Qazhshava also known as The Qash State (Qash: Qaşay Hanat, IPA: [kaʃaj xanat]) is a sovereign state in Anteria, Qazhshava is officialy divided into 5 Histotical regions regions, those being the Mashima, Annravi-okrü, Ezerni, anderi-step, & qash-planın regions. Qazhshava borders Bakyern to the south, the (as known in Qash) Gyol lake to the east, The Step Forward to the west, and Qazhshava has claims over land bordering Anderum, there's no current border to the north. The country's climate is warn during the summers, and quite cold during the winters, due to the cool winds going around it. The landscape is very flat to the northwest, resemblingg a steppe, with very few forests, but the the southeast its more mounainus with large patches o forests, the tallest peak is located neer the Bakyern border, peak Ayfos at 2 925 m above sea level. The longest & largest river located entirely into the countries borders starting from peak Tarbuk (2 468 m above sea level), the Ayshtak river.

There used to be two main ethnic groups, the anderic people who refused to follow the other anderic clans to the west, and the native Qash, but with time both groups intermixed into the modern Qash. An average Qash person resenbles a dark haired, white skined person, most males bear moustaches and a common hair style of one braided tail on the back of the head, the rest shaved, and most females bear either short shoulder lenct hair, or long hair.

The spoken languages, like the ethnic groups used two be two, an old-anderic dialect, and the native Qash language, but with time, only upper class people spoke the old-anderic dialect, and the leader at the time decided to make the qash language official as to strenghten his khanate, this resoulted in the modern Qash language, which still bears a lot of the old-anderic words. The Old-Anderic language is still recognized and spoken by shamans while performing rituals, and also spoken by in small isolated communities of qash monks.

It is believed the first people who lived in Qazhshava were here from 40 000 - 30 000 BC from archeological sites found neer the Gyol lake, there were however a lot of skeletons found neer the mountains that date back to about 20 000 BC and some as soon as 5 000 BC. We do know that the original Qash tribes came here in about 500 BC, and the Anderic people who stayed in the lands came here in around 400 AD.v The early humans of qazhshava we're hunter gatherers and fishermen, agroculture didnt arrive here before the Qash tribes arrived, who also brought domesticated animals with them. The Qash people had alott of interaction witht eh Ilanian people who lived and still live on the other side of the lake Gyol, these interactions weren't friendly most of the time, peace between them was made after the Anderic people arrived.

The country is still modernizing, the army still uses Cavelry, and older rufles form the 1913-1950 era. Most of the cities sill mostly contain houses, resembling large towns, the fortresses still stand in use, there are still communities of people living in the anderic Nomadic lifestyle. Qazhshava is classified as a developing economy, ts's main sorce of income is the export of good quality fur, and clothing, they also export great quality bows and arrows for tournaments and such, even racing horses are being selled, aldo less, as the horse is a national symbol of Qazhshava, the rest of their income is through tourism, which is on the slow rise.

Qazhshava's greatest rival is Bakyern, they both have had big and small conflicts with each other, and even today, with their suposset "Truece", there are still small border conflicts between the people.

Qazhshava is a monarchy, classified as a Khanate, with the Khan having absolute power over the nation. The current rler of Qazhshava is Khan yuviği Zlatan of the Kirili-Krum house. The Qurultay counsil is a meeing between the Khan his advisers and a representative of each region.

Etymology

The Name Qazhshava comes from a misshearing of the qash words for "Qash deer", the deer being a sacred animal in Qazhshava, having to do with qash history and mythology. The people who visited the region came when the qash "Avi" festival, and the mytologicak creatures were being named everywhere, so the travelers tought its the regions name.

In Qash, they call the place "Qaşay Hanat"(IPA: [kaʃaj Hanat]) meaning "The Qash Khanate", the anderic people started going by the name Qash, as they couldnt agree on which clan's name ti take.

The first mention of the people calling them selfs "Qash" are runic texts on stones put in the middle of the steppe, they date back to around 568 AD, the stones also depict images of deer with circles, probably depicting suns, above them.
