Yuchvan

Yuchvan (Tenkogul: Yuchvan, ᠶᠦᠱᠤᠠᠨ; pronounced: //, officially the United Communities of Yuchvan (in Tenkogul: u'Yuchvani Samen Hayê, ᠦ'ᠶᠦᠱᠤᠠᠨ ᠰᠠᠮᠡ ᠬᠠᠶᠧ; pronounced: /ʊ jʊxvæn sæme hajɪ/) is a country located in insular Osamia, being the largest in the world in terms of number of islands, comprising a total of 14,309 of them. It has no land borders with any country, and is separated from Takjaana by the strait to the west. The country is a, with the  and president being elected by secret . Its  is Asuê, which is also its largest city with more than 3 million inhabitants. It is the tenth and second largest economy in the world in terms of.

Yuchvan has an area of 1,308,703 square kilometers, making it the tenth largest country in the world. With its territory being located between the temperate zone and the polar circle, Yuchvan has cold climates with harsh winters. Its territory is geologically unstable, as it is located in a region of convergence of tectonic plates, which causes, in addition to earthquakes, the occurrence of volcanoes, with more than 100 active.

Yuchvan's history has been influenced by foreign peoples since the emergence of its first cities. In the Middle Ages, most of the western islands were colonized or transformed into vassal states. In the 17th century, Salia began a process of colonization of Yuchvan, which remained in that state until 1960, with the end of the War of Independence. Yuchvan's culture and religion absorbed a lot from the neighboring peoples of Osamia.

With 35.6 million inhabitants, it is the second most populous nation on the continent, and the tenth in the world. Its inhabitants are separated into several ethnic groups, among which the Sarani, Tugatchek and Jugari stand out. There is also great linguistic diversity, with more than 16 languages and dialects being spoken in the country, the most important being the Tenkogul language and the Sarani language, spoken together by 80% of the population.

Etymology
Yuchvan comes from Daklamitsi, an extinct language spoken by the Ancient Togasu civilization, and which based today's Tenkogul as well as other languages. Yuchvan comes from Yuch (sea) and van (people), thus meaning "people of the sea". This term also referred to seafaring civilizations throughout Osamia, assuming a regional character only in the 15th century, when the state of Tchugal Qulkat used the term for the first time to refer to its sphere of influence.

The Sarani and Tihikti languages ​​use Wotangaran and Tunkele, which mean respectively "Eastern Nation" and "Our Kingdom". Wotangaran was also the name of an expansionist project of the Saranite civilizations. During the Keigai era of Saranite rule, immediately before Gemurtrak's conquests of the western islands, Wotangaran was the official name of the empire that comprised almost all of modern Yuchvan. "Tunkele" appeared around the same time, adopted when the Wahatang were conquered by Wotangaran.

Pre-history
Yuchvan was one of the last territories to receive human occupation, since its colonization took place around the end of the. about 15-20 thousand years ago. As the Yuchvan Islands were connected by land strips or, occupation of the main islands was relatively quick after the arrival of the first homo-sapiens on Tatsumori. The prehistoric peoples of Yuchvan divided into two large groups: fishermen and hunters. Hunters inhabited the interior of larger islands such as Saran, Togasû and Bayktaar, and as the name implies, they lived by. They fed on game meat from small animals, fish, molluscs and fruits. Their records are greater in caves, in which they recorded daily life, hunting, dancing and wars with other groups in paintings. Fishing peoples were less, as they settled at fixed points on the coast. Their food base is basically made up of seafood, and the piles of shellfish shells consumed by them are one of the main vestiges of these men.

Around 3000 years BCE, the first signs of {[wp|agriculture}} emerged, with the domestication of wheat native to the Far Isles in Manyka. But in the south, in Saran, Togasû and Bayktar, tubers and barley were also cultivated around the same period. Agriculture coincided with the increase in the size of communities, which became villages of underground houses or houses made of wood and baked brick. It is estimated that at this time the first major Yuchvan war took place, due to the many records of fighting in Saran Central. A few centuries after the emergence of agriculture, there was an improvement in shipbuilding techniques, which meant the intensification of territorial occupation through the colonization of other islands and also the exchange between cultures.

