History

The War of the Yuyu

The War of the Yuyu, or the TrexMi Gimal Di Axim (Thirty Years Fight for freedom) Was fought by the Gharrakan antinationalist public from 101 CE to the assassination of Emporer Paxax Yuyu in 131 CE. Around four million people diied in the conflict, which was sparked off with the execution of Sulax headpreist Kapim Immins for the sole reason that he preached Sulaxism. On one side was the Yuyite Army and Nationalist Gharrakland Public and on the other was the Gharrakan Antinationalist public and Imperial Sulaxists. Most of it was fought in the Karfainuaxa Desert and the Xankan Rainforest.It resulted with the split of Gharrakland into two nations, Chansa (Present-day New Gharrakland) And Gharrakland.

Terezanskidom and the uprising

Zanski was once part of Terezanskidom, a small but brutal country, floating in the sea on a mothership that was ruled by crispin terezanski. Back then Zanski was called Terezanskiland and was surrounded by tall walls, trapping the Zanx under control of soldiers, who, by tradition would pick off one civillian every day. One day, when the legs of lamb were thrown to the people, the zanx started hacking at the walls with the bone. The soldiers started picking off individuals, but this didn't stop them. There are reports of people clawing at the walls with bleeding hands. Eventually the walls gave in, letting the Zanx pour through the hole. They then got through to the government building and killed everyone in there. according to the late president Merech Zanski, who was one of the ones in the building, Crispin Terezanski jumped out the window in fear of the rebels. The soldiers, in an effort to kill themselves, blew up the control part. No one knows what happened then, but nearly every single rebel survived the explosion.

Establishment

The ship crashed in the land of Gharrakland, a land full of lush rainforests and mountains. The Zanx people then chose a leader out of the three rebels who overthrew the Terezanskidomian government and were in the building. They chose Merech Zanski, nephew of Crispin Terezanski. They travelled for many miles until they got to Xanka, a large city where the Gharrakan government was based. They won a battle against the Gharrakan soldiers (5 Zanxmen to 20 Gharrakans) and put the government building on top of Xankasharamount, a large mountain into siege. Eventually the dictator died and the Zanx took over Gharrakland.


Zanski's involvement in the Chitze invasion

Once the population had grown and a decent army was gathered, the Zanx Offensive Army joined a coalition and invaded the city of Yrttal in Chitzeland In the Chitze Revolution.

Then a nation named Pudu invaded the Chitze city of Locke. Zanski sent in bomber Planes and tanks, all part of Operation Condor, Which, overall did not affect the huge Pudite army. There are rumors of ZATA being involved in the operation. President Merech Zanski died in the middle of the war at 78 years old and marches in Yrttal were arranged.

Soon After, arms were put down against Pudu.Jarak Arma Then ordered a successful invasion of Bearmish for more space with minimal civillian casualties, Which was soon thwarted by The Shahdom Of The Parthians. After warnings not to go East to Yrttal, The Parthians ignored the warning and sent their army towards Yrttal. They decided not to, and went back to bearmish.

Parthia sent nerve gas into the city and the siege ended, letting Zanski move to occupy the Northwest Lake District region, setting up huge guarded walls to mark the borders and flying into Non-Zanx territory to make a point of how good our defense system was, and not invading us.As Zanski likes to have its borders clear, a wide scale operation was in order to capture Bealle, the only part on the Western side of the river that Pudu controlled.

The involvement of Zanski ended when the nations Dephire,Pudu and Parthia invaded the Zanx Northwest Chitzeland Territories and Zanski was forced out.

The Karfainuaxa Wars

The first Karfainuaxa War (1944-1945)

In October 1944, New Gharrakland Broke the Clause Of Justice and turned itself into a terrible Dictatorship, making its citizens work to the death to boost the failing economy. It turned itself into the richest state in Gharrakland, but refused to give money to the laborers.But N.Gharrakland made the biggest mistake when Maxua G.Tazimu announced plans to take the Karfainuaxa Desert and the desert cities as their own. President Jarak Arma of Zanski ordered troops to guard the border heavily in case Gharrakland tried anything, but the feared militia, the Moxiga, showed up and tore through the defense lines before the New Gharraklandic army moved in.

