Mitruhmoer

Mitruhmoer (formerly Bidruay), officially the Grand Commonwealth of Mitruhmoer is a nation located southeastern [CONTINENT], occupying a strip of land between the Ghingshong Mountains to the north and the Osamian Ocean to the south. Mitruhmoer borders [UNKNOWN] and [UNKNOWN] to the north, and is separated from Gemurtrak to the east by the Sthulista Strait. The Gulf of [Name] lies to the west of Mitruhmoer, separating it from Dayan and [UNKNOWN]. Mitruhmoer also includes the Mitlaengmdrakh Islands which lie in the middle of the Osamian Ocean approximately 800 km south of mainland Mitruhmoer. The capital Skhiajgnag is located in the foothills of the central Ghingshong, believed to be the center of the worldly axes in most native Mudruvese religions. The diverse population of 52.9 million people is concentrated mainly along the coasts, in the southern plains, and along the rivers that carve their way through the many hills and mountains of Mitruhmoer. Mitruhmoer's identity is tied to that of the imperial house, the Shidrang dynasty, traditionally said to have been founded in 1321 BC, with roots back even further. As such, the Emperor of Mitruhmoer, the Bönskhaer Sdorngau (literally 'assembled emperor and great thearch'), is highly revered in traditional Mudruvese religion, and even among the non-religious or secular population.

Mitruhmoer is the site of many archaeological cultures dating back to the late Neolithic. Throughout its history, it has been been the home of many states, with power consolidating in the Hmutrengwös polity some time in the second or first millennium BC. Following the unification of Mitruhmoer in 136 BC, regional leaders remained in power but swore fealty to the Emperor, becoming the constituent kingdoms of Mitruhmoer some of which survive to this day. In the 7th century, Mitruhmoer would be reunited by Emperor [name] against a common enemy, the Southern Empire, who would continue to raid the coasts of Mitruhmoer through the 9th century. While the Southern Empire eventually fell, piracy would remain rampant including many Mudruvese pirates. After years of instability and stagnancy, Mitruhmoer would break out into civil war in 1483, starting the Orphan Court Era. After the reunification of the Empire in 1731, the White Abbey and the Secretariat of Worldly Understanding were established. After industrialization in the 1880s, Mitruhmoer was launched into the world stage, including involvement in the Second World War, and establishing the current parliamentary system. Today, Mitruhmoer is known worldwide for its electronics, manufacturing, and film and television.

History
[WILL CLEAN UP]

The earliest archaeological cultures in Mitruhmoer were found primarily in the east as part of the [eastern subcontinent] Late Neolithic Cultural Exchange. It is believed that the ancestors of the Huim-Thön peoples were included as part of this conglomeration of various ethnic groups in Eastern [continent], and migrated southwards into eastern Mitruhmoer, spreading westwards along the [Name] Mountains. Their expansion appear to have displaced the pre-Huim-Thön people, whose descendants may exist in the [!Formosan/Fieloani] people according to some [Mitruhmoer-ologists].

According to Mudruvese tradition, King Khadag established the first state in 2442 BC at the foot of [Mountain], believed to be the convergence of the worldly axes in most Mudruvese religions. Khadag was the descendant of demons and demigods, and he is said to have ruled for 400 years before being overthrown by the gods, who would establish a regency led by the generals of heaven.

In 1780 BC, the gods in heaven appointed a man called Fodakh Hitthang, who was the descendant of the native gods, to take over the state, named Hmutrengwös (literally “fertile and doubly fruitful”) after its rich soils. During his reign, Fodakh became known as the inventor of agriculture, settlement, and irrigation, expanding his state to include most of western central Mitruhmoer. After another 400 years, the gods returned in fear of another tyranny, but arrived to find Fodakh’s descendant Shänbor ruling Hmutrengwös wisely and righteously. The gods granted him a celestial consort, Princess Shidrang, so that his descendants may unite heaven and earth into a single empire, marking the beginning of the Shidrang dynasty, which rules over Mitruhmoer to this day.

Historical records of Mitruhmoer date to the early mid-period of the Hmutrengwös polity in the 11th century BC, primarily through funerary tables and tax records. Through these, the existence of the Shidrang dynasty as a power in the [river name] river valley can be corroborated. By the 7th century BC, expansion of Hmutrengwös began to cover most of central Mitruhmoer, introducing various and populous new ethnic groups into the kingdom, starting the ethnogenesis of the Rgätsuim people. The Thönva are believed to be the remnants of an unintegrated population of Huim-Thön tribes in the hills of western Mitruhmoer.

In 136 BC, King [name] united the Mudruvese coast into a single nation, including the western provinces of [name] and the eastern [name] Peninsula. He declared Mitruhmoer an empire and took the title of Bönskhaer Sdorngau, a title which every Mudruvese Emperor since has held.

(5th century, succession crisis, Period of Three Courts) (Southern Empire marked rise of pirates along the coast in the 7th century, later Mudruvese privateers would continue the trend of piracy, leading to the settlement of Mitlerbyag Islands) (Tsuapshong was re-codified in 12th century by Grand Abbess [name]) (Warring states period in 15th century, (resulting in possible loss of eastern peninsula to Gemurtrak?), with imperial control remaining only near the capital and the seat of the Secretariat of Worldly Understanding, followed by restoration)

Following the restoration of the Emperor and reunification of Mitruhmoer in 1731, the White Abbey was established in [name of hill] to promote unity, pacifism, and order. In addition, the Secretariat of Worldly Understanding was granted partial legislative power in order to help its role of administering the re-expanded empire.

Industrialization reached Mitruhmoer in the 1880s, when Emperor [name], in contrast to the isolationist policies of his father, opened up Mitruhmoer to foreign traders. While making Mitruhmoer a ripe target for colonialist powers, it allowed the cities on the coast to urbanize more rapidly, and road and soon rail networks linking the interior with the coast, most notably the Bidruay Grand Line in 1905 connecting Mitruhmoer from east to west.

Foreign influence soon brought new values to Mitruhmoer, with waves of liberalization and political ideologies arriving during the 1900s under the reign of [name]’s younger brother, Emperor [name]. This included waves of socialism during the 1920s, much to the dislike of industrialists and militarists, who, with the approval of the new Emperor [], began an insurrection against them and Alutran influence in a new wave of nationalism, as well as drumming up support to conquer the Ornyenka region. His untimely death in 1940 allowed his younger brother Emperor [name] to counteract the militarist faction with the help of the pacifistic nuns, leading to the reinstatement of the White Abbey, and ultimately cooperating with Gemurtrak during the Second World War to block the Ornyenka Strait from the Axis. He would also re-establish the College of the Twelve-Thousand Advisors and expand the role of the Prime Secretary in hopes to prevent factionalism from dividing Mitruhmoer and lead it away from peace.

He however would succumb shortly after, and his nephew Emperor [name] would rise to the throne, slowly rebuilding Mitruhmoer's economy and establishing a revitalized national identity, while working together with other nations in the region to promote peace. His long reign came to an end in 1996, when he was succeeded by his eldest son Emperor [name]. During his era, Mitruhmoer’s began its expansion into electronics, providing a significant boon to its economy and relative power. After his tragic death in a plane crash, his younger brother the current Emperor [name] established Emperor [name] Day in his brother’s honor, followed by Emperor [name] Day for his father’s long and peaceful reign. Mitruhmoer began making its way into international media at this time through film and television, with Mudruvese dramas and satires becoming one of Mitruhmoer’s most well known industries.
