The Kingdom of Nainan (Nainese: 共和奈人; Cộng hòa Nài Nhân) was a sovereign country in Southeast Coius, it was the monarchy of Nainan that gained independence from Werania in 1953, it lasted during a time of economic downturn and political strife. It would be a short-lived government that would be ruled by King Thang Con and three Premiers. The government of the Kingdom of Nainan would eventually collapse in 1956 when two revolutions, the national principlist one in the north, and the socialist one in the south, would take over the country.
Founded when Werania would pull out of Southeast Coius, it would however still have Weranic influence mainly through the economy and monarchy being filled with Weranian control. The monarch Thang Con would be given many Weranian advisors to help assist with building the country. The industrial sector of the economy was dominated by the Weranians. Businessman Nguyễn Khánh An would be appointed to Premier but his term was short lived as he died in 1954 of suicide. Đào Kái Sơn would then become Premier eventually in 1954.
Dissatisfaction with the government and continuing Weranian influence lead to further chaos to bombard the country, the economy would continue to be in a poor state in Nainan and revolutionary sentiment began to grow. In 1955 the Nainan People's Solidarity and Longevity would be founded by Hoàng Viện Trai, a former military officer and professor.
In Sự Kỷ a workers strike would occur, and the military, also dissatisfied with the government, refused to put it down. This lead to an attempt by Premier Đào to purge the military of revolutionary elements, this would fail and lead to a rebellion by the military in the city of Canhdong, who joined Trai's revolution and founded the Harmonious Republic of Nainan. In Setrong a similar rebellion lead by the socialists of the Nainese Section of the Workers' International would rise up. A majority of the military's commanders joined the two rebellions and eventually the Nationalist northern army would defeat the monarchy's forces at Tài Lẽ and King Thang Con would escape to Werania.