Ancient Era
Around 2,000 BC, communities of up to 600 men gave way to cities with high walls, and with that, the organization of society also changed. Previously, there was an equal division of labor and earnings, and land was considered uktar (of all), but later, some families concentrated the best land, and controlled trade, achieving a higher status. It was the beginning of the era of the Clans, in which a family owned land where their servants worked, and obtained products that were traded with other cities by sea. Some families from certain cities united, forming the first.

The first great city of Yuchvan was built by the Niq people, and it was called Wodung. Wodung was made up of two rings. It was mostly made of wood with fired bricks and clay. All their houses had ovens and fireplaces, and some were devoted to mining and. It had 124 houses, 32 within the inner ring and 92 in the outer ring. All Faced An Inner Circular Street, The Scene of Religious Rituals. It also had drained sewage and irrigation channels and ditches for the arable fields located outside. Close to the sea in what is now the Manyka region, Wodung sold metal items to neighboring towns, which helped to consolidate his power in the region. It became the center of Niq's Thalassocracy. The Niq peoples had great contact with the civilizations of the south, even establishing merchant cities in the north of Saran, Baykhatut and Togasû. They were the first to adopt, and had a wide command of metals and shipbuilding. Their cities had imposing temples, many pyramids and many hanging gardens in commercial and government buildings.

Yuchvan was composed, at that time, by four main : the Soukh, or peoples of the center, who inhabited the region of the central islands and eastern Saran, the Sung, who inhabited the western islands, the Nikh, who inhabited the northern islands and colonies scattered across central Yuchvan, and the Bayktarians, who inhabited the icy lands of Bayktar and other southern islands. Of these, the Soukh and Nikh were the only non-hunters and gatherers, and the Nikh established a great naval empire that stood out among the rest.

The first empires
Nikh's supremacy culminated in invasions to the south, in 400 BCE, led by Wabatanga Arms of a Bear, which led to the establishment of several trading posts and occupation colonies (due to the search for arable land) in Bayktar, Togasû and Saran, which became the confrontation with native peoples is inevitable. The invasions to the south lasted more than a century, and caused violent clashes by Sukhs and Nikhs, which ended in several cities being liquidated by the invaders. Thanks to this event, the Succhos were forced to migrate to the eastern and most western lands, inhabited respectively by Sungs and Bayktarians. This caused miscegenation and conflicts between these peoples. In Togasû, occupied by the Nikhs, the Sukhs obtained a lower social status and many were enslaved.

The low number of shipwrecks dating back to the 3rd century BCE (which indicates a decline in trade) and some written records indicate that the Niq thalassocracy went into decline around that time. The causes were likely corruption, misunderstandings among central clan families, aspirations of regional elites, and revolts by oppressed classes such as slaves and Sukh serfs. It is known that the Nikh Empire went through a phase of centralization of power in a few families, which was not always accepted by local elites. In the 3rd century BCE, a violent war between the senatorial forces and the royalist forces was fought, won by the royalists. This was not accepted in the territories outside the central island, leading to the fragmentation of the Empire. The successor states, in turn, had a reduced size and did not have great military power. On the other side, the oppressed classes, such as the slaves and the Sukhs, managed to muster more strength to overthrow the Nikh families that ruled their territories. It was the so-called spring of the people of the south. Such a spring had Hulkpaat Tuq as the main leader, organizing an army to overthrow the Nikh states and create a new state in Togasû. After spring, the Tuq dynasty was established and became the most powerful empire of the Yuchvanese civilizations.

The Tuq Dynasty, under the command of the Hulkpaat family, adopted the Nikh writing system, replaced the clan militias with a regular army and navy, and abolished all forms of slavery (even freeing Nikh slaves obtained in the war of liberation). Hulkpaat also used the traditional religion of the Sukhs, elements of Nikh beliefs, and texts taken from revelation (by the goddess Providence) to establish a new religion that had the emperor as a demigod. Hulkpaat and his sons, according to priestly records, received several revelations from the goddess Providence (Imiq) who said that the Tuq Dynasty would be destined to free all peoples from the domains of the Niq state. Thus, the Tuq Dynasty justified its naval supremacy and expansionism, from the invasion of Niq port colonies in Saran and Bayktar, from the first century of the common era.

