Doubeia, officially The Federal Doubeinese Republic, is a country located in central Esportiva. The Doubeinese territory is separated by the Strait of Doubeia into two sections: East Doubeia, and West Doubeia. Doubeia borders Kita-Hinode to its east, and Nekoni to its west. Doubeia does not share any land borders with any sovereign nation to its south. Doubeia has a population of 86 million which is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. As a federal republic, Doubeia consists of 10 states and 10 territories, making up a total of 20 federal units. The capital, Queensland, is located on along the northern coast of East Doubeia.
Doubeia sits on traditionally uninhabited territory. The roots of modern-day Doubeia lay in the settlement of New Tvoygrad (current-day Queensland) by colonisers from Twicetagria. East Doubeia was settled by Twicetagrien colonists, while West Doubeia was populated due to a resettlement scheme promulgated by the government then. Doubeia prematurely gained independence after Twicetagria fell into anarchy. The early Doubeinese post-colonial period was marked with steady economical growth and a rising population. The early Doubeinese economy was led by the agricultural sector, and the nation's GDP nominal increased by more than 300% within the next century. Doubeia's increasing prosperity was interrupted by the Doubeinese Revolution from 634 to 638 when the ruling government was overthrown and Doubeia became an anarchist society. This did not last long, as many autocratic regimes were set up and overthrown regularly for the next three centuries in the period known as the Doubeinese Dark Ages. The Doubeinese economy was at an all-time low during the period as political and societal instability led to the boom in criminal activity in Doubeia. The Dark Ages culminated when the Doubeinese Civil War broke out between government and civilian factions. The end of the civil war, won by the civilian faction, marked the end of the Doubeinese Dark Ages. The new era of political and economic recovery and reshaping led to the reformation of Doubeia as a federal democratic republic.
Doubeia is marked by a high level of personal freedom, and its strengthening economy and industrialisation has caused it to be recognised as a potential regional power. Additionally, Doubeia hosts a wide variety of natural biospheres as well as manmade attractions, making it a popular tourist destination in Esportiva. However, there is a low level of political freedom and freedom of press, with state-owned corporations monopolising Doubeian media. Doubeia, although a democracy, has been ruled by the same party for over a century. Doubeia also faces serious crime and corruption, with crime syndicates running rampant nationwide. The Doubeinese economy is centred around the tourism and industrial sectors, with Doubeia being a major exporter in biochemical goods. Doubeia is a prospective member of the World Assembly and the Esportivan Union.
Etymology
The historical name of Doubeia, New Tvoygrad, was derived from the Twicetagrien endonym for its capital Twice Square. The origins of "Doubeia" is disputed with no known records of the name in any historical annals before the Doubeinese Revolution. Many folk etymologies of Doubeia have arisen, but the most popular and probable one is that it derives from the Johnshin Impact character Doubei. The leader who enacted the rule change, Yohan Tsyganov, was known to be an avid Johnshin Impact player who reportedly had an obsession for Doubei.
History
Prehistory
Doubeia is known to have been uninhabited by any human civilisation before the arrival of the Twicetagriens. No remains of human bodies or inventions is found anywhere in eastern Doubeia. While human bones and several tools have been found in many places across western Doubeia, they all point to ancient nomadic civilisations that did not settle down in modern-day Doubeia. Nevertheless, there have been recent archaeological findings that suggest that the southern portion of western Doubeia may have been permanently inhabited by a human civilisation some four thousand years before the Modern Era, although they have been challenged.
Colonial Era (before 234)
The first records of foreign footfall onto Doubeia was in 4 BME (Before Modern Era), when Twicetagrien explorer Ivan Antonovich landed in modern-day Queensland, then known as New Tvoygrad. Twicetagria was known to possess inter-regional transportation methods, thus it was able to make the distance between Atlantean Oceania and Esportiva in a relatively short period of time. While Twicetagria was known to have claimed New Tvoygrad as Twicetagrien territory since 4 BME, it was not until 0 ME that it became an official subdivision under Twicetagria as the New Tvoygrad Territory. As more Twicetagriens, mostly rural farmers, moved to New Tvoygrad with the promise of vast arable land, New Tvoygrad expanded its borders until the modern-day compounds of eastern Doubeia. However, New Tvoygrad was sparsely populated despite its vast size, and most of its population was concentrated in New Tvoygrad proper. Soon, New Tvoygrad would experience the issue of overpopulation, and this would prompt the colonial government to move residents to other settlements such as Antonovsk, Vechnoslava, and Lasinyorodar. Land ownership was encouraged by the colonial government, and resettlement schemes in mainland Twicetagria were set up to attract Twicetagriens to settle in New Tvoygrad. By the end of the second sentury ME, the New Tvoygrad Territory had a total population of 3.2 million people, with approximately half of the populace living in New Tvoygrad proper.
While many records, physical and digital, dating to this era have been destroyed or lost since, there exists a Tvoygrad Archive in the Queensland National Library, where annals from the colonial era are preserved and contained in a restricted-access zone.
Early post-colonial era (234-634)
New Tvoygrad gained independence from Twicetagria after the latter's fall. Immediately New Tvoygrad was met with a refugee crisis, where the sheer number of incoming Twicetagrien migrants fleeing the situation in Twicetagria overwhelmed the infrastructure in New Tvoygrad. Cities across the territory saw their populations shoot up as the population disparity between Twicetagria and New Tvoygrad meant New Tvoygrad did not have the necessary infrastructure to house the millions of refugees. As the situation led to some unrest in the newborn nation, the New Tvoygrad government implemented a resettlement scheme where New Tvoygradians were incentivised to establish more communities in the vast New Tvoygrad territory, especially since settlements were few and far in between then. Within the next century, as many as 50 towns were founded, with Uyedinyonnorsk and Yablonyayevo becoming fully-fledged cities. Eventually, the Euthymian Islands to the south of the New Tvoygrad Territory would also be populated under the resettlement scheme.
