Northern Rjénberem

The Northern Rjénberem (Torberian: [ˈxalat͡stes ˈrjenbeɾa], Estebian: [ˈsjeveɾes reˈnat͡s])is a torberian state situated on the northern part of the torberian side of the rjén basin.

The Northern Rjénberem is located in Tévnova, and is the third smallest state in the region, being only behind Esver-Estern and Tírvaja. Currently, it has over five million people, making it one of the most populated states of Tévnova. This region is located in the industrial heart of Torberia, the Rjénberem, which is blessed with fertile lands, abundant amounts of water, and abundant deposits of coal and iron.

The Northern Rjénberem is the 4th richest torberian state, being behind Esver-Estern, Southern Rjénberem and the Serivnian Decapolis, like its southern neigbour, it is also one of the most industrialized areas of the torberian state, with the industries of car manufacturing and arms manufacturing being very large there. Its location in the Rjén basin easily connects it with other big population centers, like Hélsk or Ésver-Estern, while also connecting it with Yavatia and the Southern Rjénberem, which facilitates transport and communication within the regions a lot.

The state of the Northern Rjenberem was established in 1982 for two regions: The first one was that the rjénberem region was split in two to maintain a balance between states, since a united Rjénberem would destabilize the state balance, due to how economically powerful and populated the region is compared to the rest of the torberian states and the second one was that the northern parts of the Rjénberem are culturally different from the south, with the north having large estebian minorities while the south is almost completely torberian.

Culturally, the region is divided into the predominantly torberian southern edges, the predominantly estebian northern edges, the mix of Torberian and estebian cultures ongoing in the Háltrjénan Belt and in the eastern edges of the region, a relatively small Tévnovan area. This state isn't as much of an internal powerhouse as the Southern Rjénberem, but has seen almost equal growth ever since the Torberian Miracle, and still has a large economy compared to other states.

Politically, the Northern Rjénberem is a relatively conservative area. It is a semi-guided region, which means that the governor is appointed by the Lészer but the parliament is democratically elected in free elections. The most popular party is the democratic wing of the Séltet party, with it winning by a landslide election after election. Separatism isn't very common, but in the northern parts of the state, estebian separatism is more common, due to the history of torberian oppression that region has.
