Oroshia (Oroshan: Vək kikŋaʔvs, pronounced: [vəg gikŋaʔfs]; Jogin: 양치기 땅, tr. Yangchigi ttang), officially the Oroshan Democratic Republic (Oroshan: Kikŋaʔvəvi paŋksisavəvi qaʔłŋavnoči; Jogin: 양치기 민주 공화국, tr. Yangchigi minju gonghwagug), is a country in the extreme north-east of Isuan. Oroshia is situated on the eponymic Oroshan peninsula, with the Gyo-chin mountain ranges forming the backbone of the peninsula, interspersed with flatter coastal plain. With a popuation of over 2 million people (as of the 2018 census), it is one of the least populous countries in Isuan, owing to its harsh geography and mostly subarctic climate. Its capital is Sochvel, originally founded by Jogin colonists, which is also the largest city, housing the government and the legislature, the Oroshan National Assembly.
Jogin sailors had known of the area now known as Oroshia for many centuries before true colonization began, when a decree from the Jogin Emperor in 1634 proclaimed all of the Oroshan peninsula to be subsumed under the Jogin realm. Jogin colonization introduced a system of segregation, wherein the Jogin enjoyed a privileged position in society compared to the Oroshans and Namchogi, both of whom were nomadic peoples until the widespread introduction of agriculture through colonization. The use of the Oroshan and Namchog languages was discouraged, and they were banned for use in education.
Resistance to colonial policies culminated in the Tilgin rebellion in 1879, where Indigenous Oroshans took up arms agains the Jogin colonial government, but were defeated. Oroshia participated in both Great Wars under Jogin rule, sending expeditionary forces but having no direct control over foreign policy. Mounting calls for independence produced several discussions and summits, where eventually an agreement to independence was signed in 1963. On 1 May 1964, Oroshia was granted formal independence, and adopted a presidential republican government.
Since independence, Oroshia has strengthened ties with the Western world through trade, aligning itself closer to Albrennia rather than the emerging anti-Western bloc countries in Isuan, for example Songha. Modern Oroshan society is relatively free, though the Oroshan government continues to receive criticism from Western countries with which it trades for freedom of elections and freedom of press violations. The current President of Oroshia is Siłəği Kaŋvič, from the Oroshan Freedom and Democracy—Union Party, successive iterations of which have maintained power since independence.
