Map of the Unified Tribes of Chiyesa

The Unified Tribes of Chiyesa were a civilization in Dimension S-2020 in between the United Avian Kingdom and the Knights of Donnersmarck. Chiyesa is known for its very unstable government which triggered many crises throughout history. Chiyesa was thought to have been lost to time after the Great Collapse, but the Library managed to salvage remnants of S-2020 and transport them to S-2012.

## History

The Unified Tribes of Chiyesa banded together aproximatily 200 years PUC in response to a great enemy from the North. Originally it was made up of only two groups of people, but as the Great Enemy conquered more lands, the refugees escaping their wrath fled to the sanctuary of Chiyesa - There are now 11 tribes within the federation, each represented by a chibothraje on the top-left corner of the flag. A great wall was once built for the people’s protection, but it has fallen into disrepair as the people no longer fear an enemy. In December of 40AUC Chairman Ma’plįc became head of the federation, starting the decline of the Unified Tribes.

In the early days of Chairman Ma’plįc, things were going well for Chiyesa and relations with foreign nations were relatively good. For example, after Chiyesa allowed missionaries from the Church of Eli into their land, the Pontificate of Neo Boreopolis sent a large gift consisting of stonebrick to the Unified Tribes. Chiyesa then used these stonebricks to build a central temple. Chiyesa joined the International Community upon its founding in January of 43AUC, however not long after, it would test the International Community and its ability to keep the peace in the 26 Minute War.

The 26 Minute War broke out after a border conflict between Chiyesa and the Knights of Donnersmarck escalated into a full scale war. Chiyesa tried expanding its eastern claims but claimed land that belonged to the Knights in the process. The Wallaceian Empire came down to protect their colony and friction at the border eventually led to a skirmish. Several Chiyesan soldiers were killed in the early stages of the war, and when Chiyesa lured a Wallaceian peace delegation into a trap, the Republic of the Isles of Birillum and the Kingdom of Desonia joined the war against Chiyesa, ultimately leading to its utter defeat. Forced to sign the Treaty of New Arcburg, Chiyesa suffered a humiliating defeat and was forced to give up its claim.

In the aftermath of the 26 Minute War, Chairman Ma’plįc became completely unstable and ran from one international incident into another. In an effort to somewhat stabilize the region, the Pontificate was debating whether or not to extend an official guarantee of independence to the Unified Tribes in an effort to dissuade any nation from declaring war upon them, but after being insulted by the Chairman in a speech, the motion failed 7-5 in the Council. The Chairman accussed the Nations of the East of using the IC as a tool for domination over the west. The same day of the speech, Chiyesa also denounced the Free Principality of Tomopolis, further leading the nation down the path of confrontation with the east. Chiyesa eventually collectivized all assets within the nation, triggering a trade embargo from Neo Boreopolis, Tomopolis and Desonia. The Unified Tribes reacted with a trade embargo against these nations and insulted King Slan by calling him "a hunk of rotten flesh" that will "be gone soon". Even though a formal apology was issued later on to Neo Boreopolis, things further escalated when a squadron of airborn soldiers from the Empire of Wineghem attacked Chiyesa in October of 43AUC, triggering the Eastern Coalition War against Chiyesa. The skirmish was brief and led to a temporary restraint of the Unified Tribes in the International Community. However, it did not stop Chairman Ma’plįc's unstable foreign politics. In the aftermath of the Coalition War, Chiyesa formed an alliance with the Republic of the Isles of Birillum.

In May of 44AUC, the Unified Tribes accused followers of the Elinite Faith of inciting a riot and destroying an idol. As a result, the religion was banned and its followers persecuted. High ranking bishops within the Pontificate immediately called for a crusade against the Unified Tribes and were supported by Emperor Obama of the Wallaceian Empire. The horrific actions of the Chiyesa even led to the end of their alliance with Birillum. A meeting of the IC was called and an independent investigation was set up to clarify the situation. As the Unified Tribes could not provide any proof of the incident, they were humiliated in the IC and were forced to revert their ban in October of 44AUC. As a sign of good faith, the Pontificate ended its embargo against the Chiyesa and a new Diocese was established within the Unified Tribes: the Diocese of Chege Itų with the Chiyesan Elinites electing Yas Otoahhastis as their first Bishop.

In 45AUC, the Unified Tribes reaffirmed their alliance with Birillum and formed an alliance with their neighbours, the United Avian Kingdom. A railway was constructed between the two and also connected Chiyesa to the Spawn area. In June of 45AUC, the Principe of Tomopolis disappeared only to turn up in August in Chiyesa, leading a long lost northern tribe called the Tribe of Rugri. His stay in Chiyesa was brief however, as he soon disappeared once again. In December of 46AUC, a group of heretic Elinites from Chiyesa, led by the Seer Maplic, travelled south and founded the Theocratic State of Ahman. During the Great War, the Chiyesa fought alongside their former enemies, Birillum and the Wallaceian Empire, but were defeated. After the war, Chairman Ma’plįc was overthrown and deposed and a brief period of peace and prosperity arrived only to be ended by the Great Collapse.

After the Great Collapse, survivors who happened to be present in the Pontificate during the event, gathered support and funding from the nations of S-2012 to found their own nation. In 961 AA (S-2012 date), they founded New Chiyesa. When the Unified Tribes themselves were transported to S-2012 in 1144 AA, only a few minutes had passed in the minds of the Chiyesans, while the diaspora in S-2012 had already gone through several generations. This caused a minor temporal shock, but also new diplomatic opportunities. Despite initial hostilities towards the Pontificate, the Unified Tribes eventually participated in the Frozyland Accords of 1145 and subsequently became a member of the United Nations.
