==Etymology==
The word "Vozh" is believed to be derive from the name of an ancient Halkeginian tribal federation the Hespirotes referred to as the Βόζηκοι (Vozēkoi), a people living in an area known as Βόζια (Vozia) that roughly corresponds to the modern Atmoran state of [[Saillune]]. The root of the ethnonym Vozē may be related to the Hespirote word βοή, meaning "a shout", possibly referring to a distinct war cry or song associated with the tribe.

===Aurician Empire===
 
Archaeological evidence shows the extensive funerary tributes involving snake-like and draconic figures, leading anthropologists to conclude that snakes were a sacred animal in ancient Halkeginian societies, eventually evolving into the early Slavonic ethnic beliefs known as [[Zmiinava]].
===Hespirote Empire===
 
The Slavonic War refers to the military campaign undertaken by the Hespirote Empire against the Vozēkoi, a Slavonic tribal grouping native to modern day [[Atmora]]. The Hespirote Empire sought to expand its influence and secure valuable resources on the continent of Halkeginia, where the Vozēkoi resided.
 
====Background====
 
The Hespirote Empire, situated on the continent of Aurica across a narrow strait to the south of Halkeginia, had experienced a period of economic prosperity and political stability. Influenced by the ambitions of its emperors and driven by a desire for territorial expansion, the empire looked to extend its dominance beyond its borders.
 
Meanwhile, the Vozēkoi were a tribal society known for their fierce independence and strong ties to their ancestral lands. They inhabited the region of Vozia in modern day Saillune and Lieseltania, an area rich in natural resources and strategic bridgehead for the Hespirotes to conduct further exploration and conquest of the northern continent.
 
====Conquest====
 
In the year 120 AD, the Emperor Titos Aurelios IV launched a large-scale military campaign aimed at subjugating the Vozekoi and other Slavonians and incorporating their lands into the Hespirote Empire. The Hespirote legions, well-trained and equipped, crossed the narrow strait that separated Aurica from Halkeginia, initiating a series of fierce battles and sieges. The Slavonians, although defiant and resilient, faced significant challenges in repelling the powerful Hespirote forces. The technological and logistical superiority of the empire, coupled with its well-disciplined legions, eventually overwhelmed the native warriors. After several years of bloody conflict, the Hespirotes emerged victorious, marking the beginning of the Slavonians' assimilation into the Hespirote Empire.
 
====Hespirote Rule and Christianisation====
 
Following the conquest, the Hespirote Empire established a centralized administration in Vozh, incorporating the region into its vast provincial network. Aurican governors were appointed to oversee the affairs of the newly acquired territory, with the aim of promoting stability, cultural integration, and economic development.
 
In the late period of Hespirote rule over Vozh, efforts were made by imperial authorities to spread Christianity among the local population. Missionaries and religious leaders from the Hespirote Empire arrived in Halkeginia, bringing with them the teachings of the Christian faith. Over time, a gradual process of conversion took place, resulting in the adoption of Christianity by a significant portion of the Slavonic population.
 
The Christianization of Vozh was not without resistance and conflict. The indigenous Halkeginian snake cult, deeply entrenched in the religious and cultural fabric of the region, vehemently resisted the encroachment of Christianity. The Slavonic tribes, in a set of beliefs known as Zmiinava worshiped a pantheon of serpent deities and practiced rituals centered around snake symbolism.
 
In time, the Christianization of Vozh gained momentum, and the influence of Zmiinava gradually waned. The imperial authorities' efforts, coupled with the appeal and growing popularity of Christianity among the population, led to the decline of the indigenous religious practices. The Christianization process shaped the religious landscape of Slavonic society, influencing its cultural practices, social structures, and the subsequent development of its historical identity.
 
====Evacuation of Halkeginia====
Nearly 300 years later, in the year 511 AD, Hespiria faced internal strife and external threats from neighboring powers. Faced with these challenges, the empire made the difficult decision to evacuate the northern provinces in order to consolidate its forces and protect its core territories.
 
The evacuation of Vozh marked the end of Hespirote presence in the region.

Law enforcement in Vozh is handled by several entities, most notably the [[Militsiya (Vozh)|Vozhsk Militsiya]], [[People's Armed Police (Vozh)|People's Armed Police]], [[Vozhsk Royal Guard]], and [[KDB (Vozh)|KKDB]]. The Militsiya is a group of law enforcement agencies responsible for maintaining law and order within the federal subjects of the United Kingdoms of Vozh. Each state has its own Internal Security Commissariat responsible for administering the Militsiya according to the standards of the [[Responsible Policing Act of 1998]].  Members of the Militsiya are not typically armed.
The Militsiya are responsible for handling ordinary police work, such as maintaining {{wpl|public order}}, crime prevention, and {{wpl|Criminal investigation|investigating criminal}} activities. Their responsibilities include responding to emergency situations, ensuring the safety of the community, conducting patrols, and providing assistance and support to the public when needed. These agencies are typically staffed by professional law enforcement officers screened and trained at federal academies in [[Mohileu]], [[Kiev]], and [[Bloemfontein]]. While the Militsiya handles day-to-day law enforcement tasks, they also collaborate and share responsibilities with other specialized law enforcement agencies in Vozh. They are often accompanied by unarmed members of the [[Royal Guard Internal Troops]], of whom several may operate under the supervision of a [[Militsiyonaire]].

