The Federation of Nuwea(High nuwean:要點華帝國聯邦 Imperial standard transcription:Yàodiǎnhuá dìguó liánbāng)colloquially known as Nuwea (High nuwean:要點國) is a country located in south, southeast and eastern Agleia. The nation is split into 3 major regions by the Lan-Ding-Mountains, leading to large ecologic and climatic diversity in Nuwea. Administratively its divided into 6 constituent kingdoms, 3 special provinces, 36 provinces and 5 imperial cities. Pujing is both the capital and the largest city of Nuwea and the seat of the imperial clan and their court, the civillian government of the federation. Nuweas total population is approximately 840 million which makes it the X most populous country in the world. Modern Nuwea was formed after re-uniting the nation following a 44 year period of disunity that resulted from the collapse of the Cui -dynasty. It managed the
Nuwea draws its lineage from the ancient Kingdom of Jin which was located in the coastal basin of modern day Lübin-province, it was generally considered to be mythical but recent archeological discoveries have brought evidence to light that suggests the opposite. The first polity to develop a structure like the one of later dynasties was the Xi-dynasty which was founded around 1800 BCE.

Etymology

The word "Nuwea" derives from the Nuo-dynasty which was the first one to openly engage in diplomacy and commerce with marisian powers. The official Name of the modern state is the "Imperial Federation of Nuwea" (High nuwean: 要點華帝國聯邦 Imperial standard transcription: Yàodiǎnhuá dìguó liánbāng) and just "Nuwea" or Yàodiǎnguó (要點國) in its short form. Yàodiǎnguó consists of Yàodiǎn (essential) and guó (state). The term is in use to describe the concept of a nuwean nation since the late Jiang-dynasty.

History

Kingdoms of Jin and Sui

The first state in the territory of modern Nuwea, the Jin formed along the estuary of the Dalü river in modern day Lübin-province.

Warring states period

Industrialisation brought many problems to the Cui-empire, especially that of some local governours using the massive increase in taxation that developed as a product of the increase in production capacity. Especially in the coastal regions some viceroys even began to independently build up armies and naval forces. The central government was largely unable to intervene as it was both in the full rights of viceroys and governours to build up local security forces and as they were paid in a certain percentage of the total tax revenue instead of a fixed amount. But finally in 1878, after the Viceroy of Shuizhou Hu Xiang was arrested and discharged after attempting to independently sign a trade agreement with XXXX the government began cracking down on all "factionalist and seperatist" activities by governours, viceroys and military leaders. A great reform plan was announced which intailed the following points:

1. Creation of a national council in which all governours and viceroys would be represented
2. A general tax reform which would limit the power of governours in regards to taxation.
3. Creation of the National infrastructure and railway agency whose approval would be needed for the construction of any major infrastructure project like a railway or harbour. It was also to asess all currently existing infrastructure and recommend improvements.
4. Restrcition of the local security forces to a maximum of 15.000 men.

While some governours welcomed the new policy most saw it as unlawful restriction on their rights by a increasingly desperate central government. As emperor Cheng Gaozhong of Cui died in 1881 and was succeeded by his son Zhongshan some of the anti-reform governours became hopeful that they could influence the rather young new emperor to roll back some of his fathers reforms and allow for more autonomy in the provinces again. During the early reign of Zhongshan several factions of high ranking government officials emerged that attempted to sway imperial favour in their direction. Most prominet among them was the Shanshang clique led by Zhang Yuanhong, at the time viceroy of Fushan, who was a strong proponent of moderate reform.

The Prince Liu Affair

Duke Ming Kyuin of Song.

In 1891 the factional conflict escalated when the 2nd Prince of Liu, Deng Licheng was revealed by the Shanshang clique to have illegaly diverted funds from the construction of the Baixiu-Daiping railway for personal construction projects. After several calls for him to resign were ignored by emperor Zhongshan the the duke of Song and commander of the Southwestern military district Ming Kyuin decided to take manners into his owns hands. On the 14th of October he together with around 200 men of his personal guard ambushed the prince of Liu while he was on leaving his summer residence in Zanzhou. After a short skirmish Dengs guards were overwhelmed by the attackers, who forced both the prince and his enturage to kneel on the road in front of their palaquins. The duke of song than ebgan to read a prepared speech in which he declared that the prince of Liu had been sentenced to death for his "crimes against the empire and its people" as well as "his evil and treacherous character" which was "a danger to all that is moral and good".

Upon learning of the murder of his cousin emperor Zhongshan ordered the duke of Song to either surrender himself and everyone involved in the murder of his cousin to the imperial authorities ot expect retaliation. As Ming Kyuin refused this order Zhongshan ordered general Hong Yutin of the 3rd Banner of the Southwestern military district to arrest the duke. But Hong, also refused the order leading to the government in Pujing to officially declare the 5 provinces making up the southwestern military district in open rebellion against the crown. While some generals like Hu Cai the viceroy of Wei and Xiang Shi, the duke of Wu followed the order and began mobilisng their troops towards the southwest but the general distrust of many viceroys and governours towards eachother meant that it came to skirmishes all over the country as the imperial armies had to brute force their entry into certain prefectures, cities or provinces. In this general chaos many peasants and farmers, as well as those who lost their houses and businesses in the fighting boundled together in self defense corps who now also began attacking imperial soldiers and officials. Some of them, like the Armies of Divine Order had a religious background while organisations like the Blue Banners were primarily driven by intellectuals and had larger ideological goals of creating a nuwean republic. The empire at this point was in such a chaotic state that any semblence of an central authority was gone, units of different generals, all sent to fight the duke of Song began attacking eachother instead, some provinces just declared independence from the empire while others just began attacking and annexing territories from their neighnouring provinces. Many of those rebellious commanders at this point also began appointing their own officials, administrators and officers to fill the posts lost by defection.

Nuwea is parliamentary monarchy operating under a semi-democratic system. It is a centralised,federal state in which the head of all branches of government is the monarch. The legislative is made up of the elected Imperial Yihui, the appointed Council of advisors, the Conference of rulers, which is made up of the heads of certain subdivisions, and the Imperial crown embodied in the figure of the monarch. The Yihui and council of advisors are responsible for the main business of the national government with a majority in both houses being necessary for any law to be passed, although the imperial government, either in the form of the responsible department or the monarch themself need to approve any law for it to take affect. The operations, principles and duties of all 3 houses of parliament are codified in the 1964 constitution.

Since 1997 the duties of monarch and head of state are being performed by empress Hu Jinfei of Wei.

Imperial government

The imperial government is made up of the 14 imperial departments and 3 grand-secretariats as well as the monarch. Its duties consist of managing the day to day affairs of the imperial household, ensuring the safety of all members of the imperial clan and assisting the monarch in any and all affairs.

Imperal cities

Imperial cities (High nuwean: are cities that hold the same administrative status as a province while only being one city. Usually the reason why a city is granted this special status is a certain population size but it can also be political or economic importance, examples for those cities would be Zhongjin which is directly governed by the Imperial court and Choqi which serves as the nations largest harbour and therefore was granted special economic and political priviledges.
