Bansunay (/bænsʌneɪ/; Bansunese: Bansunai, pronounced: /bɑːŋsʊnaɪ/), poetically referred to as Tanah Bansunai (lit. Land of Bansunay)[1] is a nation in Isuan, bordering Songha to the west, Trenggulun to the east, and the Sea of Qes to the north. It is around 667,566 square kilometres, and has a population of almost 30 million people. The national government, based in the planned city of Kubujuara, is a presidential republic, but Bansunay is comprised of several federal entities that retain certain powers and privileges.
Bansunay was one of the first places in Isuan to develop rice agriculture, with its fertile fields and river valleys playing host to a multitude of independent states. These polities usually settled their differences in ritual battles, rather than in true warfare. Alawokambese influence began to spread westwards along the coast in the 8th century, bringing the practice of Macakkanism into the region; it was in this period that the coastal cities grew larger than their inland counterparts.
Rythene extended its control over much of northern Bansunay in the 17th century, although this was mostly an ancillary endeavour to consolidate its Songhese territories. Its influence waned after the Great Upheaval, replaced by a waxing Tyrnican presence. Both Auressian empires failed to expand southwards, limited to the coastline by geographic constraints. The disgruntled inland states aligned with the Trenggulun All-Peoples Congress and Songha during the First Great War, driving Tyrnican influence out of Isuan entirely.
After its independence was recognised in the Treaty of Arden, a series of military cliques consolidated the emerging Bansunese government into a cohesive national administration. Bansunay aligned with Imperial Songha in the Sea of Qes crises in the 1920s and 30s, culminating in the outbreak of the Second Great War. Bansunese forces were involved in fronts against Albrennia, Trenggulun, Blayk, and Rythene, but were ultimately defeated by the Coalition. Bansunay was occupied from 1943 until 1950, leading to a large degree of Albrennian economic investment.
Bansunay is closely affiliated with Songha, with the pair forming the centre of the informal grouping known as the Ngtkip Pact. However, a significant portion of the Bansunese economy comprises subsidiary companies of Albrennia’s Pillars — most prominently Reynolds Midland & Co. — which is a significant cause of geopolitical tension in Isuan. Bansunay is a significant exporter of rice, rubber, palm oil, and coffee.
Etymology
“Bansunay” is the Rythenean translation of the native “Bansunai”; more correctly spelt Bansungai. Sungai is the Bansunese word meaning river, referring to the multitude of rivers that flow through the country. There have been several proposed explanations for the ban- prefix, mostly deriving from the Bansunese language.
- banyak (many); “many rivers”
- bangun or bangkit (to rise)'; "rising rivers", referring to the propensity for the rivers to flood during monsoon season
- bangsa (people); “people rivers”, meaning that Tanah Bansunai might mean “land of the people of the rivers”
History
Colonial Period
Rythenean colonisation
Tyrnican colonisation
- Tyrnicans attempt to penetrate the interior with ironclads/river monitors; they succeed in maintaining tenuous control of Bidang Lumpur for 5 years before the governor defects
- Construction of railways
Geography
The Bansunese section of the Ambulus mountain range rises higher than in Trennggulun or Songha (the Bai’aksia Mountains).
- ↑ The term Tanah Bansunai is not typically translated into Rythenean as "Land of Bansunay".
