Tsanga (pronounced [Tsɑːŋgə]), officially the Federal Republic of Tsanga, is a country in North Takaria. It is the second most populous country in Takaria after Locotima, and one of the most densely populated nations on Telrova. Tsanga is situated between the Nyeupe-bluu Mountains to the north, and the Ndefu river system to the south; it covers an area of 662,937 square kilometres (255,961 sq mi), with a population of almost 73 million within its 5 constituent states and single federal territory. Tsanga borders Austerland to the north, and Locotima to the south. The nation's capital is Anklomji and its financial centre is Lacag; the largest urban area is the Mto.

The post-Fakhri period was tumultuous, with many military coups and coup attempts shaking the country from 2008 to 2026. Tsanga was under Emergency Law from 2025 to 2026, effectively suspending most constitutional protections for citizens. In 2026, Tsanga was engulfed by a brief civil war, ending in the expulsion of Nia Sauda and the election of Musa Imari in the 2026 general elections.

Etymology

The name Tsanga is derived from the river Tsan, meaning "Land of the river Tsan". First attested in the T'vezian king Musa Mudde II's 627 'Usimamizi wa Ardhi'. The name is not completely understood and is difficult to trace back earlier than the 4th century AD, but a connection to the Proto-Mrefuti word szean ("to pray", "sky", "god") and its derivative seen ("personhood", "grounded") is proposed by Shabani Nonda. The meaning may be further extended to "people" or "to settle", and so, in the derivative, the "settled people". Tribal groups in North Takaria with phonologically close names were frequently described in similar terms, as the San-nit, a component of the "Five Tribes", which during the 4th century were portrayed as both: "religious" and "settled".

 ==Etymology==
-The name Tsanga is derived from the river Tsan, meaning "Land of the river Tsan". First attested in the T'vezian king ?'s 627 'Usimamizi wa Ardhi'. "Tsan" was the medieval name of the classical Mpaki 'Szaen'. The name is not completely understood and is difficult to trace back earlier than the 4th century AD, but it is possibly derived from the Proto-Mrefuti word 'saliaeni' ("to pray", "sky", "god") and its derivative 'salni' ("personhood", "grounded"). The meaning may be further extended to "people" or "to settle", and so, in the derivative, the "settled people". Tribal groups in North Takaria with phonologically close names were frequently described in similar terms, as the San-nit, a component of the "Five Tribes", which during the 4th century were portrayed as both: a "superstitous" and "settled".
