The Hamanian Empire is a sovereign state comprised of territory in Yasteria, Borea and Itur. The country has a large area covering almost 3 million square kilometres. The country has a variety of landscapes such as semi arid regions with succulent vegetation, or dry grassland, temperate rain deciduous forests, cold steppes, mountainous regions with an Alpine climate. The nation has a wide variety of animals and plants, some which are endemic to the environments in which they are found. In some areas animals and plants are threatened by habitat destruction, climate change and poaching, but there are programs to preserve this wildlife. The empire has a coastline that spans over two major waterways: the Borean Sea and Gulf of Itur.
It is believed that human nomads migrated to the Yasterian portion of the empire around 1,000 years BCE. They travelled in large groups called caravans with strong hierarchies and distinct identities, competing with one another for access to water, pasture and the migrating herds. Around 500 years BCE, the first settlements began to be built with a leader. They engaged in trade with other settlements and sometimes engaged in war over oases and trade routes. The first major city ever built was Komodu around 200 CE and began sending mariners to trade goods across other lands around 500 CE. The city was invaded around 700 CE, but the impact of its civilisation on the art and science of the rest of the Hamanite people was substantial. Around 1,000 CE, the original city of Komodu fell and the Kingdoms of Kahiru in the south, Wawa along the coast, and Giza in the east were established. They engaged in constant wars and changing alliances over territory and resources. Around 1,100 CE the Kingdoms of Wawa was invaded by the Kingdom of Kahiru and Giza was subjugated under King Hama I. Around 1,300 CE, the Kingdoms of the Hamanites were invaded by the Islamic Empire. Their pagan religions were supplanted and replaced with Islam. Around 1,400 CE, the rule of the Islamic Empire was driven out and the Kingdom of Hama was formed. The Hamanite sect, the Abrahamic sect evolved into a fully fledged religion under the rule of King Bamu around 1,500 CE. Around 1,600 CE, the Hamanians invaded and settled eastern Borea, displacing and assimilating the native population. Around 1,700 CE, the Hamanians invaded southern Itur and fought against an alliance of Lupine nations led by Laiatan.
The empire is an absolute empire under the King of Hama. The King relies on the extensive technocratic bureaucracy and complicity of subnational rulers to enforce the law and keep the empire unified. Although the King has the power to issue decrees, local customs and statutes have the force of law in many jurisdictions which have significant autonomy. The Hamanian Empire retains diplomatic and economic relations with many nations of northern Yasteria, Itur and Borea. The country has a large military, particularly a large navy that protects it from attack and maintains the rigid hand of its rulers. The Hamanite people from the majority ethnic group, having spread throughout the empire, with the Hamanese language forming the lingua franca and the language of the government. There are various minority groups such as lupines, giants, and ursines who maintain limited areas of autonomy over some of their native lands. The majority religion is Abrahamism but there are some people who practice Islam, who belong to the Mahitou religion and other folk beliefs. The empire has a population of approximately 70 million people spread over three timezones.
The nation has an economic output of 1,26 trillion kiribs and an average income of 18,000 kiribs per person. The nation has strong science and technology. The country has a well developed infrastructure and cities whose people enjoy similar lifestyles to the people of Aurora. The rural areas are underserved and some areas are inaccessible. The nation has a diverse range of energy sources, but electricity has not been delivered to all citizens. The empire has a substantial intelligentsia and mercantile class who enjoy limited influence, but the landed aristocrats retain statutory advantages and control vast natural resources. The nation suffers from inequality, unemployment is fairly high and poverty is rampant among minorities, and some laws place people in virtual servitude, but the country is a net lender, a major exporter and has substantial reserves of gold that back its currency, the dahab.
