Tashi-Daypa (anglicization), officially the Most Serene Republic of Tashidaypa (Mongolian: Ташидайпагийн хамгийн тайван бүгд найрамдах улс), is a country located in northeast country in Alshar, bordered by Kloistan and Oyashima. Spanning over 21 million people, thirteen prefectures, two autonomous zones, and dozens of nomadic reservations, Tashidaypa remains a vastly diverse nation, with the cultural, economic, and political capital being located in the city of Kalaphu, where national administrative affairs are handled. Despite this, the nation remains predominantly rural and remote, with rates of urbanization being amongst the lowest in the world. Nomadic pastoralism remains relatively common, with nearly a tenth of the countries population being defined as nomadic or semi-nomadic, still belonging to often ancient band, familial, or tribal organizations.
Tashidaypa finds it's origins with the nomadic peoples of the steppe, who lived in broadly pastoralist, simple agricultural, and herder societies, shaped by the extreme variability of the climate and temperature, with early Tashidaypan societies spread out over an already vast steppe into clans and tribal groups. Any population that attempted to sustain itself on agriculture alone were simply unsustainable, and while grain and simple agriculture remained a tenant of most of these emerging societies, by no means were they extensive. Interconnection between these groups existed, however, bolstered by the arrival of Buddhism, and the eventual unification in 211 lead to the Great Plains Khanate, ending an era of predominantly isolated groupings.
In the modern day, Tashidaypa remains internationally and culturally isolated, with simmering sectarian religious, cultural, and political conflicts have kept the nation in a state of constant internal conflict since it's declaration, being considered by the League of Nations as authoritarian in it's nature, despite a period of brief liberalization internally. Civil liberties consistently rank low on international indexes, political freedoms have been increasingly curbed, and the rise of political street violence, accompanied often by political dynasties, have been harshly criticized both internally and externally. Specifically, a de-facto prohibition on alcohol, entrenched political dynasties, and failure to ensure protections for the LGBTQ community, have remain hotly contested by foreign human rights organizations.
Tashidaypa is a member of the League of Nations.
Etymology
Tashidaypa as a name has it's origin in two Tibetan words. The Tashi in Tashidaypa comes from the word "auspicious", and the Daypa comes from a rough translation of the word "faith", leading to the full name being "Auspicious Faith". This is in part due to the spread of Buddhism into the region, as well as the native shamanistic practices of the country, with the name reflective of the nations religious diversity and history. However, the anglicization of the name is Tashi-Daypa, a hyphen added in the middle to signify the difference in words. The name itself is a modern invention, gaining popularity throughout the 20th century.
History
Scholars have consistently argued on if Tashidaypa can be defined as having a unified history, with no clear consensus on if Tashidaypa is a organic evolution from the Great Plains Khanate, or a forced invention of the modern world. Nevertheless, in recent years, there has been an extensive campaign to document both the oral, written, and theorized history of the region. Oral history in particular plays a major role, as folklore and major events have been increasingly studied in the relation of the two. Literacy, while existent, was never widespread on the steppe, leaving a general lack, but not total extinction, of written history.
Prehistory and early history
Settlement of Tashidaypa can be traced back roughly to 19,000 BC, as lively cave paintings in the Bilge Cave System document an originally untold history. This settlement remained presumably sparse, but the earliest trace of a regional culture would be around 2700 BC, where the first evidence of the now staple horse-rider nomadism can be traced too. Wooden and stone tools, alongside evidence of herding equipment, point to a culture generally focused not on agriculture, but on a herder based norm. These discovers have shed light on the earliest settlement of the steppe, with modern-day scholarship pointing to the idea that these early herder based cultures, that largely developed on the steppe as a result of the hostile climate to widespread agriculture, eventually laid the corner-stones for modern-day nomadism on the steppe.
Any population that attempted to sustain itself on agriculture alone were simply unsustainable, and while grain and simple agriculture remained a tenant of most of these emerging societies, by no means were they extensive. Pastoralism provided a universal way of living, paving the way for the emergence of these first clans and tribal groups. These groups, while spread vastly apart on the huge entropy of the steppe, formed into the first political structures, the tribal confederations.
