Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition: Difference between revisions

The '''Chlouvānem Inquisition''' ([[Chlouvānem|natively]] ''Murkadhānāvi''; [[Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition#Names|see below for other names]]) is a country on the planet of [[Verse:Calémere|Calémere]]. With a population of 1.457 billion people it is also its most populated country (counting about 17,8% of the total Calemerian population). It is a federally organized theocracy, consisting of 117 dioceses (''juṃšañāñai'') with a large degree of autonomy; the dioceses are mostly a contiguous territory extending throughout the whole continent of Márusúturon (''Mārṣūtram'' in the Chlouvānem language), covering about 40% of it; some dioceses are entirely insular in the neighboring seas, though the islands of ''Kāyīchah'' are much closer to Védren, effectively making the Inquisition a transcontinental country. The Inquisition covers approximately 14.4 million square kilometers (about 8% of the land areas on Calémere), which makes it also the largest country on the planet.<br/>

Counted as separate entities are also many territories - mostly islands with military bases or scientific stations - across the planet; the most notable of those is the ''Lalla Kehamyuita'' (“High North”), jointly governed with Askand, Skyrdagor, and Brono, which is a large but almost uninhabited territory consisting of the whole part of Eastern Márusúturon north of the 68th parallel north.
