'''Sequoyah''' ([[Sequoyan language|Sequoyan]]: ᏍᏏᏉᏯ, transliteration: ''Ssiquoya''; {{small|Sequoyan pronunciation:}} {{color|#122080|[siːˈkɔɪjə]}}), officially the '''Republic of Sequoyah''' (ᎠᏰᎵᎤᏙᏢ ᏍᏏᏉᏯ, ''Ayeliudotlv Ssiquoya''), is a country located in southern [[Sur]]. It is bordered to the north by [[Creeperopolis]] and surrounded on the east by the [[Asequi Strait]] and to the south and west by the [[Southern Ocean]]. With an area of {{convert|1154042|mi|km}} divided into [[Provinces of Sequoyah|6 provinces]], Sequoyah is the third largest country in Sur and the tenth largest in the world. Sequoyah's largest and capital city is [[Asequi]]. As of 2022, Sequoyah has a population of 39.4 million.

Humans arrived in modern-day Sequoyah around 24,000 years ago. Around 3500 BC, migrants of the [[prehistoric-Creeperian diaspora]] arrived in Sequoyah and displaced the peoples already inhabiting the area. This displacement began the split between [[Sequoyans]]—who inhabited the coastal areas—and [[Tribal Sequoyans|Tribals]]—who inhabited the inland regions. Several kingdoms arose throughout the following millennia, and warfare between Sequoyans and Tribals was common. In the early-1500s, the [[Empire of Sequoyah]] [[War of Sequoyan Unification|united all Sequoyans and Tribals]] under one state and forced out [[Captaincy General of San Juan|Creeperian colonists]] in northeastern Sequoyah by 1518. The empire [[Fall of the Empire of Sequoyah|fell in 1876]] and splintered into four states: the [[First Republic of Sequoyah|Republic of Sequoyah]], the [[Kingdom of the Cheyall]], the [[Kingdom of the Navaja]], and the [[Caprican Republic]]. Sequoyah [[Sequoyan War of Reunification|reunited]] all four states in 1912 following a [[1900 Sequoyan coup d'état|coup d'état]] in 1900 which established a [[Second Republic of Sequoyah|military dictatorship]]. The dictatorship allowed reform in 1943 and led to the establishment of a [[Third Republic of Sequoyah|personalist dictatorship]] under Prime Minister [[Diwali Ustya]] which held power until [[1959 Sequoyan coup d'état|it was overthrown in 1959]]. The following year, a [[Fourth Republic of Sequoyah|new political system]] was established and remained intact until the [[Sequoyan Civil War]] and the [[CODECO military intervention in Sequoyah|government's overthrow]] by the [[Cooperation and Development Coalition]] (CODECO) in 2020. A [[Constitution of Sequoyah|new constitution]] was adopted in 2021 the [[National Reconstruction Party (Sequoyah)|National Reconstruction Party]] has ruled the country since 2022 with CODECO's external support.

The '''Republic of Sequoyah''' (Sequoyan: ''ᎦᎫᏍᏛᏗ ᎠᏰᎵᎤᏙᏢ ᏍᏏᏉᏯ''), or simply '''Sequoyah''' (''ᏍᏏᏉᏯ''), is a [[Sur]]ian nation to the south of [[Creeperopolis]]. The nation itself is made up of different ethnic groups and tribes that the Government tries to assimilate and dominate. The government is a semi-federal presidential republic hellbent on expanding its influence from its capitol of [[Freemont]] to the Western city of [[Angeles]].

== Etymology ==
 +
 
 +
The origin of the name Sequoyah (ᏍᏏᏉᏯ, ''Ssiquoya'') is unknown, but linguists generally believe that the name derives from the [[Sequoyan language|Sequoyan]] word ''siqua'' (ᏏᏆ), meaning "hog", arguing that "Sequoyah" means "place of hogs" in the Sequoyan language.

The Sequoyan tribes followed migrating bison herds on horseback. Where they originally came from is unknown, as Sequoyan written history speaks only of the "Land northward" as where they originated from. Over 1000 years, the Sequoyan tribe began farming and forming towns while the [[Navaja]] and [[Cheyall]] chose to continue pursuing a nomadic lifestyle while the Sequoyans began farming and formed a centralized polical strucuture. As the Sequoyans settled on the cost of the Senvarian sea (which allowed their population to grow), the other tribes remained on the plains inland. Over time, the Sequoyans developed metalworking, writing, and pottery independently. Several smaller tribes developed (such as the [[Capricans]], bringing the entire number of tribes in Sequoyah to 13.

The Sequoyans remained relatively isolated from the world until Sequoyan scouts encountered soldiers from [[Creeperopolis]] in 1367. This lead to Christianity spreading to Sequoyah. By 1500, Christianity would become the major religion under the Sequoyan tribe. Claiming the divine right of kings, Chief [[Sequoyah I]] declared that it was the destiny of his tribe to expand across the continent, from the [[Senvarian Sea]] to the [[Almanople Ocean]].

