			===[[Yellow Revolution]] and fall of monarchy===
			Born in -97[[Ð]], [[Åranvik]]ian journalist [[Ingun Hele]] witnessed a person criticising the Åranian religion being taken into prisonship by the royal guards. She believed the king of Årania at the time, [[Veste Alsten]], was responsible for this action and wanted full free self-expression to be allowed. Following this, she created the first newspaper service in the world, Årania Times, in -74.4[[Ð]].<br/>
			Because of her often spreading information criticising the monarchy of Årania, the newspaper started out in secret, with an extensive network of street vendors and suppliers. It was in -74.1[[Ð]], that the newspaper was uncovered under request of the king. [[Ingun Hele]] was killed in her apartment by the royal guard for critisizing the monarchy.<br/>
			The news spread quickly through [[Åranvik]] and Årania, with many supporters of the Årania Times going onto the streets to protest. They were turned down in small groups and some of the protesters were killed. On the following day, the former dealers of the newspapers organised all protestors into one single group, which marks the beginning of the [[Yellow Revolution]]. Most of the population of [[Åranvik]] protested for free speech and the fall of the monarchy, but there was also an oppision by the royal guards of Årania. After multiple days of protesting, where the protestors were supplied with food by the remaining population of the city, all of the guards were killed or surrendered, allowing all protestors to raid the King's Palace.<br/>
			[[Veste Alsten]] was publically decapitated and his body parts were eaten by the protestors. Some of his bones can be found in the National Åranian Museum.<br/>
			This marked the fall of the monarchy in Årania and the establishment of a free democratic state. Årania's first elections were held in -74[[Ð]]. This was the first event that connected most Åranians together for the same cause, creating a spike in patriotism.

	The music scene of Årania is portrayed by its deep connection to traditions and patriotism, resulting in a massive folk-scene in the country. This means that most other genres such as electronic, hip-hop and pop all have elements of folk. This tradition-rich music scene has led some artists to try to express themselves differently to seperate themselves in recent times. An example of that is Åranian hip-hop artist [[Skytter]], who returned to basics of music and experimented with synthetic and electronic sounds, which created the music genre "[[Rage]]", which Årania is also famous for.<br/>		The music scene of Årania is portrayed by its deep connection to traditions and patriotism, resulting in a massive folk-scene in the country.

	Before -48Ð, the economy of Årania was very fragile, as during the partial occupation of Årania by [[Lanborg]] druing the [[War of Dignity]], all leftovers of industry were forced to be sent to [[Lanborg]] and there was no chance of economic development. After the [[War of Dignity\|war]], Årania gained a massive forced donation by [[Lanborg]] as a reperation the the damage done during the war. Using the money, Årania became the fastest developing region at the time. The economy was aided even more, when the [[Commonwealth]] demanded that [[Lanborg]] donated even more money as reparations.

	Agriculture is by far the largest field of industry in Årania. Because of its warm summers, large amounts of sun days and abundance of drinking water, it is one of the best places to grow crops. The land on the interior of the country is drier than on the river deltas and bays, so it usually not farmed in the interior of the country. Additionally, the soil on the bays and deltas is much richer. Årania is such a big exporter of crops, that the neighbouring region [[Thorildhøj]] relies on Årania to export a portion of their crops to them. The industry produces 250% of what Årania can consume.		Agriculture is by far the largest field of industry in Årania.
