Westermarc is not a dependency of Westria, and not an Autonomous Region.  Westria and Westermarc together form what is known as The Westrian Realm, all of which is administered by the BWA (Bureau of Westrian Affaires) and considered the homeland of all Westrians.  The states of Westermarc have the same status as the states of Westria.

Westermarc is a part of former Terramarc, over which the BWA has assumed authority in June of 298.  Since then, Westermarc has become the home nation for Westrians on the Old Continent.  Although the largest portion of the population of Westermarc is Westrian, because a large Westrian minority was already present in Terramarc before BWA administration, and due to heavy influx of Westrian immigrants after the takeover by the BWA, there are of course other large ethnic groups present, especially in the Urban Centers.  Thus Westermarc, unlike Westria proper, is a very multi-national state, and the culture of the region reflects the influences of the many different peoples which live here.
