East Riziland (weRwizi: Kumabvazuva kweRwizikuru), or Mabvazuva was a district in Rwizikuru, situated east of the districts of Sangoguru kuchamhembe, Sangoguru kumaodzanyemba, and Chekumabvazuva, north of the Banfura Sea, west of the sovereign state Tabora (pre-1952 Silberküste), and south of Habasha, which existed from the end of the Great War in 1936, until the independence of Garambura following the end of the Garamburan War of Independence in 1969.

History
Estmerish rule
On 20 February, 1936, with the end of the Great War, Estmere formally took over most of Baséland from Gaullica, with the remainder being ceded to Habasha. The portions of Baséland that Estmere took control became part of their colony of Riziland, where it became the District of East Riziland, with the first Estmerish administrator of the district being Geoff Simmons.
During this period, railway and telegraph links between Sainte-Germaine were built to connect it to Port Fitzhubert and the rest of the Rizilander railway and telegraph systems, while most aid sent to East Riziland fell into the hands of Sainte-Germaine, allowing Sainte-Germaine to become the most dominant city in the region, at the expense of other cities like (TBD).
However, tensions began to rise between the residents of East Riziland, and the colonial administration, as residents of East Riziland wanted independence separate from that of the rest of the country, while the Rwizikuran National Movement sought independence for the entire colony, including East Riziland and Olongaland.
Thus, in 1941, East Riziland, like the rest of Riziland was granted limited self-government by Estmere. However, opposition due to its composition (eight whites and eight natives) hindered participation, while many nationalists in East Riziland also opposed the integration of East Riziland into the colony. Thus, over the next few years, tensions grew, escalating into the protests in Sainte-Germaine in 1944 with around 250,000 people protesting East Riziland's inclusion in Riziland.
Despite the protests, Estmere refused to grant their demands of a separate colony, with Simmons arguing that dividing the colony would only lead to "more violence between Bahians." This meant that East Riziland participated in the 1945 legislative elections, with many native voters voting in the Rwizikuran National Movement, as they believed that the only way to end colonial rule was to vote in the Rwizikuran National Movement.
After negotiations for independence by the Rwizikuran National Movement, East Riziland was granted independence on 2 December, 1946, as the easternmost district of the Republic of Rwizikuru.
Republican era
in 1946, it becomes independent as part of Rwizikuru, East Riziland becomes District of Mabvazuva in 1947, and outside of Sainte-Germaine is generally neglected as government has more pressing matters to address (i.e. Yekumavirira)

Monarchist era
oh fuck, Izibongo Ngonidzashe has gone off the deep end, intense insurgency, leadup to Garamburan War of Independence
Economy
The economy of East Riziland was for most of its existence heavily centred on Sainte-Germaine, with most development of the district focusing on the city of Sainte-Germaine and its surrounding suburbs, at the expense of the rural areas of East Riziland.

Demographics
presumably similar to Garambura now but probably with way more Mufedha
