The Imperial Commonwealth of the People (Guuj Xaat Kil Tlagaang), shortened to ICOTP and more commonly known as Haidaland or 'the Haida', is a Semi-Consitutional monarchy located in Northeastern Gwaii. Bordered by Volgorodov and the Salish in the west, the Gwaii Ice Sheet in the north, Haida Bay and Grenham in the east. It has an estimated population of 375 million, which is spread across nearly 1/4 of the continent of Gwaii. The capital city is Tlat'uu, and the largest is the city of T'awts.
Etymology
Guuj Xaat Kil Tlagaang translates to "Imperial People Land" but can also mean "Great People Land" or "Big Haida Land". "Guuj" used to mean "big" but the word "Imperial" and "Great" have been attached to it as well. "Xaat Kil" meant the Haida alone in the past but has changed into meaning "people" along with the word "Xaadas", with "Xaayda" replacing "Xaat Kil" has the demonym of the Haida people. "Tlagaang" has remained relatively unchanged, meaning "land" most of the time, but it has also been used as the word for "Nation" or "State".
History
The History of the ICOTP is a complicated topic, often debated in multiple intellectual circles. However, there are some hard truths about the nation's history, primarily these three: that Yahl Gwaawaas founded the nation around 500 CE/1 AD (but a more formal date would be 513 CE), that it is intertwined with Jashor, and that it is also intertwined, intimately so, with the Kiidaawa.
Prehistory
Pre and Post-Jashor
1st Guuj Xaat Kil
The 1st Guuj Xaat Kil emerged from the power vacuum left by the Great Dying and the groundwork that was laid by the Kiidaawa. According to old Kiidaawa K'íigaang (history) records, with populations and rival manpower low, Yahl Gwaawaas would convince what was left of the Kiidaawa then in the basin to join his group to prevent the entire basin from being totally destroyed by what seemed to be an apocalypse to them. Using this unified group's influence, and with an army of warriors, the warlord would quickly unite much of the basin with little to no resistance as most were willing to join his growing nation (with the exception of the Hoosier people). His newly conquered territories would then be consolidated by 513 CE, considered to be the birth year of the Guuj Xaat Kil.
During his rule, he would quickly establish the new Guuj Xaat Kil as the dominant power in the basin, reducing all others into tributaries (with the exception of the Hoosiers, who were forced out of the basin). The Xaat Kil script would also be created in 520 CE by him as well, which made a written form for all languages in the basin using a single script. Critical infrastructure was also rebuilt or new ones constructed during his reign, which helped glue together the disparate peoples of the basin and laying a stronger foundation for unity for the later 2nd to 4th Guuj Xaat Kil.
