'''Etsenes''', officially the '''Kankiesi-Tos Dual Republic''' (Meskiyon: ''Kankiesi-Tos Kzotr Hakemy'') is a republic located in Katzen, situated between the Srzek Mountains in the East, Kios Tiklet (Tiklet Sea) in the west, the Tos highlands and eventually the Kios Nyetenl (Nyetenl Sea) in the north, the Kiosikn Ostrek in the south-west, and the Kiosin Tsikot in the south east with a small bridge into the interior of the continent in the south-central region.

It is highly unclear where they originated, but the arrival of the Enesez Tribes in 740 BKE (184 AD) marked the beginning of Tsenes Civilization. 23 years later, the tribal people split up, the Kantaket tribe migrating south into the lowlands, which provide fertile and easily colonizable land. The Enesez meanwhile stayed in the highlands and mountains, which provide rich natural defenses but poor soil, natural resources, and trade ability, forcing them to continue in their traditional ways of life, with little technological advancement. as the Kantaket tribes settled the lowlands and southern areas, they lived in peace with the [[Maltecivean_Socialist_Confederacy|natives]] for a short time, but due to disputes about territorial encroachment, the more advanced Kantaket tribes expelled the [[Maltecivean_Socialist_Confederacy|natives]] from the lands, forcefully moving them onto Pfet Island (the Pfet Peninsula at the time) in the north of the region, which being much smaller than the previously inhabited territory, did not have the animal population to support that many people, so the native creatures on the island died off at an alarming rate as the tribes hunt them for food. slowly, as the numbers dwindle, food becomes scarce and the expelled tribes begin war over food and resources to survive on. Causing many deaths and creating a just generally hostile, chaotic environment.

As time went on, the Enesez tribe had more breakups which saw two more waves of settlers moved south to assimilate with the Kantaket, who mostly accepted them into their developing society. Meanwhile the Enesez tribe discovered the northern coast of Etsenes and slowly migrated from the highlands onto that coast, leaving the highlands depopulated and mostly barren. This also left many very well preserved abandon Enesez settlements for later discovery. The issue with this migration is that this added only another level of isolation to the Enesez settlements, who as a result didn't urbanize their land very much compared to the Kantaket tribes.

===The Dark Ages of [[Kankiesk|Kankaska]]===
King Laemis II died around the year 844 AD (81 BKE) sparking a civil war of succession within Kankaska between Laemis III, his brother Eleméy I, and their cousin, Ménilas. This civil war brought about a dark age in which thousands died fighting for who they believed should be King or Queen. Eventually, Eleméy I won the war, but at the cost of thousands of lives and an even more unstable nation. Eleméy I ruled a ruined nation that was littered with constant rebellion and economic chaos. His son, Eleméy II, did even worse, who launched a war with neighboring Etsosn States, who promptly united against Kankaska to defend themselves, a move that everyone saw coming except Eleméy II. The war brought chaos in Northeastern Kankaska and caused even more rebellion. Eventually, A plague struck at the most inopportune time, flaring up all across Kankaska. This pushed the populace to their limit. Eleméy II was overthrown by his cousin, Liyven I, who eventually ended up being the father of the 1st Kankiesian Empire.
===The 1st Kankas Empire===
Liyven I easily crushed the remaining resistance for his cousin, Eleméy II. After that, he consolidated his power and, using the loyal soldiers of the Kankasian Military, invaded the territories that were annexed by the Etsosn States. They then went further and invaded the rest of Etsosn. Annexing much of the Tos territory and entirely reforming the borders of the area, creating 3 distinct Tos states rather than keeping the lot of them, which consisted of more than 55 independent Duchies and Kingdoms. He then turned his sights south to the southeastern plain, which had been a thorn in the side of Kankaska for centuries.

===Unification of [[Kankiesk|Kankiesk]] and [[Tosn]]===
===Unification of [[Kankiesk|Kankiesk]] and [[Tosn]]===


===The 1st [[Kankiesk|Kankiesian]] Civil War===
====Tos concerns about Unification====
Etsenes unified in 1036 AKE after [[The War for Proshznef]]. Though this was not certain to happen due to Tos concerns about loosing the power to govern themselves. The two united under a Dual Constitutional Monarchy, which enshrined both nation's royal families in a special status. Not long afterwards, only 6 days to be exact, the people revolted against the Monarchy, toppling it and placing Kankiesian Syndicalist, [[Elvok Helostanaf]], into office.
 
