Wàhngjāu, officially known as the Republic of Wàhngjāu (Jau: 宏周 共和国 Wàhngjāu Guhngwòhgwok) is a Unitary Parliamentary Flawed-Democratic Republic in Southern Yidao, located on the planet Aeia. It shares a border to the east with Qyred. Its capital, Tīnyèuhng, is found on the the southern coast of the country and is home to the Hùhngyúkgūng (Jau: 紅玉宮), seat of power of the National Diet.

Wàhngjāu takes up an area of X square kilometers, much of which acts as fertile plains around the Hāksā River, with rugged hills forming in the far north, coalescing around the northwest. It has a population of about 107 million. Most of the nations population is situated in the southern and lowland areas, with most large metropolises located on the coast or the major rivers, and rural agricultural communities in the northern provinces, though several major cities can be spotted in the Northern regions of the nation. The land is recognized for its relatively uniform climate, growing colder the further north one goes. Geography is based around the Hāksā, with the various macro-regions in the country forming into an array of deep river valleys and broad basins as its core, and high plateaus and light rolling plains in the north.

The Republic is divided up into 18 Provinces of varying autonomy, which are further divided into a multitude of local Wards. The nation operates under a meritocracy and representative democracy through a single transferable vote. Executive power is held jointly in the form of the Heads of State and Government, or the Chief Minister (Jau: 首席部長 Sáujihk Bouhchèuhng) and First Minister (Jau: 第一部長 Daih Yāt Bouhchèuhng) respectively. Legislative power is in the form of a Unicameral political legislature, the National Diet, and Judicial power is held in duality between the Judicial Court and the Judicial Tribunal, each handling varying civil, political, economic, international, and military proceedings.

The country was first formed after the first National Diet seized power from the Jāu Imperial Government in 1644. A new military government under the Committee for National Defense, or Gwokfòhngwái (Jau: 國防委) would be established in 1929, notable for maintaining a formal government system disseminating power evenly between various military figures, as opposed to a standard Military Dictatorship. The Republican government would be officially restored in 1968, with power being completely handed over a year later and a new government would be formed around Chief Minister Héui Gihnwàhng.
