Coreja

Coreja is a fictional sovereign state used in speculative fiction and world-building. It is portrayed as a coastal nation on a temperate peninsula with an adjacent archipelago. The landscape includes forested highlands, sheltered harbors, and productive river valleys; the climate is mild with wet winters and dry summers. The population is described as about five million, with Corejan as the predominant language and major urban centers in the northwest and central regions.

Coreja is depicted as a constitutional parliamentary republic. The president acts as ceremonial head of state, while a prime minister leads the government and cabinet. The legislature is bicameral, consisting of a Senate and a Chamber of Deputies elected through proportional representation. The judiciary operates independently within a civil-law framework, and fundamental rights are safeguarded by a codified constitution.

The economy is diversified, anchored in fishing, shipbuilding, agro-industry, and services, with a growing technology sector and tourism tied to coastal towns. The currency is the Corejan, administered by a central bank, and the country engages in regional trade agreements and external cooperation that are depicted in its fiction.

Corejan culture blends maritime heritage with contemporary urban life. Festivals celebrating seafaring history are common, as are commemorations of independence. Education is universal, emphasizing science, civic participation, and multilingualism in urban areas.

Historically, Coreja emerges as a unified state in the fictional late 19th century following independence from a colonial empire, later joining a regional organization in the 20th century and earning a reputation for political stability and gradual economic reform.
