Askye (Askyen: Askyea) is a country in northern Thuadia located in the Sivuk Gulf. The nation shares borders with Aleni in the north, Astariax and Kiyortza in the west, Vescarium in the south and Zefristan to the east. The nation is made up of around 15,450,000 as an estimate for 2021. The capital of Askye is the city of Coventry, also with the nations highest metropolitan population.
The indigenous Bandi people have inhabited the region for a majority of the history, dating back to around 350 B.C.E. The majority of the nation is made up of Sivuk people who arrived from Aleni in the 14th Century. As a consequence, the indigenous people's populations have greatly decreased as the nation is a majority Sivuk in 2021. The Sivuk people of the region, over time, developed into using Common as the primary spoken language in the country, with it being the chosen language by a majority of the nations citizens.
Askye's independence as it is today came after sovereignty was guaranteed following the collapse of the Sivuk Empire around a chiliad ago and the country has existed in the same, or similar, form since then, however with much change in borders.
The capital of the nation, Coventry is home to 2.3 million citizens, making it not only the capital but also largest city in Askye. Other small cities in the nation include Tirumen, Ovsk and Petrikota. The nation has temperate climates throughout, which has made Askye a much desired land for colonisers and empires throughout history, with a lot of good, sustainable land in the central regions of the nation. Askye is a flat nation with the heighest point being only 659m tall (Xosa Point). A few river systems run through the country, notably the River Boas and River Tynamen
