful metalworking, which produced new weapons and tools, along with fine gold decoration and jewelry, such as brooches and torcs.

Emergence of Sedic Gladomyr
When exactly present-day Gladomyr became part of the Sedic Confederacy is largely unknown, however it can be inferred that the lands were claimed and settled some time after 240 BCE. The more advanced Sedic culture brought many things to the less-technologically advanced Lusel culture, including new livestock and other crops. What was also brought was the Sedic culture and language, which was taken up by the Lusel people and was also spoken by the settlers from the south. These new Sedic settlers lived along the coast near present-day Arvidon, as well as the central plains along the many rivers occupying the land.

Gladomyr in the late bronze age was part of a trade-route across Alutra, known today as the Pan-Alutran Trade Route. The route led through the Vösalu Pass, and was often used as a resting point in-between destinations. This led to the rudimentary start of present-day Vösalu. The route also included nations like present-day Lathadu, Ordrey, Edury, Ecoralia, and more. Gladomyr, then known only as an extension of Ordrey, or "The Ordreys", harbored a large and long-standing community of Sedic culture.

The Lusel culture and language was largely gone by the time the Sedic confederacy collapsed, however the culture has been proven to exist until 200 CE.

Although scattered movements to Gladomyr occurred prior to the collapse of the Sedic Confederady, migrations to the Myrish plains increased tenfold by the brink of its collapse. Though the reasoning for these migrations varied wildly, a lot of the movement was as a result of religious conquest. A majority of those who now inhabit Gladomyr are able to trace their roots to a people group who once inhabited a region near the Virsa River in Galvia, with customs, language, and religion all stemming from this one particular people dubbed Proto-Myrs. In [religion], it is stated that the rolling plains of the east will carry salvation, with the song of Tuotonen giving all who hear his song great fortune and ever-lasting peace. Though a majority of Proto-Myrs, who migrated in a staggered pattern, ended their journey in Gladomyr, some others settled in parts of Edury, Ordrey, and parts of Ecoralia. One of the most prominent groups of Myrs who have settled abroad are the Jööru, who inhabit much of eastern Edury and western Gladomyr and speak a unique Myric language. Dincuff was founded in 50 BCE by Proto-Myrs along the Dene River. The population of Myrs in Gladomyr had grown significantly since the initial settlings of the territory, and interbreeding with the native Sedic and Lusel culture, the Myrs soon taking over as the predominant ethnicity.

Middle ages to early modern period
At this time, some of the major materials which originated from Gladomyr and were spread elsewhere in Alutra were furs, slaves, castoreum, and falcons to Alutran courts. Products imported to Gladomyr included silk among other fabrics, jewelry, swords, and, to a lesser extent, glass. The production of iron started approximately in 500 CE. By the end of the ninth century, indigenous artifact culture, especially jewelry and weapons, had more common local features than prior. This is believed to be expressing a common Myrish identity which was born from an image of common origin.

Several dialects and denominations of Myrish languages would form all throughout the region of Gladomyr, either resulting from isolation or from separate voyages to the Alutran plains which occurred throughout a staggered period of time. The most common Myrish language, aptly dubbed Common Myrish, arose in the Myrish plains some 2000 years ago, and the dialects from which the modern-day Myrish language was developed came into existence during the Iron Age. Although distantly related, the Jööru retained the hunter-gatherer lifestyle longer than the Myrs. The Jööru cultural identity and the Jööru language have survived in the western regions of Gladomyr as well as the easternmost hills of Edury, but the Jööru have commonly been displaced or assimilated elsewhere unintentionally.

The middle ages in Gladomyr was defined with the rising and falling of many small, large, or medium individual kingdoms and city-states which dominated the Myrish landscape. Though one people, in-fighting became increasingly common as time went on, population increased, and isolation between settlements grew. Though it wavered by time, Gladomyr was composed of around 40 individual states concurrently. Isolation increased further as former bonds were broken between different petty kingdoms, and several distinguishable people groups formed; most notably the Aati, the Ketola, the Letaka and the Risaavela, each inhabiting different regions of Gladomyr (Aatemia, Ketolia, Letakia, and Risaavelia respectively).

