Hjaltland, formally the Kingdom of Hjaltland, is an island nation located in the North Sea, in Northern Europe. It is located on the 60th Parallel North. Hjaltland has no land borders, however, it shares the North Sea with Great Britain (Scotland, through the Orkney Islands) to its south-west and Norway to its East. The country’s territory is comprised of 5 main islands (Nordmaven, Yell, Unst, Feltar and Megenland) and around 300 satellite islands and skerries. Together, they make up the Hjaltland archipelago. The capital of Hjaltland is Larvick, which is also its largest city. With a population of 2,113,118, Hjaltland is the fifth most populated Nordic country.

The region that makes up present-day Hjaltland has been inhabited since at least the Mesolithic period. The Picts were the original inhabitants of the islands, before the Scandinavian conquest and subsequent colonisation in the Early Middle Ages. Hjaltland has been an independent state since at least the mid-9th or early 10th century, making it one of the oldest continuously independent nations in the world. The modern-day borders of Hjaltland have been extant since the Cession of Orkney in the mid-15th century.

Hjaltland has an oceanic climate, complex geology, a rugged coastline and largely low-rising topology.
