It is said according to legend that the deity of a warrior princess named '''Yangchen Guul-la''' watches over the land of '''Gesaria''' and the neighbouring region of '''Lilytopia''' ,constantly striking down what she deems as "forces of evil" who intend on disrupting the region's natural order. According to the accounts written by '''Dorjee Gyalzen,''' a Qakhok scholar around 3000 years ago, Princess Yangchen was born around 3000BC as the Empress of [[wikipedia:Gangtok|Gangtok]], a city in Sikkim situated in the far North of Gesaria. It is said that Princess Yangchen was an extremely powerful princess whom everyone in the Kingdom feared and respected. In Dorjee's accounts, he mentions Princess Yangchen's extreme grip on power and stable rule in a region where rulers are often deposed from their thrones in a matter of months. It mentions how many critics of the Princess or people causing violence are often immediately thrown into dungeons where they are left to die in horrible conditions, but it also made the kingdom more peaceful and prosperous as there were hardly any conflicts between the many ethnic groups in the region. | It is said according to legend that the deity of a warrior princess named '''Yangchen Guul-la''' watches over the land of '''Gesaria''' and the neighbouring region of '''Lilytopia''' ,constantly striking down what she deems as "forces of evil" who intend on disrupting the region's natural order.

History
The Legend of Yangchen
It is said according to legend that the deity of a warrior princess named Yangchen Guul-la watches over the land of Gesaria and the neighbouring region of Lilytopia ,constantly striking down what she deems as "forces of evil" who intend on disrupting the region's natural order. According to the accounts written by Dorjee Gyalzen, a Qakhok scholar around 3000 years ago, Princess Yangchen was born around 3000BC as the Empress of Gangtok, a city in Sikkim situated in the far North of Gesaria. It is said that Princess Yangchen was an extremely powerful princess whom everyone in the Kingdom feared and respected. In Dorjee's accounts, he mentions Princess Yangchen's extreme grip on power and stable rule in a region where rulers are often deposed from their thrones in a matter of months. It mentions how many critics of the Princess or people causing violence are often immediately thrown into dungeons where they are left to die in horrible conditions, but it also made the kingdom more peaceful and prosperous as there were hardly any conflicts between the many ethnic groups in the region.
Dorjee's accounts mention Yangchen's battle prowess and combat skills,especially displayed in the war against the invading tribe of Azunga, who suddenly invaded her Kingdom and burned many villages to the ground,killing many people.Yangchen immediately called up her army and faced the Azungas in battle, where Princess Yangchen single-handedly killed 7,000 men by herself. She went on to inflict many more defeats on the Azunga with her army of 7,000 , inflicting nearly 56,000-89,000 casualties on the Azunga, which represented nearly 75% of their male population. In March of 2975BC, her army reached the Azungan capital of Garjin, where she proceeded to defeat the city defenders and burn Garjin to the ground.
The sky on that day grew dark and cloudy as Yangchen entered Garjin with her army.The people of Garjin were all indoors trying to hide from her seething desire for revenge. The entire city was quiet until Yangchen screamed out loud "Men, burn this city to the ground and leave nothing breathing!". She lit a torch and began burning every house she came across as her men began killing those who were hiding inside. The sky glowed a dark orange as the city burned to ashes,along with the defenders of the city and the Azunga leadership while she watched from a hill away,satisfied with her revenge at the people who brought nothing but death and destruction to her domain. -The Legend of Yangchen, Chapter 21
In a diary recovered from the Talbushek Archives believed to belong to Empress Yangchen, she remarked on the sheer amounts of loot she had captured from the enemy, writing, but may not be accurately translated - "In my unmatched glory, I have captured nearly 200 tons of gold and riches from the enemy, as well as around 10,000 people from all ages and backgrounds that I can now make to do my bidding".It is believed that the captured slaves from Garjin were later used to construct Yangchen's opulent palace, which still stands today in the city of Qana-Qanaqaa.
Empress Yangchen died at the age of 46 in Caldemount in 2954BC, potentially of liver cirrhosis due to her extremely lavish lifestyle, but in the legend, it is stated that Yangchen died after the Gods called her back to Heaven, saying that she had used her Mandate of Heaven well.
Empress Yangchen as the Mother of Gesaria
Due to her status as an extremely revered and worshipped woman, Yangchen's legacy lived on for millennia after her death, with many people believing that her spirit protects the land of Gesaria and Lilytopia, watching over everything that goes on within her domain, and constantly driving away the aforementioned "forces of evil" like disease and invaders. To this day, many people go to her palace in Qana-Qanaqaa to ask for her protection and guidance, with some even asking for their enemies to be cursed by her. Worshippers commonly recite the "Yangchen Ritual" ,which states -
"Those who worship you and recognize you as their divine intercessor, and partner of Gesar and the Heavenly Deities, shall be blessed with fortune and be shielded in your arms. But those who are against you and us who believe, shall be cursed from now to the afterlife" -Ritual of Yangchen
Tribal Era and Bishnu, the Father of Gesaria
After the era of Empress Yangchen and her Kingdom fades away into history, around 2000BC, the land of Gesaria is mostly made up again of nomadic tribes of the Qakhok people, people who are native to the Land of Gesaria and the ancient Kingdom of Yangchen. There were around 6 main tribes: the Choden, Kungar, Ramlek, Azung, Pol-en and Yangin. These tribes were mostly divided amongst each other but lived peacefully for eight hundred years until relationships suddenly broke down between the tribes in 1200BC. It is said that the Azung and Ramlek tribes disagreed on the extent of their domains, leading to a skirmish between them that dragged all the other tribes into the conflict known as the First Sikkim War. Choden and Yangin backed the Ramleks while Kungar and Pol-en backed Azung.
