## Geography

### Physical Geography

The physical geography mostly consists of a few different types of environments. The largest of which being the Volskoy Taiga. The Kaosic landscape is dominated by this taiga, with rocky soil and hilly landscapes, except for a region known as the Kolbyl Belt, an area in the Kaosic interior with flatter lands and relatively fertile soils due to higher temperatures in summer and winter thus leading to lest permafrost in the soil, and thus, a lot of Kaosic agriculture is based in this region during the summer months. However, not as much agriculture is present here, with the vast majority of it being centered near the Ploskiy Steppe, between the Razdel, Vetka, and Obshirvka mountains. In the northern most part of Kaos, called Vorkutia, the Severo Tundra dominates most of the landscape. A large lake also lies between the Veliky and Volug mountains, called lake Vstrecha. All across the Kaosic landscape, mountains are quite present.

#### Mountains

The least extreme of the mountains being the Razdel Mountains, that separate Kaos from the Corean lands. The Razdels are a chain of relatively short (in comparison to other mountain chains) and thin chain of mountains. The highest point in the mountains being 6,432 feet (~1,960 meters) in elevation at Mount Yakim.

There is then the Vetka mountains, a branch off of the smaller Razdels. The Vetka mountains stretch all the way into Noyvelakaos. The exterior of the Vetka mountains is comparable to the Razdels, with much lower, and less rocky mountains compared to others. The interior of the Vetka mountains are insanely high and deadly, with the highest point being 14,440 feet (4400 Meters) in elevation, deep in the interior. The exterior of the Vetka mountains is more sparsely populated than other areas, with a few notable exception like Vasitsk, and Dzychna, whilst the interior is almost completely barren.

The Veliky Mountains are a large chain of mountains located south of Lake Vstrecha, the largest lake in Kaos and one of the deepest lakes in the world. The Veliky mountains have little vegetation, and is dominated by rock. The Veliky mountains are very dangerous to humans, and thus very barren, with only ~12,000 People, mostly in small villages. The largest town in the mountains being Velikgrad, which has a population around 4,300 People, located in a valley near the outer parts of the mountains. The tallest peak here being Mount Yurchik, at around 21,073 Feet in elevation, the tallest point in Kaos.

The Obshirvka mountains are an even larger chain of mountains, with very similar traits to the Veliky mountains, only with a higher average elevation (despite the larger peak being in the Veliky mountains) The city of Vuzhgrad is situated between the Obshirvka mountains and the Razdels, hence why it has usually been a difficult place to get to, being situated in a large valley between the two mountain chains. The highest peak in the Obshirvka Mountains is Mount Ulan, standing at 19,562 feet in elevation.

The next mountains are the Volug Mountains. This is a small chain of high and deadly mountains. The vegetation in the interior is barren, as well as most of the life. The highest point here is Mount Bokhdankov towering at 20,478, the second highest point in Kaos.

Next chain of mountains is the Svorkov Mountains. The Svorkov mountains is a collection of mountain chains that used to be considered separate ranges, until the name of the Svorkov Mountains was given to these mountains. Said mountains are much lower in elevation than many other of the mountains, but are still formidable none the less. The mountains are located in the far north of Kaos in the Severov Tundra. The highest peak in the Svorkov Mountains is Mount Vaylan, standing at 12,582 feet in elevation.

Next are the Vokherian mountains. There is much more Variation in the Vokherian mountains which are based around the Vokherian Basin. These mountains have become synonymous with Tevika, as Tevika is based around the Vokherian basin, and most of the Vokherian mountains are located in Tevika. The highest peak being Mount Vakhita standing at 16,107 feet in elevation.

The next mountains have their status as an individual mountain chain much disputed. Many believe the motives are political, but most agree that the Vasi mountains are the next chain of mountains. Located in the Vasigrad Peninsula, these mountains make the peninsula almost completely uninhabitable except for parts near the coast, and valley's in the interior. The highest point here being 18,572 feet in elevation at Mount Adrik.

### Climate

The Kaosic climate has a reputation for being very cold, and for the most part, a lot of it is true to an extent.

