Valstra

Valstra (Esceosian: Válstra), officially the Commonwealth of Valstra (Esceosian: Válstrai Államszövetség), is a country compromising the western part of the Australasian continent and some smaller islands. It is the world's tenth-largest country by total area. Neighbouring countries include Indonesia and East Timor to the north; and Australia to the east.

For about 50,000 years, before the first Esceosian settlement in the late 18th century, Valstra was inhabited by indigenous Australasians, who spoke languages grouped into rougly 250 language groups. After the European discovery of the continent by North Batavian explorers in 1606, Valstra was claimed by the Esceosia in 1784 and intially settled through penal transportation to the colony of Exília from 27 May 1797. The population grew steadily in subsequent decades; the continent was explored and an additional three self-governing crown colonies were established. On 12 June 1904, the four colonies federated, forming the Commonwealth of Valstra. Since federation, Valstra has maintained a stable liberal democratic political system that functions as a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy compromising four states and two territories. The population of 5 million is relatively urbanised and is heavily concentrated in the State of Exilia around the coast.

Valstra is a developed country with a high-income economy, making it the world's 45th-largest economy. In 2014 Valstra had the world's fourth-highest per capita income. With the second-highest human development index globally, Valstra ranks highly in many international comparions of national performance, such as quality of life, health, education, economic freedom, and protection of civil liberties and political rights. Valstra is a member of the Earth Congress, the Esceosian Commonwealth, VANZAF, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), World Trade Organization, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, and the Pacific Islands Forum.
