Askye (Askyen: Askyea [æska͡ɪ](
listen) is a country in northern Thuadia located in the Sivuk Gulf. The nation shares borders with Aleni in the north, Astariax and Kiyortza in the west, Vescarium in the south and Zefristan to the east. The nation is made up of around 15,450,000 as an estimate for 2021. The capital of Askye is the city of Skingrad, also with the nations highest metropolitan population.
The indigenous Bandi people have inhabited the region for a majority of the history, dating back to around 350 B.C.E. The majority of the nation is made up of Sivuk people who arrived from Aleni in the 14th Century. As a consequence, the indigenous people's populations have greatly decreased as the nation is a majority Sivuk in 2021, with a majority of the Bandi Askyen peoples living in the south. The Sivuk people of the region, over time, developed into using Common as the primary spoken language in the country, with it being the chosen language by a majority of the nations citizens.
Askye's independence as it is today came after sovereignty was guaranteed following the collapse of the Sivuk Empire around a millenium ago and the country has existed in the same, or similar, form since then, however with much change in borders.
The capital of the nation, Skingrad is home to 2.3 million citizens, making it not only the capital but also largest city in Askye. Other small cities in the nation include Tirumen, Cvatch and Petrikota. The nation has temperate climates throughout, which has made Askye a much desired land for colonisers and empires throughout history, with a lot of good, sustainable land in the central regions of the nation. Askye is a fairly flat nation with the highest point being 1,343 metres tall (1,343 metres), however the rest of the nation being much closer to sea level, especially around the coast. A few river systems run through the country, notably the River Boas and River Ollessia
