The Thearchy of the Great Kinh (Acanic: 𠘲秦光䆐, ḻá kính vang kwṳx), shortened to Kinh [ki:ɳ] or just simply Akai is a theocratic absolute monarchy in Southeastern Borea, taking up the whole of the subcontinent of the same name. It is surrounded wholly by the sea, with the Voragic in the east and the Mercorian in the west. It shares its only maritime border with Narmada. With a population of XX million, its largest island, XXX, holds about XX% of it, while La Kinh Ru, its formal metropole, holds XX%.
Akai is nominally theocratic absolute monarchy based around the divine power of the Thearch (𢂇命 tex riành), ruling with legitimacy both as sovereign and head of the Bin Krong (遍宮 "universal temple"), the country's Kiaist ecclessia. While the Thearch and the Bin Krong hold immense influence, the country's relative size has led to an informal confederation, with a socio-political plurality of with various constituent institutions coexisting under a centralized state economy helmed by the government in Qung. Such disconnect has been the point of sweeping reforms, particularly under the reign of Xiet Xak in order to modernize the state.
[history]
Despite its size and economic strength, Akai currently exists as an international pariah within the world stage, held under a cordon sanitaire both due to political developments during the Volatile Century and reports of blatant disregard for human dignity. With the exception of Min, Akai has been essentially isolated from the world for over a hundred years. Despite of this, its large areas of unspoiled natural environment and percieved exotic culture, Akai has been referred to as "The Great Sanctuary".
Etymology
Environment and geography
History
Government and politics
Akai is a absolute monarchy with strong theocratic aspects, in Monic political classification the country would be considered a sovereign empire (主國 tshiukwok, çǔkwṳx). Its sovereignty is based around the divine power of the sovereign, called the Thearch. Being an autocratic institution, there exists no formal form of delegating authority to the people, and political movements, if any exist only within the context of Celestial Court factionalism within the imperial court and the bureaucracy. Despite this, its unitary structure is coupled with devolved internal constituents being composed of a variety of polities (主團, çǔ thộnh) which wield considerable autonomy. Critics regard it as a “totalitarian autocracy with the sheen of a progressive, modern state”, though such definitions are disputed by other commentators as being a substantially more complex state (see below).
Modern Akai's state structure was developed out of the reform period of Thearch Xiet Xak (杰愙). It was a formalization of the increasingly de facto confederated structure of the empire, from turning the Celestial Court, the Thearch's personal advisory council, to a full-blown consultative assembly of state, to the delegation of "sovereign power" to corporate groups (the çǔ thộnh) which administer Akai's vast and sprawling institutions, owing to the country's massive area. It is coupled with the institutions of the Bin Krong clergy (bin thộnh), which operate in parallel to the çǔ thộnh. The Akai state, since the reforms are governed by the New Legalist (新法 şi pkọa) ideology, stressing a self-sufficient, conservative and microcosmic realm that forms the basis of imperial glory.
Monarchy
The Acanic monarchy, called the Thearchy (𢂇命 tex riành), is the paramount and central authority of the Acanic state. It is currently held by the lineage of La Kinh. While legally absolute and capable of acting in a state of exception; the Thearchs are bound by preceding custom, the wills and projects of their predecessors and the inertia of the state. The Thearch is seen as a living god, as the emanation of the Goddess Xanh Trin and the spiritual father of the Acanic peoples. This is reinforced by the Goddess' spheres, which represent clarity and self-realizing order, which the Thearch is said to embody through the state.
By the principle of transferred lineage, the Thearchic dynasties secondarily base their divinity through (physical and/or spiritual) descent to the first sovereign, Kánh Zwn (who also claimed to be an incarnation of the Goddess), which they claim that his consciousness pervades through that bloodline. This is represented by the idea of the Fourteen Faces, which say that all Thearchs either embody each of the 14 aspects of Kanh Zwn, and in turn of Xanh Trin. This complex divine status of the Thearch lends him paramount authority
As the currently reigning Thearch, Liannu, he fills the role of Thearch and serves the absolute executive, judiciary and religious authority within Akai. Due to his youth, he has two regents, his primary wife Grand Empress Thiaungtsu, his mother, and the Grand Chancellor Prince Sanfu, his uncle. They and the Grand Council of State largely govern the directly held territories of the Thearch. The Thearch has four viceroyalties based upon the ancient kingdoms which used to exist in the areas, with various families who rely upon a system of “twice royal” appointments in which the viceroys are the offspring of relationships with Consorts who are themselves descendants of non-castimonial marriages. These along with the commandaries largely manage the territories of the Thearch which he holds personally.
