History
Main Article: Kedalfaxian history
Kedalfax was discovered by Dutch explorer Peiter Kedaalf. It became a Dutch colony, known variously as Kedaalfiea and Kedaalfa. By the mid 1800s, the name had evolved to Kedalfax.
In 1703 the colony was taken by the British, and in 1842, the people revolted and it became a new nation in 1845

Climate
Kedalfax's climate ranges very widely, from the wetter, milder East, to the dryer, more extreme West.
The West
The Western area of Kedalfax is generally quite dry, with the average rainfall being only 1 in. per month in most of the area.
The summers are much hotter than the East, with the average July temperature being 95°F.
The winters are a contrasting cold, with the average January tempurature being only 10°F.
The East
The Eastern climate is much milder, with average July tempuratures at 80°F, and average January tempuratures at 40°F.
The area also has more percipitation, with an average of 5 in. per month. In most areas, rain comes in light rains in the late afternoon, lasting only minutes.
Noreasters
A strange oddity that climatoligists have still not been able to isolate the exact cause of, the Noreaster storm system is a type of storm that usually comes in every year in mid to late December, causing between two and nine inches of snow in the northeastern parts of the nation. The storms usually track over the nation in a southwestern direction, turning further south as they cross the Gulf of Kedalfax. Temuratures usually lower just before the storm, and stay low for up to two weeks afterwards.
Cities in the northwest such as New Athens, Fallietburgh, and Malkerton are rarely affected by them in any major way.
Nevada City, at the northeast tip of the nation, usually gets hit hardest, with averages for snowfall being as high as two feet.
Demographics
Kedalfax mostly consists of European descendants.
The following graph shows the population divided into each major race group.
This graph shows the percentage of each race that fits into each of three income categories, in Kedalfs of household income per person.
