Chaska is a reasonably large, reasonably populated nation just to the south of the equator. It is most prominently known for its history (once part of three separate empires simultaneously), its reserves of gold and coal and plantations of coffee, its architecture, and its music.

Chaska used to be the eastern provinces of Huilcasonco, an empire spanning the Kancha and Suyana Mountain ranges and much of their associated lowlands on either side. Once divided, it then survived in the form of Ayawantin, an independent state in the southern lowlands which expanded out to the islands in the east while the mountains became the territory of colonial states. It was only after the Quiet Revolution that the two were reunited once again into the state occupying its present borders, although they were obliged to forfeit the island territory they had since gained.

Today, Chaska is divided into the northern regions—industrial, more than slightly Livaryan in look and manner, whose wealth comes from the provision of power through thermal generators on the mountain coastline—and the southern regions—less industrialized and more traditionalist (they call themselves ñach'uq "authentic, pure"), whose main wealth comes from trade and the plantations of coffee and spices found in the lowlands.

Etymology

Chaska as a name is a derivation (or perhaps acts a source for a derivation) of the word Chaskar, the Remana name for the planet Samler. Its bright white-blue light, appearing at morning or evening as "a grain of sky against the sunset", has made it an important star for the Ruma people and their neighbours for millennia, even forming the basis of a number of calendrical systems.

History

Chaskan history is often likened to Ruma history; many historians consider them one and the same, and the rest of the country's peoples mere afterthoughts. In fact, the Ruma and their Azix relatives are relative newcomers to the content, which had been inhabited for thousands of years prior to their crossing in from the northeast.