As a result of Salian expansionism in the early 11th century, conflicts with aggravated Salian ships and missionaries would increase exponentially as Salian interests decided that Gladomyr, a semi-Sedic territory and former Sedic Confederacy land, should be conquered. Myrish populations were largely spread out, which subsequently led to multiple Salian colonies being established on the eastern coastal regions of the conglomerate, which also led to Salian languages, religion, and other culture to make its way into Gladomyr. The old capital of Merser was established by Salians at this time. Ayekist missionaries and crusaders would enter Gladomyr during this time, largely wiping out folk and indigenous religions of the area, though this process would take several centuries to come to fruition. Within the 11th and 12th centuries, it became obvious that Gladomyr was a conquered power which was under the reign of Salian interests; however, the territories themselves were still largely governed by Myrs, and all constituencies of Gladomyr had not been directly annexed by Salia. Salian became the dominant language of the nobility, administration, and education; while Myrish was chiefly a language for the peasantry, clergy, and local courts in predominantly Myrish-speaking areas.

Following a series of peasant revolts in the late 1200s and early 1300s, Salian-favored governmental programs would be deposed, and slowly, Myrish became once again prominent within the many kingdoms which made up Gladomyr. The peasant revolt within the Kingdom of Suurduu, the Suurduu Revolt, would become a crucial turning point in the Myrish identity. As the Myrish language became more widespread and common, a surge of Myrish nationalism and unity movements would cause a development of a true Myrish cultural and artistic identity which left Salian settlers and royalty alienated. Though it is unknown who originally spurred the idea, talks of a Myrish unification under one flag were widespread throughout the region in the mid 1300's. Unlike other unification movements, the Myrish unification's key was not to oppress other smaller people groups who lived within the territory as Gladomyr was and is a place of many cultures. Instead, the movement was to say that although the many cultures are different in their own ways, they are all Myrish. The Myrish unification movement was a great success, and notably fit in with lower class and peasant interests, which was uncommon within the time period.

Prior to unification, one of Gladomyr's most prominent states both economically and politically was the Kingdom of Pärhula, which encompassed most of the land within the Myrish central plains, including the contemporary cities of Pärhula, Dincuff, among other large cities. In the late 1340s, then Minister General of Pärhula, Urmas Tog-Kangro, was a strong supporter of the proposed Myrish Unification, and took it upon himself to lead the unification efforts. With the formidable military power of Pärhula, Kangro provoked a fast, decisive war against Salia, which pushed all Salian colonies and settlements out of the territory in an attempt to align all smaller Myrish states behind him. Casualties were high on Salia's side, which was in stark contrast to the Myrs' minimal losses. While the attacks did not exactly surprise Salia, their defeat was still imminent, and in 1345, a treaty was signed which expelled all Salians out of Gladomyr. The Salian defeat also succeeded in bringing all other Myrish states together, and the official Unified Kingdoms of Gladomyr was formed in the same year. In addition, the formerly Salian Akerlandic Archipelago was also annexed by Gladomyr and remains part of Myrish territory to this day. Though victorious in the moment, the war against Salia would sow the seeds for troubled relations between the two political entities for many centuries onwards, even extending into modern day.

Following Gladomyr's main unification, some remote territories still saw a generous amount of autonomy due in part to the nation's size which made it difficult to administrate everything effectively. A number of these autonomous regions were leftovers from before Gladomyr's unification, with a numbers located in the Injils Region of southern Gladomyr, which have many marshes and other inhibiting terrain. Due to the nature of these states, a majority had a government that of s, where because royal, aristocratic and ecclesiastical power was unusually weak or non-existent, local farmers enjoyed a high degree of autonomy. In this context the term 'republic' does not necessarily imply the existence of the apparatus of a formal state, though this did exist in some such communities, but rather simply the absence of effective royal/princely power. Notably, Akerland also experienced a degree of autonomy during this time, however its autonomy was insured by the actual kingdom of Gladomyr, and Akerland remained a vassal of the state. Throughout the early 15th and 16th centuries, Gladomyr made intermittent yet conscientious efforts to reestablish Myrish rule over these states, yet even still some managed to survive even to the 17th century through alliances with outside states.



