Raška is located in Central Anaria. Raška (Rashka) is a collection of few cities and towns which united because of similar language and big bonds they made. After nuclear disaster that destroyed its economy, people of Raška are trying to survive to best of their abilities. Slow inflation, corruption and huge socialist presence in the society and the government, some would say that Raška is at edge of civil war. The only thing Raška has that is acceptable are their cheap and easy to make guns. Capital city of Raška is Krivina, which is extremely polluted due to huge industrial center.
Etymology
The country is named after a lake that was a foundation of Raška as a country.
History
History of Raška is unknown and complex, but only thing that is known is that people of it were united (most of the time). WIP
Early history
- The known history of Raška dates back at least 12.000 years ago. The proofs for it were found tools, weapons and houses which were underground. They were usually either mining in the mountains or fishing in lake Raška.
- The first known settlement was placed inside Vlasivac (Todays second largest city) on shores of Raška lake.
Medieval history
- First King was Veljko the second of Raška, who united most of the towns and castles in northern territories of today's Raška. His reign spanned over 6059-6090
- After his death, his son Luka wasn't able to control all those territories, so he left it to vassals and rich lords (Knjaz) which were just looking out for themselves.
- On New years eve in 6715, complete civil war broke out in Raška. It was fought on 2 sides, between the Knjaz-s of the kingdom who were either for complete national unification or to keep the old system of Knjaz-s controlling their own provinces.
- Turning point is Battle of Ravno polje, where both sides amassed over 70.000 solders and clashed. Both sides suffered over 60 precent casualties but the national unification movement failed and every Knjaz who supported it either died on Ravno polje or got executed later. Only one succeeded in escaping which was in the same family as Veljko the second of Raška, but the dynasty ended with him. The song "March of the unknown solders" was one of the most popular songs made about this battle and it's sung in Raška till this day.
- After the Battle, constant war period came. Battles and sieges were happening all the time and civilians were the ones who suffered the most. The situation was so desperate and miserable that every 3rd death in the region of Raška was caused by war and constant bloodshed, directly or indirectly.
Pre-modern history
- Writer named Nebojša Vlasić published his writings which called for peace and final national unification. His writings were of enormous cultural significance and development.
- People supported him and rebelled together against their leaders and kings. The king who supported Nebojša was Karađorđe (Black Peter) who together with people liberated all of Raška in wars called "Liberation wars" and placed foundations for modern country of Raška.
- He died just one year after unification due to wounds he got from liberation wars.
- Leaders came and went but they were very corrupted. One after another, they were stealing more and more money for themselves.
- Biggest failure was "Project: Pobeda" which was supposed to ensure stable growth of economy, but it did complete opposite and made unrepairable damage to the government reputation.
Recent history
- in 7677 the one of the nuclear reactors at "Vatra" suddenly blew up due to poor conditions of the site and the lack of maintenance. The money that was supposed to be spent on equipment was stolen by the corrupt officials present on the site just few days before the disaster took place. Almost all workers were either killed by initial blast or radiation poisoning later on. Due to massive presence of radiation, even till this day there is an increased number of people suffering and dying from cancer. Safe zone was made 35 kilometers from the blast zone since it was considered by experts that 35 kilometers away is safe.
- 7685 - "Krivina countryside massacre". Because of widespread unhappiness with the ruling party of that time, protests were organized all over Raška. In center of the town over 200.000 people came but police got orders directly from the government to suppress the protest with violence. Individuals from General Police Directorate (Uprava policije) took around 150 civilians, took them outside the town in armored vehicles and proceeded to murder them in most gruesome types imaginable.
- 7687 - "Battle for "Rastkov most" - Clash between military and government-controlled police forces. Military had a direct command to guard the civilians so further violence wont interrupt. Police wanted to continue it and on Rastkov bridge over 50 units from both sides clashed in open fire. Civilians were caught up in crossfire. Over 30 civilians, 20 police men and 7 military units were conformed casualties in the firefight. People call this the turning point and the reason why the following coup happened.
- 7688 was the year that infamous military chief Vladislav Ratković took power by a coup, arrested everyone from the previous government, took their possessions and stolen money and started ruling over Raška with an iron fist.