The Zanx Defenses were waiting, however, at the desert border and weakened the N.Gharraklandic forces but were ultimately destroyed. The Moxiga marched into the desert to help the army.Basenjiland intervened to aid Zanski.

For many months, a guerilla war was raging in the desert. On 19th September 1945, ZATA, the people in Zanski who know best how to fight a guerilla war, announced they were back in buisiness. Headed by new leader Jacob Axim, they drove the Moxiga out, starting a rivalry between the two terror groups, and pulled out again, telling Jarak Arma that his legacy (Arma was once head of ZATA) will remain. On 16th November 1945, Zanx forces drove N.Gharrakland out, infiltrated the borders, Occupied Northern and Central parts of the country, including the capital, Tumada, and exiled Maxua Tazima to Yatta Island Prison For War Criminals for life.

Zanski ended the occupation in 1946.

The second Karfainuaxa War (1947-1950)

One Year after the Zanx occupation ended, the Moxiga in N.Gharrakland massacred the immediate family of President Yimmir Akbar, put in place by the Zanx government, for the sole reason that he refused to even think about claiming Karfainuaxa. A new Maxua, the pschotic Hunim Uziam was elected as president, with pressure from the Moxiga. Soon over twenty million soldiers (90% of them civillian volunteers) were gathered in New Manache, base of the N.Gharraklandic army, ready to infiltrate Zanski and destroy any soldiers.

The Zanx army, however, were ready, and Jarak Arma ordered 300 Sonicmaster planes to fly over New Manache and destroy the whole army, and this was almost completed. Only thirteen million survived, making the New Manache strike the most deadly raid ever in Continential Gharrakland.

The Moxiga appeared at the Zanx border, and within two days they had destroyed most of the Zanx forces-but this time they had marched to Zanski's biggest city, Shuza. Two thousand civillians were massacred. Although Zanx forces came to help, the Moxiga, with almost fifty million members, went East to their original target before the raid-Karfainuaxa.

The N.Gharrakland army, of which ten million had left in fear (Leaving three million) also came to the scene, with twenty-seven million N.Gharrakan combatants in all.

ZATA managed to intercept The Moxiga, and a battle between the two arch-rivals commenced in Quinta Forest just ten miles outside the Karfainuaxa boundaries, but The Moxiga prevailled when ZATA retreated. The Moxiga sent off one million to trail the survivors, who had been tracked by The Moxiga's computers. They followed them to the ZATA H.Q in NW Xanka, but the Zanski army stopped them and surrounded them with helicopters, troops and tanks, killing about a thousand before telling them to retreat or they would die too. They did, but had been tracked. A trap was laid in a 70 mile area with mines and bear traps. The hundred thousand or so were captured and sent to Yatta island prison, where the mastermind behind N.Gharrakland's original Karfainuaxa invasion still was.

Meanwhile, the majority of the N.Gharraklandic army and the Moxiga were blowing up villages in the Karfainuaxa desert. A controversial move was made, and the N.Gharraklandic army infiltrated North, South and Central desert city. This is when the Moxiga turned on them, killed some soldiers and made their way home.Zanski infiltrated the cities too, to defend them. In central Desert city, no shots could be fired, as this was a holy city and both countries had a majority of Sulaxists and Gharrakmanists, thus giving it the nickname "The Silent Invasion". As no shots could be fired, they had to negotiate it peacefully. They agreed to keep it within Zanx borders, but have N.Gharrakland hae control over the main Turrakke and North, South and Central desert cities, making the Cities a disputed territory.


Zanx Civil War

(October 9th 1960-October 9th 1963)

In 1960, the ZAN fell and New Gharrakland, Basenjiland & Karfainuaxa gave their land to Zanski. The leader of the Moxiga, Jacob Axim arranged the assassination of Jarak Arma for twenty billion Zansks by the army. A rebellion was made at the scene in Xanka, but the army thwarted this attempt. Zanski was meant to be completely in the hands of Mr. Axim, but the Southern parts of Zanski rebelled. The country was split into the Southern Zanski (Leader:Modi Arma) and Northern Forces, the northern state's capital being Xanka and the South's being Shuza. There were four foreign nations that intervened, the main two being Mationbuds and the Unit Ed States.