The invasions involved the conquest not only of successor Nikh kingdoms, but also of other independent Sukh states, established on the island of Saran. Raids also took place on the island of Bayktar, leading to the establishment of important port colonies which today correspond to Nikithuaaq and Ununavat. Such colonies grew to the point of influencing the local peoples and meant the conquest of the island of Bayktar. The conquest of Saran, in turn, was not so simple, since the states located there had robust military forces. This conquest took place slowly, and it is known that the Tuq Dynasty stopped expanding after a serious defeat in the capital of Tanhothèt Dunganate, a state located in Saran Central, in the year 126

After the defeat at Tanhothèt, the Tuq Dynasty experienced a period of relative peace and prosperity, with the growth of naval trade and advances in technology. The country had an efficient tax system  and treated the conquered peoples well, not trying to restrict their translations and languages, which ensured a certain stability. However, Tuq also suffered from one of the evils of the Nikh Empire: the strengthening of local elites. Over time, the Tuq Dynasty came to be governed more by the "naval lords" through the Council of State than by the dynasty itself. Disagreements between these elites led to two major civil wars, one in 282 CE and the other in 314 CE, which marked the end of the period of stability in the Dynasty. The name of the country was changed, in this last civil war, to the Malmut Dynasty, after the victory of the naval lords who supported Akpaltud Malmut. The Malmut Dynasty wanted to consolidate its power, and to do this it invaded the remaining Nikh states on the islands of Manyka, Mahuika and Silikuaq, making them tributary states. The weak Aruat Confederation in the south was also annexed to the dynasty.

The expansionism of the Malmuts was frowned upon by the Sarani states, such as Tanhothèt Dunganate himself in Saran Central, who secured the alliance of other Sarani and Nikh state kingdoms and cities with the aim of destroying the Malmut empire. Thus began the Cold Wars, which began in 362 CE and ended only in 412 CE, with the defeat of the Malmut Dynasty and the partition of that empire in two: the State of Niktvut, headquartered in Vatakakûq, which controlled the south of the empire, but was loyal to Tanhothèt, and the Northern Territories, which comprised the eastern part of Saran and the northern part of Togasû. These territories were incorporated into Tanhothèt and its allies. The Nikh gained autonomy in the northern islands, but the attempt to form a unified Nikh state was barred by the Sarani. Tanhothèt thus became the center of ancient Yuchvan, and gained the apathy of other Sarani states that were unhappy with that state's hegemony, expressed through the League of Saran, a coalition created to defeat the Malmuts. Tanhothèt had to fight against the states of Tatsumori and Thapulphèt, and was victorious, unifying the entire present region of the Western Isles under the Empire of Tanhothèt.

Middle Ages
The Tanhothèt Dunganate also fought, in 446 CE, the so-called War of the Trade Lords, who tried to overthrow the Niktvut government to establish a government free from Thapulphèt's influence so that local merchants would benefit. This war was won by Tanhothèt, who once again incorporated the eastern territories. The incorporation, however, was costly, as several revolts broke out, but all were smothered by the government. Unlike its predecessor states, Tanhothèt was largely centralized in the capital, with the regions being administered by the emperor's highly trusted generals. The country was successful in fighting popular revolts and local elites, at least until the 8th century. The increase in trade with the countries of the Southern Empire generated a significant cultural exchange and a large accumulation of capital for the country. However, this ended when a volcanic eruption in 689 caused the region's average temperature to drop to the point of interfering with the harvest, leading to a low food supply and widespread inflation.

The chaos caused by this natural disaster moved popular sectors and merchants against the central government. A great revolt took place in the eastern region, the so-called restorer revolt, that same year. These rebels aimed to restore the Tuq state. Tanhothèt had to fight on two fronts, because when he dislocated thousands of men and raised taxes to fight the revolt in the East, he aroused the dissatisfaction of the West, which also generated revolts. The rebellion in the east was successful, with the Empire giving up fighting it, and focusing on solving the problems of the western region. However, there too the situation was unfavorable, with the Tanhothèt dynasty being overthrown. There was no consensus on who would succeed that government, and chaos was reinstated with a civil war. This marks the beginning of the Yuchvan Feudal Era, when power was largely fragmented in the hands of naval lords and landowners.

