 '''iKalurilut''' (native pronunciation: [ikaluʁiˈlut]), officially the '''Kalurilut Republic''' ('''Naasimiartut ruKalurilut''' [naːsimiaχˈtut ʁukaluʁiˈlut]), is a country in central Márusúturon, a continent of Calémere. It borders, clockwise from the north, Ylvostydh, Brono, and the Chlouvānem Inquisition; its western borders are maritime, on the Skyrdegan Inner Sea, more precisely the two inlets called Ittungaq Sea (''ivulit ittungaq'', a.k.a. High Ivulit in Chlouvānem sources) and (its southernmost part) Allaasinanngiup Gulf (''ikiissulit allaasinanngiup'', a.k.a. Little Ivulit), which divide it from the countries of Leny-tḥewe, Ebed-dowa, and Oempras. Most of its current borders are mountainous, with the country's highest peak, Mount Isivaruuk (''ingalup iSivaruuk''), on the Chlouvānem border and very close to the tripoint with Brono, being 3.ᘔƐ2 pā (6758<sub>10</sub> = about 7021.5 m) high.
-iKalurilut lies almost entirely between latitudes 30° and 39°N; its southernmost point is just about one mile south of the 30th parallel north. The country may be divided, thanks to its various mountain chains, in three distinct zones: the iRunguunap plain, along the iPiarunngit river, which lies in the central-northern part of the country and is its most densely populated part; the long but narrow western coast; and the central highlands, which are river basins that ultimately all drain into the western coast through two major rivers - the iSitilluq in the central part and the iKalappiq in the far south<ref>The final stretch of the iKalappiq river, after the canyons, also marks a small section of the border between iKalurilut and the Chlouvānem Inquisition.</ref> - that cut through the mountains in impressive canyon systems.

 iKalurilut, today, is a linguistically and religiously homogeneous country, with 96% of its inhabitants being religiously [[Verse:Yunyalīlta|Yunyalīlti]]. Historically predominantly inhabited by the Sulurilut, in the half century since the Kaiṣamā era there has been a steady influx of Chlouvānem people, so that 81.5% of its population is Kalurilut, 17% Chlouvānem, and the remaining 1.5% of other ethnic backgrounds. saKalurilut is the only nationwide official language - [[Chlouvānem]] is only official in the four southern regions, but it is widely spoken as a L2 also by native Sulurilut due to its status as lingua franca of the Eastern bloc and sacred language of the Yunyalīlta. At the last census in 6418 (six years ago), the population amounted to 39,838,427 people; according to more recent estimates, it has grown to slightly more than 40 million people.