From 1509-1532, under the reign of Sequoyah I, the Sequoyan tribe pushed the pastoralist [[Navaja]] and [[Cheyall]] tribes out of Eastern Sequoyah entirely. This expansion was brought to an abrupt end by religious turmoil within the [[Sequoyan tribe]], as some religious leaders began to challenge the [[Creeperian Catholic Church]]'s authority, claiming that it had warped the [[bible]] to gain political and economic power. Religious divisions within Sequoyah lead to the [[5 years war]] within the tribe, as a group calling themselves the [[Samaritans]] (after the biblical group) overthrew [[Sequoyah I]] who was then exiled to [[Creeperopolis]].

Odysseus also founded the [[Sequoyan Church]], which supported a personal relationship with God and access to the bible for all. This was known as the [[Good time]]. This time of relative peace under Odysseus would last until his death in 1570. After his death, the [[Odyssian Dynasty]] consisting of his line would hold power in the chiefdom for nearly 300 years. The dynasty supported the power of the [[Sequoyan Church]], expanding trade networks with other tribes, and pushing towards technological innovation.

Massive steel deposits were discovered in Eastern Sequoyah, leading to massive mining operations beginning in the East. In 1831, reports of gold and diamond deposits in Western Sequoyah lead to the founding of the [[Union Railroad Company]] to create a quick path to the gold and diamond deposits. In 1833, the [[Union Railroad Company]] bought out all of the steel deposits in the East, creating a monopoly. The Union Railroad Company established [[Freemont]] as its headquarters, and the small town became home to miners, railroad workers, adminastrators, and fur traders. This development lead to a population explosion among the Sequoyan tribe. However, as railroad construction began, the [[Navaja]] and [[Cheyall]] began to attack the railroad, using Western Sequoyan guns they had traded for. This was due to fears that the railroad would infringe upon the sacred lands of the tribes. Instead of pushing westward, the Union Railroad Company established several towns throughout the Eastern Sequoyah. In 1835, a new railroad company, the [[Central Railroad Company]], established a settlement and headquarters in Western Sequoyah, calling it "Ciudad of Angeles", or simply [[Angeles]]. Central Pacific and Union Pacific companies were both hellbent on building a transcontinental railroad. However, intense fighting from tribals prevented the companies from expansion. In 1869, several thousand Sequoyans established a settlement in central Sequoyah called [[New Samaria]]. The settlement was able to establish friendly relations with the tribals. The settlement became mixed with the white Sequoyans and the tribals within only 5 years. As a result of this, the New Samaritans developed a unique religion and culture, which mixed tribal beliefs and Christian beliefs and practices. New Sequoyans began dressing in "civilized clothing" with tribal patterns and beads sown into them. They began practicing a religion known as the [[Samaritan Path]], which stated that God had established natural temples in the untainted landscapes of the world, and that those lands had to be defended against by greedy corporations, which the Samaritans called "Babylonians."

The Republic of Sequoyah was founded in 1876 by the [[Union Railroad Company]] to protect its operations in the area from [[Navaja]] and [[Cheyall]] and [[New Samaria]] raiding parties. Angeles and the Central Railroad Company soon joined the Republic. The Republic, a federal presidential republic with a bicameral legislature was largely controlled by the Railroad companies who hoped to reach the diamond and gold deposits. In 1900, the [[Sequoyan Congress]] voted to allow whichever Railroad company that reached the direct center of the Sequoyan territory exclusive access to the gold and diamond deposits in central and Western Sequoyah. In response, the railroad Companies began massing private armies and demanded that the Republic provided military protection against the tribals and Samaritans. Sequoyah became so focused on taking complete control of the land and "civilizing" the tribals that it stalled technologically. While the rest of the world advanced in technology and developed airplanes and internet, the Sequoyan culture preferred the railroads and radio.

Politics in Sequoyah are dominated by two political parties: The Whigs and the Federalists. The Federalists support manufacturing, tarriffs, and large government intervention in the economy and are socially liberal, while the Whigs support a farming based economy, free trade, and lassiez-faire economics. They also favor social conservatism. Both parties support the [[Sequoyan Transcontinental Railroad]] and the assimilation of the native tribes. The ability to pass laws is held by the Congress, while the President is supreme commander of the military. Sequoyah is divided into two legislative districts: Angeles in the west, and Eastern Sequoyah in the East. Each district sends 5 senators to the Senate, while the House membership is determined by population. Currently, the Federalists control the West, while the East is controlled by the whigs. Each province can make its own laws so long as those laws don't contradict federal ones. Nueva Vegas is more autonamous than the other cities. Although it has no seat in Congress, Vegas can make its own laws whether they contradict federal law or not, so long as they pay taxes to the Federal government as set by Congress.

The economy of Sequoyah is focused largely on the Railroad industry. Eastern Sequoyah is known for their massive plantations that were formerly maintained by the now-illegal [[Sequoyan Slave Trade]]. Eastern Sequoyah grows [[cotton]], [[tobacco]], and [[corn]] in excess. [[Western sequoyah]] is known for their manufacturing industries, which produce firearms, steel, and luxury goods. There are substantial coal deposits in Western Sequoyah. Iron mines are the primary source of income in [[New Austin]].