Myrish Empire
The 16th and 17th centuries of Gladomyr were defined largely by innovations and invention, particularly in sea craft and other maritime technologies. In 1608, multiple discoveries in science and technology would propel Gladomyr into the Myrish New Dawn, named as such for Gladomyr's initial independence being seen as the original dawn. Spanning much of the 17th century, the Myrish Empire grew to become one of the major Alutran seafaring and economic powers, alongside Salia, Ordrey, and Ventora. Science, military, and art (especially painting) were among the most acclaimed in the world. By 1650, the Myrish owned a staggering 16,000 merchant ships. The Myrish Huenarno Company and the Myrish East Vidinan Company established colonies and trading posts all over the world. The Myrish settlement in Koranel began with the founding of Bellard on the southern part of Handelsland in 1638. In Osamia, the Myrish established the Myrish colonial government in Myrish Osamia (now Takjaana), and settled modern day Javria and Sindsad. A Myrish port and trade-city on Asidama would also be established in 1689 on the southern coast of Kuguni. Gladomyr would also colonize the Énqusqan Peninsula and establish Viinkeland in contempoary north Énqusqó.

Viinkeland would inevitably become a point of concern for the Myrish throne as multiple laws across the Kidal region were passed by governments to limit Alutran interference in the region—particularly a law passed by Higher Tar-Dinuu in 1555 which restricted the cities in which Alutrans could own property. This significantly hampered Myrish colonialism and angered the crown. Some Myrs bribed property owners in restricted areas to sell them land, but the property owners faced significant punishment if caught. In 1557, demands for aid by Myrish property owners in the Kidal would completely sway the opinions of the throne and spark calls for direct intervention by Gladomyr. The Second War for the Kidal would officially begin soon after, as Gladomyr unleashed its navy at the anti-Alutrans. Alongside Gladomyr, Ordrey would also take up arms and join the Empire in its conquest.

Three months after the beginning of the war, Gladomyr called for a ceasefire after significantly underestimating the naval strength of its enemies—particularly their superior logistics. Negotiations between the powers began after the ceasefire was agreed upon. Seeking to hinder Higher Tar-Dinuu, the Myrish crown alongside other Alutran powers promised eastern Kidal leaders with independence from the Dinuuens should they win a war against Higher Tar-Dinuu, pushing them out of the eastern Kidal. Having been previously oppressed by the Dinuuens, the leaders were impelled to accept the offer. In 1558, the designated ceasefire concluded and the war continued—this time with heavy firepower from the east. This would result in Gladomyr's success in the war; however, the Alutran powers did not stick true to their promise in the negotiations. This led to many being outraged, and Myrish ships and governmental buildings were destroyed or sabotaged within their ports.

Gladomyr's colony in Koranel would go on to be the Empire's most successful colony, as trade would quickly be established with the Ciqatic Empire in modern-day Riyata. Trade between the two powers increased the wealth of both significantly, and the colony's position close to the opening of the Vatupic Sea turned the colony into a very strategic and international position. Numerous trade cities would also be opened along the Ciqatic Empire's southern coast by Gladomyr, and would remain for several decades onwards. Edury would also briefly establish a lumber colony in Koranel's southeast on Kipoya, though Gladomyr would purchase this land soon after. With several dozen petty kingdoms making up a majority of the Koranelan peninsula prior to Myrish colonization, the Myrs and native Taxic-Koranelans would go on to cooperate between each other to eventually unite the peninsula into one nation in 1704.

During the period of, the empire received 50% of textiles and 80% of silks import from Haksarad, chiefly from its ports acquired during the Coffee Wars.

Many economic historians regard Gladomyr as among the first thoroughly capitalist countries in the world. In early modern East Alutra, it had among the wealthiest trading cities (Hasä) and the first full-time stock exchange. The inventiveness of the traders led to insurance and retirement funds as well as phenomena such as the boom-bust cycle, and the world's first asset-inflation bubble. In 1787, Gladomyr and Ordrey signed an agreement outlying areas of influence in Takjaana, splitting the region west and east. Out of desperation, the states in the west of Takjaana forcefully dissolved the Ovttastuvvan, perceiving it as a tool of the Alutrans to exert control over the Osamian continent. The Myrish port of Cirsa was attacked by Sindish and Suvlan forces in 1796. While the city was successfully taken, a Myrish force arrived 2 months after and retook the port, as well as the rest of Suvla and Sindsad, establishing Myrish Osamia. This period marked the end of any independent Takjaan nation, and the beginning of Alutran dominance over the nation.

In 1789, a diplomatic crisis would occur in the Kingdom of Taxata, known as the Taxic Expulsion Crisis. Following Taxata's expulsion of Myrish merchants from Citana - A Myrish trade city - !King was assassinated by anti-Myrish radicals in 1787. !King's son, !King, would rise to the throne following this, though he would be less friendly to Myrish merchants. The situation would come to a head in early 1789, as Taxic officials siezed and razed multitudes of Myrish warehouses and ships within the trade city — expelling all Myrish foreigners from the country, with a majority fleeing to Koranel. The act would not be taken kindly by Gladomyr, who took the actions as a direct breach of treaty, which eventually led to Gladomyr invading and occupying trade cities Citana and Qinaga in November of the same year. Gladomyr would come out victorious, and !King was forced to accept to all Myrish demands, reaffirming Citana and Qinaga's statuses as treaty ports.

