Huajiang (Pronounced /xwá tɕjáŋ/, Standard Huajiangese: 花江共和国; Alphabetized Huajiangese: Huājiāng Gònghéguó; lit. Flower Republic) is a sovereign state in East Serica. Huajiang is located on the Di Peninsula, the northern peninsula of Serica, and includes the Shangchan Islands east of the Di Peninsula. Huajiang is bordered by Guakok to the West and maintains an enclave in its borders, Tangdi. Huajiang's population is one of the largest in the world at 102 million people, and the largest population in Serica. Huajiang is also one of the largest countries in the world with 4,084,270 square kilometres (1,576,945.46 sq mi)

Huajiang is the homeland of the Qi people, one of the oldest cultures in the world. The Qi people are widespread throughout modern-day Serica, and are believed to have originated from the Qi Confederation. The Qi Confederation's hypothesized territory included the Jiasha River and the Gao'an River, however it is also believe they inhabited the entire south coast of the Di Peninsula. Over time, the Qi Western Migration took place, which marked the end of the Qi Confederation after its split along cultural-linguistic lines. After the breakup of the Qi Confederation, Huajiang split during the Fractured Era in 215 B.C.E., as the political system started to revolve around dynasties. A coalition led by the Zhu Dynasty seized power and proclaimed Gao'an the capital of Huajiang. Power remained firmly in the Zhu Dynasty. The time between the beginning of the Zhu Dynasty's lifespan and the end was known as the Zhu Golden Era, which lasted between 215 B.C.E. and ended in 191 C.E. in the Blood Dragon Revolt by the Dashaan. This catapulted Huajiang into anotherfracture, and was reunited by the Guanghua Dynasty in 212 C.E.. This oversaw another fracture after the end of the Guanghua Era, and the Guakok War which solidified Guakok independence from Huajiang. The Third Fractured Era began in 235 C.E. and ended with the succession of the Ling Dynasty. The Ling Dynasty instituted what is known as the Ling Reforms, which disenfranchised warlords and landlords and empowered the government, which prevented any more fractures afterward until the Dashaan Fracture in 1011 C.E.

Dynastical rule ended in 1881 after the Gao'an Revolt, which saw Huajiang fracture between three major factions after the death of the then dynastic ruler Ling Hezhu. The Gao'an Revolt was followed by the Huajiang Civil War which saw the Konghetang come to power. The beginning and the end of the Great Continental War saw Huajiang attempt to exert its power over other Serican nations, with limited success. After the end of the Great Continental War, Huajiang went through the Great Nationalization. This led to a shifting of the political shift towards nationalism and towards the creation of the 1972 Serican Accords and the creation of the International Serican Council.

History

Prehistory

Archaeological evidence supports that Huajiang has inhabited by hominids since 2.3 million years ago. The oldest provable trace of life comes from several skeletons known as Jinsha Skeletons found along the Jinsha River Valley which dates back to around 700,000 years ago. Early hominids who lived within Huajiang during this time period were hunter-gatherers. Recent studies indicate that hunter-gatherers tended to live next to rivers and within the Jinsha River Valley as well as the Gao'an River. As time moved on, the hominids inhabiting Huajiang advanced, leaving more intricate evidence, such as more intricate cave painting and evidence of proto-writing found in several caves. In Dashaan, several Boar Tusk Stones, an ancient megalith are abundant within certain areas.

Hunter-gatherer societies began to move towards agriculture and the development of crops. In 10,000 B.C.E. excavations point to the Yushu Civilization, which consisted of pottery, before moving towards agriculture around 9000 B.C.E. Around the time of the development of cultivated rice which appeared in the Gao'an River in 8000 B.C.E. pointing to the introduction to another civilization, the Gao'an Civilization. The Gao'an Civilization began making progress in the development of crops and civilization, developing the proto-writing system of Chusheng.

Around 4000 B.C.E. two other cultures arose in Huajiang, the Jinsha Civilization and the Zhuang Civilization. All cultures had switched towards an agriculture diet and developing culture and civilization. During 4000 B.C.E. it is often referred to as the Bronze Age. Metallurgy appeared with the Gao'an Civilization, where bronze artifacts were often created. During this time Qi script continued to evolve over time, with the Chusheng script still remaining as the only form of Qi script.

Early Dynastic Rule

Early Dynastic Rule emerged with the merging of the Jinsha Civilization and the Gao'an Civilization, with the new dynasty, the Long Dynasty emerging in 2200 B.C.E.. The Long dynasty that is described in literature during this time is often regarded as mythical, with the Long Dynasty being tied to the Long Pottery Line. The Long Pottery Line is a series of pots that date to 2000 B.C.E. and contain examples of Qi Bronze Inscriptions. The remains of the Long Pottery inscriptions talks of the song that the Sovereign, Jiong that he sang of the rise of the Long Dynasty is scant detail. The Long Dynasty was afterwards succeeded by the Hai Dynasty, which ruled from the Jinsha River in 1600 B.C.E.

During the Early Dynastic Rule, most other Civilizations that were not connected to the Jinsha or Gao'an Rivers still existed. Several other known dynasties have been known to inhabit the Bei Peninsula Coast, known as the Bei Dynasties. Bei Dynasties existed outside of the areas of control from the Jinsha and Gao'an Civilizations, the most notable of which was the Zhuang Dynasty. The Bei Dynasties control ended around 1000 B.C.E. with the Long Dynasty taking hold of the territory.
