Huenarno

Huenarno, officially the Imperial Coalition of Huenarno, is a constitutional monarchy in west Vidina. It is one of the most populous states on the continent. It is bound by the Locufaric Ocean and the Hujixcon Sea to the west, the {Snake Spine} Mountains to the east, Onaway to the north, and {grinna nation}.

Humans first arrived in modern Huenarno about 12,500 years ago, with the Hini people, who are most closely related to the modern Jinali and Hujixcon peoples. 7,000 years ago, the Proto-Gharan people migrated from the north, displacing resident cultures. The Proto-Gharan would split into the modern Rálaho, Barna, Vineari, and Diné peoples. Agriculture is dated to around 3,000 years ago in the Huenarnoan River Valley, based mostly on maize, beans, and gourds. domestic ujox were brought down from the Jinali people in the {Snake Spine} mountains, and ground sloth made their way from the east coast.

In 1525, the Huenarnoan Import Company was founded. Over the course of the 16th century, the company would establish control over modern Huenarno through conquest and diplomacy. In 1637, following a series of financial setbacks, the company would be bought by the Salian government. In 1941, following mounting tensions, the Horgani Pact, lead by Rálahoan Emperor Mainri Higari, declares the independence of the Imperial Coalition of Huenarno. It would take 6 years of fighting before their independence was recognized by the Salians, ending the War for Independence.

Etymology
Huenarno gets its name from the Huenarno River in the Rálaho heartland, meaning XXXX. The name was used by the Salian-owned Huenarnoan Import Company for the territory under its charter, which ecompassed most of the land area the modern nation occupies today. Previously, there was no common name in native languages for the region, and was seen as an arbitrary organization by many. It wasn't until the early 20th century that an idea of a Pan-Huenarnoan identity began to take form, and with it the use of "Huenarno" in a non-colonial context. In particular, Mainri Higari would advocate for the use of name in his famous essay Dragonflies in the Sky: On Huenarno and National Identity.