====Etsenes and Communism====
 
=====Economic Policy=====
Syndical President [[Elvok Helostanaf]] instituted programs such as Universal Basic Income, which is based on the idea that each month people who are considered adults are given a certain amount of money per month, which in this case was 3000 Tsiks per month. This policy proved to be a mistake as the economy practically collapsed. Unemployment soared to an average of 22% of the working age population, at the height of this, the numbers went as high as 33%. Meanwhile, the government, began printing more Tsiks, unaware of the fact that the more money that is introduced into society, the less it is valuable. This economic policy lasted year and caused incredible damage to the economy, something that is still felt in the modern day in the form of an extremely low value currency.


===The Post War Decades===
=====Foreign Policy=====
[[Elvok Helostanaf]]'s foreign policy differed from many states that were and are considered "Communist". He did not act in a hostile nature towards Capitalist Nations. Instead, He was fairly friendly to them, or not aggressive rather. He noted the importance of said nations to the survival of Etsenes. One famous interaction between nations was [[the war between Etsenes and Fluver]], which raged through the decade. Towards the end of his regime though, Helostanaf did make peace with the Fluverans.


===Modern Day===
=====The Collapse=====
Shortly after making peace with Fluver, Etsenes unfortunately was in a bad place economically. The main selling point of [[Elvok Helostanaf|Helostanaf]]'s economic policies proved to be dangerous and ineffective. Things such as Universal Basic Income and the private to public shift of many of the nation's factories did nothing but place the economy in ruins. The Tsik collapsed in value down to a fraction of its original value and not many strides had been made domestically or internationally. 11 years after the beginning of [[Elvok Helostanaf|Helostanaf]]'s Regime, on August 28th, 1047, he was stripped and toppled from power in a chaotic, and nearly violent revolution and was later jailed for crimes committed against the people of the nation. Including killing off political opponents and forced labor by criminals in terrible environments. The people gathered together in opposition for Helostanaf's brutal regime and fought bravely. The Military also assisted the civilians and preformed a coup d'tat in the nation. Establishing a temporary Military Junta in the nation for just 2 weeks until a constitution was drafted by the leaders of the revolution.
 
===Post Communism Etsenes===
Placed economic turmoil from [[Elvok Helostanaf|Helostanaf's]] Syndicalist Economic Policies, the economy suffered. A recession in the nation began just days after the collapse of Communism, which caused the nation to sink into a severe economic depression. Many poor people literally died from starvation as food became scarce because nobody could afford it. Slowly though, the Tsik regained a small amount of value, stabilizing with a small amount of purchasing power per Tsik. But the effects of Syndicalism lasted decades on the brittle nation.

The climate within Etsenes is temperate, if not a tad warm and humid. The warm current coming in from the West of the nation splits in south Etsenes giving it a comfortable climate. The North of the nation, due to its geographic positioning and the warm current, gets a very rainy, temperate rainforest climate. The rain there lasts all the time causing occasional mudslides and floods.

Etsenes, officially the Kankiesi-Tos Dual Republic (Meskiyon, Miléyke Kankiesia Tos Olnihʟaʟ [Mælejkɛ Kænkisi Tɔs ɔneyhʟaʟ]) is a republic located in Northeastern Katzen, situated between the Srzek Mountains in the East, Kios Tiklet (Tiklet Sea) in the west, the Tos highlands and eventually the Kios Nyetenl (Nyetenl Sea) in the north, the Kiosikn Ostrek in the south-west, and the Kiosin Tsikot in the south east with a small bridge into the interior of the continent in the south-central region.


Etymology

The name Etsenes (Ets/E/ns) has very unclear origins, but it is generally just the name of the area in which the modern day Kankiesi-Tos Dual Republics inhabits, which is why the nation is generally just called Etsenes rather than its ridiculously long official name.

In Meskiyon, Etsenes (Ets/E/ns) is actually pronounced "Itsenez" (E/ts/eh/neh/z), but much like in English, the demonyms for the two prominent sub-ethnic groups in the nation are the Kankiesians and the Tos, which are apart of the greater Tsenes (Meskiyon: Tsenz, Ts/eh/nz) ethnicity

History

Prehistory

It is highly unclear where they originated, but the arrival of the Enesez Tribes in 740 BKE (184 AD) marked the beginning of Tsenes Civilization. 23 years later, the tribal people split up, the Kantaket tribe migrating south into the lowlands, which provide fertile and easily colonizable land. The Enesez meanwhile stayed in the highlands and mountains, which provide rich natural defenses but poor soil, natural resources, and trade ability, forcing them to continue in their traditional ways of life, with little technological advancement. as the Kantaket tribes settled the lowlands and southern areas, they lived in peace with the natives for a short time, but due to disputes about territorial encroachment, the more advanced Kantaket tribes expelled the natives from the lands, forcefully moving them onto Pfet Island (the Pfet Peninsula at the time) in the north of the region, which eventually became the nation of Beauqouit.

