Canpei, oficially the Republic of Canpei (Corummese:新都共和国) is a country in southern Alshar. It borders Rusana and Corumm to the south, Tanhai to the east and Udon Khai to the west. The name Canpei can be roughly translated as 'the broad north' as the region was known to the Corummese empires to the south, a sort of last frontier before transitioning to the barbarous, nomadic northern steppes. The capital of Canpei is the city of Nicheng, which is located roughly in the geographic center of the country, next to the Hongse river. Canpei has a population of around thirty two million people. Canpei has a mixed economy with elements of state dirigism coexisting with free market capitalism, economic inequality is one of the highest in the world. Most of Canpei's exports use Corummese ports and the nation is very reliant on remittances from Corumm. Canpei is a presidential republic consisting of six provinces. Canpei is classified by the International Liberty Index Foundation as a flawed democracy with worrying downward trends on issues such as corruption, speech and media freedoms and free and fair elections.

Canpei's history is deeply enmeshed with that of its southern Corummese neighbor as the latter began expanding into the area in the early 8th century. Expansion

History

Settlement

Old town of Brink circa 928 CE

The very first attested instance of organized habitation of the Canpei plains is from an Shang dynasty imperial proclamation in 720 CE; granting official town status to the city of Brink which sits at the southern mouth of the Hongse river. Imperial surveyors traveled northbound along the eastern bank of the river encountering small nomadic settlements, its people probably related to the Degei confederation to the east. Imperial authorities erected five wooden forts alongside the river to serve as frontier posts, this territory would be known thereafter as the Left-Bank Frontier province with Brink serving as its first seat. Brink and its hinterlands were dominated by the Houxi clan, linked by marriage to the Imperial family by marriage to a second cousing of the Emperor Cao Mei. The Houxi were thus the beneficiaries of imperial patronage and their province received generous subventions that it otherwise would not be granted given its low population. From 803 CE onwards the Houxi held a monopoly on the office of Imperial Viceroy. It was Viceroy Chang Houxi who first ordered an expedition be mounted across to the other side of the Hongse into what is known as the Mongshe forest, where Huoxi began setting up numerous logging camps. The explotation of forested areas became an important source of revenue for the Houxi family who built a palisade and town named Hochi across the river to serve as the logistic center of the operation. Hochi came under attack several times by previously undiscovered forest peoples, with the Viceroy's escort being attacked on their way from Brink.
