Chenes, officially the Republic of Chenes is a sovereign nation located in Norumbia. It borders Moxaney and Awasan to the north, Mniohuta to the west and Gristol-Serkonos to the south. It is bordered in the east by the North Thalassan Sea. The capital of Chenes is Ville de Augusta, with Piscataquis City as the most populous city. Chenes is geographically divided between West Chenes and East Chenes, both of which have vastly different climate conditions, economic development, flora and fauna. Ville de Augusta serves as the capital of Chenes with Piscataquis City serving as the most-populous city. The population of Chenes is approximately 19.7 million people, with over 82% of which live in East Chenes. The majority of people self-identify as Chênique.

The area known as Chenes first began as the homeland of two primary indigenous groups, the Tsalagi and the Wαpánahki. There were many other different tribes but the largest tribes often engaged in proxy wars with these tribes. The two most dominant tribes were the Tsalagi tribe of the Quanassee and the Wαpánahki tribe of Androscoggin. This changed when the Company of New Augusta, a group of Audonic settlers, landed on the shore of modern day Ville de Augusta. Ville de Augusta was established as the first settlement under the private ownership of the Company of New Augusta. The Audonic settlers were welcomed by the Wαpánahki tribe of Winnibisauga.

During the founding years of Chenes, the country was not a unified entity but various merchants, tradesmen and civilians that began to dot the area with various small trading posts. The only central locations during these times were the coastal cities of Ville de Augusta and Ville de Amiens. The only other inland location that served as a central location for the Audonic settlers was Vignobles, which existed in the land of the Wαpánahki tribe of Amaseconti. In 1813, the Augusta Assembly was held between the Audonic settlers and representatives from the Androscoggin and Quanassee. The Augusta Assembly created the Confederation of Chenes, which was a very loose union between the Audonic settlers, now called the Chenique; and the Androscoggin. The Quanassee delegates abandoned the Assembly midway due to disagreements.

The Quanassee and the majority of smaller Tsalagi tribes later declared war on the Confederation of Chenes in the War of Androscoggin-Etinne in 1824. The war saw the eventual inclusion of the Quanassee and Tsalagi tribes under the Confederation with almost free-reigning autonomy. In 1914, the Penobscot Assembly was held which federalized the confederation and saw a stronger central government with weaker state governments. The Penobscot Assembly also resolves to recognize the Quanassee as a singular political entity that participated within the federal government and held free reign as an almost entirely separate country under the protection of Chenes.

Chenes is currently a federal legislative-dependent republic. The head of state and head of government are elected within the Senate of Chenes, the upper house in the Legislature of Chenes. The executive branch is the Executive Council of Chenes, which is led by the President of Chenes. Chenes is officially trilingual at a federal government level, with states being able to choose which languages to represent as their official language. Chenes has historically been a nation that focuses on railroad and transportation as an economic option, and is a founding member of the Commercial Railway Company that serves Moxaney and Gristol-Serkenos. Chenes is strictly an unaligned nation and refuses to engage with international conflicts that do not threaten Chenes. As a result, Chenes military is extremely small and only contains one branch, the Border Guard of Chenes.

Etymology

The term Chêne comes from the Audonic word for the oak tree. While the majority of wood that was used was pine tree wood, the oak tree was considered to be unique to the Audonic settlers. Many different trinkets or special things that were created by the Audonic settlers were made of oak, signifying its value to them.

The term Chênique was coined by René Sieyes during the Augusta Assembly in 1813, which caught in very quickly during the Penobscot Trade Revolution. The cultural and societal revolution sought better integration between the Audonic settlers and the Wαpánahki.

History

Pre-Audonic History

This section will serve to explain history of the Tsalagi before the introduction of the Audonic settlers. The general area this takes place is West Chenes with potential involvement of neighbors. Alongside this is a primary focus on the expansion of Tsalagi and their existence during the expansion of Chenes.

