Trailand

Trailand is a fictional country widely used in travel writing, fantasy role-playing games, and speculative fiction. It is depicted as a medium-sized nation on the eastern coast of a fictional continent, with a varied landscape that includes temperate lowlands, dense forests, and a rugged interior uplift. The climate ranges from maritime in the lowlands to alpine in the highlands.

Geographically, the country comprises a western coast with fjord-like inlets, inland Arden Highlands, and a southeastern plateau. The Varn and Lumen rivers cross the territory, supporting agriculture and settlements. Brackenport, a natural harbor on the coast, serves as the capital; Nettleford and Cinderock form a growing economic corridor.

Trailand operates as a constitutional parliamentary republic. The president acts as head of state in a largely ceremonial role, while a prime minister leads government policy and a unicameral Assembly debates legislation. The current constitution enshrines pluralism, civil liberties, and an independent judiciary. Its historical tradition emphasizes peaceful transfers of power and regional autonomy.

The economy is mixed, with strong contributions from ecotourism, sustainable forestry, and fisheries, complemented by light manufacturing and a growing technology sector in coastal cities. The currency is the trail. The population is diverse, with communities speaking Trailish as an official language alongside several minority languages; education and healthcare are publicly supported.

Culture centers on outdoor life, trail-based recreation, and regional storytelling. Public trails, nature preserves, and a network of renewable energy projects shape daily life. Notable landmarks include the Endless Trail, Summit of Sable, and Glassfjord, which attract visitors and feature in local folklore.
