Schnabo (shnah-boh; Escanian: Escá'aníàn [ˈeskʰɑnjɑn], officially the Republic of Schnabo (Escanian: Erenílc Escá'aníàna; Deparel: רפובליקת אשקניאן, tr. Republikat Ashkanyan), is a federal republic consisting of 20 states and single federal district encompassing the capital Schnabooton and its vicinity.
The area that today makes up the territory of Schnabo has been inhabited since ancient times. By the 18th century, several independent nation och city states had been established and many were weakened after years of nearly-constant war. The first attempt at a Pan-Escanian state came with the establishment of the Confederation of Free States in 1706, which lasted for 136 years until the outbreak of the War of Succession. Pro-unionist forces won, and forced a re-unification of the then-torn up federation under a centralized government. Threats of a second secessionist war paved way for the establishment of the modern federal republic in 1848, where central powers were relinquished in favor of strong autonomy for individual member states.
Etymology
The Escanian name Escá'aníàn is ultimately derived from Early Common Escanian escaai hian meaning "Escan land", through Middle Escanian Escá'an ían "Land of the Escans" and is attested since at least the 15th century. Originally, the term was used to describe lands inhabited by the Escans in general and did not refer to any political entity in specific, but after the formation of the then loosely associated Confederation of Free States (CFS) by several Escanian republics, states and other independent entities in 1706, it was adopted as a national designation to refer to the nascent, unified state. The etymology of the ethnonym Escan is not certain; however it may be related to Old Escanian Esoz'ce, meaning "jurisdiction", referring to a group of people being subject to a common set of laws.
The modern English name Schnabo began as a metonym to refer to the CFS after the election of Íoúnebtéan Schnabo as its first president in 1707. In the early periods of the confederacy, English was increasingly used as a lingua franca in areas of mutually unintelligible dialects of Escanian and other regional languages, and over time Schnabo became the primary English word to describe the political entity as a whole. Upon the addition of English as an official language in the Republican Constitution of 1848, Schnabo was officially adopted as the English name.
