The ''Republic of Naikang'' is the official {{wp|English language|Common}} name for the country. The Common name was formed by the [[Riamo|Riamese]], who had been colonial overlords of the region for centuries. Upon arriving in the region, the Riamese discovered the [[Beisin (region)|Beisin]] Chengshengese people, who themselves had many differing names for their region. Notably, the term ''Beisin'' has risen and fallen in popularity over time, but its application usually does not extend far into the highlands of the region. The original Riamese colony, known as the [[Riamese Naikang#Early colonisation|Tatchossey Colony]], had no term for the wider region. With the expansion of the colony into the mountains, the Riamese adopted the Chengshenese "乃扛", or ''Nài kāng''. It is believed that "乃扛" is a loanword from either [[Naichinese languages|Naichinese]] or [[Old Nahi language|Old Nahi]], with "乃" (''Nài'') being a shortened form of Naichinese ''na̤hî'' or Old Nahi ''nähi''. The etymology of ''nähi'' (from which ''na̤hî'' is descended) is a debated topic, but with the affix ''-hi'' referring to a people group or ethnicity, it is likely that the term is either derived from a contraction of ''na̤mhî'' meaning "honoured people", or a more direct translation of ''na̤hî'' meaning "people of the rings". Either by maintaining the link with the latter etymology or utilising it as a backformation, the [[Naikanghi people|Naikanghi]] people have maintained a defined culture around the collection and display of rings and other jewellery. The character "扛", or ''kāng'', is more than likely a 1:1 borrowing of the Naichinese ''káng'', usually referring to a confederation or union of tribes. The [[First Nahi Kang|First]], [[Second Nahi Kang|Second]] and [[Third Nahi Kang]] refer to the various unions of Naikanghi tribes, with that term eventually being used for the whole region. | |||

Naikang ([ˌnaɪ'kæŋ]; 乃扛(民國) - Chengshengese: Náikàng (Men'gue̤q), [nái.kʰàŋ mēn.kʊ̯ɤ̄ʔ]; Naichinese: Na̤îkáng (Men'ge̤), [nɘî.kʰáŋ mēn.kɛ̄]), officialy the Republic of Naikang, is a nation located in eastern Thrismari, bordering Chengsheng to the south. The country is also separated from the Kakish Tesjkvan Islands to the east by the Gulf of Kouma. The capital is the city of Tachusi.
Naikang has a fully tropical climate, and is affected by equatorial warm water currents along its coastline. The first known references to the region are records from the Kingdom of Gôma, referring to the "untamed frontiers" of the north. The native Nahi, while primitive, were known to be skilled at metallurgy, and were fiercely independent. Starting in the 11th Century CE, Chengshengese settlers began to settle the lowlands of the region, founding the first cities, many of which coincided with old Nahi settlements and adopted their names. Beginning in YEAR, Riamese explorers began to frequent the shores of the nation. By this point, it is known that the Chengshengese of the region were at least somewhat culturally distinguishable from those of the south, and the names "Naikang" and "Beisin" had begun to be assigned to the area.
The first permanent Riamese trading settlements were built in YEAR, followed by full colonisation of Naikang in YEAR. The descendants of the Nahi, now identified as the Naikanghi, engaged in a large-scale guerilla resistance against the Riamese. These attempts proved unsuccessful at doing much other than antagonising the colonial government, and Naikanghi were barred from most positions of power, while Changshengese individuals were granted minor roles in government. By the mid 18th Century, some sparse Myacha settlements had emerged in the mountains, potentially to capitalise on mountaineer mercenary contracts that Riamo issued, in the interests of attempted navigation of the mountains of Naikang. In 1950, after centuries of Riamese rule, Naikang gained independence, first as a unitary state, before swiftly undergoing a civil war that lasted 15 years, largely along ethnic lines. Finally, in 1971, the civil war concluded and Naikang became a federal republic, with four constituent states and one Federal Province encompassing the capital, Tachusi.
Naikang is defined as a developing country, exhibiting some of the lowest indicators of socioeconomic development in Anteria. Agriculture remains the dominant economic sector, with growth in textiles, construction, garments, mining, and tourism leading to increased foreign investment and international trade. There is also a growing secondary industry in Naikang, with automotive and agricultural machinery making up a great deal of the industry in the country.
Etymology
The Republic of Naikang is the official Common name for the country. The Common name was formed by the Riamese, who had been colonial overlords of the region for centuries. Upon arriving in the region, the Riamese discovered the Beisin Chengshengese people, who themselves had many differing names for their region. Notably, the term Beisin has risen and fallen in popularity over time, but its application usually does not extend far into the highlands of the region. The original Riamese colony, known as the Tatchossey Colony, had no term for the wider region. With the expansion of the colony into the mountains, the Riamese adopted the Chengshenese "乃扛", or Nài kāng. It is believed that "乃扛" is a loanword from either Naichinese or Old Nahi, with "乃" (Nài) being a shortened form of Naichinese na̤hî or Old Nahi nähi. The etymology of nähi (from which na̤hî is descended) is a debated topic, but with the affix -hi referring to a people group or ethnicity, it is likely that the term is either derived from a contraction of na̤mhî meaning "honoured people", or a more direct translation of na̤hî meaning "people of the rings". Either by maintaining the link with the latter etymology or utilising it as a backformation, the Naikanghi people have maintained a defined culture around the collection and display of rings and other jewellery. The character "扛", or kāng, is more than likely a 1:1 borrowing of the Naichinese káng, usually referring to a confederation or union of tribes. The First, Second and Third Nahi Kang refer to the various unions of Naikanghi tribes, with that term eventually being used for the whole region.
