Transia (Official name: Republic of Transia) is a fictional European country on the Earth of the Marvel Universe. It is one of several fictional countries in Eastern Europe created for Marvel Comics. In nearly all story lines, the Republic of Transia is located between Romania and Serbia. More than 90% of its people live in one large town (''East Transia'') and a number of smaller villages located at the base of Mount Wundagore. The country is presented as mainly Slavic, with a Muslim minority in the western province Romani. President Russoff was a Secret Police Official in the communist era. Within the Marvel Universe, Transia (and/or Mt. Wundagore) is where Chthon is imprisoned, and where the men of the Russoff line were afflicted with the curse of lycanthropy. It is used as the birthplace of Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. It is the base of operations for the High Evolutionary, and the source of the "radioactive clay" used by the Puppet Master. ==Publication history== According to researchers, the first appearance of Transia is in ''Avengers'' #33 (1966), however, it is not named in this comic. The country appears next in ''Thor'' #133-135 in which is it is established that Mount Wundagore belongs in a small country located in the Balkan Mountains. According to the ''Marvel Atlas'' (2008), Transia is first named in ''Thor'' #133 (1966). Other researchers state Transia is not named until ''Avengers'' #36 (1967). In ''Avengers'' #36, Transia is mentioned as a village at the base of Mount Wundagore. Later, Transia is referred to as a small country that encompasses Mount Wundagore. The country has since appeared in several other comics, including ''Iron Man'' and ''X-Men'' and continues to appear in Marvel Comics and other media. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Transia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
