The Janpian Union, officially known as the Janpian Union of Revolutionary States (JURS) or the United Revolutionary States of Janpia, is an island nation located in the East Hiakemirian Region of Esvanovia, bounded by the Janosche Ocean (Marinan) at the east, the Unschon Group of Islands at its west, the Sea of Sichanashi at its south, and the Sea of Magochyo to its north. Consisting of up to 6,354 islands, the Janpian archipelago has two main geographical divisions, with the west being the Unschon Island Group comprised of smaller islands, and the Janpian Home Islands, which include the mainland as well as its nearby island peripheries. It shares maritime borders with Atkemri to the west and the Neo-Korea at its Southwest. Janpia is a highly homogenous ethnic society with around 97.5% being Janosche, and the remaining for the visitors or Unschon Islands ethnic groups. Kalingrad is the largest city as well as its capital, with Darlinburg City, a former capital of the Janpian Empire, being regarded as its sole "sister" capital.

The Janpian Union, particularly the Janpian Union of Government Workers' Party (JUGWP), is considered as the successor of the Janpian Empire as well as the various pan-leftist party-factions during the Janpian Civil War. This came into conclusion after the establishment of the Janpian Union of Revolutionary States after 15 years of armed struggle, with all the warring leftist parties and factions uniting for a single vanguard party. Consequently, the former Imperial Janpian colonies of Unschon Islands came into integration to the Janpian core territories, with all the people in colonial domains being given the same rights similar to the ones in the mainland. Currently, the Janpian Union can be described as a Party-State where there is technically no state functionary, making it de jure a stateless domain. De-facto however, all the necessary state organs and political establishments are functioning within the Party itself, which acts more like the state instead.

Based on the Party's Revolutionary Ideals, the political organizations and among others within the Party are historically developed with the sole goal of spreading the Revolution abroad through armed means. Under this belief, many position titles such as the "People's Marshal" are used, which connotates the people and the military under their joint command. Ever since Great Rectification, the Party has slowly stabilized and opened over the years, which eventually led to the Miracle of the Munschen River in the 1980s, with the current continuous rise on the economy attributing to its gradual transition to market-socialist economy.

According to the Revolutionary ideals, the revolution itself is not yet over as the world is still not enlightened or beholden by the Revolution. The goal of the revolution is to bring true peace, stability, equality, and harmony to all nations through leftist ideals by destroying Janpian enemies and counter revolutionaries in any manner. If all of this is finished, the Party, along with the rest, will dissolve itself, creating a stateless, classless society of communes.

Etymology

The term Janpia came from the name of a 1st Era warlord, Janosche III. He is responsible for uniting all the tribes and kingdoms of Janpia in a bloody campaign, which eventually united the Janpian mainland and forming an early national identity. The followers of Janosche III were later called Janosche, also known as Janpians. 

Another term for Janpia is "Dabun Javosch." When translated to Janpian, it literally means "the land of the dead emperors", given that a lot of places were named after the death places of kings, emperors, or their lineage.

One of the examples is when King Magochyo of Munschen escaped to the northern sea in order to evade Janosche's army. He was never seen or found ever again. Thus, the sea where he escaped is called the Sea of Magochyo.

Another example is the term "Janpia" or "Janosche," which means followers of King Janosche III. For many centuries, Janpia was ruled by the Janosche family, who had direct lineage to King Janosche III. They even managed to remain as "Emperors" during the colonial years of the 2nd Era. However, during the 4th era, the entire lineage of Emperor Janosche III and its followers were brutally killed during the civil war.

History

Main article: Janpian History

In accordance to the Schonghue belief, ancient Janpian historians have set the basis of dividing the history of Janpia to the current Edict of Heavens, and counting the years and time depending on to it. The idea is that the rules of society varies per eras as granted by the higher edict, which grants and legitimize the rule or authority of a certain regime or dynasty, enforcing the mystical idea of myriad rule. Given how the current Janpian years are counted on eras, modern Janpian historians still use the edicts as a way to determine the exact date of an historic event, and to who's rule was it actually placed

Geography

Janpia is comprised of 6,354 islands, both habited and uninhabited, which are divided on to two main geographical divisions: The Janpian Home Islands, and the Unschon Island Group.