The weakening of the Yuchvanese states at that time was essential in facilitating raids from the Southern Empire, which began around that time. Initially, only a few islands were conquered and port colonies established. But due to the immense power of that empire, which far surpassed the small states of the Isle of Saran, these villages soon expanded. This expansion took place in two forms: passive, in which feudal lords agreed to be vassals of the Southern Empire in exchange for protection, and active, in which the colonies of the Southern Empire generated conflicts with the natives. The rule of the Southern Empire was consolidated between the 8th and 11th centuries, when the majority of Yuchvan's territory was already completely under the domain of that state, either through incorporation itself, or by vassal/tributary states established in the region. The rule of the Southern Empire brought social stability to the Yuchvan territories, and was a period of important cultural exchanges that took place between the various peoples of that empire, which helped to form the national identity of Yuchvan.

From the territory of Yuchvan, the northwestern and northeastern parts of Saran and Siliquaq were under the direct control of monarchies from the mainland empire, as these were the first areas to be incorporated into the Southern Empire, through the first waves of invasions. Meanwhile, the rest of Saran and the island of Togasû became federated entities of the empire, but with their own governments, as they accepted allegiance to the Southern Empire for defensive purposes. Other areas of Yuchvan, such as Bayktar, remained independent, although their leaders were under the empire's sphere of influence. The Aruat Confederation was the only region in Yuchvan that remained independent, but its population was small. Under the rule of the southern empire, culture was heavily influenced, and religion too. Religious elements of the cultures of the continental empire were embraced by the Yuchi, which resulted in a syncretism that bases the religious belief of the country's population today. Trade intensified, with a dynamic intra- and extra-empire market being articulated, which made possible the prosperity of several port cities.

End of Southern Empire
[...]

After the end of the Southern Empire, Yuchvan was divided into X states: Yp-Senghá, northwest of Saran, Osai, northeast of Saran, Saran, with most of the rest of the homonymous island, and the islands of Tatsumori and Chuonkikta, and Yugai, which held virtually all the rest of Yuchvan, making it the largest and most powerful empire. Some islands and port areas were also considered "unowned" because they were associated with pirates. Piracy grew a lot with the end of the Southern Empire, and the pirates were former corsairs who were in the service of the pro-independence lords during the dissolution of that empire. By 1478, most piracy was concentrated in a single group: the Naval State. This group owned some Yuchvan islands and colonies on the [unnamed continent], where sugar cane, tobacco, and opium were produced, which together with the plundering of ships from the region formed the bulk of that organization's profits. The Naval State operated from Osamia to Alutra, sinking and plundering enemy ships. In the Yuchvan seas, they controlled a third of all trade, and their naval power was second only to the state of Yugai. Because of agreements, the State Naval rarely attacked the Yugai, which often used State Naval pirates as corsairs against Saran traders.

Salian colonization
In 1607, the Naval State was at its best, controlling several islands and ports in the Yuchvan archipelago and in -, where, , , and  were produced and trafficked. As Salia's presence increased, conflicts between the Naval State and that country began to appear. The Naval State went into decline around 1647 with the death of the legendary Nori Sacchi, and progressively, its ports came under the control of Salia, marking the beginning of colonization. In 1652, the emperor of Yugai, Sun-de III Tchahamasetk declared himself the legitimate successor to the throne of Saran, starting a three-sided war (Sun-de against his nephew, who claimed the throne, and both against the republicans, who wanted to remove Saran from the influence of Yugai). The war was costly for both sides, who also suffered from eruptions, tsunamis and peasant revolts. Yugai won and conquered the island of Saran with Salia's assistance, but the Empire was left unstable, poor and indebted to Salia. The descendants of Sun-de III progressively yielded to the wishes of the colonial power, giving commercial advantages, and even ceding several port areas.

