'''Xisheng''', officially '''Xisheng Province''' is an overseas province of the [[Daxia|Democratic Republic of Daxia]] located in northern [[Crona]]. Early Daxian explorers arrived in the Nysdra in the early 1600's, with an imperial punitive expedition wresting possession of the island of [[Cao]] from pirates in 1606. More violent confrontations with then native Cronan kingdomgs in today's [[Quetzenkel]] and [[New Harren]] funneled exploration further east. The fort of Pinghai was founded in 1623 in a coastal region only loosely controlled by the empire of [[Ixa'Taka]]. The following centuries saw an on and off colonization effort that nonetheless spread Daxian presence over the eastern Nysdra coastline. Daxian colonial officials routinely meddled in Ixa'Takan and Chimoche affairs by funding internal dissension, providing mercenaries to rival powers and active campaigns of economic sabotage such as the damming of important rivers to disrupt crop production. The Ixa'Takan Empire and [[Chimoche]] kingdom were overtaken by the 1860's and reduced to vassal states.

Successive Daxian regimes have worked extensively to rebalance the demographic makeup of Xisheng away from native Cronans, so much so that today they constitute only around 35% of the total population. Furthermore Cronan peoples are confined to semi-autonomous reserves

Successive [[Daxia]]n regimes have worked extensively to rebalance the demographic makeup of Xisheng away from native [[Crona]]ns, so much so that today they constitute only around 35% of the total population. Furthermore Cronan peoples are confined to enclosed administrative units with various degrees of autonomy, outside of these quasi states [[Daxia]]n culture is ascendant. Xisheng is the most militarized province on Daxia, given its location surrounded by [[Urcea]]n possesions and the only recently defanged [[Varshan]].