Audonic Colonization

This section will serve to explain history of the Audonics, a brief summary of their actions before leaving Belisaria and the afterwards sailing from any of the countries from Belisaria. The general area from there will be in East Chenes, specifically on the East Coast. Much of the colonization will further go into a large center, Ville de Augusta. Afterwards, different trade outposts will be set up along the East Chenes Coast and trading posts along the Sagadahoc network of roads.

Augusta Convention & Penobscot Mercantile Revolution

This section will serve to explain the Augusta Convention and the establishment of East Chenes. The cultural divide between the Sagadahoc-Chenique and the Maskwacis becomes more and more expanded, until the Penobscot Mercantile Revolution which serves to fully unify the Chenique and Sagadahoc as a single nation.

War of Androscoggin-Étienne

This section will serve as a brief explanation of the Maskwacis attack on the Chenes border as a reaction to what they believed to be a cultural invasion that violated the Agreement of Augusta, the only treaty that the Maskwacis, Sagadahoc and Chenique agreed to sign. Eventually the Maskwacis would attend the Penobscot Convention and the Penobscot Agreement as they began to lose different tribes in their alliance. They lost those allies to the Chenique and Sagadahoc during the war, and eventually they agreed to a ceasefire and seceded control and influence over several different eastern and central Tsalagi tribes.

Golden Era of the Merle

This section will serve as an explanation of the era, the Golden Era of the Merle, alternatively the Industrial Revolution.

Asherionic Wars

This section will serve as an explanation of Chenes during the Asherionic Wars and under Asherion's control. Under Asherion's control many of the Abenaki, Creole and Chenique communities suffered from the ordinances that were placed upon them, especially the Chenique.

Reformative Era

This section will serve as an explanation of Chenes in the aftermath of the collapse of Asherion's Empire. Much of Asherion's brief conquest embittered the Chenique and Creole factions who were subject to Asherion's relocation policy on children. Much of the Reformative Era is marked by quickly entering and exiting presidents, often without an election as Chenes attempts to reform their country.

Government & Politics

Government

Chenes is a federal legislative-dependent republic. Chenes historically has invested legal power from the country's government into the legislative branch. The Augusta Assembly signed in the Senate of Merchants, the first legal legislative before its dissolvement and reorganization into the Confederated Senate. When Jacques Champlain rose to power during the Penobscot Assembly, his authoring of the 1914 Constitution federated the states and created a central government. The 1914 Constitution continued the tradition of a legislative-dependent government but gave the central government and the executive branch more power over the individual states.

Chenes is split government-wise between West Chenes and East Chenes. East Chenes is entirely bound to the 1914 Constitution of Chenes and is represented in the legislature by the General Assembly. East Chenes is bound to the national executive branch, the Executive Council and primarily consists of Chenique and Wαpánahki states. West Chenes governed by a tribal government, the Quanassee Government.

West Chenes

West Chenes is an autonomous part of Chenes that makes up one of the two large administrative divisions of Chenes. West Chenes is still considered to be governed by the 1914 Constitution, but has its own legal document that determines the full stretch of its autonomy. The 1915 Constitution of West Chenes is the full legal document that proscribes the powers of the autonomous division. West Chenes consists of the states of Quanassee, Sitigu, Talikwa, Esseneca, Chatuga, and Tuckasegee. All of these states are recognized to be ethnically and linguistically Tsalagi. West Chenes has been governed since the 1915 Constitution by the Government of Quanassee.

Administrative Division

Chenes is divided between West Chenes and East Chenes. The borders between the two were determined by the Penobscot Assembly and are governed separately. East Chenes is governed by the current government, and is subdivided by states. States do not have sovereignty but retain self-governship and are somewhat independent from the federal government. States are divided further into regions, and the subdivided into departments, which is the smallest level of local government. There are 18 different states, 12 states under the jurisdiction of East Chenes and 6 states under the jurisdiction of West Chenes.
