Caramida, in the province of California is a small, progressively governed coastal nation.
The Dominion of Caramida is a rather new nation, less than fifty days old, with a population of 14 million. Originally settled by refugees from Catan, Caramida has quickly made itself known on the regional stage.
The nation is known for its moderately anti-business politics in favor of the environmental protection. Its seashore is inhabited by the national animal, the Caramidan Grebe (genus Podiceps caramidus), which is protected in Caramidan territory and national waters.
