Saint Salvation, officially the Republic of Saint Salvation (Martino: República de San Salvación), is a ministate and city-state located in central Keltia along the Rodiana River on the riverbanks of the Attera Water Gap.

Etymology

Saint Salvation was given its name as the home of "Salvation" for refugees and wanderers of The Green. The city of Saint Salvation, lying on the narrowest point of the Rodiana River, served as an oasis with a high aquifer and access to life-saving water in the arid region.

History

Rise of empires (antiquity–1544 AN)

The riverbanks of the Attera Water Gap have been home to multiple kingdoms and empires for hundreds of years.

Hamland and Caputia (1545–1669 AN)

Modern Saint Salvation lies in the former states of Wakefield and San Luis along the Rodiana River. In 1669 AN, the Kingdom of the Union of Caputia suddenly and dramatically collapsed due to the White Plague.

Era of disorder (1670–1723 AN)

To replace the Attera Gap Ferry, the informal city of Saint Salvation began the construction of the newest bridge along the northern Rodiana River, the first in half a century. The bridge itself cost ₢5.53 billion, funded primary by bonds and shares of future toll revenue purchased by the people of Saint Salvation. With the bride's completion in 1724 AN, the citizens of Saint Salvation finally identified themselves their own people and proclaimed a republic.

The new republic (1724 AN–present)

Geography
