Oyussa, officially the '''Matriarchy of Oyussa''', is an island nation located in the [[Adisi Ocean]]. It comprises a larger northern island and a smaller southern isle. The small population of 3 million is almost entirely urbanized, concentrated mostly on the northern island. Oyussa's capital is [[Yulaa]] also being its largest city.


==Etymology==
==Etymology==
The origins of Oyus are not quite so specific, and could only be traced through folklore. The folktale, which has seen many different versions told, more or less has remained consistent around a few facts. A meeting between the three future unifying tribes of the island nation misunderstood each other. The Mer Tribe and Seca Tribe understood each other, having once been one larger tribe long ago. However, the third tribe, had a differing language and had been left relatively isolated. The other two tribes continually referred to them as the Oyus, and eventually the third tribe would adopt it. It is uncertain what it meant literally, but most suspect it was just an affirmative response. When unification came, for some reason the other two tribes were fond of the Oyus, adopting it as the official name of the principal island and country that is forged today.
Oyus is the shortened form of the more formal name of the native populace, known better as the Oyussa in later history. It isn't very clear what it specifically means, with only a vague idea being traced through folklore back to first contact with the outside world. It is believed to derive from a taunt thrown at imperialist foes that in turn somehow was applied to themselves as an identity. Previously, Oyussa was referenced as "people of Acona".

==History==
==History==
The beginning of Oyus' history is not certain, but most pick up where nomadic tribes somehow made it to the islands and settled and remained in isolation for centuries. Being a more isolated, smaller populace, the history is not as interesting as some might expect it to be.
(WIP. Explain the history of Acona.)
===Tribal Era===
 
The Tribal Era of Oyus spans the great majority of it's history. For many years, some 20 tribes are estimated to have existed on the islands, before slowly being meshed into one of three tribes: the Mer, the Seca, or the Oyus. At approximately 1478, progress to unification would begin to show when the three principal tribes began interacting, on more peaceful terms. Over the many years previously of constant fighting and conflict between the principal three, it took its toll, and the Oyus began feeling exhausted first, eventually convincing the Mer and Seca to an eternal white peace. The time immediately that followed were fragile ones, with tensions still being felt in the three-way rivalry. This white peace became more convincing to them though in 1507, when an unspecified expeditionary group lost its way and found itself on the isles. Their immediate encounter with these clearly technologically superior and advanced humans was nothing less than hostile, as the foreigners looked down upon them as savages and inferiors. The tribes found themselves unable to single handedly deal with this threat thrown upon them, realizing that perhaps it took more than just a village to stand for themselves. In 1509, the foreigners found themselves forced off the isles with decisive battles in favor of a united coalition. Per the account of a tribesman in the Mer, he claimed that the process of creating the united front perhaps intertwined the three tribes more than they intended to, showing that there was an understanding a need for cohesion. Their celebrations furthered this too, but the history of Oyus would have likely been very different had it not been for the well formed coalition overcoming a more powerful foe and threat. Over time, as the three principal tribes grew, so did their need to find more resources. Each tribe had something to offer the other, and ultimately trade in the 1700s would foster further positive relations.

===Government===
==Government==
[[File:POS Redhouse.JPG|300px|thumb|right|National Congress building in [[Yulaa]].]]
The governing body of Oyus is seen to be a sorts of mix with monarchy and technocracy, with a matriarchal tendency. From the relatively newly founded capital of Yulaa, the Oyus Matriarchy consists of two principal branches: an executive and a judiciary. The authors of the current constitution saw a great need to balance the unlikely possibility that those who rose in the executive would attempt to use judiciary powers to evade punishment, an abuse of powers. The executive branch in essence legislates and enforces their policies. The National Congress meets daily and consists of Ministers, Deputy Ministers, Assistant Ministers, heads of principal agencies under a ministry, the Kera (Head of State), and possibly the Crown Princess. Being that the island nation is smaller in population the government is unitary, and there is little autonomy afforded, the exception being that of municipalities, like villages or cities. The judiciary is staffed by the National Congress, with every appointment made by the Kera, and reviewed by an independent committee with no toes to the Keral family and Justice Ministry. Ultimately, judges are confirmed if other members of the National Congress take no issue with their ascension to their prospective post. Ministers and agency heads are also appointed by the Kera, though often time the process of filling the posts starts with the generation of a shortlist of recommendations to the Kera made internally by the respective ministry, with input from heads of agencies relevant to the operations of the post.

==Military==
===Foreign Relations===
Most combat in the history of Oyus has been internal conflict, which is largely no longer a concern since unification long ago. While a military is maintained, it is merely a self defense force from any foreign invaders. Thus, it is appropriately named the Oyusard Home Guard, divided between two branches: the Oyusard Army and the Oyusard Coastal Guard. Few are employed by the military actively. So few, in fact, it was once remarked by a former controversial mayor of Yulaa that the chief of the national police held more power, sway, and prestige, than the Minister of Defense. Despite it's relatively few active members, the Oyusard National Congress mandates compulsory reserve service upon turning the age of 18, with few exceptions-one being a volunteer for active service. The Oyusard Home Guard is often less a serious branch and seen as a very lax environment in peace time. In the limited times it has seen conflict, the general attitude changes almost overnight for some reason.

Oyussa, officially the Matriarchy of Oyussa, is an island nation located in the Adisi Ocean. It comprises a larger northern island and a smaller southern isle. The small population of 3 million is almost entirely urbanized, concentrated mostly on the northern island. Oyussa's capital is Yulaa also being its largest city.

Etymology

Oyus is the shortened form of the more formal name of the native populace, known better as the Oyussa in later history. It isn't very clear what it specifically means, with only a vague idea being traced through folklore back to first contact with the outside world. It is believed to derive from a taunt thrown at imperialist foes that in turn somehow was applied to themselves as an identity. Previously, Oyussa was referenced as "people of Acona".

The governing body of Oyussa is seen to be a sort of mix with monarchy, meritocracy, and technocracy, with a matriarchal tendency. From the relatively newly founded capital of Yulaa, the Matriarchy consists of two principal branches: an executive and a judiciary. The authors of the current constitution saw a great need to balance the unlikely possibility that those who rose in the executive would attempt to use judiciary powers to evade punishment, an abuse of powers. The executive branch legislates and enforces their policies. The National Congress meets daily and consists of Ministers, Deputy Ministers, Assistant Ministers, heads of principal agencies under a ministry, the Kera (Head of State), and possibly the Crown Princess. Being that the island nation is smaller in population the government is unitary, and there is little autonomy afforded, the exception being that of municipalities, like villages or cities. The judiciary is staffed by the National Congress, with every appointment made by the Kera, and reviewed by an independent committee with no ties to the Keral family and Justice Ministry. Ultimately, judges are confirmed if other members of the National Congress take no issue with their ascension to their prospective post. Ministers and agency heads are also appointed by the Kera. Often times, the process of filling the posts starts with the generation of a shortlist of recommendations to the Kera made internally by the respective ministry with input from heads of agencies relevant to the operations of the post.
