Selayar is one of the most diverse countries on Eurth, owing to its location in the tropics. It's year-round hot and humid temperature along with its dense cover of untouched forests provide habitats for a large number of endemic species. The fertile floodplain on the north supports a dense and bustling population of Selayar, with many rivers flowing through from the Wananga mountains in the east. The floodplain alone hosts an almost three-fourth population of the nation. | Selayar is one of the most diverse countries on Eurth, owing to its location in the tropics.

Selayar is one of the most diverse countries on Eurth, owing to its location in the tropics. It's year-round hot and humid temperature along with its dense cover of untouched forests provide habitats for a large number of endemic species. The fertile floodplain on the north supports a dense and bustling population of Selayar, with many rivers flowing through from the Wananga mountains in the east. The floodplain alone hosts an almost three-fourth population of the nation.
Selayar emerged as one of the earliest civilisations in Aurelia, beginning with the rise of Ninaman cultures in early first millennia BCE and the development of rice agriculture. Tenaia Kingdom is widely-recognised as the first major kingdom in Selayar, after uniting the Saraian Valley under its dominion around fourth century CE. The arrival of Shffahkian colonist early in the 1400s brought many novel things to the kingdom, and with it, constant warfare. Only in the early sixteenth century, did Reyan Empire once again united the Valley, and went on an aggressive expansion campaign. The Empire reached its zenith in late 1790, spanning almost all of the southern Manamanan coast and land further inland, matched only by the Shffahkian Empire in the southeast. Selayar, as it is known now, grew out of the Wananan Rebellion in 1850, which shifted the power from Reyan capital Terata to the former vassal of the Empire, Heraa.

Etymology
The name Selayar is believed to derive from Old Reyan name for the heavily-populated floodplains in central Selayar, Sarahira Valley. When Shffahkians explorers first entered the region of present-day Selayar, they transcribed the name "Sarahira" as "Saraire". This would later evolve into the present name "Selayar", where today it refers to the country as a whole, not just the area around the floodplains.
The native name in Heraan, Heraʻā, a cognate of Old Reyan name Sarahira, is the namesake of the Heraans and its language, where it used to mean 'valley'. It came from the fact that the Heraan's homeland is the Heraan Valley in Tarema, and later applied to the Heraans land, and ultimately, the nation as a whole which is dominated by the Heraans both politically and culturally.
