[b]Kyras[/b], officially the [b]Kyrasi Commonwealth[/b], also referred to by its previous name [b]Qpebanda[/b], is a country in northern Usnistan, met by the humid waters of the South Menotius Sea to the northeast, which flow into the Degeweng River, the bastion of Kyrasi civilisation, whose basin maintains over three-quarters of the Commonwealth's entire population of [b]41 million[/b]. It hosts the nation's most advanced cities and metropolitan areas, the most remarkable and modern of them being [b]Jisdunju[/b], the capital city, which also has the title of the most populous, with 4.9 million people and is the second-oldest, existing for three millennia and a half. Other notable cities include Saint Stephen, Kumsa, Filindi, and Tanyawe. The country is bordered by Narzhan and Hishmar by the east, Dancia by the west, Lauriya to the south, alongside the enclave of Hishmar on the Lakala Gulf.
By 401 BC, the Aradeshi Empire had split into north and south. Over the following centuries, the Lafaris had migrated to the region, plundering the Aradeshi Empire, and had formed nine kingdoms by the 1st century BC, a period known as the Nonarchy. In 652 AD, the Sahahadin Caliphate invaded, and the region was divided into the provinces of East and West Levantin. West Levantin gained independence in 661, but was attacked by King Ninjisid of Roher. Levantin warrior Tetes the Great defeated him and established the Sultanate of Kyras. Later, Kyras faced decline after losing control of the Sultanate of Taujilyabar, and the region fragmented into smaller kingdoms, eventually falling under Anglostian control by 1807. After revolutions and unrest, the Commonwealth was formed in 1981, leading to a golden age. Kyras later became a major copper exporter during a boom from 1998 to 2004.
The Commonwealth is a unitary semi-presidential representative democratic republic, with a president, prime minister, and cabinet responsible for the state's legislature. The economy is crucial to the country, generating income from various sources including services, mining, manufacturing, agriculture, basket weaving, and trout fishing. The Commonwealth ranks highly globally for culture, quality of life, health, safety, education, economic freedom, civil liberties, freedom from taxation, and political rights. The Commonwealth has a well-developed market economy and one of the highest per capita incomes globally. It has reasonably high military expenditures and arms manufacturing. The country ranks high in religiousness due to a no-state religion policy, allowing people to worship freely and how they want. Islam is the largest religion by a small margin, originating from the Lafari and eventually spreading throughout the region, while Christianity was brought by the Angolstians and is condensed along the northern coasts.

Etymology
Kyras
The name Kyras can be traced back to the Lafaric migrations, who brought in their language, culture and customs. They named their newly found land, كثيرغرسة (Kaṯir-ġarsa), from the words كثير (kaṯir) meaning 'many', and غرسة (ġarsa) meaning 'trees' or 'plants' referring to the region's abundance of vegetation from the Yind River basin. It was used by the various ethnic groups and peoples that came to settle in the area as their different languages could not agree on one. As part of the Aradeshi Empire, it was known de jure as Jimbo la Kairasa meaning 'province of Kyras', even though it was known in Aradeshi as Jakijan, from nchi ya kijani meaning 'green lands', which is still used by rural populations in the southern deserts. Kyras was referred to until Anglostian colonisation and was reinstated as the country's official name in 1966 after the deposition of the PON and the First Republic's establishment. The Kyrasi variant of the name is كيراس (Kiras).
