Zeiberland: Difference between revisions

The language of Zeiberland is Zeibear. It is spoken by almost 95% of the population. Zeiberland has three main species who are all treated equally. However all the species other than Elves, Nekomimi and Humans are treated poorly as they make up a very small percentage of the Zeibeshzeibeṣ population. Zeiberland also treats all religions other than Maism as a pest.

This country was officially formed on January 22 1819. The flag, also known as '''je royel drapodrapō tricolurtricōlur''<nowiki/>' (the royal tricolour), has three stripes representing the three species of Zeiberland; blue representing Elves, red representing Nekomimi and black representing Humans.

Around 200BCE, a group of people arrived at the island that is now known as Nordail. They built a small settlement there and for almost 3 centuries, no one was aware of a larger island. Circa 120 was when the foreign settlers realised that the 'larger jungle area' was in fact a peninsula that was inhabited. The two groups of settlements slowly mingled. There was one peaceful empire with only two large settlements, mõnstadmonstad and nordail. The Zeibear language, then known as Azana, had been fleshed out into a logo-syllabary. It's phonemes were very different and not many spoke it. Greater Alagad was thought to have been formed around the 870s making it one of the oldest cities in Zeiberland. The years until the early 800s were mostly uneventful, with the Zeibeshzeibeṣ people expanding their territories. Then one day, a ship sailed into the region west of MõnstadMonstad. These were Salovian explorers who eventually brought with them human settlers. This also bought with them the religion of Thaerism. Those foreigners who hadn't joined the Zeiban(then called Seyban) settled north of the Hlu river. This gave rise to the Eizyue empire. The Eizyue empire was the only state in the history of the peninsula to have given attention to the race of its people. It was primarily humans and a supressed minority of elves. The Eizyue empire became a major threat to the Zeiban empire in the early 1200s. This caused a very big shift in the peninsula and thus began the age of conquest.

The peninsula was slowly divided into different kingdoms. There were three main kingdoms that would be prevalent until the early 1500s. The three were the Eizyuez, the Zeibans and the Leshmans. These emipres were fairly peaceful other than minor conflicts until 1367 when the Leshmans annexed a smaller state, Wañor(now WagnõrWagnor) which put them in direct contact with the Zeibans. Wañor was protected by Zeiban and when it was annexed, Zeiban, with its then ruler, Queen Khanzada II, decided to end the years of peace and one of the most important wars in the history of the peninsula begun. It lasted for almost 10 years from 1368 - 1377. The Leshmans were far weaker in terms of military strength. However their then ruler, Babar Majide won over the town of Savigle and Nemar fort. He was regarded as a tactical genius. However, he grew severely ill and his brother, Baad saw this opportunity and together with the Zeibans, assassinated Babar in 1375. Baad then was crowned ruler of Leshman, and Wañor was returned to the Zeibans. However, Baad wasn't satisfying with this deal and pretended to retreat while secretly setting up his troops to launch an attack on the retreating Zeban forces. However, Khanzada expected this and surprised Baad and killed him in the second battle of Wañor in 1376. The Leshmans kept fighting, however they were quickly overwhelmed and surrendered 8 months later. Thus ended the Leshman empire. The Zeibans annexed all territory to the north of Kanghiz (Now north Katalania). The small region below was freed from Leshman rule and thus came the region of Resenbool. Meanwhile, Eizyue prepared to launch an attack on the Zebans with their armies focused on the south. However, the winter of 1377 stalled the Eizyue long enough for the Zebans to march their armies back north. The Eizyue attack was slowed. However the Zeibans were weakened from battle with the Leshmans. The Eizyue wanted to take advantage of this and lauchlaunched an attack. They did, in 1378 and the Eizyue annexed some territory south of the Hlu river. However, after the death of their ruler, Armain Yegar due to disease, the Eizyue signed a peace treaty. It was taken over by a peace loving pacifist, Eidam Yegar from 1379 -1407. He was disliked by his own people and was gotten rid of a few years later. Eizyue expanded northward while Zeiban annexed Resenbool in 1421 and other smaller towns towards the centre. Only in 1442 did that peace shatter.

In 1842, a group of 30 or so thaerists came to together to form the Taybon association, later known as TAYIRISTIR. These people were thaerist extremists who believed that the Maists were plaguing their country and that the new atheist mindset would be the downfall of Zeiberland. They were based around the Thaerist village of tulagad in central Zeiberland which is presently towards the west of Alagad. Historically, the greater Alagad region was a thaerist hotspot (until the 'king's culling' incident). The taybon association took a violent approach to restoring thaerism. On the 19 July 1857, over a 100 tayristirs stormed the mayors office in Alagad with weapons. They burned down buildings and killed all the people who refused to join their cause. Many were killed or severely injured and on the 24 July, Zeibeshzeibeṣ military entered Alagad. An evacuation was called and the most tragic event took place since the end of the civil war. Over 300 civilians and military personnel were killed. They attackers were executed or sent to the maximum security prison. On the 11th of August, 1857, a law was passed preventing all thaerists from practicing their religion in public or even mention or supporting thaerists.

The Taybon was abolished in 1857, however, the laws that were formed after that incident caused many thaerists across the country to be angered and the succesor of the taybon was formed with the same name. By the 1870s, The new taybon association was formed. They were based in Tulagad and Ostenvil. This time, they had a much larger following. However, they didn't wish for any bloodshed and stuck to peaceful means. In 1888, with the new democratic government, the taybon formed a new political party called the TaibõnTaibon. It was a very small party and only in the 1908 election did it play a notable role. The government at that time wasn't happy with this. The taibõntaibon saw support from other countries. Thus, the TaibõnTaibon were to be assassinated. This went terribly and the TaibõnTaibon took advantage of the failed mission to throw light on the Zeiberland government. Many citizens were enraged, and to prevent things from worsening, the government loosened some anti-thaerist laws. However, the taibõntaibon wasn't satisfied. They pushed their luck and tried to start riots with their followers during the 1912 elections. However that got out of hand and the older president was killed and all the blame fell on the taibõntaibon. The party was to be dissolved and some members to be arrested. The leader of the taibõntaibon party, Kasim VolodimirVolōdimir, led his remaining followers into a storming of the parliament building. Many were killed and the members of the party were either sent to prison for life or sent to work in the slums of the country. Thaerists were once again viewed negatively.

Zeiberland is located on an island in south-west Yasteria. Zeiberland is neighboured by [[Lazlowia|Lazlowia and]] [[United Socialist Provinces of Rumrari|United Socialist Provinces of Rumrari.]] Zeiberland is made up of two islands, the main island and Nordail. Zeiberland has 4 major rivers flowing through it: ''Je Syein'' which comes from the [[United Socialist Provinces of Rumrari|Rumrari]] strait, ''J'ElanõrElanor'' which flows from the mountains in the heart of Zeiberland, ''Je Hangshañs'' flows through MõnstadMonstad and ''Je Hlu'' flows through Ostenvil. The Hangshañs and The Hlu have numerous settlements based on the river banks. The Hlu historically seperated the Eizyue empire from the Zebans. MõnstadMonstad and WagnõrWagnor are built on the banks of the Hangshañs river. Ostenvil was build on the banks of the Hlu river and Alagad, on the banks of the ElanõrElanor.
