Circa early 600's BC nomad tribes migrating(expelled by other Duamacian tribes, fleeing famine/natural disaster/plagues/seeking new grasslands/etc) from the north Tanhai settle in northwestern Tanhai, create the Degei confederation(I originally imagined them as closely resembling the manchu people but Dia you decide, 'Degei' is just what they are called in Corumm). Circa 670's they start doing what nomads do and go raid and wreck other peoples shit, aka they ride south into the corummese shang dynasty. After a few years they get their shit pushed in and Shang moves into Tanhai and turns part of it into an imperial province(extensive corummese settlement at this point in south and central tanhai) and the Degei are relegated to the northern border zone as vassals and military auxiliaries. | Circa early 600's BC nomad tribes migrating(expelled by other Duamacian tribes, fleeing famine/natural disaster/plagues/seeking new grasslands/etc) from the north Tanhai settle in northwestern Tanhai, create the Degei confederation(I originally imagined them as closely resembling the manchu people but Dia you decide, 'Degei' is just what they are called in Corumm).

Downfall of Shang dynasty in 840-850's spells doom for control of the province, ambitious viceroy declares himself Despot of Great Tang with foreign backing(Dia or metz local actors or central govs depending on situation at the time) and buys loyalty of local garrisons | Downfall of Shang dynasty in 840-850's spells doom for control of the province, ambitious viceroy declares himself Despot of Great Tang with foreign backing(Dia or metz local actors or central govs depending on situation at the time) and buys loyalty of local garrisons. Tang invades eastern peninsula to take it from the metzettan statelet, probably loses badly and wastes precious military resources in the process. Smelling weakness, nomads stir again. Despotate limps on several decades more | ||

Tang name gets corrupted into Tanhai? or something lol. Northern nomads over time become landed nobles/marcher lords/sipahis providing safety at the border/cavalry for Tanhai's armies in exchange for land and other benefits | Tang name gets corrupted into Tanhai? or something lol.
