The Holy Community of Svetostrov (Krasnocorian: Светостровска Света Заједница), also known as Svetostrov (Krasnocorian: Светостров) is a theocratic community located on Réunion island in north-western Apollonia. The nation shares maritime border with Craitland.
History
Before Svetostrov
Svetostrov was initially settled by Treesians in the antiquity period, and being under its rule up until 1514 AN. The Republic of Mania was based on the island from 1523 to 1542. In 1550, the Holy Empire of Réunion declared its independence and ruled over the island. Not many things are known about this period, which lasted until 1727, due to the isolationism of its government and residents.
Emergence of the Holy Community
The idea of a theocratic Orthodox Nazarene community has been a topic within the Corian Orthodox Church since the Sylvanian National Awakening.
Geography
The climate of Svetostrov is subarctic. Winters last at least ten months, with the temperatures staying below freezing point during most of the year. In the summer, which lasts two to five months, the average maximum temperatures usually range between 15 and 20 °C.

Infrastructure
Compared to other countries across the world, Svetostrovan infrastructure is very poor, and requires serious measures in order to improve the quality of life.
Energy
Svetostrov relies on coal power plants, powered by the island's coal mining industry. There are plans of energetic diversification, specifically by introducing solar and wave power, but also research of the island's geothermal energy potential.
Transport
Transport infrastructure is mostly limited to roads and pathways. Major roads in Svetostrov are paved with cobblestone, while many of the others are unpaved. The difficult climate conditions resulted in main means of transportation being animal-drawn vehicles and snowmobiles.
Ports in Svetostrov are generally ice-free due to the favourable currents, and are the backbone of connection with the rest of the world.
There are no airports in Svetostrov, but a very limited helicopter transport is present.
