Jeuna, officially the Republic of Jeuna (known in Chinese as 媛華共和国; Pinyin: Yuánghua Gònghéguó) is a country in East Asia (commonly considered part of Manchuria). It is bordered to the north and east by Russia, to the west by the People's Republic of China and to the south by North Korea.

Etymology
Jeuna is usually known as Yuánguó (Chinese: 媛国) in Mandarin Chinese. The first character, 媛, means 'a beauty', while the second character, 国, means 'state' or 'country'. Christian missionaries originally translated the name as 'Beautiful Kingdom'.
The origin of the English construct 'Jeuna' may have come from two sources. The first is that 'Jeuna' was derived from Sanskrit Jun, which referenced the Jin Dynasty that ruled the area. Traders on the Silk Road may have identified themselves as such. The other possibility is that 'Jeuna' is a corruption of the original name, Yuánghua.
History

Ancient
Jeuna's history stretches back as far as the fifth century, when it was first known to be inhabited by such people as the Xianbei, the Mohe, and the Khitan. The eastern portion of Jeuna was ruled by kingdom of Bohai between the 7th century and 10th century. The Jurchen Jin Dynasty (1115-1234) that subsequently ruled much of northern China arose within the borders of modern Jeuna.

Foreign relations
- Main article(s): Foreign relations of Jeuna
Jeuna maintains a strong relationship with the United States, and has historically disagreed with both the People's Republic of China and North Korea since their communist revolutions. For a time, Jeuna was an important strategic foothold against the USSR, and several bases were built in the north and eastern areas of the country as a precautionary measure to stave off invasions by the Soviets.
Military
- Main article(s): Military of Jeuna
Jeuna possesses a small military force, which uses equipment primarily from the United States, but has also looked at acquiring certain newer Russian gear since 2005.
Jeuna's military consists of two branches, which are:
- the Republican Guard and
- the Jeunese Air Defence Force
The Republican Guard also operates several riverine defence vessels for patrolling the Amur River. These vessels are organised into the Republican Guard River Defence Force.
