In the 1100s, it had a population of roughly a thousand people. | ||
In 1203, Adili of the house of Rasmuq made a deal with the Duke of the Northern Lands Misata Ki Afatikaq and had a castle of his own by the name of Pataqi built northwest of the town, where he later moved with his wife Taqiha Ka Masapi and 2 sons. What followed were years of heavy investments into the town and its infrastructure, which resulted in the influx of peasants and the growth of the mostly fishing and hunting-based economy. In 1225, the coastal town was chosen to become the base for Nbukan northern sea expeditions. Kisanaq was given the status of a duchy in 1237, with the whole peninsula falling under Duke Adili Ki Rasmuq's rule, splitting away from the Nbukan province of the Northern Lands, ruled by Duke Paqa Ki Afatikaq. | In 1203, Adili of the house of Rasmuq made a deal with the Duke of the Northern Lands Misata Ki Afatikaq and had a castle of his own by the name of Pataqi built northwest of the town, where he later moved with his wife Taqiha Ka Masapi and 2 sons.

===Aftenheimisch | In the centuries that followed, Kisanaq became a major player in the northern Athenian trade, sending expeditions into the northern seas to explore new lands and trade with other nations. These expeditions brought great wealth to the nation, and it became known for its prosperity. The Naquese expeditions explored the entirety of the northern seas, estabilishing early contact with the people of West and East Areia, as well as Tribia or the Calt-Jisinian parts of Athenia. | ||
===Kingdom of | |||
Kisanaq was frequently threatened by its only land neighbour, now the Grand Duchy of the Northern Lands, which sought to expand its territory and control over the valuable trade routes, as well as the recently found gold deposits on the Taraq Isle. On the 21st of December 1425, the Northern Lands invaded the Naquese Kingdom. The Nbi Kingdom, whose relations with the Northern Lands were, after the dissolution of the Nbuka Realm, at an all time low, joined the war on Kisanaq's side shortly after. The war, which lasted for 5 years, resulted in the puppeting of the Northern Lands by Nbi Kingdom and the forming of an alliance between Kisanaq and Nbi. The famous 'Fortress Line', a line of military fortresses on the Naquese border, which sets the borders of even the modern day Kisanaq, was built either during or shortly after the war. | |||
As a result of this intervention, Kisanaq developed strong ties with Nbi and became a valuable ally in the region. The Kingdom prospered under Nbi's sphere of influence, growing in wealth and power as a key trade hub and the owner of large gold deposits. | |||
===Ktartinisan Kisanaq=== | |||
In 1642, when the Nbi Kingdom lost its grip on Kisanaq due to its internal issues, small Kisanaq became vulnerable to foreign invaders. The army of the Ktartinisan Empire, which at the time controlled much of the Athenian Northern Peaks, crossed the Naquese border on the 15th of May and gained control of the entire peninsula as well as much of the land of the Nbinian Northern Lands in the '10 Day War'. The Nbi Kingdom soon tried to retake its lost territory, but the Ktartinisan Empire showed to be militarily superior. In 1645, the Nbi Kingdom launched another offensive against Ktartinis, in which it was able to retake the Northern Lands, but the Naquese peninsula remained contested for the next 21 years, after which the Nbi Kingdom officially agreed to give it to Ktartnis in exchange for peace. | |||
Under the rule of the Ktartinisan Empire, Kisanaq got completely isolated from other Nbanian nations and underwent a process known as Ktartinization, a goal of which was to erase the Naquese language and culture and replace it with the 'superior Ktartinisan one'. While this goal was never fully reached, the Naquese culture and language did end up changing drastically over the 102 years of Ktartinisan rule. So much that the modern day Naquese are considered to be the only living descendants of the Ktartinisans, which got later massacred by the Decembrian and Aftenheimisch Empires. | |||
===Decembrian Kisanaq=== | |||
In 1768, Kisanaq became a Decembrian possesion after a treaty between the Decembrian Empire and the failing Ktartinisan Empire. It was administered as a special administrative region of the Decembrian Narthenia, having a level of self-governance. | |||

Kisanaq, officially the Naquese Crown State, is a country in northern Athenia, occupying the small Kisanaq Peninsula and the nearby Taraq Isle. Kisanaq is a constitutional monarchy and a developed country with an advanced high income market economy. Its capital and largest city, the Kisanaq City, serves as a financial centre of north Athenia and hosts the headquarters of many multinational corporations.
As a constitutional monarchy, Kisanaq is ruled by a hereditary monarch who holds ceremonial powers. The country's government is led by a prime minister and a parliament, which is elected by the people. Kisanaq has a strong tradition of democracy and rule of law, and the country is known for its commitment to human rights and civil liberties.
In addition to its strong market economy, Kisanaq is also known for its advanced technological infrastructure. The country has a highly developed telecommunications network, and is a leader in the development of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and renewable energy. The government of Kisanaq has also made significant investments in research and development, which has helped the country to maintain its position as a global leader in many fields.
The country originates from the remote town of the Nbuka Realm, Kisanaq, which became home to the house of Rasmuq in 1203. In 1424, the house gathered enough resources and power to make the whole peninsula an autonomous region. The country, which at that time only contained the city and forests surrounding it, then gained full independence in 1497, after the collapse of the Nbuka Realm. Kisanaq was later colonized by December in the 19th century and regained its independence in 1954.
