Corallium was founded three times, once by proclamation of Joseph Vanacore (jmvvana) as the 'Republica Corallium', another through the merger of NoMalarkey's nation of Tarlia, subsequently leading to the coronation of Joseph Vanacore, as the 'Kingdom of Corallium', and lastly by Matthew Corallis' (NoMalarkey) 'Petition for Democracy', which was agreed by the reigning Joseph I, leading to the transformation of the Kingdom of Corallium into the current United Republic of Corallium.
Named after the '''Great Coral Sea,''' the first major coral sea-region before map expansion, and that most of the nation's claims laid on, Corallium was meant to establish a maritime state, in which a capital would be based on the Island of Prima. Following the belief by its earliest founders that Prima could not sustain a major city, a new location on the mouth of the Abbaccus River was chosen, and the city would become known as Albadia. This policy would later be reversed upon the transition from Provisional Council to United Republic and the subsequent inauguration of its first President on December 19, 2020.
The Great Coral Sea was placed under a protective program under a joint-agreement between other nations, institutions, and Corallium. Known as the '''Great Coral Sea Conservation Organization''', ('''GCSCO'''), battleships, trade-ships, and other large vessels or manmade island are restricted, as to both recognize the importance of the sea to most cities along its coasts, and to protect any corals from being destroyed.

Named for the Coral Sea that most of the nation's claims laid on, Corallium was meant to establish a maritime superstate, in which a capital would be based on the Island of Prima. Following the belief by EstevaoBuilder, Leobhz, Tuzao, and Jmvvana that Prima could not sustain a major city, a new location on the mouth of the Abbaccus River was chosen, and the city would become known as Albadia. Jmvvana intended to serve as 'President for Life' in the Republica Corallium, however would become a Monarch after the annexation of the nation of Tarlia into the new Kingdom of Corallium.
Jmvvana was coronated as the first King of Corallium and re-declared Supreme Pontiff of the Church of [[Borbor]], a title which he had obtained in the days of Lucite, in the Cathedral of Albadia. The official state religion of Corallium is [[Borbor|Borborism]]. Moments later, he called to council the first Assembly of the Crown, in which the members present had chosen Democratist Party Candidate, Matthew Corallis (NoMalarkey), as the first Prime Minister. Jmvvana also declared EstevaoBuilder, by the right of the crown, Prince of Albadia and heir to the throne. Under the reign of Joseph I, Corallium would focus its growth around the capital and Abbaccus River, though work slowed, and eventually halted.
As Prime Minister, Matthew Corallis' (NoMalarkey) first act was to gather the Assembly once more, and form a set constitution. While an official document was never signed nor declared, a doctrine of listening to the ideas of all the people who joined the Kingdom, was generally accepted, and the Kingdom was regarded as a Constitutional Monarchy. After the nation had fallen relatively quiet, and all building efforts relatively stopped, Prime Minister Corallis and his Democratist Party, including prominent members such as Andrew Ryams (Andre_Dre), had written the 'Petition for Democracy', to King Joseph I, in an attempt to revitalize and re-incentivize the nation, giving all people a larger role in the building efforts. The petition was accepted on the promise that Matthew Corallis would not run for the Presidency in the first Presidential Election, thus allowing the former King Joseph to become the first President of the newly formed United Republic of Corallium. The Presidential election of June, 2020, officially elected Joseph Vanacore as the first President of the United Republic of Corallium, and Matthew Corallis as the first Prime Minister both running unopposed.
Under the Presidency of Joseph Vanacore, the Abbaccus River building effort was completed, however a formal navy or military was never built.
Following a period of inactivity in the nation, activity soared as the Corallish people gathered in the Presidential election of December, 2020, and elected Matthew Corallis and Andrew Ryams, who joined the Democratist ticket of Candidate Corallis, as President, and Prime Minister, respectively. With a vote of 7-4, Matthew Corallis was declared the President-elect of Corallium on December 1st, 2020, and formed the Corallis-Ryams Transition Team, hiring Travis Wellington (_Travis) as Transition Manager, and later nominating him as Secretary of State-Designate. President-elect Corallis would also make plans for nominating former President Joseph Vanacore as Secretary of Defense-Designate, due to his extensive military experience stemming from building the military of [[Lucite]]. All are expected to take office December 19th, 2020.
The Corallis-Ryams Administration is expected to create the nation's first Constitution, and to reform the Corallish government. The transition team has yet to release their formal documents on the matter.


The nation was founded in its earliest iteration on April 10, 2020 as the ''Republica Corallium'', later becoming the Kingdom of Corallium. Following the Governor of Prima's ''Petition for Democracy'', the first national vote was held and the monarch, with the promise of a provisional government abdicated. Following months of reform, the Kingdom transformed into its current form of government upon the election of the nation's first President.

The United Republic of Corallium is a Presidential republic, with the President acting as the head of state. Currently, the Prime Minister serves as the head of government, however this is expected to change as the new administration takes office. The United Republic consists of several states, each headed by a Governor. The President also appoints a cabinet to manage the affairs of the various government departments.
The modern state of Corallium, The United Republic of Corallium, is a Federal Presidential Constitutional Republic and a Representative Democracy. By definition, the President is both the Head of State and Government, while his Vice President, as outlined by the Presidential Line of Succession Act of the ''First Mons Coralli Congress'', is the President of the Senate. Should the President resign or be incapacitated, the Vice President would be sworn in as their successor. Though, the Vice President may hold temporary presidential powers should the President endow them with it. The United Republic consists of several states, each headed by a Governor, all who act autonomously with their states in agreement with the Constitution and are represented in Congress in the ''Mons Coralli'' on the Island of Prima. The President has the ability to appoint a cabinet to manage the affairs of the various government departments—specializing in aspects that would make projects and the government unified and concise.

Named after the Great Coral Sea, the first major coral sea-region before map expansion, and that most of the nation's claims laid on, Corallium was meant to establish a maritime state, in which a capital would be based on the Island of Prima. Following the belief by its earliest founders that Prima could not sustain a major city, a new location on the mouth of the Abbaccus River was chosen, and the city would become known as Albadia. This policy would later be reversed upon the transition from Provisional Council to United Republic and the subsequent inauguration of its first President on December 19, 2020. The Great Coral Sea was placed under a protective program under a joint-agreement between other nations, institutions, and Corallium. Known as the Great Coral Sea Conservation Organization, (GCSCO), battleships, trade-ships, and other large vessels or manmade island are restricted, as to both recognize the importance of the sea to most cities along its coasts, and to protect any corals from being destroyed.

The modern state of Corallium, The United Republic of Corallium, is a Federal Presidential Constitutional Republic and a Representative Democracy. By definition, the President is both the Head of State and Government, while his Vice President, as outlined by the Presidential Line of Succession Act of the First Mons Coralli Congress, is the President of the Senate. Should the President resign or be incapacitated, the Vice President would be sworn in as their successor. Though, the Vice President may hold temporary presidential powers should the President endow them with it. The United Republic consists of several states, each headed by a Governor, all who act autonomously with their states in agreement with the Constitution and are represented in Congress in the Mons Coralli on the Island of Prima. The President has the ability to appoint a cabinet to manage the affairs of the various government departments—specializing in aspects that would make projects and the government unified and concise.