Foreign influence displeased some members of the nobility, who together with disaffected peasants and fishermen, carried out a coup d'état in 1687, when they dethroned Naihat I, and established the Regency of the Five Regions. This regency tried to undo Salia's influence and even bombed that country's ports in the archipelago, causing Admiral - to bomb the capital city Assul and begin, along with the army loyal to the former emperor, the overthrow of the regency. After a great civil war, the Restorers won, with support from Salia, and Yohuchejna, nephew of Naihat I, ascended the throne and renamed Yugai to the Yuchevan Empire. The debts to Salia grew even more and the intervention in domestic politics was wide open. Yohuchejna has weakened local elites while making room for Salia merchants to have political powers. The admiral himself - became the emperor's adviser. Yuchevan became a protectorate, remaining in that system until 1943, when the All People's War toppled the colonial regime in the midst of World War II.

During the Salia administration, a colonial pact system was established, in which Yuchvan could only import from Salia, or would have to charge extremely high fees to import from other nations. This guaranteed the definitive conquest of the island's consumer market to the colonizers. Salian companies also had advantages in the country, and acted mainly in the areas of fishing, vegetal extraction and mining. Agriculture was little explored by settlers, as there was no great attraction in the country due to the cold climate. Over the years, the Salians stopped controlling most of the country's economy, wiping out the power of the local merchant class. During the industrial revolution, the use of Yuchvan as a consumer market intensified, and the country also became an important supplier of minerals for the industry. A national industry, however, was never born, due to the obstructions imposed on the protectorate government that frustrated any industrialist initiative in the country, in favor of maintaining the status of essentially buyer that the colony held.

During the nineteenth century, mainly, nationalist ideas began to emerge in the country, being founded the First Congress of the Nation, in 1892, to discuss the paths of independence of the country and an industrialist project. This congress held annual meetings and brought together members of the Yuchvan commercial bourgeoisie, which lived on the fringes of the system, dominated by merchants from Salia. The movement reached popular strata after the Great Earthquake of 1902, in which Yuchvan received little assistance from his colonial government. During World War I, Yuchvan sent troops to fight on Salia's behalf. [... WWI...] In the interwar period, discontent with the colonial system grew, leading to the emergence of figures such as Inkhatot Malhut, a popular nationalist thinker who preached civil disobedience, and for that reason was arrested by the colonial government on several occasions. Malhut defended a free nation based on the principles of socialism, in which goals such as industrialization and universal education could be achieved. Malhut sought to achieve this peacefully, through non-payment of fees and non-purchase of products from Salia, which would attack the main objective of the colony. World War II, however, was the trigger for the radicalization of the movement, as Phrai Sunkhet, a veteran of World War I, preached non-collaboration with the Salians, and the beginning of an armed revolt against the colonizers. Thus began the Yuchvan War of Independence, within the context of World War II. [...]

Independence
Independence was effectively won in December 1952 with the expulsion of the last soldiers from Salia in the bloody Battle of Lahukpatun in Togasû. Yuchvan continued to collaborate with the Allies against Salia until the end of the conflict, sending airmen, medics and an expeditionary force to Alutra, as well as fighting in later battles in Osamia.

In 1953, the country's independence was recognized with the end of the war, but the future was still uncertain. There was never a centralized independence government, and there were several factions wanting to govern the country, including separatist factions in Saran, such as the Yp-Senghá Kingdom (which intended to restore the other kingdom of the same name) and Gaedung, a monarchy in Saran. There were also the Republicans and the Socialists. Then began a bloody civil war between these various factions, which had several phases. The first phase was less intense, and at its end, the socialist and republican governments signed the Republican-Socialist Concordant, in which they agreed on the principle of "united Yuchi people", that is, it was a joint declaration of war against Yp-Senghá and Gaedung. Yp-Senghá fell into the uprising of the Sukhina Commune, which handed over power to the Socialists. Gaedung was overthrown after a series of battles that lasted more than a year. Finally, in 1956, the anti-union states had been eliminated. Yuchvan pressured the international community to recognize the new state of Yuchvan and withdraw recognition from Yp-Senghá and Gaedung, and the country entered the World Forum. However, it was still without government. The country was divided between the Republic of Yuchvan, controlled by Bakhutmit Ukal of the National Republican Party, and the United Communities of Yuchvan, controlled by Phrai Sunkhet of the Revolution Process Party. As such, Yuchvan had two governments at the same time, which were only on an armistice. The war was resumed in 1958, after reforms were made by national governments, which ensured some reconstruction and preparation for the larger conflict. The civil war lasted until 1963, with the overthrow of the Republican government and the establishment of the socialist state of Yuchvan. Interestingly, this state was bipartisan, as the Republican Party became a legal opposition, despite being inexpressive and considered a "fake" opposition, controlled by the Revolutionary Process Party.

