Etourney is an overseas autonomous territory of the Florian Republic. It was discovered after a long voyage from Florian settlers fleeing from the Xhusor War. It currently consists of the island of Etourney and the island of Tanbury. These main islands are also accompanied by uninhabited islets and rocks. The territory has its own financial, legal and judicial systems,[5] and the power of self-determination. Florian cultural influence on the island is evident in its use of Florian as the main language and the Florian Dollar as its primary currency despite most residents actually speaking French. Additional cultural commonalities include driving on the left, access to Florian TV channels, a school curriculum following that of the Florian Republic, and the popularity of Florian sports, including rugby league, football and basketball.
