Syara (Syaran: Сијара), known officially as the Commonality of Syara (Syaran: Заедништво на Сиара), is a country lcoated in northwest Siduri. It's population is approximately 164.5 million as of 2020; Zovahr, the nation's capital, is its largest city, followed by Moddra.

Sitting at the northwestern top of the continent of Siduri, Syara forms the southern half of the 'mouth' of the Sundering Sea, which splits the continents of Siduri from Eracura in the north. It shares a land border with only two states; Ruvelka to the east and Delkora to the north, via the shared island of Libov. The Syaran Sea lies to the west, the Nuadan Ocean to the south, and the Sundering Sea to the north, which to the Syarans is often called "The Divide". Syara's coastline extends for nearly 11,000 kilometers, the fourth longest in Siduri. Syara possesses relatively few islands, the only major one being Libov to the north. 70 percent of Syara is considered "flat", characterized by rolling hills and plains. It's highest peak is Mount Zahrosk which peaks at 2,712 meters. Syara consists of four historical regions, which today are known as Realms; Makedon, Galania, Scitaria, and the Clans.

Syara is considered to be a cradle of civilization, alongside Acrea as being one of the oldest recognized nations in Tyran, having been categorically inhabited since the third millennia BCE. Ancient Syara gave rise to numerous concepts includig philosophy, histroiography, political science, scientific, mathematical, and ecological principles, as well as numerous poets and writers. Starting around the 9th century BCE Syara was divided into numerous city-states which eventually coalesced into major alliances and kingdoms including the Kydonian League and Makedon, the latter which would begin to dominate Syara following the Bastarnae invasions weakened many of the other powers. The Makedonians would go on to conquer most of northern Siduri, and at their peak the Empire ruled over Ruvelka, Delkora, Allamunnika, Quenmin, as well as parts of Mansuriyyah, Lirinya, and Knichus. The Makedonians made little effort to incorporate the people they conquered into their society, although certain aspects of Makedonian culture influenced their subjects within a few decades of their apex the Empire began to decline. Delkora, and everything east of Quenmin was lost within a few centuries, and the rise of the Arkoennite Empire in north central Siduri further weakened Makedonian rule. By the 14th century Makedon itself was subjugated the Arkoennites, though reduced to a tributary state the Makedonians retained a noticeable degree of autonomy, possibly reflective of their own treatment of their subjects. The decline the Empire saw the steady reduction of Hellenic culture in Syara and a steady rise of Slavonic linguistics from Scitaria and Galania. Situated on the coast and near major trade routes Syara grew increasingly wealthy and became an early forerunner of the industrial revolution, along with Cacerta becoming one of the early "gunpowder" civilizations. Syara gained its independence in the 18th century and the major Realms quickly engaged in conflict to establish who would lead Syara, cultivating in the Conference of Pella in 1875 which established the Republic of Syara. The young state grew and modernized rapidly, attracting the attention of the Cacertian Empire which resulted in the Divide War and an unexpected Syaran victory. Nationalist sentiment grew quickly following the war, leading Syara to attempt to dominate much of Siduri, contributing to the highly destructive Siduri War which ended in Syaran defeat. Beginning in the 1960s and 70s the nationalist and fundamentalist Wardens grew to oppose the still standing Monarchists of Galania and Makedon, resulting in the Refusal War and the banishment of the royal families from Syara. In 1987 Syara was officially reconstituted as a Commonality and rebounded as a major economic power. Territorial disputes with neighboring Ruvelka culminated in two wars, the brief Imerti Conflict and the much more destructive Zemplen War, which Syara lost.

Syara is a federal parliamentary republic and developed country with an advanced high-income economy, a high quality of life, and a high standard of living. It's economy is the largest in Siduri, and is a major international investor. Syara is member of the Organization of Tyrannic States, and observor state to the Commonwealth of Sovereign Nations, and boasts strong ties with Æsthurlavaj.

Etymology

The exact origins of the name "Syara" are not fully known, but modern historians believe the term originates from the Archaic Galanian "Sebera", meaning "our land" or "our home". In modern Syaran the country is called Sijara (Сијара) casually, or Siara (Сиара) formally, when in conjunction with the term "Commonality of". When Syara came to be commonly used by the majority of the population to describe their home is unknown, but by the 1875 the name was officially recognized as the name of the nation in the Conference of Pella, although it had been in use for centuries by then.