Diarchy of power
Dual power but its between mayors and jesuits
Economy
Demographics
The religion of Khaturvism is the second largest religion in Akai, being most prevalent in the more cosmopolitan northern regions.
Culture and society
Due to Akai's relative isolation, Monic culture in the Kinh islands developed radically different due to its exchange with the Boreolahudic XXX and the aboriginal XXX cultures. [...] The government is increasingly making efforts to preserve and sustain the current culture and traditions of the country.
Akai society and modern Akai culture remains deeply religious and conservative, still steeped in centuries-old traditions and a deep insistence towards community and a higher morality. Following the principle of "celebrating good and forbidding wrong", there are considerable limitations and prohibitions on behaviour and dress which are strictly enforced both legally and socially, often more so than in wider East Borea. Daily life is dominated by religious observance, with ancestor worship being an integral part. State institutions and religious practice are intertwined, and the sovereign person have been a focal point of folk worship.
Despite such reactionary attitudes, East Borea's general divergent views on sexuality has led to a degree of sexual permissiveness that would be seen as "liberal" by western standards.
Arts and aesthetics
The creative arts are an upheld value in Akai culture.

The State of Vuat Minh, more commonly Vuat Minh, is a Monic republic in the far eastern end of Borea, bordered by Bayaw to the east. It spans a part of the Borean southern coast and has jurisdiction under the islands of Plang and Lengchhoàn.
Nowadays a cosmopolitan yet politically rigid country, it was considered to be one of the first abberations of the Monic world. Vuat Minh existed out of necessity--the influx of northern Monic tribes during the early-middle medieval period leading to conflicts with the native Vuatese people, achieving peace only after a hundred years. Both believing a singular King would lead to an imbalance of the new affairs, the people opted for a diarchy—one the head priest of the faith to lead the Minh, the other a paramount ruler with the assent of the Vuatese.
Vuat Minh is a consociational society, held mainly by the protectors of the Law and the elected twin executives of the state. While a union in more ways than one, the Minh and the Vuatese historically eschewed to intermingle, preferring to stick to their own kind and leaving each other in their own affairs (cf. Pillarization). Each subdivision, be it a Clan or a community, governs themselves, congregating through the Celestial Court in which they address matters of common public order. The Court, unlike in western legistlatures, serves as the central government institution and the basis of the country's political sovereignty and unity. The twin executives of state are nowadays elected from the ranks of the court, formally as masters of state rites. The only independent and equally central authority in this is the Celestial Concordance of Jurists, who are tasked with judging the affairs of state if it is in accordance to the Fundamental Decrees of State, and enforcing it through the State Guard
The country's recent spike of urbanization disturbed the traditional agrarian country, being late to the Eastern Industrial Revolution. It has created a rift between the city and the rural lands. Social and at times economic inequality has risen since the country's development in the 60's (thanks to reforms that strengthened the Council and Court).
Today, Minh Vuat recently has been steadily working towards exporting soft power through cultural goods, with a proliferation of the entertainment industry since the 90's, to offset the sudden shock of industrialization to the traditionally agrarian country. Today, Minh Vuat's image as a cultural powerhouse (music, film, literature and art) has been influential in the progress of modern oriental pop culture. Vuat Minh however, continues to be rife with social inequality and corruption; politics remains to be the domain of the elite, whose close or familial ties are necessary to participation. The country's loose drug policy (brought by a longstanding usage of entheogenics such as cannabis) has made the country a sanctuary within the global drug trade, something that subsequent governments have struggled to curb.
Etymology
Minh from Minh, Vuat both from Yue and also Tagalog "Buhat" (liquefied to Vuat due to monosyllabic trend in Monic).
