Frootania (/ˈfruːtənɪər/) (High Frooyrian: Frootnīete), officially the Socialist Republic of Frootania (High Frooyrian: Idañte Hēnshegindīa hen Frootnīete; Southerian: Soschiälisig Repüb Fröochtine; Demacian: Σοσιαλιστική Δημοκρατία της Φρουτανίας; Scandavian: Sozialistische Republik Fruchtanien) is a sovereign country located in East Wulfor. The state is made up of three individual countries with unique languages, cultures and ideologies and internationally respected as a multinational state, as many groups have claimed this region their home through time. Regarded as a regional power on the Berellion peninsula, Frootania is usually regarded as one of the most highly developed, liberal, social intelligent and eco-friendly countries on the globe.

The country enjoys a close economic and military alliance with neighbouring Demacia, resulting into the creation of Froomacia. Recent changes in government, with the country becoming constitutionally socialist, have put this alliance into question.

Frootania is a unitary parliamentary republic, with no president. Instead, the country has a Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor in power. The current Chancellor is Aniyá Delanes. The current Vice-Chancellor is Jen van de Warran. The Frootish legislature is the Senate.
