The Federation of Domnonia is a member of the IDU.


The Confederation

The Province of Algar

Algar lies in western Domnonia, it borders the nation of Antrium along the River Isca. Algar is the largest producer of conventional crude oil, synthetic crude, natural gas and gas products in Domonia. Two of the largest producers of petrochemicals in the IDU are located in central and east central Algar. Over 5 million cattle are residents of the province at one time or another, and Algar beef has a healthy worldwide market. Algar is a parliamentary democracy. Its unicameral legislature -- the Legislative Assembly -- consists of 100 members. The government is headed by a Premier. The city of Algaria is Algar's government capital.

The Province of East Hiel

Map East Hiel is the westernmost province of Domnonia. It's capital is Ungava. Ungava is Domnonia's second most populous metropolitan area, reaching from the eastern shores of Yuril Bay to the southernmost tips of the East Hiel Isthmus. Other major cities include Maedon, Deira, Arcium, Acie, Kendorn, and Adera. The Hiel Range and Yuril Bay provide some of Domnonia's most renowned and spectacular scenery, which forms the backdrop and context for a growing outdoor adventure and ecotourism industry.

Province d'Inlad

The province occupies a small territory (comparable to the size of East Hiel), most of which is very sparsely populated. The most populated region is the Lawrence Bay area in the mid-south, where the capital, Souther, and the largest city, are situated. Inladers comprise the largest French-speaking society in Domnonia. Most French Domini live in Inlad, though there are other concentrations of French-speakers throughout Domnonia with varying degrees of ties to Inlad, or Jonquiere-Tadoussac. Map

The Province of Lindinis

The Province of Powysia

The Province of Sendar

Sendar is the most recent of mainland Domini provinces to join confederation. It has an area of 651,900 km and a population of 22,985,386(Sendarans). Most of its population lives in the geographic centre and the southernmost parts of the province. The largest city is Jedoor with a metropolitan population of 10.7 million, followed by the province's capital, Sendar (metro population: 9.66 million).

The Territories of Tomar

The Silures Territories

Silures was formerly a state of Poking the Devil(PD), and has begun an absorbtion process which will see it join Confederation as a full Province within 5 years. Geographically, Silures is east of the Domi River on the southwestern border of the Federal District of Cadorn, and southeast of Gnejs.

Culture

It has been said that Domnonian culture rests solely in the effort to distinguish itself from its neighbours in the IDU. However, others argue that while the region shares some aspects of a common cultural heritage, there is also a separately identifiable Domnonian culture. They point to what they view as a greater integration of their Native culture; the retention of traditions descended from those of French settlers; and a notable infusion of immigrant and refugee settlers in later phases of the country's history.

Media

Domnonia's first newspaper, The Cadorn Post, began publication in 1792. Like most newspapers, it was an adjunct of a commercial printing operation. Moreover, it was dependent on the government. This reliance on revenues from sources other than readers - from governments, political parties and advertisers - remains a characteristic of Domnonian newspapers.

The Cadorn Post merged with the Preston Globe in 1814, to become what is Domnonia's national newspaper, The Domini Globe & Post.

Foreign Affairs

Five Priorities Of International Engagement

1. Revitalizing Domnonia's International Democratic Union partnership by actively encouraging new member nations to join and promoting prosperity within the region;

2. Building a more secure region by stabilizing failed and fragile states, and combating the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction;

3. Increasing prosperity by strengthening Domnonia's competitiveness, enhancing commercial engagement, and targeting Domnonian businesses;

4. Promoting respect for human rights and building friendships by sharing Domnini expertise; and

5. Crafting new multilateralism and flexible diplomacy to deal with developments in Nationstates.
