The Prosaic Union of Gnejs, commonly abbreviated PUG, is a country located in eastern Hespia. It is the easternmost nation on that continent, and borders Domnonia to the west. It covers X square kilometres and has an estimated population of 20 million. It is a unitary state, in which the central government is supreme and sub-national administrative divisions' only exercise delegated powers.

Etymology

Gnejs is the Swedish word for type of metamorphic rock called gneiss in English and German. The root of the word is believed to derive from the High German "gneist", meaning roughly "spark", the link being that the rock glitters. Gneiss is a common rock type across the territory making up the modern day nation and has historically been a readily used building material component. The cottage that housed what today is called the Constitutional Convention of 1397 (the founding of the modern day nation) was gneiss-based, and when regional delegates struggled to agree on a name for the new union, they allegedly drew inspiration from their surroundings.
