Tákjaana

Tákjaana (: Takjjana, : Takkana), officially the Tákjaan Confederation, (: Takjjan konsearna, : Takkan téraba), is a large confederacy of composing of 7 constituent states as one special federal district, situated on the southern half of Osamia. It is bordered to the northwest by Gemurtrak, to the northeast by TBD, and shares a maritime border with Fieloani to the south-west. The confederacy is divided among the TBD mountains, the Niekan tundra, and expansive hills and forests in northeast. Tákjaana has a population of 36 million, the majority of which being concentrated in the the warm north of the country. The largest city of the confederacy is the port city of Cirsa, with the capital being the city of Sidavaras in the extreme south. Other major cities include Silas, Busdá, Homsa, Koasta, and Vajmar.

The earliest records of human settlement in modern-day Takjaana date back to the. Early kingdoms centered around the ``TBD`` sea ruled trade and politics in the southern half of Osamia until southern raiders came to dominate the region. These raiders (and various other groups under their rule) came under the control of the Niekan kingdom in the 13th century. Following the slaughter of the Niekan King Eiven (often referred to as the Stag King) by Fielonic warriors, southern Osamia came under dominance of the Southern Empire. The Trakian invasion in the late 15th century led to the collapse of Niekas, and the vassalizing of much of the former territory. Trade from Alutra began to overpower the influence of the northern duchies however, with the eastern Kingdoms of Takjaana falling to protectorate status under Ordrey, and the western kingdoms being directly replaced by a Myrsh.

Internal resentment against both colonial governments began to arise in the late 19th century. Many activists inspired by those in Gemurtrak began spouting ideas of, , and Gekezikism. Inspired by the recent revolution in Gemurtrak, rebellion arose throughout the colonies. The rebellion grew divided, with many in the east calling for unity with the recently established Osamian Federation, completely opposed to the more bourgeois elements of the western rebels who opposed unification. In 1913, the Takjaan Confederation was established in the west, with the east joining the Federation as 2 constituent republics. The new confederation slowly drifted towards Fieloni due to it's relative isolation, becoming the largest barrier in the way of Osmian unity. Under the ere of liberating the Takjaan people, the Osamian Federation invaded Takjaana in 1941. Though the invasion was won, Takjaana remained an independent nation, and turmoil arose in the Takjaan republics in the Federation. Following a military coup in the Federation (and subsequent civil war) in 1951, the western states of Javria and Sindsad joined Takjaana. In 1971, Takjaan Premier Mihkkel Olet dissolved the Takjaan Assembly, leading to a coup and brief interim government before the return of democracy.