Shortly after the Taxic Expulsion crisis, a famine would begin to spread across east Alutra, being particularly harsh around Gladomyr's central plains — the nation's breadbasket. The famine would lead to extreme poverty and starvation within the Empire, and can be partially to blame due to improper farming techniques and overfeeding of cattle, though it was soon revealed that the royal family, particularly King Harkon VI, had been hoarding exorbitant amounts of food throughout the famine, refusing to give food to the lower classes of the empire. With citizens disgruntled and starving, a large portion, approximately 1/5 of the population, would move to Koranel, forming one of the largest mass exoduses in Alutran history. The exodus would also unintentionally grant Koranel more autonomy than prior to the famine with the much larger population.

As the hoarding of food by the royalty soon became clear and protesting grew in size, Harkon VI would begin to members of the public who were seen as "exceptionally troublesome" to the royal family. Unrest grew within the empire, and culminated in December of 1800, when protesters would overthrow the monarch guards and breach the Flot Torg, capturing Harkon VI as he slept and executing him in his bed. The Common Revolution, as it came to be known, would spell the end of the Myrish Empire, as the intermittent government put an end to the empirical regime. Though the famine would not end instantly after the revolution, food hoarded by the monarchy would be handed out to the starving for months to come, slowly helping the populace of Gladomyr recover from the devastating famine and drought.



19th century
As the Myrish famine came to an end by mid-1801 and the Myrish economy began to slowly recover afterwards, the government initiated several transport programs, copying those of neighboring nations of Ordrey and Lathadu. and their respective tracks began rapid construction all across the nation, and linked up with those of neighboring countries as well. The new opportunities for trade and transport created a massive boom within the Myrish economy, skyrocketing it up from its previous destitution of the late 18th century. Gladomyr took more cues from Ordrey and began to industrialize rapidly with its newfound wealth, and Dincuff quickly became the largest growing city in the nation. The industrialization of the early 19th century also spread to the kingdom's colonies, particularly to Koranel.

Though the industrialization of Gladomyr was massively successful for the nation, some rural areas were unhappy about the new way of life being imposed upon them and their way of life. Villages in the nation's south and northwest were particularly vehement against industrialization, and began to revolt in scattered villages and cities. A large portion of revolters were also railworkers who had gone on strike against the rapid and overwhelming railway expansion with meager pay. The protesting would eventually reach its way back to the streets of Dincuff, and yet another revolution was attempted by the anti-industrialists in 1840. The revolution would end up succeeding, called the First Revolution and the monarchy was temporarily paralyzed as the revolters gained power over the nation, though brief. Pro-industrialists would soon revolt themselves, and them along with a large portion of the Myrish Royal Army would conduct a secondary revolution against the anti-inustralists. The revolution would last 2 days before the walls were once again breached, and the monarchy would be reestablished soon after, the secondary revolution becoming aptly known as the Second Revolution. The monarchy would indeed increase benefits for railworkers once reinstated, leading the country into its modern-day socialistic ideals. Though troublesome in the short-term, the two revolutions would in-fact spur an era of increased interconnectedness and strength amongst many regions of the nation, as lower-classes, middle-classes, and upper-classes all agreed on a common cause. The industrialization of Gladomyr would increase even further due to this, and Gladomyr would take its place as the fastest industrializing nation in the world from 1850-1856.

The latter half of the 19th century saw a strong cultural and social revival throughout the Empire, as well as a sizable liberal movement. These developments persuaded King Ruuben II to agree to liberal and democratic reform. The new constitution was proclaimed on 3 November 1858. It severely limited the king's and the rest of the Council of Lords' powers, making the government accountable only to an elected parliament. This protected civil liberties in Gladomyr. The new liberal constitution, which put the government under the control of the Minister General, was accepted by the legislature in 1858—a piece of law revived from the 16th century. The relationship between monarch, government and parliament has remained essentially unchanged ever since. In fact, the current Constitution of Gladomyr is the 1858 Constitution, albeit with numerous amendments.

