Costak, officially the Costakan Sovern States, is a country located in the far South West of Olivacia, a major portion of its population is centered around the capital of Sevrek with a substantial amount also being found in the Svyaz agricultural lands. The nation borders the Kaldaz which also plays a major role in the nation's history, culture and economy. Among the nations five states live a population of 6.243 million people.

Etymology

The name Costak comes from a combination of words from the Slavic language of Costakian. It combines the word for coast, that being "cost" alongside the word "parak" which means port. The reason for the nation, in essence, being called "port coast" is due to its orgins as a union between costal cities in the region before it was expanded to the Northern mountains.

Language

While common and a few other languages are also spoken across Costak due to immigration, Costakian remains the most spoken in the region. Costakian is a primarily Slavic language, with Costak's first settlers being those who sailed from Slavic lands in the West. There is however also influence from other languages such as common due to Costak's more local neighbors.

History

Pre 1000 AC

Slavic people from the South West of Thrismari, explorers, traveled across the Kaldaz ocean and reached the South West of Olivacia. These people lived off the land for a while before reaching the modern day Sevrek and Svyaz regions which were optimal for settling in small populations thanks to their temperate weather, fertile soil, and seaside position allowing for fishing. The region also remained fairly defendable thanks to the Northern mountains.

1650 to 1845

As the colonial era began, the at the time king of Costak, Vadim Ivanov realized that the minor nation with its small industry, population, and military, would be unable to fully resist an invasion from a colonial power. With this realization, the king looked to Morrawia for aid,