Demographics
Yuchvan's population is 35,363,738, according to estimates for 2021 by the National Institute of Geographical Statistics. This makes the country the tenth most populous country in the world, and the second most populous in Osamia, second only to Gemurtrak. The spatial distribution of the Yuchi population is strongly influenced by climate, so that most of the population is in the northern half of the country, where winters are less severe and there are more resources.

Ethnic groups
The Yuchi people are not homogeneous, being composed of different ethnicities and mixtures, which also influence the language issue. The main ethnic groups are Sarani, Tugatchek, Tchukari, Deichî and Wahatang, which together make up more than 90% of the population. The government recognizes a total of 31 ethnic groups.

- Table -

The Sarani ethnic group mainly inhabits the island of Saran, which is the most populous in the country. Although Sarani is also the name of a language, around 33% of Saranis speak Tenkogul as their first language, these being the inhabitants of the eastern part of Saran. The other Saranis, from the western part, speak mainly Sarani, and in their minority Katung and Guansû. The Sarani make up 27% of the population.

The Tukatcheks and Tchukari share the same space: Togasû Island and the Outlying Islands. In these regions, there is no major ethnic group, as Tukatchek and Tchukari generally account for 30-50% of the population each, and together they add up to more than 80%. On the more eastern and southern islands, there is greater ethnic diversity, with the Deichî and other peoples such as the Tlisjakok and Aruat sharing space. In the north, in the Northern Outlying Islands, the Wahatang ethnic group shares space with the Deichî and other ethnic groups such as the Sarani, Tugatchek and Tchukari.

Languages ​​
The Yuchvan Constitution recognizes a total of 16 national languages, but only Tenkogul has official language status, the rest being co-official. Tenkogul receives this status because it is spoken by more than half of the population (58.25%) as a first language, and is used in commercial settings. The second most relevant language is Sarani, spoken by 22.9% of the population. Tihikti is spoken by 5.0% of the population, followed by Laswhat, with 3.8%, by Remî, with 3.8%, and Arouat, with 3.0%. Other languages ​​spoken are Tlisjakok, Katunt, Guansû, Contun, Tantabi, Qulpaqaqo'ut, Negerowoto, Sâksi, Popuranto and Kiminâ, which are spoken by 3.0% of the population. 0.25% of Yuchi have as their first language other languages, which are not mentioned in the constitution.

Government and politics
Yuchvan is a semi-presidential federal republic, and its rulers and lawmakers are elected by secret universal suffrage in elections that take place every four years. Since it embraces semi-presidentialism, the president and prime minister share important roles in government. The parliament is bicameral, consisting of the Assembly of Communities and the Assembly of People's Representatives. Yuchvan's subdivisions, called communities, also have their own elected governments.

Executive
Yuchvan's president is elected for an eight-year term, with no re-election allowed. In elections, the winner is the one who obtains the highest approval, within the ranked voting system. His attribution is to appoint the prime minister, approve the names for the ministries, be the supreme commander of the armed forces, appoint Supreme Court judges, award prizes and honors, sign or veto laws and represent the country abroad as head of state. The president also holds important positions, such as President of the Assembly of Communities, having the right to one vote, and has an attribution equivalent to the position of minister of foreign affairs, or secretary of state in other countries. The current president is Sutane Zarukt, who has been in office since 2017.

The prime minister is appointed by the president, and can be dismissed at any time by him. It is his duty to appoint the ministers of state and send the budget for the year after to parliament. It assumes the role of party leader in parliament, and must, in addition to having the president's approval, have the approval of at least 20% of the party's affiliates. As such, the prime minister is often chosen from a list already drawn up by the party. The prime minister is more focused on the country's internal politics, being rarely seen at conferences and official trips abroad, occasions where the president is present.

