Shaaniaah

Shaaniaah is a founding member state of Sokoku, located on the Altaian mainland in the country's far east. It is a continuation of the Hallish colony of Bowersland, which with the help of makeshift forces from Fisks and Shuuen was liberated in 7XXX. It was one of the founding states of the federative republic of Sokoku. Inclusion of the rather sparsely populated territory on the mainland with its totally different cultural and ethnic background was one of the deciding factors in creating a multi-ethnic state in this region of the Julian Sea.

After Mirei, Shaaniaah is the least populated of the member states.

The name Shaaniaah is mainly sued in the local Izto language. In Bahaso Sokoku the member state is called Tanya Tanah, which is also used as the official name within Sokoku. Other names like Shensutochi (しえんすとち) in Kakuri or Bågeland in Wortsproke don't have an official status.
