Yanwen (嫣) 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.
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.
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.
