The Luanian Kingdom, (Romanian: Regatul Luanei), also known as simply Luana,is a romanian landlocked self-declared independent state with little to no international recognition. Luana is located in Southeast Europe and the nation is surrounded by Romania. Luana is a Constitutional Monarchy led and founded by Alessandro I and the approximate controlled land is of 2 510 square meters. Luana has one region and the capital city is Islo. The population of Luana is mostly romanians from the city of Buzau but people from around the world are invited to become Luana's citizens. The official currency of the country is the RON.
The nation has a long history but as most recently it's also known as Abristan or the Former LRA.
On the micronational stage, Luana has diplomatic relations with multiple countries and is continously looking to improve their diplomacy.

History
Ancient Times
Our history starts in the mountains of buzau in the prehistoric times, where our luanian ancestors found home, near the nowadays city of Bozioru. Dating from that period are also some beautiful collections of weird shaped rocks, who some may say look like fallen small UFO's, near the prehistoric settlement.
The name of Luana has two legends, one is that the god those prehistoric luanians worshipped was named Luana, and the other one is that Luana was a very smart king of our ancient ancestors, who would wash the wounded with the water from a nearby water source who was known to do miracles. We prefer the second legend.
Modern Times
The legends are many but the history we actually know starts around the 1800's, where our luanian people already left the initial settlement and established small towns very nearby, only some people still cared about the luanian traditions and about the luanian past, most people have already forgotten by the end of the Napoleonic Wars.
Many people of luanian descent died in both World Wars and we honor them, even though most of them didn't know they were luanian, and some of them weren't even living near the original settlement anymore.
During the romanian communist regime, the old luanians who still cared about our traditions were sent to prison, where they would be tortured and killed for being monarchists. The luanians were known for being monarchists because during the monarchy, you would be able to practice your luanian regional traditions freely, and you could teach the kids about their descent without anyone interfering, but during communism our traditions were opressed, even though they were very similar to Romanian ones.
Fast forward to recent years, everyone forgot about Luana and our traditions, only some old people are left that have told their stories. Tudor Alessandro and some of his friends or colleagues found out about the legends and also found out that some of them might originate from near Bozioru, thus confirming their luanian descent. Alessandro had confirmed his luanian descent first and wanted to do something to revive the luanian traditions and established a micronation, through that micronation bringing back the ancient Kingdom of Luana. He was crowned King and the micronation lived on for almost 2 years.
The L.R.A.
The members of the micronation and the King informed themselves and found out that there still is a descendant of the romanian kings and as a sign of gratitude for when they could express their traditions freely, they thought of offering the Queen, Margareta the throne of Luana until She can lead Romania. So they did, the Kingdom of Luana dissolved and the Luanian Royal Administration was formed, where the former King would be the Head of the Administration, second in command after the Queen.
Luana, at last...
Very recently the Kingdom of Luana was brought back because we need to put the luanian people above all other goals, though our respect for the Romanian Monarchy is still imense.
