Kolhar, officially the Federal State of Kolhar, is an island nation in Aurelia. It covers 239,930 km² spread across 2 large islands, alongside a number of smaller islands. Most of these islands are in a desert climate, though the eastern portion of the main island is home to a relatively more moderate climate. It has a population of about 39,534,000 people, mostly concentrated in the eastern side of the island and along the countries rivers.

Etymology

The name for Kolhar written in Kolhari is ꡢꡡꡘꡦꡘ and pronounced qorar. It is believed to refer to the Kol proto-Kolhari tribe. The earliest recorded reference to a similar name comes from the Sheng dynasty, which received an embassy from a country they called Kolkug (written 戈國).

History

Early Settlement

The earliest record of human settlement on the islands of Kolhar date back to 30,000 BCE. During this time an ancient hunter-gatherer culture existed on the island. Starting from around 700 BCE there was a large migration to the islands. Based on the records of the tools used, these people are believed to be proto-Mitonese, and would continue to migrate to the island until roughly 1 CE. Around 400 BCE a separate wave of migration to Kolhar began from the east, where proto-Kolhari's migrated from the Aurelian mainland to the island. Archaeological evidence indicates these proto-Kolhari people clashed with the proto-Mitonese people and began driving them westward, and eventually to the north and south.

Politics

Kolhari politics take place in the framework of a presidential republic. The Davil acts as both the head of state and head of government. According to the constitution there are limits places on the Davil's power, however in practice the Davil wields unlimited and unchecked political authority through the entire country. Furthermore, while officially the law allows opposition political parties, in practice no political party has official recognition aside from the Kolhari Advancement Party, and the country operates as a de facto one-party state.
