Sultanate of Osmany

A sultanate situated in the the northern territories of Chorene, established by Osman Yazi, son of Elyria II Yazi, during the Dissolution War. Their flag is a chevrony, russet and gold.
==Culture==
Osmanids have a reputation for hot-bloodedness. Unlike the other Chorenese Sultanates, whose fashion involves loose silks, the climate of Osmany favours warmer clothes and the locals prefer to wear layered robes with leather and fur trimmings, leading to a more humble appearance than their southern neighbours. However, their armour is often beautifully enamelled and inlaid with copper and silver, and painted blood-red.
==Economy==
The main exports of Osmany are madder root, which is used for red dye, iron, pearls, fish, and coral. The Geyik region is also the largest honey producer in the Chorenese. For many of the towns in the country, however, fishing is their major source of income. 
==Administrative Divisions==
The sultanate is divided into three Vizirates, each ruled by a Vizier: 
*Ankor, ruled by Osman Yazi from the city of Kakar
*Tashan ruled by Devlian Barss from the city of Tashan.
*Sarkosa, ruled by Yusuf Delarr from the city of Belen.
Each Vizirate is divided into a number of Khaganates, but Osman has not granted any of his subjects the traditional title of Khan, instead choosing to name them Eskiers, which holds the same rank of power, akin to a baron, but is not an inheritable title.
==Recent History==
After the Coup on Orak, Osman Yazi rode straight north and took control of the North. He then began to secure a border at the Akahn River to halt the encroaching expansion of his sister Mustafaya's realm. In late 1430, Osman tried to loosen his sister’s grasp. He crossed the Akahn with his army and began to plunder the region, but Mustafya’s army achieved a great victory against the Osmanids, capturing Yuregir, the general of the Osmanids. Yuregir declared for the Aranids instead, ceding his lands north of the Akahn to Mustafya, but Osman struck him of his titles and instated new governance in Yuregir’s lands.   
Both the southern and northern banks of the river became a disputed frontier zone between the two forming sultanates until a frail ceasefire was struck in early 1431, though skirmishes continue on both sides.
