Naikang ([ˌnaɪ'kæŋ]; 倷扛(民國) - Chengshengese: Nàikāng (Men'gue̤q), [nài.kʰāŋ mēn.kʊ̯ɤ̄ʔ]; Naichinese: Na̤îkáng (Men'ge̤), [nɘî.kʰáŋ mēn.kɛ̄]), officialy the Republic of Naikang, is a nation located in eastern Thrismari, bordering Chengsheng to the south. The country is also separated from the Kakish Tesjkvan Islands to the east by the Gulf of Kouma. The capital is the city of Tachusi.

Naikang has a fully tropical climate, and is affected by equatorial warm water currents along its coastline. The first known references to the region are records from the Kingdom of Gôma, referring to the "untamed frontiers" of the north. The native Nahi, while primitive, were known to be skilled at metallurgy, and were fiercely independent. Starting in the 11th Century CE, Chengshengese settlers began to settle the lowlands of the region, founding the first cities, many of which coincided with old Nahi settlements and adopted their names. Beginning in YEAR, Riamese explorers began to frequent the shores of the nation. By this point, it is known that the Chengshengese of the region were at least somewhat culturally distinguishable from those of the south, and the name "Naikang" had begun to be assigned to the area.

The first permanent Riamese trading settlements were built in YEAR, followed by full colonisation of Naikang in YEAR. The descendants of the Nahi, now identified as the Naikanghi, engaged in a large-scale guerilla resistance against the Riamese. These attempts proved unsuccessful at doing much other than antagonising the colonial government, and Naikanghi were barred from most positions of power, while Changshengese individuals were granted minor roles in government. By the mid 18th Century, some sparse Myacha settlements had emerged in the mountains, potentially to capitalise on mountaineer mercenary contracts that Riamo issued, in the interests of attempted navigation of the mountains of Naikang. In 19[##], after centuries of Riamese rule, Naikang gained independence, first as a unitary state, before swiftly undergoing a civil war that lasted 15 years, largely along ethnic lines. Finally, in 19[##], the civil war concluded and Naikang became a federal republic, with four constituent states and one Federal Province encompassing the capital, Tachusi.