Sequoyah (Sequoyan: ᏍᏏᏉᏯ, transliteration: Ssiquoya; Sequoyan pronunciation: [siːˈkɔɪjə]), officially the Republic of Sequoyah (ᎠᏰᎵᎤᏙᏢ ᏍᏏᏉᏯ, Ayeliudotlv Ssiquoya), is a country located in southern Sur. It is bordered to the north by Creeperopolis and surrounded on the east by the Asequi Strait and to the south and west by the Southern Ocean. With an area of 1,154,042 miles (1,857,251 km) divided into 6 provinces, Sequoyah is the third largest country in Sur and the tenth largest in the world. Sequoyah's largest and capital city is Asequi. As of 2022, Sequoyah has a population of 39.4 million.

Humans arrived in modern-day Sequoyah around 24,000 years ago. Around 3500 BC, migrants of the prehistoric-Creeperian diaspora arrived in Sequoyah and displaced the peoples already inhabiting the area. This displacement began the split between Sequoyans—who inhabited the coastal areas—and Tribals—who inhabited the inland regions. Several kingdoms arose throughout the following millennia, and warfare between Sequoyans and Tribals was common. In the early-1500s, the Empire of Sequoyah united all Sequoyans and Tribals under one state and forced out Creeperian colonists in northeastern Sequoyah by 1518. The empire fell in 1876 and splintered into four states: the Republic of Sequoyah, the Kingdom of the Cheyall, the Kingdom of the Navaja, and the Caprican Republic. Sequoyah reunited all four states in 1912 following a coup d'état in 1900 which established a military dictatorship. The dictatorship allowed reform in 1943 and led to the establishment of a personalist dictatorship under Prime Minister Diwali Ustya which held power until it was overthrown in 1959. The following year, a new political system was established and remained intact until the Sequoyan Civil War and the government's overthrow by the Cooperation and Development Coalition (CODECO) in 2020. A new constitution was adopted in 2021 the National Reconstruction Party has ruled the country since 2022 with CODECO's external support.

Etymology

The origin of the name Sequoyah (ᏍᏏᏉᏯ, Ssiquoya) is unknown, but linguists generally believe that the name derives from the Sequoyan word siqua (ᏏᏆ), meaning "hog", arguing that "Sequoyah" means "place of hogs" in the Sequoyan language.

History

Prehistory

The Sequoyan tribes followed migrating bison herds on horseback. Where they originally came from is unknown, as Sequoyan written history speaks only of the "Land northward" as where they originated from. Over 1000 years, the Sequoyan tribe began farming and forming towns while the Navaja and Cheyall chose to continue pursuing a nomadic lifestyle while the Sequoyans began farming and formed a centralized polical strucuture. As the Sequoyans settled on the cost of the Senvarian sea (which allowed their population to grow), the other tribes remained on the plains inland. Over time, the Sequoyans developed metalworking, writing, and pottery independently. Several smaller tribes developed (such as the Capricans, bringing the entire number of tribes in Sequoyah to 13.

Post-diaspora era

Empire of Sequoyah

From 1509-1532, under the reign of Sequoyah I, the Sequoyan tribe pushed the pastoralist Navaja and Cheyall tribes out of Eastern Sequoyah entirely. This expansion was brought to an abrupt end by religious turmoil within the Sequoyan tribe, as some religious leaders began to challenge the Creeperian Catholic Church's authority, claiming that it had warped the bible to gain political and economic power. Religious divisions within Sequoyah lead to the 5 years war within the tribe, as a group calling themselves the Samaritans (after the biblical group) overthrew Sequoyah I who was then exiled to Creeperopolis.

In 1533, Odysseus I took the throne as chieftan of the Sequoyah Tribe. Under his reign, a trading relationship with the Navaja and Cheyall tribes, trading farmed goods and metal tools in exchange for bison meat and animal furs. Odysseus also founded the Sequoyan Church, which supported a personal relationship with God and access to the bible for all. This was known as the Good time. This time of relative peace under Odysseus would last until his death in 1570. After his death, the Odyssian Dynasty consisting of his line would hold power in the chiefdom for nearly 300 years. The dynasty supported the power of the Sequoyan Church, expanding trade networks with other tribes, and pushing towards technological innovation.

Politics

Politics in Sequoyah are dominated by two political parties: The Whigs and the Federalists. The Federalists support manufacturing, tarriffs, and large government intervention in the economy and are socially liberal, while the Whigs support a farming based economy, free trade, and lassiez-faire economics. They also favor social conservatism. Both parties support the Sequoyan Transcontinental Railroad and the assimilation of the native tribes. The ability to pass laws is held by the Congress, while the President is supreme commander of the military. Sequoyah is divided into two legislative districts: Kalgaduv in the west, and Eastern Sequoyah in the East. Each district sends 5 senators to the Senate, while the House membership is determined by population. Currently, the Federalists control the West, while the East is controlled by the whigs. Each province can make its own laws so long as those laws don't contradict federal ones. Itse Gadu is more autonamous than the other cities. Although it has no seat in Congress, Vegas can make its own laws whether they contradict federal law or not, so long as they pay taxes to the Federal government as set by Congress.