Geography
Gladomyr covers an administrative area of 351,707.13 km2 (135,749.88 sq mi), with approximately 346,080 km2 (133,622 sq mi) of the country's territory consisting of land, 5,627 km2 (2,172 sq mi) comprises internal waters. Topographically, the landscape of Gladomyr is characterized by diverse landforms, water bodies and ecosystems. The central and eastern region bordering the Salian Sea lie within the flat Central Myrish Plain, but its south, west, and north are hilly and mountainous. The average elevation above sea level is estimated at 273 meters. Gladomyr's location at the northeast tip of Alutra has bestowed it the nickname of the "Horn of Alutra".

The country's mainland has a coastline spanning 1,626 km (1,010 mi); wrapping around the country from the border with Ordrey in the southeast to the Bay of Edury in the northwest. The beach coastline is abundant in sand dune fields or coastal ridges and is indented by spits and lagoons, the most notable of which being Puusorav in Puusorav National Park. The largest Alutran Myrish island is Memetsöü, located within the Akerlandic Archipelago, while the largest island outside of Alutra is King Peteri VII Island, located within the Myrish Arctic Territories. Gladomyr shares an uninhabited island with Ordrey, that being Sokopik Island, only 1 km2 in size.

The mountainous belt in the south, north, and west of Gladomyr is divided into two major mountain ranges; the Penguinnes in the south and west and the Merikurands in the north, the former of which being the more extreme of the two. The highest part of the Merikurands massif are the Kaansa Mountains, extending along Gladomyr's the coastline of Gladomyr's inland lake. Gladomyr's highest point is the Masoram at 3,001 meters (9,845 ft) in elevation, located in the southern Penguinnes. The lowest point in Gladomyr is situated at Asikanen Poeng in the Dene Delta, which is 1.8 meters (5.9 ft) below sea level.

Gladomyr's longest rivers are the Kalorekola, the Saantu, the Kauko, and the Dene. The country also possesses one of the highest densities of lakes in the world, numbering around ten thousand and mostly concentrated in the south-eastern region of the nation, within the Lake District. The lakes are due to Gladomyr's position in the north of Alutra, and the many glaciers which once covered the country during the previous ice age. The largest lake, covering more than 100 square kilometers (39 sq mi), is the Mornaer Sea, and the deepest is Lake Soini at 108.5 meters (356 ft) in depth.

In addition to its mainland territory, Gladomyr also owns land within the arctic territory, namely two islands, one uninhabited and one permanently inhabited by ~10-30 scientists at any given period in time. Gladomyr also owns territory on the Vorghys itself, and owns a portion of the Osterholt Station. The nation also owns the island of Skira, an isolated, small landmass approximately 2,350 kilometers away from the landmass, which only hosts a military base with a seasonal population ranging from 5-40 personnel.

The Föörstėliik, also simply called the King, Queen, or just monarch, is the head representative of the Council of Lords and is elected by the Öövre Hus. The Föörstėliik holds more power than the rest of the Council of Lords once elected and holds the title until their death or resignation. Kalju I of Letakia is the current Föörstėliik, and also holds the title of king in the nation of Koranel, where he is instead the sole head of state. All responsibilities not granted to the national government are reserved to the individual kingdoms. Each representative of the council of lords is also designated as monarch of their own individual kingdom, including the Föörstėliik; however, the Föörstėliik often employs a representative who unofficially manages the duties of the Föörstėliik's home kingdom. Additionally, a percentage of revenues from each kingdom is allocated to Gladomyr's central budget. The head of government of Gladomyr is the Minister General, currently Klemeti Niisen. The Minister General is appointed by the parliament.

The Myrish political system operates under a framework laid out in the 1858 constitution known as the Prinsiipenė for Kongėdömer (Principles for the Kingdoms). Amendments generally require a two-thirds majority of both the Öövre Hus and the Nedre Hus; the fundamental principles of the constitution, as expressed in the articles guaranteeing human dignity, the separation of powers, the federal structure, and the rule of law, are valid in perpetuity. Since 1954, the party system has been dominated by the Ensemble! and the National Progressive Party. Since the reunification, every Minister General has been a member of one of these parties; however, the smaller Noyonist and the Agrarian Party have also been junior partners in coalition governments. Since 2007, the Democratic Social Capitalist Party has been a staple in the Öövre Hus, though they have never been part of the federal government. In the 2014 Myrish federal election, the right-wing populist Myrish Party gained enough votes to attain representation in the parliament for the first time.
