Panjaap, officially the Dominion of Panjaap, is a country in South Panjin. It is the first-most populous country and the most populous democracy in the world. Bounded by the Panjaapi Ocean on the south, the Saracenian Sea on the southwest, and the Bay of Gaudesh on the southeast, it shares land borders with Elam to the west; Bereket, Panchen, and Dalali to the north; Jin, Banthat and Riau to the east; and Nanyang in the south. In the Panjaapi ocean, Panjaap is in the vicinity of Saracenia and Kolombanga, sharing a maritime border with both nations.

The first humans to settle in Panjaap are estimated to date back over 50,000 years, to early Alkebulani settlers who migrated into the fertile region of Southern Panjin. Although evidence exists to date civilization back to then, the first recorded instance of an organized civilization in Panjaapi lands is from 3500BCE, with the emergence of the Chiefdom of Nanaka, an agricultural society based in the northern Kuruk region. The Nanaka Chiefdom marked the foundation of the Nanakism, with the exact literary origin of the faith still unknown. Nanaka over the course of ~1200 years was able to consolidate power and create the first empire of the subcontinent, the Empire of The Nanaki (Panjaapi: नानकी साम्राज्य) which occupied the northern reaches of Panjaap, along the Lhasan mountain range. The Nanaki Empire proceeded to dominate the subcontinent, amassing tributary states throughout the region before their eventual collapse in 1300BC, when the Nanaki tributary states organized a revolt and kicked off The War of Ascendancy, which went on to claim an estimated 537,000,000 lives, as well as the Nanaki Empire.

Demographics

Education

Panjaap has a large education population compared to its total population figures. Stagnian colonization allowed for the development of a sizable Hoosier-speaking educated population, which persists to this day and acts as the mind driving force behind Panjaap's development into an export economy. The nations literacy rate as of 1994 is estimated to be at 34%, with significant growth projected due to the new boosted budget allocated towards public education.

For Panjaapi citizens, attendance of Primary and Secondary schooling is mandatory by law in urban areas. In rural areas where education resources aren't widely available, programs are offered to provide the resources needed to allow for individuals to study in urban centers and bring that knowledge back to their rural homes. As of 1994, Panjaap has roughly 350 universities, 15,000 colleges and 900 thousand schools, with aims under the cohen administration to increase these figures to 900 universities, 40,000 colleges and 1.5 million schools by 2000.

Religion

There are three major religions that dominate Panjaap: Nanakism, Esotericism and Materialsim.

Nanakism is present in Panjaap due to the prominence of the Nanaki Empire during the early cultural stages of the Panjaapi subcontinent. Esotericism is a set of beliefs pushed by Prime Minister Dognauld Cohen centred around crackpot outlandish conspiracy theories with an overarching goal of discovering the secrets of the universe. Esotericism is the least prominent of the three religions, only widely followed by individuals in direct cooperation with Dognauld Cohen or his cabinet. Materialism is the newest of the three sects, conceived by Gint Woon, CEO of Daewoo on the 5th of May, 1994. Materialism spirituality flows largely from the belief that the universe is bound together in the Great Material Continuum. A Follower who lives a good life (one who made a profit and accumulated wealth) is said to navigate the Great River of the Continuum. Such Followers are rewarded for their success in interpreting the wants and needs of this life by positioning themselves for success in the next life. Materialism made it into Panjaap through the state's diplomatic ties with the cooperation of Daewoo, now being taught in primary schooling as well as in homeless shelters.
