Kaiye-Tourie, officially known as the Republic of Kaiye-Tourie (Albori: Kaaytuuri Hayboorey, Gaullican: République du Kaiye-Tourie), is a sovereign state generally considered to be part of the Bahia region. It has a population of over 6 million people, over three million of whom live within the capital city of Urafaada.
For much of its history, its location commanding trade routes across Coius has made Kaiye-Tourie an important trading site. Several key states established themselves here, with the most powerful being the Kingdom of Kambu who ruled between 1100 and up until the 19th century. By this time, the Kambu had become corrupted and highly weakened, and in 1813 the area came under the control of Gaullica after the conquests of General Jean-Luc Boschung. Kaiye-Tourie remained under Gaullican sovereignty after the fall of the empire in the late 1850s, though it gained some autonomy at this time. The Kingdom of Kambu was maintained as a local proxy for foreign rule. However, during the 20th century, Albori nationalism rose in relevance. It based itself in the traditions of Euclean nationalism, with Irfanist and socialist currents also rising up in this era. They started a guerilla conflict, which gained steam after Gaullican sovereignty was replaced by Weranian control and by 1956 the colonial government withdrew leaving Kaiye-Tourie as an independent nation. Alfaga Fun-Funey, the leader of the PLM, assumed power and set about creating the modern state of Kaiye-Tourie. He restricted political expression and began to develop a socialist economy, influenced by anti-colonial and nationalist sentiments as well. With political violence between leftists and Irfanists dominating the streets, a group of military officers seized power in a coup. They declared their intent to be the suppression of all radical currents, founding a centrist state upon the principles of Ngiilism.
In the modern day, Kaiye-Tourie is a moderately wealthy nation, with one of the highest GDP per capitas in the region and high levels of development in urban areas. This is owed to the nation's expansive oil reserves, as well as exports of cash crops such as sugar, tobacco and cacao. Despite this, many rural areas are significantly less developed. The political system is best described as a dictatorship, with only one legal party in government and freedom of speech significantly restricted. Tensions between ethnic and religious groups are largely suppressed due to a "carrot and stick" approach which is aided by the relative prosperity of the nation. Corruption remains a major issue, affecting all levels of government. This has been combined in recent years with the expansion of drug trafficking, leading many to fear that Kaiye-Tourie is at risk of becoming a narco-state.
