'''Yanwen''' () is a large country in western [[Davai]], bordering the [[Sensumen Sea]], as well as the islands of [[Kamura]], to the west. Yanwen is notable as being a civilization of eight ''bèi'' (輩) or factions, each of which has competing interests in the empire; the emperor, all-powerful though he technically may be, is there to act more as a referee. Despite this, each faction has seen its way to advancing the development of Yanwen considerably as time has gone on. Yanwen is also historically famous for its silk and its tea.

Yanwen (嫣文) is a large country in western Davai, bordering the Sensumen Sea, as well as the islands of Kamura, to the west. Yanwen is notable as being a civilization of eight bèi (輩) or factions, each of which has competing interests in the empire; the emperor, all-powerful though he technically may be, is there to act more as a referee. Despite this, each faction has seen its way to advancing the development of Yanwen considerably as time has gone on. Yanwen is also historically famous for its silk and its tea.

Etymology

Yanwen is derived from yān (嫣), itself derived from the Old Yannic word *qhran, meaning "beautiful". Yān as a word is used for both the primary river system in Yanwen, and for the Yan people who spread out from along its banks. The second word, wén (文), more broadly refers to "culture", the essence of the people who live there rather than the land itself. Wén, for the Yan people, effectively means "nation".

History

In recent centuries, the bèi have become more obstreperous, each seeking their own dominions within the country and outside it. To their minds, colonial efforts should be permitted without fear of disagreement from nearby nations; they are, after all, the legitimate successors to the empire of Shuǎng (爽), who once laid claim to the entirety of the known world.

Government

The Factions

It is impossible to understand the culture of Yanwen without discussing the bèi. This word, while in the modern day referring to something that might be translated as "faction", initially meant something closer to "moiety". In historical Yanwen, one passed from one moiety to another over the generations, in a specific cycle, dictating certain rituals that one could perform and certain groups that one could not marry into.

Economy

Under Yannic law, the emperor owns all land, all resources, and all infrastructure within the country. In practice, much of this is "loaned" to various bèi, for some part of the decade, in order for them to make adequate use of the land and resources. There is a single currency, but each bèi has its own banks even if it does not maintain its own mints.

The majority of the people of Yanwen belong to one faction or another.
