Negasi, officially the Negasi Republic (Negasi: Jamhuriyar Negasi), is a country predominantly in southwest Tharna with a portion in northwest Tzeraka. Its western boundary is the Vovodaran Sea and the Tanga Moji Sea lies to the country's east. The Ubani Canal links these two seas, forming a route for ocean-going vessels between the Ovestan and Phasian Oceans. The country has an area of 1,217,757 km2 (470,179 sq mi) with a population of 88,910,846.
History
Early history
Colonial period
The region was colonized by Auresia in the early 7400s, with the first records of the South Tharnan colony dating from October 5, 7407.
During the colonial period, the Ubani Canal was built. Construction began in 7563 and the canal opened to ship traffic on December 15, 7607 after some delays during the Great Scourge.
Post-colonial period
Rising anti-colonialism globally after the turn of the 77th century led to a rise in Negasi nationalism in the 7600s. The formation of the Open Seas Security Organisation (OSSO), with its purpose of fostering maritime trade, after the First Coalition War (7632-7634) underscored the importance of the canal for shipping and as a national resource. On the eve of the Second Coalition War, a general strike occurred across much of Negasi beginning on November 16, 7662. Among other effects, the strike shut down canal operations preventing transit between the Ovestian and Phasian Oceans. The strike led to Auresia granting Negasi its independence on January 30, 7663 in exchange for the restarting of canal operations and a promise to keep the canal open.
In 7672, Negasi expropriated the Ubani Canal from its foreign, private owners and nationalized it, placing it under the authority of the Ubani Canal Authority, a government corporation.
Geography
While predominantly located in Tharna, Negasi is astride the division between Tharna and Tzeraka, with a portion of the country's southwest located in the latter continent. The Vovodaran Sea lies to the west and the Tanga Moji Sea adjoins Negasi's east coast. The Koradium Mountains lie along a significant portion of Negasi's northwestern border. This region is home to three large lakes: Moto, Jelwa, and Tila. The Giganum Mountains are in the south. The Ubani Narrows lies between the two large mountain ranges.
The Oluwa Islands comprise a series of several islands off Negasi's west coast in the Vovodaran. There are several islands in the Tanga Moji, including Jabar, Set, Moriba, Salanko, M’basso, Torosso, Kolibelo, and Dyalinko islands.
