Mahana (Mahanan: महान or Mahāna|IPA: mæhˈɑːnə (http://ipa-reader.xyz/?text=m%C3%A6h%CB%88%C9%91%CB%90n%C9%99&voice=Joey listen), officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Mahana is a country in Europa, more specifically the sub-continent of Orient, which consists of 29 million people. The capital city is Jutpandi but other large cities include Ghobari, Battagara and Veydu. The most notable feature of Mahana is the Samripe Mountain Range, one of the largest on Eurth, and specifically Mount Monjara, standing at 7,963m tall. The most followed religion in Gaism, a religion centred around the worship of the bovine God of Kuladara. Mahana is made up of a huge amount of differing ethnic peoples, including the Sheshtri, Gaimreti and the Mais. The name 'Mahana' literally translates to 'Great' in the native language.

Mahana, despite historically being isolationist, currently have positive relations with a majority of Eurths countries. The nation has been a democracy since the Mahanan Civil War of the early 1990s, which overthrew the Monarchy in Mahana. The current Prime-Minister is Ranju Bastola and President is Bina Sharma. The current Queen is Sharma II, however the title is more of a 'show title' in present day.

Etymology

The term 'Mahana' first appeared upon initial unification in the 13th century, during the Sapkota Dynasty. In Old Mahanan (पुरानो महन्त लिपि) the word is thought to originally have meant 'Land of the Great Kings'. However the legitimacy of this claim is questioned and the true origins of the name are unknown, thought to be by some to originate from the Ancient Oharic language.

Geography

The most notable feature of Mahana is the Samripe Mountain Range, one of the largest on Eurth, and specifically Mount Monjara, standing at 7,963m tall.

(WIP. The majority of the nation's population live behind the Samripe Mountain range. This includes all the major ethnic groups. The 'lowland' ethnic groups would be the first ones to have interaction with other countries, as they are located by the sea. I haven't figured out when the lowland peoples arrived or where they came from yet, but I do know that they are ethnically quite different from the mountainous groups.)

Biodiversity

Mahana is hugely biodiverse nation, with the country often put into three sub-categories; the 'Plateau', which is the Careleon Plateau, the 'Highlands', which is the Samripe Mountain Range and the 'Lowlands' which make up the south-western part of the nation.

History

Ancient Mahana

  • Prehistory — (WIP. Inspiration can be found in this reference of Meluhha. This could also be the coastal area southeast of you. Several nearby places all begin with the letter "M": Miiros, Mekabiri, Mahana, Mantella.)
  • 100s BCE — (WIP. Integration with the Pearl Road trade network.)
  • (WIP. Figure out a shared heritage with the neighbouring countries.)

Medieval Mahana

  • 1000s — Mahana was established officially in the 11th century as Emperor Chamrel lead the ancient Khad peoples down the Ghobari valley and into the area of modern day Jutpandi. These early peoples were believed to have been the first to practise Gaism in the region, as well as founding the ancient city of Vaddkewatta, which is situated in modern Jutpandi.
  • 1100s — These people were led by the Chamrel Dynasty until the late 12th century, when they were deposed following the Mahanan Civil War, putting the Sapkota Dynasty into power.
  • 1200s — It was in the 13th century when they doubled the amount of land they occupied, roughly to the modern borders, under the Sapkota Dynasty and notably Emperor Guragai.
  • 1280s — It was in the very late 13th century in which Emperor Rabi introduced the caste system to Mahana. Mahana's downfall was upon the death of Emperor Jhapali, his three sons disagreed on land inheritance, resulting in the land being split into three.
  • 1350s — (WIP. Expect some coastal raids during the Orinese colonial period. This would work well with the downfall you described above. A period of internal instability would help explain an external threat.)

Mahanan Unification

  • 1700s — Mahana remained in this way until it was united in the 18th century by a man named Balraj Singh who lead one of the three ununified states, Jalanpathur.
  • 1875-1900 — The current borders of the nation were drawn up in the late 1800s, and have remained stable since.

Contemporary Mahana

  • 1900s — In the early 1900s, a man named Sudip Subba managed to successfully take power, forcing the monarch to become a secondary power and announcing himself as supreme leader or Subban. Afterward, the kings of Mahana were only figureheads and the Subban held the real power.
  • 1943 — However, in the year 1943, the Gayin (Head of the Gaism religion) stated that the Subban was not the rightful leader of Mahana at any given time, restoring power back to the king, with the Subban position fading following this.
  • 1992 — The Mahanan Civil War of the early 1990s removed all power from the Monarch, with the role only being a 'show title'. Establishment of the current Federal Democratic Republic of Mahana.
  • 2021 — Today, Mahana remains a poor country, with most working in farming. However, Mahana is seen to have great tourist potential, with 26 million visitors in 2020. They are exporters of materials such as plastics and soft metals, as well as tea and other goods.

Economy

Main article: Economy of Mahana

Mahana's GDP (Gross Domestic Product) for 2021 was $36.084 billion with an annual growth rate calculated at 4.9% in 2021, which is expected to rise to 6.5% by 2025. Mahana could be considered to be one of the fastest growing economies in Europa, however with one of the lowest GDP nominal per capita.

The Worker Force in Mahana.

The 17.9-million-worker Mahanan Worker Force is one of the largest on Eurth. Primary work sectors make up to 34.2% of GDP, the secondary 14.3% and the tertiary 51.5%. Major agricultural products include tobacco, potato, oilseed, jute, cereal (barley, maize, millet, paddy and wheat) and milk. Major industries include tourism, cigarettes, textiles, cementing, rice, sugar and bricks. Mahana's international trade expanded greatly in the 1990s as a complete democratic system was restored. Mahana's economy was ruined in the 1990s following the Mahanan Civil War. Major exports of Mahana include leather, carpet, medicinal herbs and paper product. Major imports of Mahana include machinery, raw materials, plastic, tea, electrical and electronic devices, gold and semi-finished goods.

Two-thirds of the Mahanan workforce is employed in agriculture

In recent years Mahana has made great progress in poverty reduction as well as reducing the gap in development. In 2010 Mahana was below the International Poverty Line (AIA$1.90 per person per day) from 17.3% to just 9.9% in 2019, however vulnerability still remains high as almost 34% of the population living on between $1.90 and $3.45 per day. However, Mahana has made great improvements to sectors such as infant mortality, nutrition, electricity and access to internet. On the current trajectory, Mahana is set to eliminate poverty within the next 35 years. Mahana's agricultural sector comes under great risk as during the months June-September the Narope Rains cause floods in the lowland regions, which Mahana relies on for a lot of the farming. As of 2014, Agriculture employs 76% of the workforce, services 18%, and manufacturing and craft-based industry 6%.

Besides being almost landlocked, rugged and harsh geography, poor infrastructure, ethnic tension and lack of natural resources as well as long lasting civil war tensions, the post-1990 government has done a good job stabilising the country.
