Kernev, officially the Principality of Kernev (Kernevic: Pennsevigeth Kernev), is an island country in the northern Kivu Ocean. Consisting of the main island, and a number of smaller islands, it is 512 kilometres (318 mi) from the Island of X and 1,226 kilometres (762 mi) from mainland Ostlandet. The island forms a part of EASTERN PALEO ISLANDS. Its capital is the town of Lannstevan, though the largest town is Truru. There are no cities in Kernev.

The Isle of Kernev was uninhabited until 22 AD, when the first settlers from modern-day Paleocacher, arrived. Though the voyage to the isle from Ostlandet was highly perilous, the settlers survived owing in large part to the highly fertile soils of Kernev. The isle became well-established as a centre of mining within the 1st century AD, producing large quantities of tin and copper.

Although most tin mines closed in the mid-20th century, the discovery of Lithium deposits in the east of the isle has resulted in proposals to reopen former mines across the isle. Mining still forms a significant part of the Kernevic economy, however since 1932, the largest sector of the Kernevic economy has been tourism.

The Kernevic language is endemic to Kernev, and is linguistically isolated from its nearest language, Eusazy, which is co-official for international affairs in Kernev. Kernevic Jackian is a recognised regional language, owing to Kivuan colonisation in X, most Jackian speakers are concentrated in the east of the country. Jackian in Kernev is characterised by differing spelling conventions, a prominent rhotic tendency and a number of influences from native Kernevek.
