Zhen, officially the Great Zhen Empire, is a country in South Iteria. Alternatively, the state refers to itself as the State of Zhenmen or Zhenmen. It consists of the archipelago of the Zhenmen Islands and it totals an area of approximately 836km². The islands have a small population of 1.2 million, but Zhenmen recognizes the 31.5 million people in mainland Zhen as its citizens. According to the Zhen Sovereignty Declaration, the United States of Zhen, which controls the mainland, is an illegitimate state and the State of Zhenmen has sovereignty over all Zhen territory. The capital city, Zhenmenjing, is the largest city in the archipelago with a population of 148,147.
While the Sinnitic peoples spread out from South Iteria, there were tribes who opted to settle in the nearby areas. The nomadic Caoyan hordes controlled northern Zhen and the south was cultivated by the sedentary Ascalonians, who found prosperity in trade by the southern coast. This later became the center of the Empire of Dazhou, which controlled the region and expanded further into Zhen, conquering the Caoyans.
In the 17th century, the Empire of Dazhou began to decline and its power weakened over the outlying territories. The Zhen states renounced allegiances to Dazhou in a scramble for power. Instead, Goyanes conquers Dazhou and it became a colonial possession, which would later become Ascalon. Disgruntled by non-Iterians ruling former Dazhou, the Zhen family sought the backing of Syrixia, a rival to Goyanean interests in Iteria. The Zhen, uniting the fragmented Caoyan and Ascalonian states of Zhen, formed the Great Zhen Empire as a tributary state of Syrixia. Syrixian rule of Zhen was undisturbed until the 2nd Nordic-Imperial War.