Legislative
The legislature is elected every 4 years, being composed of the Assembly of People's Representatives, with 401 elected delegates, and the Assembly of Communities, with - representatives. They are respectively the upper and lower chambers of Yuchvan. To be elected to any public office in Yuchvan, you must have a college degree or a military career. In the case of delegates from the lower chamber, they must be over 25 years old, while those from the upper chamber must be over 45. The upper chamber is composed of 2 representatives from each community, one being elected and one appointed by parliament, and 10 more % of members nominated for a single year, from varied backgrounds, such as nominations from unions, universities, and the armed forces. 15% of delegates from the lower house also have this condition.

In communities there is a minister-president per community and a Community Assembly. In the districts, there is a governor and a District Chamber, all of which are elected by universal suffrage. Yuchvan's constitution dates back to 1971, the year of the end of the hardest period of the socialist regime.

Political parties
In Yuchvan, there are - political parties in parliament: the Revolutionary Process Party, the Liberal Party, the Solidarity Party, the Center Party and the Communist Party. Despite this variety, especially at the national level, the Revolutionary Process Party has ruled Yuchvan since its founding, characterizing the country as a dominant-party state.

Subdivisions
Yuchvan is a of 23 subnational units, among these, 22 have the status of community (hayê) and there is a federal territory, which is Tipakhualiq. The constitution establishes that they are autonomous entities, that is, they have the right to, self-legislation and self-collection. Its chief executives are called minister-presidents, and are chosen by universal suffrage for a four-year term. Each federal unit elects its representatives independently. The communities and the federal territory also have a legislative body, the Legislative Chambers. Secession from a federal entity is prohibited, but units can join or be created through the approval of the federal parliament followed by a referendum, as with Asue, who was a community before joining Aykhaal due to the level of integration with nearby cities. In turn, communities are divided into districts (there are 315 in total), which are the smallest subdivision established by the constitution, and are generally equivalent to a city, a group of integrated small towns, or even a main city and a satellite city.

The executive at the subnational levels (communities, territories and districts) follows the, that is, it is divided among a certain number of people, who form the Government Directorate (or Public Policy Directorate, at the district level), and generally have specific functions, assuming a department of their qualification. The difference between the federal territory and the communities is that the communities have senators in the national upper chamber. Also, Tipakhualiq is not divided into districts. The communities were designated according to the historical kingdoms of Yuchvan and their respective languages, cultures and ethnicities, but this does not prevent the existence of communities of great diversity.

In addition to the official division into communities and districts, for statistical purposes four national regions are established: the Western Islands (in red on the map), the Central Islands (in blue), the Southern Islands (in green) and the Northern Islands ( in yellow). The of the judiciary are organized according to this regionalization. It is also common for statistical data, news and emergency alerts to refer to the name of the main islands. Thus, Northern Saran, Western Saran, Central Saran and Eastern Saran are grouped together on the Island of Saran, while Baslaat and Aykhaal are on the Island of Togasû and Nikitihuaaq, Lashwa and Ununavat form the Island of Bayktar.

Economy
Yuchvan is a that, since 1970, has transformed itself from a closed economy, linked to  and, to an emerging multi-sector economy, from one of the highest growth rates in the world, in the known period. as "Miracle of Togasû". This remarkable economic growth occurred through manufacturing and a workforce that gradually became highly skilled, leading to a boom in, , and  exports. It is the second largest economy in Osamia and the twelfth and second in the world, both in terms of nominal, at 608.7 billion in 2020, and in the metric of purchasing power parity, at almost 1.1 trillion dollars. The GDP per capita is around 20 thousand dollars. Yuchvan's exports reached $371 billion in 2020, making the country one of the world's leading exporters. Among the main products exported by Yuchvan are automobiles, automobile parts and accessories, clothing and accessories, plastic, electrical machinery and equipment, and electronics and circuits.

Its economy has a strong presence of the, with the state being responsible for more than 60% of housing in cities, in addition to controlling all through the kupahayet, agricultural  aimed at production for the domestic market, with division of almost equal earnings among its members.