The turning point from being a minor military coup to a major civil war was the nuclear bombing of Marisallka by a Pro-northern extremist, where two million people died.

The focus region for the war was in the Jayir region and Ville De Jayir city, where Northern and Southern territories clashed. It repeatedly swapped between the hands of the Pro-Southern and Northern armies, but ultimately rested in the claims of the south.

on July 7th 1963, the pro-southern Unit Ed States drove Northern forces out of Xanka and the western Northern Forces territories. The Northern government moved to Paramus, where they experienced hostility and rebellion in the poor Ghettos.

On July 10th, Southern Zanski changed its name to the Federation of Zanski, under Modi Arma, as it now had some northern territories.

On July 19th, Pro-southern forces moved in for the kill towards Paramus, as it was the last Northern stronghold. It took Federational soldiers eight days (19th-26th July) to reach the city, where the Battle of Paramus commenced. A secret civillian army in Paramus, ten thousand strong, was recruited by the Federation. Weapons were smuggled in to help the Secret Army (SA) destroy the enemy.

Jacob Axim was arrested on July 27th 1961 and was taken to Yatta Island prison For War Criminals. Celebrations were held in Xanka and the UES and Mationbuds attended.

The war ended here, with a Federational Democratic government, but still some UES soldiers looking around for some of their own, lost in action.

Cities

There are three main cities in Zanski:

Xanka is a large capital city under Xankasharamount, a forest-covered mountain which is where the government building stands. When Zanski was established, the Gharakkans were living there and were driven into the northwest. There was great misery and hatred towards the Zanx people and a group of rebels called GATA (Now ZATA) were formed. They now have peace with the Zanx government and Gharrakans are allowed into any part of the city or country. There are large, old, graceful Gharrakan buildings and monuments hidden in the mountains, the most famous being the "Tower Of Misery", built in the time when Zanski invaded the former Gharrakan city.

In Gharrakan, Xanka means Guardian, referring to the gods they thought lived on Xankasharamount.

Ghollomo is a wealthy city built on an old Gharrakan settlement next to the sea. The famous Shokly Market, measuring four square miles, the biggest in Zanski, attracts a huge three million tourists every day. Outside of this Market is the Shokly alleys, which are famous for their expensive resturants and fruit stalls. The Ashad Xai Turakke, the biggest and oldest Gharrakmanist/Sulax place of worship, are also located in the city centre. Ghollomo is also the home to the Zanx Defensive and Offensive Navy.

Shuza is actually the biggest and most densely populated city in Zanski, with around seventeen million legal civillians. Unfortunately it is very poor and is estimated to have a population of one million immigrants living illegally in the city, but these are frequently being relocated to special immigrant hostels and well-paid work at the Uranium mines is being reserved for the immigrators.

religion and ethnics

Religion not an important topic to the atheist government but discrimination is a crime that is closely looked out for and is punishable by a 1000 Zansk fine and three year jail sentance, but the fine is left out if the victim is a convert.

Ethnics is also unimportant and the Zanx president can be any nationality as long as they live in Zanski. The Religious discrimination law also applies, but the sentance is doubled to a 2000 Zansk fine and six year jail sentance.

Here are the Ethnic statistics:

Gharrakan:34%

Zanx:42%

other:34%


And religious:

Gharrakman:11%

Jewish:19%

Christian:5%

Muslim:17%

Other:4%

Atheist/Ignostic:44%

Sulax:4%

Gharrakmanism

The religion of Gharrakmanism is one that is not uncommon in Zanski. It is an old-ish religion that is based on Sulaxism.

The holiest city in Gharrakmanism is Ghollomo, although the head of the Gharrakmanist Turakke is in Central Desert City . The Ashad Xai Turakke (Turakke being the place of worship for a Gharrakmanist and Sulax) In Ghollomo Is the first Turakke built, way back in 400 BCE and the where the first Turakka (Gharrakman and Sulax holy book)lies, but the one that houses the cheifs of Gharrakmanism is the Karfainuaxa Turrakke, in central desert city. They have one supreme godcalled Sayamun (From Sulax Gharrakan Saiman) and a prophet, Gal Amor.

