Seian

The Empire of Seian is a small dense nation located in the Southern Osean Peninsula, sharing borders with Beiarusia, Leasath and a small strip with Brasalium. Adamas lies to the East of Seian, before the waters stretch into the expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, with the Aurelian Sea laying to the south of the Empire.

A shadow of its former glory, Seian is a mixture of modern high-rise buildings packed with people in its dense population centers, to large communities of wooden houses accommodating farmers and villagers living along its many valleys and hills. The Seianese Currency, the Sen, is named after the spiritual belief of divine energy which blessed the people of Seian throughout the millennia.

Five main cultures make up the population of Seian, and the country has been an industrial and agricultural leader in the Osean peninsula despite its size. Seian's unique culture and arts, combined with innovative forms of entertainment and its beautiful geography makes it an attractive tourist destination for those seeking a break from the bustling city life.

Seian's resource rich geography contributed massively to its ever growing industry, with a focus on cheap and reliable automobiles and electronic products a core component of its exports. Agricultural products like staple foodstuff, silk, tea, beef and industrial goods like metals and rare ores make up a portion of its exports as well. Seian's major partners are Dorusia, Adamas, Aurelia, Usea and Leasath, while it maintained a strong hold in the Osean market with its cheap automobiles.

Foundation (c.600s)
A union of clans living among the mountains and plains of Seian formed through the prowess of Sendai Katayama,a warlord of the Heian Clan. Controlling the plains of Heian and through the use of threats and subterfuge, his enemies understood that it was nearly impossible to dislodge them through attrition, and chose to unite under his banner and his promises of glory through invasion,

Imperial Age (900s-1600)
Sweeping north, the Seianese horde managed to conquer the territories of modern day Beiarusia, securing sources of raw materials before turning west. The Seianese Horde encountered resistance in the dukedoms of Brasalium, and a series of wars broke out between the two nations.
