The '''Federation of Pangchu''', commonly referred to as '''Pangchu''', is a small landlocked nation in Western [[Ausiana]] bordered by [[Yuan]] and [[Mandrao]]. The rugged Karaoram and Tu Shan mountain ranges occupy much of Pangchu's borders, as well as its western and southern regions. The Trans-Karaoram Tract region, administered by Yuan, are claimed by both Pangchu and Mandrao. It is home to a number of ethnic groups, including the [[Manda Pangchu]], Manabans, Mandraos, Dasmistanis, and Yuaneze. There are more than a dozen autonomous prefectures and counties for minorities in Pangchu. Only about 9.7% of Pangchu's land area is fit for human habitation, with most settled in the central valley in or near the capital city of [[Shingzhan]]. | The '''Federation of Pangchu''', commonly referred to as '''Pangchu''', is a small landlocked nation in Western [[Ausiana]] bordered by [[Yuan]] and [[Mandrao]].
