sloventinou

Sloventinou is a fictional microstate created for speculative geography, world-building, and educational exercises. In consensus fiction and wiki simulations, it represents a small Alpine polity that blends Slovenian heritage with broader Central European influences. The name combines Slovenian linguistic roots with a stylized suffix, reflecting its imagined origins.

Sloventinou covers about 7,800 square kilometers in a mountainous valley surrounded by the fictional regions of Tyrenia and Norda. Its terrain includes glaciated peaks, pine forests, and a sheltered valley where the capital Lirna lies by the river Sonar. The climate is temperate with alpine winters. The government operates as a constitutional republic. The unicameral Assembly has 45 seats and is elected every four years. The president is head of state; the prime minister is head of government. The constitution, adopted in 1990, guarantees civil liberties and regional autonomy for municipalities.

Historically, Sloventinou is depicted as formed by a union of mountain communes during the 1840s and 1850s, achieving formal independence in 1849; later integrating into the regional Alpine Union in 1995. The population is around 470,000 people. Official language is Sloventinou, a constructed language drawing on Slovenian and neighboring Central European tongues; most residents are bilingual in Slovenian and Sloventinou. Other languages are spoken by immigrant communities.

Economy emphasizes sustainable energy, particularly hydroelectric power from mountain rivers, tourism, and precision manufacturing. The country is known for alpine cuisine, folk music, and a strong tradition of outdoor recreation. Education is provided by public schools and the University of Lirna, which hosts programs in engineering, ecology, and language studies. Notable features include Sloventinou National Park, the Central Alpine Railway, and the Lirna International Airport.
