	'''Gensokyo''' (Genian: じんそこ, ''Jinsokō, or Jinsokou;'' Japanese: 幻想郷, ''Gensōgō or Gensoukyou''), traditionally known in English as '''Genia''' (Japanese and Genian: ジーニア, ''Jīnia'') was a landlocked country in [[Orientalis]], [[Theia]]. Situated in the central core of the [[Orientalis Mountains]], Gensokyo was almost entirely mountainous. Sanctus (or [[Sanctorio]]) was the nation's capital, whereas the only other major city was Kantor (or [[Kantorio]].)		'''Gensokyo''' (Genian: じんそこ, ''Jinsokō, or Jinsokou;'' Japanese: 幻想郷, ''Gensōgō or Gensoukyou''), traditionally known in English as '''Genia''' (Japanese and Genian: ジーニア, ''Jīnia'') was a landlocked country in [[Orientalis]], [[Theia]]. Situated in the central core of the [[Orientalis Mountains]], Gensokyo was almost entirely mountainous. Sanctus (or [[Sanctorio]]) was the nation's capital, whereas the only other major city was Kantor (or [[Kantorio]]). In 459 CE, Gensokyo joined the [[Theian Federation]] which lead to its dissolution as a sovereign state.

	Gensokyo was one of the least populated Theian countries, and by extension one of the least densely populated countries. Owing to its highly mountainous terrain. Gensokyo's population was concentrated on the only two major cities within the country, holding 80% of the country's entire population between them. Gensokyo was not divided into any administrative divisions whatsoever, other than six ceremonial historical regions.

	The official language spoken in Gensokyo is Genian, a native Theian language. It belongs to the Northern Oriental family, meaning it is closely related to Geiran and Sapukoro, the languages of Gheyla and New Sapporo. The language is syllabic and mora-timed, much like the Japanese language on Yata to which it bears an uncanny similarity. As a result, Japanese became a lingua franca for communication between Gensokyo and the wider world, and the Japanese script was adopted into Genian. The traditional Genian script is seldom used outside of religious contexts.		The official language spoken in Gensokyo is Genian, a native Theian language.