The Janpian Home Islands, the largest of the two, are mainly made up of arable plains and forests, which make up 82% of the island's topography, with the rest reserved for the mountain ranges. It is bounded by the Janpian Sea (Marinan Ocean) at the east, the Unschon Island Group at its southwest, the Sea of Sichanashi to the south, and the Sea of Magochyo to the north. Running between the island is the Munschen River, which cuts from Sichanashi Bay to the Munschen Harbor at the north. The Great Janpian Middle Plains covers the entire extent between the east and west coasts, with the midlands mostly filled with rivers and estuaries making the land fertile, arable, and habitable. Historically, the middle Janpian plains have been the central cradle of Schonghue civilizations and it is currently where the most population resides. The plains also offer a safe distance from the current known active volcanoes as well, making it a viable choice to farm and thrive.

The other main island group is the Unschon Island Group, which is comprised of small western group of volcanic islands separated from the peripheries of the Janpian Mainland. These islands are primarily habitable and has a different climate from the mainland due to its topography and general location. Its total landmass is much smaller than the Janpian Home Islands, and it is the home of about a million people.

The deepest geographic location in Janpia is Trench 122, located at the Bay of Sichanashi at a depth of 8,020 meters, while the highest point is Mount Asentokai at the Schikali Mountain Range, which goes to a height of 3,800 meters. The longest running river would be the Munschen River, while the largest freshwater lake would be the ancient Lake Truschina.

The Janpian Home Islands was formed over 450 million years ago due to the subduction of the Marinan plates with the Hiakemirian plates, causing magma to rise which now solidified itself as the Janpian archipelago. Subsequently, the Unschon Island Group was also formed along the subduction lines, which created volcanic activity, forming the current islands today. Janpia is part of the Marinan Ring of Fire and is considered to have one of the largest number of volcanoes in the world, with more than 108 active volcanoes on both land and underwater features. Regardless, being placed in the Marinan Ring of Fire makes Janpia prone to earthquakes, tsunamis, or volcanic eruptions, making it one of the highest in terms of natural disaster risk as proven by the 1923 Kayacha Earthquake which has killed over 110,000 people, or the 1986 Noteruboro Earthquake which also caused a tsunami that killed over 10,000 people.

Climate

Janpia generally has a fairly maritime temperate climate for the majority of its areas, experiencing winters from November to February and temperate climates for the rest of the months. There is also a wet monsoon season from June to July, or summer to early autumn, given that Janpia is also sitting on a typhoon belt where there are more frequent low-pressure areas.

In general, the climate in Janpia may vary depending on the season as well as the general location from the north to south. In particular, the northern areas typically experience humid continental climates with much longer winters and cooler summers. In the south, particularly in the Unschon, Kateyeschin, and Sanoterei Domains, the summers have a humid subtropical climate with a somewhat longer wet season. The Northern Sea also brings cold winter winds towards the south, bringing heavier snowfall particularly in the Alevayev, Beluren, Neluren, Marischa, and Hanscho Domains. Areas around the Avescho and Kateyeschin Domain also experience Foehn phenomenon due to the Koroschukai Mountain Range and the Schikali Mountain Range respectively.

Biodiversity

Natural life in Janpia includes an abundant amount of animals which are often categorized between migratory to native and endemic species. In this regard, migratory species account for up to 50,000 of the animal types in Janpia, such as the blue whales, whooper swans, and red-crowned cranes. This is quite large in comparison to about 279 endemic species in Janpia, such as the red-bellied raven, Janpian golden eagle, Yongschin dog, Janpian tree sparrow, and Truschina sardines. Regardless, biodiversity in Janpia is categorized as temperate broadleaf with mixed forests, with some well-known endemic plant life such as the popular Janpian deep red maple, and the corpse flower.

Politics

The Janpian society under the Janpian Union of Government Workers' Party ardently rejects the idea of a state and a government over Janpia, in line with its revolutionary nature and lorist ideals. This makes Janpia a stateless society without any de-jure official government functionaries or enforcers of law. However, de-facto, the Party assumes the role of the state, complete with its own armed wing under the Janpian Union of Revolutionary Forces, and laws enforced by the Public Marshal Commission. In some technicalities, the concept of citizenship was rejected in favor of the term "Party Membership", the court was substituted for a tribunal, and the structure of the Party rejects itself as a form of government. This type of arrangement has been termed as a "Party-State" in which there is no official state, but the Party. Despite this, the Party is still represented internationally as the Janpian Union of Revolutionary States.

Regardless, the Janpian Union of Revolutionary States is a Unitary Lorist Party-State in which the Party is separated by four branches: The Office of the People's Marshal, the Party Central Committee, the Union of Party Members Committee, and the Revolutionary Ministry of the Workers' Union.
