History
Prehistory
The island was adjoined to the mainland of Australia until the end of the last glacial period about 11,700 years ago.<ref name="c">[1] Much of the island is composed of Jurassic dolerite intrusions (the upwelling of magma) through other rock types, sometimes forming large columnar joints. Tasmania has the world's largest areas of dolerite, with many distinctive mountains and cliffs formed from this rock type. The central plateau and the southeast portions of the island are mostly dolerites. Mount Wellington above Hobart is a good example, showing distinct columns known as the Organ Pipes.
In the southern midlands as far south as Hobart, the dolerite is underlaid by sandstone and similar sedimentary stones. In the southwest, Precambrian quartzites were formed from very ancient sea sediments and form strikingly sharp ridges and ranges, such as Federation Peak or Frenchmans Cap.
In the northeast and east, continental granites can be seen, such as at Freycinet, similar to coastal granites on mainland Australia. In the northwest and west, mineral-rich volcanic rock can be seen at Mount Read near Rosebery, or at Mount Lyell near Queenstown. Also present in the south and northwest is limestone with caves.
The quartzite and dolerite areas in the higher mountains show evidence of glaciation, and much of Australia's glaciated landscape is found on the Central Plateau and the Southwest. Cradle Mountain, another dolerite peak, for example, was a nunatak. The combination of these different rock types contributes to scenery which is distinct from any other region of the world. In the far southwest corner of the state, the geology is almost wholly quartzite, which gives the mountains the false impression of having snow-capped peaks year round.
Kingdom of Ansonia (1988-1990)
The Kingdom of Ansonia was formed in May 1988 and claimed the city of Anson Bay as capital which at the time was named Kéane Ansonnivas, However in 1989 it did move its capital to Hyangsi once before moving back to Anson Bay. King Gerald Smith build a house there to be the palace where he would be staying. At the time King Gerald and his friends built a port with their kayak on it and forming the Sameran Navy and the Sameran Army, Horses were used at the time. Until 1990 when British East Tasmania invaded Ansonia, Ansonia was in high alert which horses doesn't help causing the British to colonize Samera
British colony (1990-1996)
Ansonia was colonized by the British in 1990 and became the Crown Colony of Ansonia. British Ansonia was ruled by Governor Scott Williams from 1990 to 1996. Scott had plans to make an better Ansonia which he failed and made the economy even worse there. An reform happened in 1995 which they were sentenced to 10 years in prison which they were able to break out by opening the window. As the economy went worse in 1996 Ansonia was freed.
Union of Samera (1996-1998)
Samera declared independence and became Union of Samera. Samera had fixed the economy in 1997. Prior to that an political turmoil happened in 1997 which made Samera become the Republic of Samera
Republic of Samera (1998-present)
Republic of Samera was formed in 1998, Samera political turmoil soon was fixed when an presidential election happened that year. samera.geocities.com was registered on July 3, 1998 The Republic of East Tasmania tried to invade Samera but failed and took neighboring states instead.

2005 East Tasmanian invasion of Samera

Culture
The main language spoken in Samera is English and Samera. However the religion is disputed. The centre of the city of Anson Bay is apparently the geodesic dome called Teranskara which is an edifice of spiritual significance for practitioners of Integral yoga. It is based off Matrimandir in Auroville, India. Teranskara does not belong to any religion, Silence is maintained inside the Teranskara to ensure the tranquility of the space, and the entire area surrounding the Teranskara is called the Peace area. Inside the Teranskara, a spiraling ramp leads upwards to an air-conditioned chamber of polished white marble referred to as "a place to find one's consciousness".
Teranskara is equipped with a solar power plant and is surrounded by manicured gardens. When there is no sun or after the sunset, the sunray on the globe is replaced by a beam from a solar-powered light. Teranskara is an cultural icon in Samera, However before the construction of Teranskara in 2011, People usually stereotype Samera as worshipping skyscrapers to mock Samera's development and cities as it has skyscrapers and crazy construction workers. The official instrument of Samera is the siontak. The official flower of Samera is the Abelia. Major religious festivals are public holidays.
Arts
Samera is known for its creative arts. Sameran arts are highly based off art pieces in Auroville, India for a reason as it is highly modeled after Auroville execpt for that there are laws, school curriculums and much more that Auroville does not have.
Cuisine
In Samera food is mostly spicy due to Tasmania's cold weather. The most popular of which is the Sameran barbeque which people highly says that is is the national dish of Samera but however it is just an cooking method. Another dish that is widely regarded as the national dish is apparently Anson Bay soup. Other than Anson Bay soup and Sameran barbeque there is also Lamb curry, Chapati, Grilled lobster and Shabu. However immigrant foods such as Gyoza (commonly lamb), Sushi, Sánbusak and Kebabs are also eaten. Drinks are commonly Kovtar chai (Kovtar tea) or Kava.
