The Union of Birenstan is a landlocked country in Kylaris with a population of 24 million people. Straddling South Coius and Rahelia, it borders Xiaodong to the south, Kumuso to the east, Zorasan to the north, and Dakata to the west.
The region comprising modern-day Birenstan was originally inhabited by various South Coius cultures up until the 9th century. In the early 500s, the Great Khan Soll united several tribes into one tribal confederation known as the One Tribe, from which the name Biren is dervied. In the Migration Khan lead his people in the 540s through the Southern Gate to the southern slopes of the Shalegho Mountains where they settled. tThe One Tribe continue to exist until Xiaodong reunited under the Tao dynasty and expanded into the region in the 600s. When the Tao dynasty declined, the Biren gained independence as a series of small kingdoms. Xiao influence would ebb and flow throughout the centuries as the next two dynasties rose and fell and the Biren gained and lost their independence. Nevertheless Xiaodong is able to permanently establish some state institutions in the form of zohist clergy. In the 19th century, the Heavenly Xiaodongese Empire invaded and Birenstan becomes a protectorate under nominal direct control of the emperor. The Biren people would live as subjects of the empire stirring nationalistic sentiments.
These tensions would grow until it exploded during the Great War. In 1934 with Xiao forces in retreat Biren rebels rebelled and overthrew the protectorate government and declared the independence of the Biren Republic in 1934. The Biren Revolutionary War would continue during the Great War, until its end in 1935 where it would be granted formal independence with the Treaty of Keisi. The Xiaodongese Civil War to the south caused economic and political turmoil which contributed to the weakening of the Republic. It ultimately fell to a military coup by nationalist forces in 1945 which was followed by a countercoup by republican forces, and the country fell into a brief civil war. It would end in less than a year when Colonel Sabir, a commander in the armed forces, defected from the republicans and rode a wave of public support to defeat the liberal republicans and the nationalists in a year of fighting. In 1947 he declared the establishment of the Union of Birenstan, a socialist state based upon his ideological principles of "Socialist Thought for the Homeland."
Birenstan is officially a socialist republic, but the government has shifted away from socialist economics within the last several decades after the market reforms of the 1980s. Today the Biren economy functions under what is called neo-Sabirist economics, a form of state capitalism where the central government works closely with the workers of major workers cooperatives to determine economic policy. State approved federations of worker cooperatives make up the backbone of the Biren economy. However Birenstan still maintains the people's union, which establishes a non-partisan hierarchy of assemblies down to the municipal level. Despite its democratic principles, the system has entrenched pro-Sabir factions, leading it to be widely considered to be a classic example of a Southern democracy.
Birenstan is considered a middle power in Kylaris despite its population and geographic location, due to geopolitics of Coius. Due to its historical animosity with Xiaodong, it is closely allied with Senria.
