Kasia, officially the Confederated Provinces of Kasia, is a socialist nation in the south of the Belkan continent on the South Ancora Sea. It has a population of 169,296,251 with over five provinces, with the majority of people living in the Hiran and Mulan provinces.

== Etymology ==
Kasia is named after the first President Kases the Great who reigned from approx. August, 604 CE and November, 632 CE. Kases is accredited with the creation of the First Republic, and is considered the forerunner of democracy and peoples' power in South Belka.

== History ==

=== Ancient History ===
Kasia, and all of southern Belka has been populated since roughly 10,000 BCE by humans. It was populated for many years by disunified and independent city-states. There is evidence of near constant conflict and strife within Kasian lands, especially between 3,000 and 1,000 BCE when a major drought made any form of agriculture unsustainable. First semblances of larger, unified governments appear in the late to mid 7th century BCE. The first government with enough lasting writings to gather sufficient knowledge on sprung up in early summer of 604 BCE, the Kakan Empire. The Kakan Empire rose to prominence under King Kakas the Wise who pioneered military strategy, agricultural technology, and scientific doctrine. The Kakan empire went on to conquer much of the mountainous regions of present day Mulas. At this same time, the Taikos

=== The Tyri Wars ===




was a democratic and prosperous nation holding control over many of the southern islands and coasts of Belka, and was united under the leadership of President Kases the Great.

=== Colonial Era ===
Records from Treunesian colonial offices first mention a landmass matching Belka in July of 1311. Reportedly, a Treunesian vessel wrecked on a southern island of Belka and was beset upon by native peoples. In August of that year, the Treunesian Crown sent a colonising army and fleet to seize the lands they dubbed ''Belka Ülkesi''. The Treunesian Mandate of South Belka was officially established on 17 December, 1314, ending what is called the ''Era of the First Republic''. Treun kept a loose grip on the Mandate, keeping a small colonial government present to extract resources, ship out slaves, keep order, and most importantly, defend the Treunesian claim to Belka. As the Treunesian Empire declined, conditions became more dire in the mandate, sparking resentment, and eventually revolution in the native population. Kasians rose against the colonists and eventually capitulated the colonial administration at Kötüokyanusa on 9 October, 1702.

=== The Second Republic ===
The Second Republic was proclaimed immediately upon victory over the Treunesian Empire, and a government was established in Kötüokyanusa, renamed to Marites. Under the new Republic of Kasia, immediate reconstruction and modernisation efforts were undertaken. While the first rounds of revamping were harsh: seeing famine, riots, atrocities, and general failure; by the late 1720s, quality of life in Kasia began to improve. The first President of Kasia, President Fridericus Publicus Sospes, died in May of 1732, leading to the end of much of the government subsidies and public works that he had started. Subsequent Presidents became more libertarian and conservative in their ways, leading to the decline of Kasian standards of living in favour of the military and private entities. A coup attempt by President Nicodemus Rex, supported by much of the Kasian Regular Service and the North Belkan Frontier Company led to a massive swing to the radical left in politics. President Henricus Sospes, a descendant of Fridericus asscended to the Office of the Presidency on 9 October, 1841 in one of the most landslide victories in Kasian history. He implemented many of the same policies that President F.P. Sospes started before him. A string of left wing, populist administrations proceeded President H. Sospes, which made Kasia one of the worlds' most developed and free nations.

=== The First Kasian Civil War ===
On 6 June, 1921, General Euclio Rex and Vice President Flavius Polydeuces declared President Modestus Publicus Nepos to be "an illegitimate servitor to the Office of the President and a bastardisation of the national pride of Kasia" and members of the Kasian Republican Military seized the capitol building, deposing President Nepos. This sudden and illegal taking of power led to the fracturing of both the military and populace. Libertarians, patricians, and generals joined the General faction, supporting the military coup, while the majority of the rank and file of the military and the lower class of the populace supported the Presidential faction. This division led to demonstrations in the streets, which led to riots, which eventually escalated into a civil war between the Kasian Junta and Kasian Republic. It saw the deaths of nearly five million people, almost 10% of the population of Kasia at the time. While in the beginning, the Republic seemed to have the upper hand with a much higher support, the Junta turned more and more members of the Republican Army to their aid. At the Battle of Marites, General Rex led a force of over 100,000 soldiers and 50 naval vessels to lay siege to the city. During the siege and artillery bombardment, President Nepos was killed by shrapnel and the Republican lines collapsed, leading to the fall of Marites. Just 43 days after the Republican defeat at Marites, on 14 September, 1929, the Republic of Kasia surrendered, and the Kasian Military Junta took power.

