Hexia (officially the Constitutional Kingdom of Hexia) is a constitutional monarchy in the northern extremity of North America.

The historical origins of Hexia date back to 1991, where steampunk was all the rage. The English people were dominant in the American South, and they are where and who the Hexic people originated from. In 2010, six steampunk teens constructed a language called Hexic, which appears to be a Celtic language closely related to Welsh and Manx. They decided to teach their friends the language, and its popularity grew. In 2011, the American Society of Hexic Speakers (colloquially "the Ectophrax") was formed and assisted teens learning Hexic. In 2022, the six teens along with the Hexic people, now adults themselves, negotiated with Canada to give up the sparsely populated northern third of their nation, which would soon become Hexia.

The Hexic people first settled at the mouth of the Mackenzie River in 2024. One person, John Yesler, claimed to see a ghost living near his house, and the Hexic words "spokidydd" and "navallyth" (meaning "spook by the river" in English) gave rise to what the settlement is now called, Spookinawa.

Spookinawa became a major city (and the capital of Hexia) with over 1,500,000 inhabitants by 2045. Unknown to the Spookinawans, a new city had been founded, Dixnagis (the name means "tenth city" in Hexic). Dixnagis is in the northernmost reaches of the Canadian Great Plains and is the capital of the province of Badagascar. On the other side of Hudson Bay, there is a province called Sudria (the name comes from the province's resemblance to the fictional Island of Sodor, with its extensive railway system and its Celtic look and feel). Cros-ny-Keltaidd is the capital of Sudria, and 98% of the population can speak Hexic.

Hexia declared independence from Canada on September 12, 2052. The first monarch was Queen Cortana I, and was, ironically, Kalin Johnson, one of the six original teens. The Hexian Parliament consisted of 25 representatives, each elected by the Cabinet, which was in turn elected by the people. The monarch is not elected; his/her blood line dictates who is next in line for the Hexian throne.