Sulaxism

Sulaxism is a similar religion to Gharrakmanism, but it has a god, called Saiman. It mostly died out with the arrival of the Yuyu Dynasty.

The Sulax also believe in Turrake and Turraka being holy objects and pray 9 times a day.

Military

There are three sectors of the Zanx Military:

Sectors:

===ZOA=== Zanx Offensive army:

navy, air force, Paratroops, Tanks, Espionage, Assassination Team.

===ZDA=== Zanx Defensive Army

Navy, Ground Troops, Tanks, Air Force, Nuclear Force, Espionage Team, Assassination Team.

ZDA is bigger than ZOA, as the Zanx army saying goes, "Defence not Offence!" The late ex-president Merech Zanski once said:"National security is what makes a good country." The Nuclear Force gets its Uranium from ZUT.

and there`s also:

===ZRA=== the Zanx Resistance Army

This is a top secret subject, But the government assure that, should a foreign nation invade, this force will jump into action.


Geography

Zanski is a country of many Geographical properties.eg:

Xanka is a Mountinous volcanic area with rich, fertile soil.This accounts for the rainforest on Xankasharamount, an extinct volcano. This is also how the settlement started with Gharrakkan farmers in the Iron Age, farming rice, corn and maize on the nutritious soil.

Shuza is next to some hills which are rich in uranium. Thus, no building on the hills is allowed.No people are allowed here unless accompanied by at least 30 soldiers. The Raxa river runs through the city from the mountains in the east with hard, warm water.

The Raxa river is a large one that was, by popular theory, made by hot spring water from the east, cutting through the rock. It runs through Shuza.

There is some marshland in Old Zanski county, next to the Raxa river. The Gharrakans call this land the "Deadly Marshes" or Khuamath (koo-a-mat) because in the Zanx Invasion, many Zanx soldiers marched into Khuamath and were sucked down into the soil. There is a large tree that has been wrapped completely in constrictor vines that is meant to be the home of Khua, the Gharrakkan God of Death.

There is a stretch of desert, with an oasis. This Oasis is home to the five Desert Cities. they are actually joined, but the Karfai Territories state political board say that due to tradition, they must remain politically apart.

Education

The Zanx government does its best to make sure that the nation is full of well-educated, smart citizens and does its best whenever an issue comes forth to think of the children sitting at their desks.

If a school is deeply unsatisfied with a child or a child is a truant, the school can send evidence and the child may do the appropriate amount of army service.

School food is also a big part of education. A working brain needs food, especially a growing one and the government makes sure school food is tasty and nutritious. If a large complaint is issued into school food, the government may send special detectives called Education Detectives in. If the E.D's complain, the school can be shut down or the company that makes the food.

Clause of justice

The clause of justice is a clause issued by the late President Merech Zanski stating that all nations that breach the following:


Class A Breaches:

  • Genocide
  • Incitement Of Widespread Racial/Religious Hatred
  • "Unnessisary" Invasion/war
  • Misuse Of Nuclear Weapons
  • Military Siding with a COJ-breaching Nation

...Will be closely watched And/Or be invaded

Class B Breaches

  • Glorification of a COJ-breaching Nation without Military action
  • Being A Dictatorship

...Will be closely watched


Grammar & Language

Zanx is a mix of Gharrakan and English. Gharrakan is completely original and has not changed gramatically for two thousand years.

Here are some tricky vocabulary solutions for Zanx and Gharrakan:

X=Sh,e.g Xanka sounds like Shanker.

Ch=Ch as in Loch Ness.

Shuza is actually the english sound for it. In Gharrakan it is Xuza. Zanx also has a lot of English words as well, for example:

(english words are in bold in the Zanx sentance)

Hello sir!Lovely day today. hope the weather stays like this.

is

Hello Gadamax!Xulata Kazaa Muxken. Huxa the ghadina keeps tuaxa.

And in Gharrakan:
