Cerman (IPA: /sə(r)ˈmɑːn/), often known as Terminia, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Cerman, is a sovereign country in Baredina. Located in northwest Ekuosia, Cerman's area is almost evenly split between the Terminian Isles (home to 83% of the Cermani population) and Utol on the Ekuosian mainland. With an estimated population of almost 129 million, Cerman is the 7th most populous country on Sahar and the 3rd in Ekuosia, after Ebo Nganagam and Nevira.

Cerman was first settled by Ngerupics who migrated from Akulanen into the Terminian Isles around 3000 years ago. There they established a distinct culture and language, heavily influenced by the Letsatians who conquered the Terminian homeland in 200 BCE. It was during the Letsatian period that Iovic religion was introduced to the area, which eventually led to the establishment of Pashaism. The Termic expansion in the 1st century resulted in the settlement of southern Akulanen and the northwestern coast of Ekuosia by Terms. Over the next two millennia the Terminian Empire (in various forms), having risen to prominence after the fall of Letsatia, became extremely rich and powerful due to its advantageous position on multiple trade routes. At its height in the 15th century, it controlled vast swathes of western Ekuosia along with multiple territories in Boroso and Miraria and trade posts in most of the known world. It is often considered to have been the single most powerful empire in history.

In 1925, following a coup by the Kúúlist Popular Party against the Olboros monarchy of the Terminian Three Kingdoms, the Adhelsonian Provisional State was established and became the first constitutionally Kúúlist state on Sahar. This resulted in a two-year-long civil war which resulted in a victory for the Kúúlists over the divided and unpopular monarchists. It was during the initial Kúúlist period that Terminia experienced rapid industrialisation and economic development, a result of five-year plans which sought to reelevate the Terminians to a globally influential status. In 1942 the Helsonian constitution was rewritten by the powerful statist faction of the KPP, which established the federal Union of Supreme Helsonian Republics. Helsonia began to expand its military capabilities and global influence, as a result of the Fals-Helsonian War of 1936-1940 and the Great Ekuosian War which Helsonia directly participated in from 1949-1951.

Modern Cerman was established in 2005 after the collapse of the Helsonian Union. Before this point Terminia had had almost continuous control over Amerhan since its settlement by Termic peoples. In 2006, Cerman invaded the Kúúlist government of another Helsonian successor state, the PFHR Utol, and incorporated it into the Cermani federation. Since 2013, Cerman has been a full member of the Ekuosian Union and the Ekuosian currency basket. The Cermani constitution defines Cerman as a democratic, parliamentary republic following the Terminian parliamentary system; the current Grand Vizier, Váázegy Groz has been head of the government since Cerman's creation. Cerman has sovereignty over two overseas territories: the Cermani Far West and the Cermani Kaisen.

The capital of Cerman, Kúri, is a major global economic hub and the 10th largest city in Ekuosia with a population of just over 6 million. Cerman is usually categorised as a developed country and has one of the largest nominal GDPs on Sahar - despite this, Cerman has a comparatively low GDP per capita, especially compared to much of the EkU.

Etymology

The word Cerman, from Middle Terminian Cérhmwń, originally refered only to the language spoken in Terminia. However, in the 16th century the word began also being applied as a collective name for the duchies in the Terminian homeland, to differentiate it from the territories of the Terminian Empire. Up until then, the most common word for Terminia had been Gńwacúrhm; this term is the source for many exonyms of Cerman, and is still often used in Cerman to refer to the Terminian Empire, as well as the geographic Terminian Isles.
