History
Lin Dynasty
The Lin Dynasty (林朝; Lín Cháo) was the first Dynasty of Huranian descent to rule over the Great Plain since the Kuang Dynasty and the Great Tribulation. It fought against both Tartares kingdoms and other Huranian states to expand its dominion over the entirety of Huran, although it never managed to do so. Despite recreating a purely Huranian court culture, the Lin remained heavily influenced by Tartares people, retaining the system of their predecessors whereas two separate governments operated in parallel with one another: one for the nomadic populations still inhabiting the Great Plain and the borderlands, and one for the urban Huranian populations.
It's during the Lin Dynasty that Auressians first arrived in Neidi, establishing trade ports and missions on the coastline under the strict overwatch of Imperial Supervisors. Tensions within Lin' aristocracy led to the Tan-Zheng Disorder (覃鄭亂; Tán-Zhèng Luàn), which tore down the imperial institution, before the Three-Brothers Uprising ended both the civil war and the Lin, establishing the Hong Dynasty in its stead.
Geography
The Great Plain
the Great Plain (literary Huranian : 太平原; Tàipíngyuán) is a great delta created from silt dropped at the Queen River (后河; Hòu Hé)'s mouth over the millennia. It extends over most Shang Fa, covering an area of about 400,000 square kilometers, most of which is less than 70 metres above sea level. Although its soil is fertile, the weather is unpredictable being at the intersection of humid winds from the Ocean and dry winds from the interior of the continent. This makes the plain prone to both floods and drought. Moreover, the flatness of the plain promotes massive flooding when river works are damaged. Thourough the millenia, the plain was the population and agricultural center of the successive dynasties that controled northern Huran. This did not change with Shang Fa.
Currently, the great plain covers slightly over half of the country and is the residence of eighty percents of its population. Sorghum, Wheat, millet, maize, and cotton are the main agricultural products cultivated in the region, although there are many others.
The Huranian name of the plain can be alternatively read as either "Greatest Plain" or "Plain of the Great Peace".