Vozh, officially the United Kingdoms of Vozh Vozh: Zlúčanaje Karalieŭstva Vozha, Musulmen: Ujedinjena Kraljevstva Vož) is a federal popular monarchy. It achieved independence from Atmora in 1913.

Etymology

The word "Vozh" is believed to be derive from the name of an ancient Halkeginian tribal federation the Hespirotes referred to as the Βόζηκοι (Vozēkoi), a people living in an area known as Βόζια (Vozia) that roughly corresponds to the modern Atmoran state of Saillune. The root of the ethnonym Vozē may be related to the Hespirote word βοή, meaning "a shout", possibly referring to a distinct war cry or song associated with the tribe.

The earliest known human settlement in Vozh dates back 38,000 years. The first humans are believed to have crossed a land-bridge from Aurica. They are known to have lived in both settled and nomadic communities. Some prehistoric towns are believed to have reached as many as 20,000 inhabitants. They are the likely ancestors of the modern Chervenitsi, Castarcid, and Slavonic peoples. Though trade with the Halkeginians was frequent throughout the ages, the continent does not appear to have been extensively explored by outside powers until the expeditions of the Aurician and Numidic empires of the early first Millennium.

Archaeological evidence shows the extensive funerary tributes involving snake-like and draconic figures, leading anthropologists to conclude that snakes were a sacred animal in ancient Halkeginian societies, eventually evolving into the early Slavonic ethnic beliefs known as Zmiinava.

The Slavonic War refers to the military campaign undertaken by the Hespirote Empire against the Vozēkoi, a Slavonic tribal grouping native to modern day Atmora.

Law

Law enforcement in Vozh is handled by several entities, most notably the Vozhsk Militsiya, People's Armed Police, Vozhsk Royal Guard, and KKDB. The Militsiya is a group of law enforcement agencies responsible for maintaining law and order within the federal subjects of the United Kingdoms of Vozh. Each state has its own Internal Security Commissariat responsible for administering the Militsiya according to the standards of the Responsible Policing Act of 1998. Members of the Militsiya are not typically armed.

The Militsiya are responsible for handling ordinary police work, such as maintaining public order, crime prevention, and investigating criminal activities. Their responsibilities include responding to emergency situations, ensuring the safety of the community, conducting patrols, and providing assistance and support to the public when needed. These agencies are typically staffed by professional law enforcement officers screened and trained at federal academies in Mohileu, Kiev, and Bloemfontein. While the Militsiya handles day-to-day law enforcement tasks, they also collaborate and share responsibilities with other specialized law enforcement agencies in Vozh. They are often accompanied by unarmed members of the Royal Guard Internal Troops, of whom several may operate under the supervision of a Militsiyonaire.

In highly dangerous situations, the ANB (People's Armed Police) are often deployed as a specialized tactical unit. The ANB serves as a specialized force similar to a SWAT team, dealing with high-risk situations, hostage rescue operations, and countering organized crime. They focus on addressing critical incidents requiring specialized training and equipment beyond the scope of ordinary police work.

In addition to collaborating with the PAP, the Militsiya also shares responsibilities with the KKDB (Royal Committee for State Security). The KKDB is responsible for federal law enforcement, counter-intelligence, border control, anti-terrorism efforts, and other serious responsibilities critical to the nation's security. The KKDB is an important law enforcement asset of Vozh, working in close collaboration with the Militsiya. They make joint efforts to combat organized crime, protect national security, and maintain law and order throughout the country.

Vozh also maintains the Royal Guard, a gendarmerie force responsible for protecting the [[Vozhsk royal family|royal family}}, key government installations, and other important national assets. The Royal Guard is a specialized unit within the law enforcement framework of the UKV, and their duties extend beyond mere ceremonial roles. In addition to their security duties, the Royal Guard also handles anti-riot and crowd-control operations, ensuring public order and safety during large-scale events or protests. Their specialized training is intended to allow them to effectively manage and de-escalate volatile situations, with the stated goal of safeguarding both the citizens and the integrity of public spaces. They also donate personnel to help bolster Militsiya's numbers on foot patrol. They can be distinguished from professional police by their white uniforms and carrying of nightsticks rather than the traditional 'kanchuka' short-whip carried by the Militsiya.

Foreign Relations

Vozh enjoys warm relations with the Republic of Batavia and Socialist Republic of Malgrave.

Military

The Vozhsk Armed Forces are divided into four branches; the Vozhsk National Army, Royal Vozhsk Navy, Royal Vozhsk Aerospace Force, and Vozhsk Royal Guard. As of September 2016, it has over 1,907,000 active-duty, and 1.4 million reserve personnel. All citizens of either sex between the ages of 18 and 28 are obligated to serve 13 months in the Armed Forces. Vozh is not known to possess nuclear weapons, although it is believed to possess a large strategic reserve of chemical and biological weapons, as well as a significant fleet of modern and semi-modern strategic bombers. Vozh also possesses a small fleet of submarines and is rumoured to be looking to develop an aircraft-carrier force.

Vozhsk tank forces are natively referred to as "cavalry". They inherit much of the traditions of earlier Vozhsk Uhlan and Hussar formations, even retaining the latter as the title of the basic enlisted cavalryman and with the traditional parade uniform of the cavalryman much resembling those of the traditional tribal cossack militias.