As time went on, the Enesez tribe had more breakups which saw two more waves of settlers moved south to assimilate with the Kantaket, who mostly accepted them into their developing society. Meanwhile the Enesez tribe discovered the northern coast of Etsenes and slowly migrated from the highlands onto that coast, leaving the highlands depopulated and mostly barren. This also left many very well preserved abandon Enesez settlements for later discovery. The issue with this migration is that this added only another level of isolation to the Enesez settlements, who as a result didn't urbanize their land very much compared to the Kantaket tribes.

The Kantaket began trade with other cultures around the year 703 BKE and became a recognizable group of people as a result, as the isolated Enesez kept to themselves much more and slowly built their own society on principles of isolation and harmony within their civilization.

Etsosn and Kenkaska

The tribes eventually developed into the much more civilized nations of Etsosn and the Kenkaska Kingdoms.

Etsenes unified in 1036 AKE after The War for Proshznef. Though this was not certain to happen due to Tos concerns about loosing the power to govern themselves. The two united under a Dual Constitutional Monarchy, which enshrined both nation's royal families in a special status. Not long afterwards, only 6 days to be exact, the people revolted against the Monarchy, toppling it and placing Kankiesian Syndicalist, Elvok Helostanaf, into office.

Etsenes and Communism

Economic Policy

Syndical President Elvok Helostanaf instituted programs such as Universal Basic Income, which is based on the idea that each month people who are considered adults are given a certain amount of money per month, which in this case was 3000 Tsiks per month. This policy proved to be a mistake as the economy practically collapsed. Unemployment soared to an average of 22% of the working age population, at the height of this, the numbers went as high as 33%. Meanwhile, the government, began printing more Tsiks, unaware of the fact that the more money that is introduced into society, the less it is valuable. This economic policy lasted year and caused incredible damage to the economy, something that is still felt in the modern day in the form of an extremely low value currency.

Foreign Policy

Elvok Helostanaf's foreign policy differed from many states that were and are considered "Communist". He did not act in a hostile nature towards Capitalist Nations. Instead, He was fairly friendly to them, or not aggressive rather. He noted the importance of said nations to the survival of Etsenes. One famous interaction between nations was the war between Etsenes and Fluver, which raged through the decade. Towards the end of his regime though, Helostanaf did make peace with the Fluverans.

The Collapse

Shortly after making peace with Fluver, Etsenes unfortunately was in a bad place economically. The main selling point of Helostanaf's economic policies proved to be dangerous and ineffective. Things such as Universal Basic Income and the private to public shift of many of the nation's factories did nothing but place the economy in ruins. The Tsik collapsed in value down to a fraction of its original value and not many strides had been made domestically or internationally. 11 years after the beginning of Helostanaf's Regime, on August 28th, 1047, he was stripped and toppled from power in a chaotic, and nearly violent revolution and was later jailed for crimes committed against the people of the nation. Including killing off political opponents and forced labor by criminals in terrible environments. The people gathered together in opposition for Helostanaf's brutal regime and fought bravely. The Military also assisted the civilians and preformed a coup d'tat in the nation. Establishing a temporary Military Junta in the nation for just 2 weeks until a constitution was drafted by the leaders of the revolution.

Post Communism Etsenes

Placed economic turmoil from Helostanaf's Syndicalist Economic Policies, the economy suffered. A recession in the nation began just days after the collapse of Communism, which caused the nation to sink into a severe economic depression. Many poor people literally died from starvation as food became scarce because nobody could afford it. Slowly though, the Tsik regained a small amount of value, stabilizing with a small amount of purchasing power per Tsik. But the effects of Syndicalism lasted decades on the brittle nation.

Etsenes has a total area of 1,759,541 km2, (679,363 sq mi), which is a fairly large size considering the size of the continent in all. Etsenes has actually be blessed with near perfect geography, the Srzek mountains in the North-East largely protect the nation from outside invaders, and the North, West, Central-East and South are all flanked by coast, The only geographic weakness the nation is presented with is the South-Eastern plain, which funnels foreigners right up into the nations heartland: the Lowlands. As a result, the nation has sought protection for its South-Eastern border for most of its history. Due to the fact that there are no natural barriers near the nations South-Eastern borders, the nation's primary focus for centuries is to A. Build a military that is powerful enough to keep out any invader, and B. Put as much distance between this weakness and foreign empires as possible. As a result, the Kankiesians have built some of the largest empires in the history of the continent.

Climate

The climate within Etsenes is temperate, if not a tad warm and humid. The warm current coming in from the West of the nation splits in south Etsenes giving it a comfortable climate. The North of the nation, due to its geographic positioning and the warm current, gets a very rainy, temperate rainforest climate. The rain there lasts all the time causing occasional mudslides and floods.