History
Nbuka Realm
Kisanaq was first mentioned as a castle in 976. A base for further Nbukan expeditions into the wilderness of northern Athenia, it became a town in 1098 when King Farita III. granted Kisanaq its civic charter as a "Royal Special Town". In the 1100s, it had a population of roughly a thousand people.
In 1203, Adili of the house of Rasmuq made a deal with the Duke of the Northern Lands Misata Ki Afatikaq and had a castle of his own by the name of Pataqi built northwest of the town, where he later moved with his wife Taqiha Ka Masapi and 2 sons. What followed were years of heavy investments into the town and its infrastructure, which resulted in the influx of peasants and the growth of the mostly fishing and hunting-based economy. In 1225, the coastal town was chosen to become the base for Nbukan northern sea expeditions. Kisanaq was given the status of a duchy in 1237, with the whole peninsula falling under Duke Adili Ki Rasmuq's rule, splitting away from the Nbukan province of the Northern Lands, ruled by Duke Paqa Ki Afatikaq.
First Kingdom
After the dissolution of the Nbuka Realm of 1497, the Duchy of Kisanaq formally transformed into a Kingdom, later called the First Kingdom of Kisanaq.
In the centuries that followed, Kisanaq became a major player in the northern Athenian trade, sending expeditions into the northern seas to explore new lands and trade with other nations. These expeditions brought great wealth to the nation, and it became known for its prosperity. The Naquese expeditions explored the entirety of the northern seas, estabilishing early contact with the people of West and East Areia, as well as Tribia or the Calt-Jisinian parts of Athenia.
Kisanaq was frequently threatened by its only land neighbour, now the Grand Duchy of the Northern Lands, which sought to expand its territory and control over the valuable trade routes, as well as the recently found gold deposits on the Taraq Isle. On the 21st of December 1425, the Northern Lands invaded the Naquese Kingdom. The Nbi Kingdom, whose relations with the Northern Lands were, after the dissolution of the Nbuka Realm, at an all time low, joined the war on Kisanaq's side shortly after. The war, which lasted for 5 years, resulted in the puppeting of the Northern Lands by Nbi Kingdom and the forming of an alliance between Kisanaq and Nbi. The famous 'Fortress Line', a line of military fortresses on the Naquese border, which sets the borders of even the modern day Kisanaq, was built either during or shortly after the war.
As a result of this intervention, Kisanaq developed strong ties with Nbi and became a valuable ally in the region. The Kingdom prospered under Nbi's sphere of influence, growing in wealth and power as a key trade hub and the owner of large gold deposits.
Ktartinisan Kisanaq
In 1642, when the Nbi Kingdom lost its grip on Kisanaq due to its internal issues, small Kisanaq became vulnerable to foreign invaders. The army of the Ktartinisan Empire, which at the time controlled much of the Athenian Northern Peaks, crossed the Naquese border on the 15th of May and gained control of the entire peninsula as well as much of the land of the Nbinian Northern Lands in the '10 Day War'. The Nbi Kingdom soon tried to retake its lost territory, but the Ktartinisan Empire showed to be militarily superior. In 1645, the Nbi Kingdom launched another offensive against Ktartinis, in which it was able to retake the Northern Lands, but the Naquese peninsula remained contested for the next 21 years, after which the Nbi Kingdom officially agreed to give it to Ktartnis in exchange for peace.
Under the rule of the Ktartinisan Empire, Kisanaq got completely isolated from other Nbanian nations and underwent a process known as Ktartinization, a goal of which was to erase the Naquese language and culture and replace it with the 'superior Ktartinisan one'. While this goal was never fully reached, the Naquese culture and language did end up changing drastically over the 102 years of Ktartinisan rule. So much that the modern day Naquese are considered to be the only living descendants of the Ktartinisans, which got later massacred by the Decembrian and Aftenheimisch Empires.
Decembrian Kisanaq
In 1768, Kisanaq became a Decembrian possesion after a treaty between the Decembrian Empire and the failing Ktartinisan Empire. It was administered as a special administrative region of the Decembrian Narthenia, having a level of self-governance.
Kingdom of the Naquese Crown
After Kisanaq regained its independence in 1954, the country formally transformed into a kingdom once again, now called the Kingdom of the Naquese Crown. The country fully opened itself to the global market.
Government and Politics
Kisanaq is a unitary constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system of government, wherein the Emperor of Kisanaq is the head of state and the prime minister is the head of government. The Government's exercise of executive power derives from the Constitution. The members of the government are the Prime Minister, Deputy prime ministers and other ministers. The Government is responsible to the Chamber of Deputies. The Prime Minister is the head of government and wields powers such as the right to set the agenda for most foreign and domestic policy and choose government ministers.
Head of state
The Emperor is a formal head of state with limited and specific powers, who appoints the prime minister, as well the other members of the cabinet on a proposal by the prime minister. The current serving head of state is Emperor Ataraq II. Ki Maqi, the eldest son of Adila IV. Ki Maqi, the former Naquese Emperor, and Kata VII. Ka Lakaraq, the Princess of Giha. In 2020, Ataraq's net worth was estimated around US$4 billion.
