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, oficially the '''Republic of Canpei''' (Corummese:新都共和国) is a country in southern [[Alshar]].

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 | 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 into the plains was slow at first but gathered pace as nomad tribes were either pushed further north or brought to heel by military or diplomatic means. | ||
