The Socialist Republic of Murmusa (Narendian: Социјалистичка Република Мурмуса) is a one party state located on the Murmus Plateau in Northwestern Meridon, and a Narendian ethnic exclave, and with heavily restricted migration to and from the nation, largely imposed by its neighbor Göke. The Murmusan state, since the end of the 1978-1982 Gökan invasion, and the 1983 Coup of the Triumvirs, the Murmusan state has become increasingly authoritarian in nature; with the state authorities intensely marshaling resources for the defense of Murmusa from invasion.

Humans would arrive on the plateau of Murmus shortly after the arrival of modern humans to the Gökan Plateau, roughly 9,800 years ago, primarily as nomadic herders in transit through the plateau to other, more evidently areas. No permanent settlements would exist on the plateau until the mid-900s when proto-Narendian prospectors began to form small mining towns on the mineral rich Murmus plateau. These towns were initially small, with limited access to food being a significant factor in slowing their growth and spread. However, by the 1300s, settlements became more widespread as miners encountered a massive underground aquifer;

Etymology

The term Murmusa is a permutation of a term used in ancient Kumurz to describe the plateau that is the defining geographic feature of the nation, the term Mumus meant high plain in the langauge; but was itterated into Murmus over time and contact with Proto-Narendians; with the term Murmusa (literally land of the high plain) being coined by Narendian ethnonationalists in Murmusa in the mid 19th century. The demonym for citizens of Murmusa is Murmusan or Murmusans.
