Sukonde, officially known as the Asase Republic of Tumitwefo Sukonde, is a Social Republic in Southern Ashizwe, constituting the Sukonde mainland, Aladwa Peninsula and N'onu Mmiri islands. The volcanically rugged and mountainous country has a population of 46 million, covering an area of 357,000 sq km. The small country is considered both ecologically and ethnically diverse, comprised of four main ethnic groups within its borders. There are six different regional languages and the one unifying lingua franca of Asundiro.
Sukonde was inhabited by ancient mountain swelling communities, known as the Ugwu for millenia. These confederated communities flourished until the arrival of the Asundiro, who were in flight after their ancient homeland had been annexed the Tsarkari. The Asundiro, which named the land Sukonde, settled city-states along the coast from their island strongholds, then spread after consolidating inland trade, forming the Empire of the Golden Stool. The industrious Empire’s reign would swiftly end when the agrarian Ugwu and poorer city-dwelling Asundiro would revolt(Tumitwefo Revolution), overthrow the Golden Stool and establish a Social Republic. The Social Republic went through three notable era’s. The Era of Oppression, Civil War and the Ikemo Reprisal. The Reprisal was a period of large reformation within the country, democratizing the government and decentralizing the planned economy.
The Republic is considered a one-party socialist state, upholding a constitution based on the Sukondan socialist ideology of Asase. The economy is ruled democratically by clans of workers, Nhyiamu, administered by local-state managers through a decentralized planned structure. The federal government is ruled by a select council; elected by the Fekuo, the national assembly. The Fekuopanin - lit. Leader of the Fekuo - or President is the Head of State, and the High Councilor is Head of Government.
