Ukilen Union

Baphia, officially the Democratic Union of Baphia (Baphian: Bafia Minju Soyu (pronunciation: [bafɪja mɪnd͡ʑju sɔju]), Noellastani: Republe Vona Baphia (pronunciation: [ʁɛpʊblə vonə bæβjə]), Kzmr: 'Bfžh Skrk'i'hhvu Þb'asmpn (pronunciation: [bafʒa ʃəcr̩cewuwɵ̞v ðəbasəmapn̩]), Jkawi: , Azkali: Notheztakin Dekratzithe en Ikui (pronunciation: [nɔθes̻takin ðekɾat̪s̻ɪθɛ ɛn ɪkuɪ], Hallusian: ), is a country that spans the vast majority of Ukilen and all of Northern Ukilen. It borders Sunteria, Azkali, and Jkawi, and shares maritime borders with Kalitana and Union. Baphia consists of 3 constituent countries, Baphia Minor, Kzmr, and Yamahat, and 2 constituent colonies, Hallei and Jyosti, which are the same thing except for title and importance to the greater union. Constituent countries and colonies are de facto independent, and represent themselves internationally, but de jure all the same country.

Baphia has over 200 million people within its borders and is the most populated country in the world, as well as being both one of the least densely populated overall (without counting Turku or Bongsibon) and having the most densely populated city in the world, Turku. About Half of the country is desert with the other half being either steppe, pine forest, swamp or tundra in their respective regions. The country is not very mountainous, with the only mountains being around Turku and near the Azkali border. Baphia is currently experiencing a 4th baby boom due to returning soldiers from the 3rd Bapho-Azkali war.

History

Prehistory

Settlement

Baphia has had occupants' sense at least 4500 BC if not sooner, some estimates even say as early as 7000 BC. During initial occupation of Baphia, only Kalis and proto-Kaneeds had settled in the area. Many proto-Kaneeds went north to Jyosti and settled there. The first archaeologically attested wave of migrations is sometime in 5000 BC from Azkali and Kali. The first permanent settlement was around where modern Bongsibon is today, some argue that Bongsibon is this first settlement. Sometime in 2500 BC, Kaneeds from the north began to come south and settle in modern day Kzmr and slowly became what are now known as Xeric Kaneed. Soon after another wave of Kaneed migration from Jyosti and Modern day Azkali slowly made Kaneed become the majority in northern Ukilen.

Tribe wars

As things grew peaceful and people began to settle, many Kaneed and Kali tribes began to fight with each other over the limited resources of use to them at the time, as there weren't many faunae in the deserts and steppes. Soon, 12 families and tribes grew to prominence and controlled all of Northern Ukilen.
