The Republic of Tagamban (Quut: Dengbang Tağambang, Sagan: Taqambang Nayramdakha Uls), commonly referred to as Tagamban, is a sovereign state in the Cataisuran Steppe bordered by Kowk-Avki, Ozena and someone else. It is divided into 18 federal subjects. The capital city is Arengkolet, with a population of 1.2 million. Tagamban is the largest state in Aeia, with an area of roughly BIG square kilometres.
The modern day state of Tagamban was initially settled by the proto-Quutic peoples in the neolithic era, with the arrival of other peoples presumed to have come at the same time. However, there are very limited architectural traces from this era. The first attestations of settlement come from records of trade from ancient Yidao, as merchants traded with Quutic nomads in the Sestbang Bay in the antique era. The inhabitants of Tagamban are traditionally nomadic, which led to the formation of tribal confederations in the Tagham plain from around 500 BCE. These confederations fought among themselves for years, occasionally moving south or east in order to plunder the more sedentary states for wealth an resources. In the early thirteenth century, a tribal leader named Sulejki Qagan managed to unite many tribes under his own banner. His confederation of tribes continued to expand, conquering the vast majority of the steppe and expanding into neighbouring lands. This confederation, often called the Ontug Empire, survived the death of Sulejki but fell apart following the death in battle of his successor Qoj Qagan. Several successor states populated the lands now part of modern day Tagamban, of which the most important were the Tumtug and Borbiltug. These states modernised slowly, with nomadic and tribal elites fearing the loss of their powers. However, with the rise of the modern era new political philosophies began to spread across the steppes alongside economic modernisation. An organisation known as the Pan-Tagamban Brotherhood of Peasants and Commoners was established. In 1870, within the summer capital of the Tumtug Confederation, revolutionaries led by Ejtets Sēsataq killed the Khan and established a revolutionary government. News of their revolution soon spread, leading to new uprising and the beginning of the Tagamban Unification Wars between the Republic of Tagamban and the many monarchical states of the steppe. By 1904 the borders of the modern day state had been attained, with wars against remaining states and internal resistance lasting until the declaration of the republic in 1911. The ruling Pan-Tagamban Brotherhood began to institute reforms based upon Asuran states, hoping to establish Tagamban as a successful state. The discovery of vast oil reserves helped in this goal. By 1940, the Brotherhood deemed that Tagamban was sufficiently established as a state and opened society up as a multiparty democracy. Since then, Tagamban has stood out as a model of democratic governance in Catai.
