Xiani-Undōsa

The Masetzu'an Federation of Xiani-Undōsa was a federation that spanned across multiple continents and worlds. Xiani-Undōsa was originally founded by member states Xemalatau and Tymarat. At it's peak, Xiani-Undōsa spanned Sørligste, Rathnir, Nieden, Rathnir, and Onthukhan, Eldham. Just prior to dissolution, however, Xiani-Undōsa had lost it's territories in all continents except Sørligste. All former members of Xiani-Undōsa include: Xemalatau, Tymarat, Icaros, and Abbadyyenau.
== Etymology ==
Xiani-Undōsa derives from two root words. The first word being "xiani", which means "united", or in this context, "united by". The second word derives from founding and leading house of the state, House Undōsa. The exact origin of House Undōsa is unknown, but it is believed to be a group formed over 100 years ago by a Masetzu'an Elder. The rest of the nation's name refers to the governmental structure and origin of the nation, being a federation formed by the Masetzu'an people. In full, the name means "The Masetzu'an federation united by (House) Undōsa"
== Government ==
Xiani-Undōsa was led by the supreme leader, the Suōtanii. The Suōtanii, also referred to as the Chancellor, naturally was the most important role in the nation. The second-in-command, the Kÿōtanii, used to be reserved for the most important religious figure as well as the direct "right-hand man" to the Suōtanii. The Kÿōtanii role still exists today in Masetzu'an and Kÿōnite culture. The nation had a Parliament composed of leaders of political parties and important territorial leaders, as well as mayors which were leadership or assistant leadership of towns. Members of Parliament and Mayors expressed some political power, however all decisions could be overridden by the Suōtanii or Kÿōtanii.

* Declaring war on any foreign nation unless attacked directly.
* Assisting foreign nations militaristically.
Due to this oath, Xiani-Undōsa typically offered financial support in exchange for protection to other nations. This oath, prior to the dissolution, proved to be successful for Xiani-Undōsa and helped maintain peace in Sørligste.

=== Prehistory ===
==== The Hamlet of Flumenia ====
Much of the information about the origins of the Masetzu'an people and the Hamlet of Flumenia have been lost to the sands of time. What we do know is that the Hamlet of Flumenia was a small nation in Syltör which for a large part was unrecognized by it's neighbors. The Hamlet of Flumenia had a single town, being Flumenia. The residents, although having some religious diversity, for the most part practiced a single religion called the Theos of Kÿō. The residents did trade and brought in settlers in secret to avoid being removed by their neighbors, something that later turned out to be their demise.
==== The Great Bardonian Exodus ====
The Hamlet of Flumenia was seen by some as a squatter claim. Most importantly, however, the Empire of Bardonia did not recognize them as a legitimate sovereign entity. The Hamlet of Flumenia was aware of this, and took to trading in secret to avoid attracting the attention of the Bardonians. However, one day a Bardonian officer learned of a secret trade route between Bardonia and Flumenia and became angered. The Bardonian officer came to Flumenia and gave them an ultimatum, either join the Empire, or be removed. The Flumenians, valuing their freedom and not wanting to adhere to the Dandelist religion, gathered their items and left their homeland in what is now known as the Great Bardonian Exodus. The Flumenians headed east, towards the region that is now called Tymarat.
==== Dorostadt ====

== Alliances ==
The Masetzu'an Federation of Xiani-Undōsa previously created special "alliances" with groups of nations or individual nations that they held very positive ties to. These were typically just honorary agreements to recognize the connection between nations.
=== Masetzu'an Federation of Xiani-Undōsa - Holy Empire of Gertonia Alliance ===
Formed January 3rd, 2022. Xiani-Undōsa and Gertonia have shared a lot of history and culture together. On the 3rd of January, 2022 Gertonia vassalized Tymarat, a former member state of the Federation, with Xiani-Undōsa's permission. A month later, on February 9th, 2022, Xiani-Undōsa fully seceded Tymarat to Gertonia. These actions secured a very close political and cultural bind between the nations, with many Masetzu'ans still living in the historic city of Dorostadt today.
=== Masetzu'an Federation of Xiani-Undōsa - Goblin Empire of Askonia Alliance ===
Formed February 10th, 2022. The Goblin Empire of Askonia and Xiani-Undōsa were friends for many years. The Suōtanii at the time, Senior Undōsa the Second, is a Goblin and resident of Goblin_Town. As such, the Goblin Empire of Askonia was always willing to lend a helping hand to Xiani-Undōsa, and the Masetzu'an Federation of Xiani-Undōsa was always willing to lend a helping hand to the Goblin Empire of Askonia.
