The Socialist Federal Republic of Chianski, also referred to as Chianski SFR, and most commonly referred to as Chianski, is a Federal Marxist-Leninist One Party Socialist State located on 10 tropical islands with 10 states spread across the volcanic-coral island chain island in the Central Concordian Ocean. The largest island, Telver, has almost all of its landmass covered by the capitol city of Telver, which is the largest city in Chianski and the main cultural and commercial center. Despite having no borders with other nations, Chianski's closest neighbors are South Hills to the east, Adumara and Astistan to the north, and Wikichang to the south. Chianski is currently a member of the FPA.
The ecosystems of Chianski are very uniform but ecologically diverse, with all of the islands being either tropical rain-forest or tropical grasslands. The islands host a wide array of coral reefs and shoals and each island is described as being a "microcosm" of numerous environments. The highest point in Chianski is Mount Tonava which reaches a height of 134 meters above sea level. Chianski has over 75 protected parks and preserves spread around the nation which protect numerous ecologically sensitive reefs and lands. Multiple species of animals are endemic to Chianski and the islands are host to numerous migratory birds throughout the year. The government has taken numerous measures to protect the environment and in recent years has begun to spend millions the preservation of the islands natural landscape.
First coming into its own as a proper nation state at around 1950, with the unification of the Islands, Chianski is now a world leader in public transport and public education. All healthcare, housing and education is free in Chianski. The income per-capita is around $7,244 Chianskian Dollars with little to no difference between the highest and lowest levels of society thanks to extremely punitive income taxes and strict government overwatch. Private enterprise is totally illegal, with all business being publically or government owned. Media in Chianski is controlled and censored by the government and the education system promotes the ideology of Marxist-Leninist Communism. Chianski is considered a post-modern state technologically wise.
History
Original Inhabitants
Vulpine & Humans settled the islands that would later be called Chianski around the year 1000 AD/CE, when nomadic seafarers ventured into the area. The original inhabitants built forts and other identifiable ruins on the islands, some of which are still partially intact.
Various land forces came upon the islands in the 17th and 18th centuries, but it was the Humans who were the first to permanently settle in the territory and with the arrival of Vulpine missionaries in 1830 the population was mostly converted to Vayan Catholicism. On 5 April 1832, the missionaries asked for protection after a rebellion of a part of the local population and as a result, multiple kingdoms were established across the islands.