=== The Junta ===
On the day that the Republic of Kasia surrendered, General Rex and Vice President Rex gave a speech to the masses at Hircule. At the end of the speech, General Rex produced a handgun from his coat and shot Polydeuces in the stomach three times, killing him instantly. Rex then declared himself to be ''Dominus Supremo'' and ended his speech with "the Republic is dead, long live the Republic!" Rex undertook a massive sacking and execution of nearly the entire former government and military, killing all those who he saw as a threat to his supremacy or who were disloyal to his authority. Inexperienced and zealous generals filled the ranks of military, discipline was lax. During what are called the ''Triumphos Insanire,'' members of the military and executive ravaged through the countryside and cities of Kasia; pillaging, raping, burning, and killing all in their path. Heads of innocent men, women, and children were placed upon pikes in the new capital of ''Orbis Rex Maximus'', statues of old Presidents and freedom fighters were crucified, and portraits of former heroes were burned. The years of the Junta are known as some of the most harshly oppressive years in Kasia, and saw the deaths of nearly 5 million, only further destroying the economic capacities of Kasia.

=== The Second Kasian Civil War ===
Under the leadership of underground revolutionary Hugonis Praecipio Manus, an assassination of Dominus Rex was undertaken during one of his military parades. Improvised explosives detonated throughout the streets of the capital, killing Rex and much of his military escort. This sparked harsh reprisals from the military, now under the control of Euclio Rex's son, Virile Rex, now Dominus Rex II. These reprisals were met by backlash, eventually evolving into mass revolt, then revolution. The Junta's Military pursued a scorched earth policy, and razing cities to the ground, deploying chemical and biological weapons, and starting floods and wildfires to delay and deny the revolutionaries. Eventually, soldiers of the Exercitus Rerum Roje reached ''Castra Trabeata'' and before Rex II could evacuate the fort, rocket artillery and aerial explosives razed the fortification to the ground, killing Rex and his legions. The body of Rex was never recovered, and the ruins of the fort were ground, incinerated, and buried under the headquarters of the revolution, Hircule.

=== Post-Civil War and the New Provinces ===
After the defeat of the Junta, Hugonis was proclaimed the First President of the New Republic. Hugonis led the reconstruction and rehabilitation effort in Kasia. He implemented heavy handed and wide reaching reforms, forming the governmental structure, industrialising the nation, and executing five year plans for the nation. These efforts were generally successful; many of the historical cities such as Marites, Brona, and Uras were rebuild, the GDP of the nation increased sharply as the poverty rate decreased, and in general, life in Kasia improved. However, despite his massive successes and popularity, President Manus suddenly died on 4 April, 1975 while hiking through the Mulan Ranges; he left a motion for the dissolution of the Kasian Union Front in his will. The motion was brought to parliament, which voted in a slim majority to dissolve the Front. The nation was divided among the 5 provinces of Hira, Mulas, Ullum, Isen, and Altum. While the provinces went it alone for a few years, the Kasian Cooperation Pact was signed and ratified by all provinces on 11 September, 1979, removing many of the barriers to free trade, free movement, and free cooperation between the provinces. The Kasian Union acted as both a political union and as a proto-confederacy for years until eventually in 8 February, 1984 the Kasian Unification Treaty was unilaterally ratified by the Union parliament, and all national parliaments, Kasia once again united.

=== Contemporary History ===
Under stipulations of the treaty, a constitution must be unilaterally and unanimously supported by all constituent nations. The first step in this unification was creating a skeleton government, which was swiftly done, and President Agorastocles Ell Apellinus was elected along with Premier Abelus Constantius. A slow process of integrating the provincial governments began, and powers were slowly integrated to the united government by various treaties, local laws, and directives. While the central government had high administrative power and was ''de facto'' the primary governance of the united provinces; ''de jure'', the constituent nations were almost completely independent. However, eventually a constitution came forward that was signed and ratified by the parliaments of the 5 provinces. Under this constitution, the Confederated Provinces of Kasia were born, named after the legendary first President of the Republic who united much of Southern Balka under one state. Since this constitution, few modifications to the functionality of the government were made, with no amendments being made to the constitution since 2000.
