Kanslavia Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) History Kanslavia started out as tribes people, nomads, following herds of native yaks around the mountains they called home. Yet not everything was peaceful. Other tribes moved in from all directions. The tribes settled the land, built citites, yet still continued to fight. One of the most famous of the tribes, The Grotani had established their capital of Grotan amongst Kanslavia's highest mountains; and another tribe, had settled their capital of Krylov long before the Grotani at the foot of their mountains. These two are most famous for their drawn out wars lasting for hundreds of years or more. Though not everything was bad in the early days. The tribes shared the same religon and same language. Two more tribes known as the Caela and the Cagil settled their own cities in the northern forests. They lived in relative peace and developed technologically putting them ahead of the other tribes. There were countless other tribes lost by history and helped along by Soviet takeover in the 30's. By 1941 The Soviet Union has owned all of the tribes's lands. They had renamed it Kanslavia. Kan, a native word meaning native and slav, meaning slave. The Communists we're not met without opposition though. Most of the citizens protested the soviets with a passion even to the point of suicide bombings. The Soviet's we're eventually overthrown by a renegade leader by the name of Joseph Tillman in the 80's. At the time a rebel with a drug addiction he eventually lead the populace to rise up and take down the Soviet leader appointed to oversee their region, ending the slavery at the hands on the communists. After the rebellion Tillman set up a Social Democracy. Since then Tillman has kicked his drug habbit and has been reelected three times, though as he nears old age he's opted to resign by the Summer of 2007.
