Rynion, officially The People's Republic of Rynion is a nation in Nyancipe Island, Southeast Asia, located between Taiwan and the Pacific Ocean. Rynion is a Dominant-Party Democratic Socialist Republic with a semi-elected legislature and has a president as the head of state. It has 15 provinces which operates under the supervision of the state. The country shares land borders with Luchtvart,Ameno, and Canar.Despite its large population and densely populated regions, Rynion has vast areas of wilderness that support a high level of biodiversity.

The history of Rynion has been influenced by foreign powers drawn to its natural resources and soil fertility. It has been an important region for trade since at least the 13th century when the Nyancipe Empire traded with entities from mainland China and Asia. Muslim traders and Sufi scholars brought Islam. The British Empire conquered Nyancipe and brought Christianity. Rynion officially gained independence after a partition drafted by the British in 1919. Rynion was absorbed by the Socialist Federation of Nyancipe in 1950. The SFN forged strong alliances with the Soviet Union and nearby communist states until its collapse in 1980.

Rynion consists of three main native ethnic and linguistic groups, with the largest—and politically dominant—ethnic group being the Rynaians. A shared identity has developed, defined by a national language, ethnic similiarity, and a history of colonialism and rebellion against it. Rynion's national motto,"We Who Were Nothing Shall Be All", articulates the spirit of their people who oppose against frequent intervention by foreign powers that shape the country throughout its history . The economy is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Incomes are distributed extremely evenly with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens. The country has abundant natural resources like oil and natural gas, tin, copper, and gold. Agriculture mainly produces oats, palm oil, rice, tea, and coffee. Rynion major trading partners are Japan, South Korea, ASEAN Countries Russia,and China. Rynion is a member of several multilateral organisations, including the UN, WTO, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, and East Asia Summit.

Etymology

The word "Rynion" derives from the Welsh word for hulled oats. The term was used by British settlers in the mid 18th century to designate the most fertile part of Nyancipe Island and its native tribes on the area refered to as "Rynionians" or the "Rynai Tribe". The word "Rynion" wasn’t widely used until the British divided the island into 7 republics and one of them was named Rynion. During the SFN, Rynion was widely known by the rest of the world as the agricultural powerhouse of the SFN.

However, the island itself was named after the longest river in Asia by Chinese explorers. It was named "Yangtzi" but later called "Nyancipe" due to different language between them and the native islanders. "Nyancipe" was widely known during the Nyancipe Empire.

History

Early History

Humans arrived from Asia through a landbridge approximately between 60,000 and 100,000 years ago. Skeletal remains suggests that Homo Sapiens and Homo Erectus coexist in Nyancipe. Around 5000 BC, inhabitants of the island developed agriculture. The perfect climate of the island makes it ideal for the cultivation of various plants including wheat, corn, and oats

Tribal Eras

Typical tribal house

As the inhabitants of the Island develop, many tribal communities emerge and rule small portions of land scattered throughout the island. The Kicens emerge on the eastern parts of Nyancipe, while Rynians to the west and Canarians to the south. Tribal communities typically consist of a few houses, a large farmland, and storage huts. Although the full extents of their territories are unknown, archeological evidence from 4500 BC suggests that the current territories of Macra, Kicen, and Luchtvart are far less populous than any other part of the island. Modern-day Rynion was home to the Rynians which were the largest tribal community in the area.

Communities make it easier for technology to advance. In 3200 BC, they began to develop sophisticated writing systems and advanced stone tools and weapons. Wars are fought frequently by tribal communities over food and territory claiming dozens of lives.

Unification and Formation of the Nyancipe Empire

From the 13th century until the 17th century, the island was unified under the Nyancipe Empire. The Nyancipe Empire was formed after a massive 10-year war between three large tribal communities of Canari, Rynai, and Kicens that claimed the lives of almost 7.000 people. In the early years of the war, the Canarians dominated southern Nyancipe after a large battle with Rynai claiming 2.000 lives which severely weakens the Canarians. Rynaians and Kicens fought for territories on modern day Ameno. After 4 years of stalemate, Rynaians and Kicens agreed on a peace treaty and merged their territory. The joint Kicen-Rynai tribes fought back against the Canarians and after a decisive victory at the battle of Harkuz, the Canarians offered to join the alliance and establish a newly unified empire with the capital in Kamya.

The Nyancipe trades with various empires across the globe from the Ottoman Empire to the Qing Dynasty and also many other kingdoms in Asia. Most of their exports are agricultural products, fish and minerals. Influence from this era can be seen in the modern day as religion, predominantly Islam and Confucianism, as well as languages like Arabic and Malay. Technological advancements flourished in the empire with significant advancements in agricultural,mining,seafairing,etc.

