Caledonia (Superpowers)

Caledonia (Scotland) or Pictavia is a province of the Imperium Romanum. Bordering Magna Britannia and Cambria to the South, Caledonia is the second northernmost Roman province in Europe, and the fourth northernmost Roman province in Eurasia. In addition to its mainland, Caledonia consists of over 790 islands, including the Haebrides and the Insulae Septentrionalae.

Though it is dotted by many small cities, over half of the province's population is concentrated in the Municipality of Correlia, its capital. This large city of 7,430,000 inhabitants is the fourth most prosperous trading center on the West Coast of Europe, as well as the second most populous city of the Isles.

Though Caledonia has vast plains much likes the southernly Great Britain, the land is mostly unsuitable for agriculture and so the province is not the agricultural powerhouse of its contemporary. One advantage it does have is that off its coast is located the largest oil reserves in all of Western Europe.

The province used to consist of Pict lands mostly dominated by the Caledonii tribes, among others. In 201 CE, the Emperor Sulla the Great invaded Pictavia with his battle hardened legions and over the course of a five year guerrilla war, eventually succeeded in conquering the remainder of the Island. Their ownership was only in name however until the foundation of Correlia in 223.
