Quebec is a self governing kingdom within the Canadian colonial empire, located on the east coast of the Arda Continent, stretching from the Swedish Peninsula in the north, to Myroria in the south. From the Myrorian border at the coast, the border progresses south to the Gerschwin River. Quebec's western border is the Gerschwin River from the Myrorian border to the border between Murray and Shedrock Mountain Territory. From there on the border is approximatley on the western foothills of the Shedrock Moutains, to the Eluvatar border.

Quebec has been populated for caucasians since the 1600's, but has been inhabited by natives since aincent times. Quebec was founded as a union between four nations, the Fort James Territories, Casseland, the Bedford Gardens and New Sweden, in 1831.

Quebec functions as a Constitutional Monarchy with Parliamentary Democracy, with the current government being Democratic Socialists. The nation is made of 13 provinces. It is a developed and industrialized nation, with a high human development index. The nation has abundant resources and a fair economy. Quebec has very good civil rights and some political freedoms.

History

Prior to caucasian conquest, Quebec was populated by nomadic native tribes. Fossils and artifacts indicate that these people were advanced in their technologies, with evidence indicating that they had had a complex writing system, and were just starting to utilize gunpowder when caucasians arrived. The first documented arrival by a caucasian was Duke Farthing, in 1643, aboard the Bluebird. He landed at what is now Duke's Peninsula in Casseland. Duke and his crew made camp at the sandy beaches, traded with the natives and returned home. The first perminant settlement of caucasians was later that decade in 1649, when Olaf Erikson landed at the Stockholm point, and set up a town which was called Stockholm. The town flourished and gradually attracted more and more residents.

The first Inglish settlement was Eldwin in what is now the Bedford Garden Province, in 1661. The town was founded by Duke Farthing, who had brought an entire naval fleet with him to settle this new land. By sometime in the 18th century, the city had been renamed Fisherton, after over 30,000 people lived in the city.

The first country to be set up was New Sweden, which was founded by Olaf Erikson's son, Sweno Olafson, in 1663. Prior to that Stockholm had no true government, and was in essential anarchy. When Erikson was assassinated, Olafson decided to institute a nation, which was New Sweden.

The next country to arise was the Bedford Gardens, which was the north coast going from New Sweden to Eluvatar, with Fisherton as its capital. It would only be until much later when Casseland and the Fort James Territories were formed.

Finally, the Confederacy of Annabe was created. It was good country ruled by the Democratic Socialists. However, it wasnt going to last. The COnfederacy soon fell apart by civil war and revoltion. The country slipped into anarchy with no government in sight. In the year 2007, the Kingdom of Myroria and St. Oz nearly went to war over this piece of land. But the two countries listened to the pleas of another neighboring country called the Empire of Canada. The Canadian Emperor, with the agreement of the Myrorian and Ozian governments, placed his sister, Jordan Artorion on the throne of Annabe and absorbed it into the Canadian colonial empire. The new Queen then declared the new nation called the Kingdom of Quebec.