Fall of Nyancipe Empire and British Colonization

British colonists arriving in Nyancipe

The British Empire arrived in Nyancipe in the late 17th century. Britain declares war against the Nyancipe Empire in the early 18th century. The war was fought for 4 years, hundreds of thousands of Nyancipians died which severely reduced the population and as much as 1.000 British soldiers. The war finally ended with the collapse of the Nyancipe Empire in 1807. Britain began colonizing and settling on the island. They enslaved the locals into working on fields and mines throughout the island. Millions of Nyancipian suffered under colonial rule. Britain’s colonization of Nyancipe brought Christianity and English to the island.

World War 1 and Nyancipian Partition

After WW1, The British Empire's economy was nearing a collapse. They began drawing plans of a Nyancipian Partition. They divided the island into 7 independent republics according to the different ethnic groups; Kicen, Luchtvart, Dovia, Macra, Rynion, Ameno, and Kanar. They implemented the plan on March 3rd 1919 which resulted in a mass displacement of people moving to their ethnic states. The move went smoothly however unlike the Britihs had expected. A strong sense of nationalism grew upon the native islanders of which the desire to having their own homelands were finally fulfilled.

The newly founded Republic of Rynion drafted its constitution on July 17th and came into effect a few months later in October. The first presidential election on New Year’s Eve 1920 elected Karzai Mik as President. The economy was heavily depended on agriculture with the agriculutral sector acocunting for 75% of the entire state economy.

Japanese Invasion during World War 2

In February 1942, Imperial Japan launched a full-scale invasion on Nyancipe. Rynion and its allies (6 other countries on the island) formed a Joint Military called the Markidan, consisting of 60.000 troops to counter the Japanese invasion. The first campaign against the Japanese took place in the ports of Northern Luchtvart and Kicen of which thousands of Japanese and Markidan casualties. Japanese forces came out victorious after a month of fighting. Japanese forces steam-rolled through Nyancipe taking large parts of the Island within 3 months. The last Markidan forces were surrounded in Rynion and surrendered on November 21st, 1942. Nyancipe was under Japanese control until 1945.

SFN and the Cold War

Nyancipe-Soviet Summit 1961

Seeing the success of the Soviet Union during WW2, Luchtvart, Dovia, Macra, and Kicen merged and formed the Socialist Federation of Nyancipe (SFN) on February 6th, 1949. For the next 10 months, war broke out between the new SFN and the surrounding states on the island including Rynion. The war resulted in Socialist victory and the whole island fell into socialism. In 18th of December, the Socialist Party of Nyancipe (SPN) was founded by Akdu Kivan. The socialist party started purging political opposition in February 1950. All who dare to speak out against their rule was executed, deported, or imprisoned. The collectivization of farmlands and industries started in June the same year. Millions of people are forced to work in fields and factories all across the island with minimum rations and pay. By 1952, all industries within the Republics of the SFN become state-owned.

During 1953 – 1962, the SFN establish close ties with the Soviet Union and China. Soviet intelligence officers are often stationed in Nyancipe as a base of operations for their espionage missions in Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia. The Sino-Soviet split did a massive blow to the SFN's economy because much of the people depended on foreign aid,

During the height of the Vietnam War, SFN aided the North Vietnamese by supplying weapons, ammunition, and food. Although no records exist on how much aid was going into North Vietnam, experts estimate that around 10% of North Vietnamese weapons and ammunition, as well as 16% of rations, come from SFN. Soviet intervention in the Middle East and Afghanistan prompted the SFN to increase their military spending and send troops to fight alongside Soviet forces. As of 1980, SFN sends over 10.000 troops to Afghanistan and military spending accounted for 35% of the national budget.

Fall of SFN

The SFN economy was failing in the 1980s due to overspending in the military. People all across the Federation are starving and angry. With the death of Premier Heinz Ardal, his successor Karvin Lat sought to revitalize the economy by allowing private ownership of businesses and loosening regulations on free speech. The people who had been oppressed for decades took to the streets of the Federation’s capital. The Nationwide revolution against the Federation lasted from 9 June until 10 August 1983.

Students protesting in the Capital

The revolt began as a student protest, which attracted thousands as they marched through central Harkuz to the Socialist Party Parliament building, calling out on the streets using a van with loudspeakers. A student delegation, entering the radio building to try to broadcast the students' demands, was detained. When the delegation's release was demanded by the protesters outside, they were fired upon from within the building by the Federation’s Security Police (FSP). This was the start of the revolution. As the news spread, disorder and violence erupted throughout the capital.

The revolt spread quickly across Nyancipe, and the government collapsed. Thousands organized into militias, battling the FSP. Pro-Socialist and FSP members were often executed or imprisoned, and former political prisoners were released and armed. A new temporary government formally disbanded SFN and establishes the Re-independence of the 7 republics. By 9th of August, fighting had almost stopped, and a sense of normality began to return.
