The Dze (Old Dze: Dzetśaqto /d͡zet͡sʼaqtɔ/), officially known as The 3rd Dze Confederation, is a medium-sized nation located in north-central Pythia with no countries bordering it, however being relatively close to Axeut, Kursibar, Kwarana, Maramuda and Xexeuara. An unknown nation in uncharted lands, it was recently unified in its totality by Tso'taan Xanaaq̇ut, the founder of the modern confederacy.
Etymology
The name in English is merely a translation of the Old Dze name, which translates to "The Dze Oath/Alliance", with the word Tśaq meaning either word.
History
The lands of the Dze Confederation have archaeological evidence of intelligent life since at least 100.000 BR, belonging to the Leaf Lance Culture, a Dze Paleolithic Culture that inhabited the mountainous central and northern regions of the country.