The Ramleks, led by warlord Bishnu Rasmijoti however had vastly superior numbers and technology and easily managed to overwhelm the enemy tribes and force them to surrender after 1 and a half years of fighting. In the negotiations, it was decided that the 6 tribes would unite under Bishnu to form a new unified nation-state, the Kingdom of Bishnu Pradesh.
Bishnu Pradesh would go on to be a prosperous and powerful state and the dominating power in South and Southeast Asia, winning many battles against the other warlords in China, extending his empire from Delhi in the west to the Philippines to the east. In 790BC, the twin warlords of Yuan Shao and Shang Jin invaded Bishnu's territory in Vietnam. Bishnu succesfully defeated them at the Battle of Huanjin, forcing the twin warlords to retreat back into China.
It was the dawn of the winter solstice when the two warlords faced Bishnu.They had far superior numbers than Bishnu, and they were confident on their victory. But they were no match for the strong and powerful Bishnu who soundly defeated them. A thousand men couldn't equal to his strength. The two warlords were forced to retreat like cowards, having learned their lesson - "If you dare to attack the man who equals a thousand men, you will bring death and dishonor to yourself and your nation. - Biography of Bishnu by Akar Dhargey, Chapter 10
Legacy
Bishnu would carve up a massive empire and cemented his legacy as one of the greatest military generals in history, far outmatching most generals for his time. He was known for his early use of modern-day tactics like blitzkrieg and exhaustion and attrition in fighting enemies. At the empire's peak, it was estimated that around 5 million people called the empire home, representing 10% of the world population at the time. Bishnu Pradesh was also one of the very few stable and long-lasting nation-states that existed at the time, with Bishnu Pradesh lasting for 600 years.
Bishnu Pradesh is widely known in the country as the official beginning of Gesaria, as Bishnu was born and raised in Khuukh-Uzuur in modern day Gesaria. To this day, Bishnu Rasmijoti is considered as the founder and father of Gesaria , unlike later leaders because they only served to refound Bishnu Pradesh.
Bishnu Rasmijoti died at the age of 64 in 1160BC in Khantuan (modern day Jezero in the Bazzo Province), surrounded by his advisors and soldiers. At his funeral in Khuukh-Uzuur, nearly 15,000 men attended, saluting the man who brought glory and honor to this land. Bishnu's son, Akumu Rasmijoti would inherit the throne from his father, and further solidify Bishnu Pradesh's existence.
Fall of Bishnu Pradesh and the Bhavikian Period
After the era of Bishnu, his descendants would continue on ruling Bishnu Pradesh for 600 years until 600BC, when an incompetent leader name Dujom Garab would rise to the Bishnute throne. Dujom was a weak leader, while his advisors, had grown corrupt with all of the wealth flowing into the empire. As such, the state of Bishnu Pradesh started growing unstable, as many of the tribes that had allied with Bishnu 600 years ago, felt like they were being betrayed. A period of infighting erupted between the tribes, known as the Second Sikkim War, resulting in many of the tribes cutting ties with Garab's government.
Another warlord to the south in Manipur, named Bhavik Agarwal, noticing Bishnu Pradesh's increasing instability, launched an invasion of the empire. The Bishnute army, underequipped and undersuppplied due to the weak and corrupt government, were soundly defeated and massacred by Bhavik's army, leading a genocidal campaign of conquest against Bishnu Pradesh. Bhavik soon reached Bishnu Pradesh's capital in Choibalsan, entering the city and burning it to the ground, slaughtering many civilians along the way in a style similar to Yangchen's conquests one thousand years prior. Bhavik's army seized the palace, forcing Khan Dujom Garab to step down from the throne where he was beheaded and displayed in public a few days later. After Bhavik succesfully took control of the Bishnute capital, he immediately proclaimed himself the new emperor and officially declared the new Kingdom of Bhavikia and Kozudia, stemming from his name and the name of his allied warlord, Kozud Gyalwa.
The brutality of Bhavikian rule
In the following years after the foundation of the KBK, the people of the former Bishnu Pradesh were enslaved and oppressed by the new government based in Bhana in Manipur. Atrocities were frequent and the new government ruled the land with an iron fist.
Atrocities
The new government commited many atrocities on the Qakhok and Bishnute people. Many people were forced into slavery to harvest grain and cotton. Children were being kidnapped from their villages and forced to mine coal in the Himalayas, with hardly any clothing in the regularly freezing temperatures. Children unable to meet their quotas often have fingers removed or at their worst, their entire families shot and killed in front of them while being brutally punished for any expression of grief. Women are often abused and forced into unspeakable acts by their masters, as well as being forcefully starved if they do not comply with the orders and desires of the "master race". Most of the strongest and most capable men are forced to do hard labor like lifting bricks to construct massive houses and palaces, forced to work 18 hours a day and fed very little, only around one small bowl of rice every day.
The new government also engages in purposely using famine as a means to control the population from rebellion, often cutting entire villages off from food if even one person acts rebelliously. The people in these villages were so deprived of food that they started cannibalizing each other. Those who were old or young who could not contribute to the village were often devoured. Families were forced into eating their own relatives, and children often saw their grandparents being eaten. Life was terrible, but no one could gather enough support to overthrow this new government.
Death of Bhavik Agarwal
Bhavik Agarwal died at the age of 56, likely because of colon cancer , and the throne was passed on to Kozud Gyalwa, who upon inheriting the throne, immediately abdicated for Bhavik's son, Omar Agarwal, to take the throne. The brutality of the KBK's reign continued long after Bhavik's death, lasting all the way to 100BC until things started to change towards the favor of the oppressed people.