## Early History and origins

The Kaosics, as did many of the slavs, can have origins that are traced back to the Molosievan Kaos. The civilization of the Molosievan Kaos lasted for a long time, and many humans spread across the areas all across Vetu. In 1156, Retkov was built, and shortly after, the Tsardom of Retkovya was formed, the first official nation that can be traced back to Kaos.

## Early expansion

Expansion started around around 1336, which radiated out from Retkov. The Slavic Peoples of Yevkrinia and Kaos were still very close, and thus encorporation of said city states, such as Molosiev, (Molosyiv) and Khystovsk, were incorporated without struggle or rebellion, as were the cities of mainly Kaosic peoples.

Confrontation did occasionally occur however, such as in the city of Prybyne, in which the local ruler of the city state resisted the Retkovyan Expansion in Borodo (Bordysche) resisted the expansion in 1359.

The conflict lasted around 2 months, with much of the city being devastated, and the rulers forced to abdicate after being captured then tortured.

Expansion continued with little resistance, except for minor skirmishes here and there, most of them lasting only a few weeks at most.

## Steppe Wars

Expeditions had been sent into the Ploskiy Steppe around 1532. It had been discovered that the soil was very fertile, and that the climate was great for growing crops, such as wheat and cotton. In 1541, Vasily the Great...

## Conflicts with Alsan and Demenia

### Buildup to the Kasso Demenian Wars

In 1767, Demenia gained it's independence. In 1789, the Demenian government officially issued that it was it's right to expand towards the north into the Kaosic lands, a right given to them by god. Kaos -especially after the war of 1761- was not willing to give up their land to the Demenians, seeing Slavic lands in the south already being occupied by Demenia.

Tensions were only further escalated over the dispute of lots of Noyvelakaosic land, which both sides claimed. The Kaosic side said that they gained control over the territory via the actions taken under the Prokopiy Acts, whilst the Demenians claimed it because of the Alsanian colonies of New Acton, New Shercester, and New Northon.

On September 8 1798, The Kaosic Empire declared war on Demenia, with the intent of liberating the slavs whom were oppressed under Demenian rule, and cementing their control over the disputed territory. The Kaosicss quickly attempted to advance on the Noyvelakaosic front, suffering heavy losses, though making advances southwards.

Offensive operations were also carried out on the Yevkrinian front west of the Kovic mountains, with yet again heavy losses, yet sizable advances southwards.

The advance southwards into Demenia continued, and the Demenians put up little resistance. Eventually, the Kaosics reached New Wristol, however, they were unable to take the city after fierce Demenian resistance. On December 21st, the treaty of Nobron was signed, ending the First Retkovite-Demenian War.

### Interwar period

The treaty established the boundary between the two, being simply a line drawn on a map, known as the line of 1798, however, the two parties disagreed on where the line was despite signing the treaty, causing disputes. The Kaosics continued with their philosophy brought on by the Prokopiy Acts.

Both sides wanted to completely eliminate the other, and continue their expansion. Yet both sides knew a war would be terrible for both sides. The Demenians could not win against the overwhelming amount of Kaosics, whilst the Kaosics had to throw many men just to break through Demenian lines.

Yet everything changed in 1802, when the industrial revolution had made it to Demenia. This allowed them to rapidly produce equipment for their war machine. Many in the government began considering a second invasion, that would allow them to take control of Kaos much easier. The line of 1798 established by the treaty of Nobron was still disputed, and conflict was soon to unfold.

In 1806, Demenian congress passed the "Manifestation act," more commonly known as "Manifest Destiny," which declared that Demenia held the right to expand into the Slavic lands of Kaos. Demenia's mass industrialization gave a common message that the new Demenian army was invincible, and could not be stopped, even by the thousands of Kaosic soldiers they'd face.

On May 17th, 1807, Demenia sent 6,000 Troops into the disputed area, and Kaosic soldiers, seeing their territorial integrity being violated, fired upon the Demenian soldiers.

On the 19th of May, Demenia officially issued a Declaration of War on the Kaosic Empire.

The Demenians made sure to invade first before any retaliation could occur.
