There is also the Cylari Plateau in which the country was formed. The highest mountain is Mt Stratos. The south is composed of hills and rolling plains, and the center is extremely flat. Its coastline is made of white sand, but there is some rocky beaches in which tourists go watching for the Zilais Whale.

'''Spirevo''', officially the '''Republic''', also called the '''United States of Spirevo''', is a country in central Internatia, located in between the Silent Sea and Spirevan Sea and bordered by Oalia and Xhanostania. It has 27 States.


== Name ==
Andorra is a prosperous country formed in 1278, mainly because of its tourism industry, which services an estimated 10.2 million visitors annually, and also because of its chief exports; iron and diamond, the latter is of which Spirevo is the largest exporter of in Internatia.  Also, it is a leading technological force in the world; many technological and medicinal advances are developed in Spirevo. The people of Spirevo have the 4th highest human life expectancy in all of Internatia - 82 years at birth.


The English name Spirevo comes from the nation's national tree, the Cylari Spire, which grows in the heavily wooded areas of the Miroris Mountain range.
==History==


It also comes from the Spirevan name, "Enspirei" which means "Plateau State" leading back to the founding of the country on the Cylari Plateau, by the Cylari tribe.
The nomadic Cylari tribe from what is now known as modern day [[Sibinia]] settled down on what is now the Plateau of Cylari, and set up permanent residence in the high mountainous south of what is now modern Spirevo. As the tribe grew, so did the amount of land used, until the borders became and are still now the borders of Spirevo today. After being invaded by the Kalvon Empire in 1401, Spirevo was plunged into a state of plague and despair, with the Pordunamic Plague wiping out more than 6/17 of the population. When it was released from the clutches of the Empire, the remaining citizens began to rebuild the dark and desolate land and dedicated time to science and technology, forming the basis of Spirevo's main exports and advances today.  


== History ==
===20th century===
Spirevo declared war on Kalvonia during the Great War, and supplied many soldiers to help neighboring Alisoa (now part of Xhanostania) and its allies during the war.


On the 12th of June 1507, the Cylari tribe settled down on what is now the Plateau of Cylari, and set up permanent residence in the high mountainous south of what is now modern Spirevo. As the tribe grew, so did the amount of land used, until the borders became and are still now the borders of Spirevo today. After being invaded by the Kalvon Empire in 1801, Spirevo was plunged into a state of plague and despair, with the Pordunamic Plague wiping out more than 6/17 of the population. When it regained independence in 1815, the remaining citizens began to rebuild the dark and desolate land and dedicated time to science and technology, forming the basis of Spirevo's main exports and advances today. Spirevo used to be a monarchy, with its first King, Daltus, ruling the land with care, allowing progress and was loved by many. When his daughter and heir to the throne, Chloe I, inherited the throne, she ruled with an iron fist and split the working class and upper class to two very different lifestyles. The working class were poor and were badly educated, leading to bad living conditions, while the upper class families leaded lives of luxury. Chloe I was overthrown just 3 years after her coronation and the monarchy was demolished.
In 1954, Spirevo shut its borders to all other countries and remained secretive, causing great suspicion with the other nations of Internatia. This was due to the Prime Minister at that time, Ciaran Lansky, abusing his powers and gradually turning into dictator. He ruled with an iron fist and Spirevo was soon reduced to its knees, leading to one of the worst cases of Hyperinflation in Internatia. After 3 years, a general protest saw his demise as he was arrested and excecuted v.i.a Guillotine a day later. The death penalty has been since banned.


== Geography ==
Given its relative isolation, Spirevo has existed outside the mainstream of Internatian history, with few ties to countries other than Oalia and Sibinia. In recent times, however, its thriving tourist industry along with developments in transport and technology have removed the country from its isolation.


Spirevo is diverse in geography. The north is made up of between the Miroris Mountain range and the Cylari Plateau, and the south is full of rolling hills. The center, called the Senzarissat' (Flat land) is where most settlements are. However, the two largest cities, Zinzolin and Sansails are located in the North and South, respectively.

Spirevo, officially the Republic, also called the United States of Spirevo, is a country in central Internatia, located in between the Silent Sea and Spirevan Sea and bordered by Oalia and Xhanostania. It has 27 States.

Andorra is a prosperous country formed in 1278, mainly because of its tourism industry, which services an estimated 10.2 million visitors annually, and also because of its chief exports; iron and diamond, the latter is of which Spirevo is the largest exporter of in Internatia. Also, it is a leading technological force in the world; many technological and medicinal advances are developed in Spirevo. The people of Spirevo have the 4th highest human life expectancy in all of Internatia - 82 years at birth.

History

The nomadic Cylari tribe from what is now known as modern day Sibinia settled down on what is now the Plateau of Cylari, and set up permanent residence in the high mountainous south of what is now modern Spirevo. As the tribe grew, so did the amount of land used, until the borders became and are still now the borders of Spirevo today. After being invaded by the Kalvon Empire in 1401, Spirevo was plunged into a state of plague and despair, with the Pordunamic Plague wiping out more than 6/17 of the population. When it was released from the clutches of the Empire, the remaining citizens began to rebuild the dark and desolate land and dedicated time to science and technology, forming the basis of Spirevo's main exports and advances today.

20th century

Spirevo declared war on Kalvonia during the Great War, and supplied many soldiers to help neighboring Alisoa (now part of Xhanostania) and its allies during the war.

In 1954, Spirevo shut its borders to all other countries and remained secretive, causing great suspicion with the other nations of Internatia. This was due to the Prime Minister at that time, Ciaran Lansky, abusing his powers and gradually turning into dictator. He ruled with an iron fist and Spirevo was soon reduced to its knees, leading to one of the worst cases of Hyperinflation in Internatia. After 3 years, a general protest saw his demise as he was arrested and excecuted v.i.a Guillotine a day later. The death penalty has been since banned.

Given its relative isolation, Spirevo has existed outside the mainstream of Internatian history, with few ties to countries other than Oalia and Sibinia. In recent times, however, its thriving tourist industry along with developments in transport and technology have removed the country from its isolation.

Climate

Spirevo enjoys a generally temperate climate, experiencing warm summers and mild winters. However, in recent years, summers have gotten hotter and winters more snowy and colder, leading to many problems with traffic and economy routines. The coldest regions are in the mountains, where it is highest. The driest region in in the northeast, where the Lovin desert lies.

Flora and Fauna

The national tree of the country is the Cylari Spire, which grows in the Miroris Mountain Range. The wood is resistant to burning and extremely durable, as well as being relatively common. The tree is the tallest species on the planet and there are times when they have outgrown skyscrapers. One tree would be enough to supply Spirevo's industrial and commercial needs for 1 month. The highest tree recorded was Old Hushy, which was at 480 ft tall. It was brought down when an earthquake struck the region, and supplied Spirevo with enough wood to last 2 years. Also exclusive to the country is the Azure Butterfly, which is actually a flower. It is considered to be one of the most beautiful and sweet smelling flowers in the world, and can live without water or nutrition for 3 months. It is uncommon and a protected species.

The Cylari Eagle is the national bird of the country and is endemic to the heavily forested areas of the Miroris Mountain range. It is an endangered species and as few as 45 are left in the wild. The Zilais Whale is one of the rarest whales in the world, appearing globally but they always dock at the beautiful reefs of the Spirevan Sea.
