Byasa (Byasanese: བྱ་ས; Şovunkeln: Биаса), officially the Republic of Byasa (Byasanese: སྤྱི་མཐུན་རྒྱལ་ཁབ་བྱ་ས; Şovunkeln: Таңһч Биаса) is a landlocked unitary presidential republic in central Ostlandet. It is bordered by Monsilva to the north, Kwazulu-Ciskei to the east, Zloveshchiy to the southeast, Uulgadzar to the south, and Baltanla to the northwest. It is one of the poorest countries in the world and has one of the lowest GDP per capita in the world. Its total population, according to the 2020 census, is 37,506,225. It has a land area of 975,641 square kilometers, making it one of the world's smaller nations. Its capital, Rigrongseb, is the largest city and political center of the nation. It has a population of almost 10 million.
The first Byasanese people likely appeared in the area making up modern Byasa around 4000 BCE. The area has been controlled by many dynasties throughout history, the earliest being the Bhuti dynasty. Power continued to trade between these dynasties, as well as the Zhou dynasty, which controlled the nothern half of the area for around 140 years from 1330 to 1470, and the Union of Uul, which controlled the southern half of the area for about 60 years from 1340 to 1400. The final dynasty was the Gyatso dynasty, which controlled the majority of modern Byasa before the Empire of Baltanla conquered the land in 1552. After the Empire of Baltanla departed in 1739, the Kingdom of Nagstshalsa was created. However, the area was left ethnically and politically fractured and preceded to fall into multiple civil wars and conflicts, including coups. The First Byasanese Civil War took place between 1828 and 1835, caused by a Monsilvan movement for democracy in 1825 which had started the Monsilvan Civil War. However, the most notable civil conflict in Byasa is the Second Byasanese Civil War between 1928 and 1949, where almost 8 million people died after spillover from the Uulgadzan Civil War as well as civil disagreements with the monarchy and the elite which turned into a massive ethnic conflict. The conflict was characterized by massive genocide and destruction of infrastructure. It is commonly said the nation has not recovered from the conflict, even nearly 100 years later, especially after the country's second coup d'état in 1991.
Since 1950, ethnic violence has remained one of the leading causes of death in Byasa. In Rigrongseb alone, almost 100,000 people died from ethnic violence-related causes in 2020. Byasa has one of the lowest life expectancies in Ostlandet, and has the second-lowest HDI in the world. The lack of infrastructure in the nation has caused it to have one of the highest rates of poverty and lowest GDP per capita in the world. It has the highest intentional homicide rate in the world, and has an extremely high crime rate with very little government involvement in the day-to-day affairs of the people. The country's economic inequality is visible geographically, with the country's richest people living predominantly in the two northern-most provinces which border Monsilva and Baltanla, as well as politically, with the country's politicians all coming from families with privileged backgrounds.
Byasa's economy is heavily agriculture-reliant, with nearly 70% of the nation's GDP coming from agricultural sources. In recent years, the nation has begun to invest in mining operations and manufacturing. The manufacturing industry has seen lots of foreign investment, with the government attempting to attract investors by moving police and military units to protect foreign-owned factories. However, since the 2011 factory bombing in Ringrongseb, investors have been wary to operate inside of Byasa and the economy has stagnated as a result.
