The Republic of Castoria seceded from an un-named country or attained independence from an un-named colonial power on June 30, 1818. Castoria evolved into
Patria and the name "Castoria" fell out of use by the late 70's. Patria remained a liberal, secular republic until 1989-90, when the "Dharmic Revolution" inculcated eastern spirituality, yoga and Hinduism, and transformed Patria into a de facto Hindu theocracy although the constitution guarantees complete religious freedom and the rights of non-Hindus.
