Sklyrachy is one of the two Autonomous Communities of Yuunli. It makes up 13% of Yuunli's population, and 17% of its area.

The flag of Sklyrachy is green for the nature on the main plateau. The white color on the sides stands for the mountains in the west and east.


Geography

Sklyrachy is located in the north of the IDU landmass. It borders the Democratic Federation of Grosseschnauzer in the north, the People's Republic of Flankia in the east, the Community of Sober Thought in the south, and the Interstellar Federation of DataGenesis in the west.

The total area of Mysh Island is 3,914,053 km² (1,511,871 square miles). That's 83% of Yuunli.

The following map (which shows both Mysh Island and Sklyrachy), rivers are blue and provincial borders are red, unless they are marked by rivers.

Populace

Religions

Religious affiliation is not asked in a census, that's why only estimates exist.

It is estimated that 67% of the Sklyrachyans are strigidists (55% of them traditionalists, 45% modernists), 32% atheists and only 1% follow other religions.

The mountainous regions are strongholds of traditional strigidism, whereas the modern variant is stronger in the coastal and hilly provinces.
Atheists are more common in more urbanized provinces.
Other religions are more common in coastal provinces.

Fore more information about strigidist beliefs, see Strigidism.
