Slot: C11
Kutsan as a nation has existed in various forms for roughly 2,000 years. Before its brief time as a Carinian territory, Kutsani society was primarily based on reciprocity; in exchange for labor, the Emperor provided access to land, food, and drink. After gaining independence, however, Kutsan adapted their system; this is around the time when the current Kutsan borders were established on the mainland. Over the next several hundred years, the Kutsan Empire would expand. Territories overseas were allowed to remain independent, but they were required to pay tribute and send troops to fight for the Empire. The Kutsan Empire, officially the Sublime State of Kutsan, reached its height in 1607. Over the next 200 years, Kutsan would decline in power until the threat of revolution became too much and, in exchange for peace, the Emperor was forced to allow for the creation of a Royal Congress in 1810. Kutsan would stabilize for a while, but the newly created democracy was slanted heavily in favor of wealthier Kutsani people, and by the 20th century Kutsan had become a corrupt and relatively weak power. Economic instability would lead to political radicalism, creating the first major wave of popularity for socialist politics since 1810. Unfortunately, Fascism also found its footing around this time. In 1922, the final Emperor was killed by fascist agents in a false flag attack which gave party founder/leader and Royal Chancellor Kosem Osman the opportunity to restrict civil liberties and suspend congress until further notice. Under Osman, the military was built up and state security was prioritized. Dissenters often disappeared without a trace. Due to this harsh crackdown, resistance efforts and anti-Osman sympathizers were widespread but had to stay one step ahead of the State Security Bureau. Additionally, because dissenters came from many backgrounds (albeit almost entirely far left), the growing resistance network had to work together despite their many ideological differences. This led to a rebel movement that was both highly adept at tradecraft and capable of presenting a unified front made up of various unique political groups. These qualities can be seen in the modern Kutsan government and military. The Kutsan civil war was short and bloody, lasting from 1944 to 1945. Since the end of hostilities, the newly created Kutsan Social Republic has worked to finally bring about a democratic, fair, and just society for its people.

National Spirits
| Spirit | Notes |
| People of the Sun [+] | Kutsan has a long history, and has been building cities for a thousand years. As a result, much of the land (especially on the coast) is highly terraformed. |
| Township Rebellion [+] | Thanks to a bottom-up organization of government, the opportunities for corruption or wealth inequality to form are minimized. |
| Ashes in the Fall [-] | Kutsan's homeland may have never actually been invaded by foreign enemies during the War, but the combination of a bloody revolution and strategic bombing means that there is a not insignificant amount of destroyed infrastructure. |
| Snakecharmer [-] | Many high ranking members of the previous administration have managed to evade capture, and remain at large despite the OSI's best efforts. Intelligence indicates that they are planning something big. |
| Voice of the Voiceless [+/-] | Kutsan has excellent protections for workers, and heavily encourages unionization. However, this may dissuade some corporations from doing business here. |
| Born as Ghosts [+] | They were good, but we were better. Kutsan's Office of Strategic Intelligence is a direct descendant of the rebel coalition's various spy rings, and as a result is very experienced in subterfuge and counterintelligence against a numerically superior foe. |
| Know Your Enemy [+/-] | Kutsan has firsthand experience in what happens when reactionary ideas are taken to their logical conclusion, and is therefore prepared to prevent these mistakes from happening again both at home and abroad.. |
| How I Could Just Kill a Man [-] | While the fascists are long gone, they are still a stain on Kutsan's international reputation in many places. |
National Language
Rimayan (rim-ay-ahn), a broken form of Quechua (The spoken language of the Incan Empire) with elements of English, Arabic, Turkish, and Spanish. An ancient language, Rimaya has evolved significantly over the course of Kutsan’s existence. Ancient Rimayan is unique in that it is not written, only spoken. Since the Ancient Kutsan Empire’s economy was almost entirely barter, there was no need for written language. After becoming a tributary of the Carinian Empire in 807 CE, Rimayan evolved to include aspects of the Carinian language and became written. Historians believe that this was largely due to Carinian’s demands to send written reports updating the Empire of Kutsan’s economic progress. These reports were written in the Carinian Language, but the alphabet was applied to Rimayan as well. Modern Rimayan, despite being based on a relatively unique language, is very easy to learn due to it incorporating many elements of other languages. As such, people learning Rimayan are likely to recognize grammar rules from their native language. Classical Rimayan, also known as Original Pronunciation Rimayan, has largely died out. Its only speakers in the modern day are scholars, hobbyists, and historians.Capital City
Karakusa - “Almighty Fortress” (ancient Rimayan). Settled as far back as the 10th century BCE, The region that would eventually become Karakusa maintained a population of around 15,000 until 947 CE when it was chosen by the Emperor as the site of his new capital. Karakusa was originally a master planned city, but as it reaches its thousand year anniversary the city is now a mixture of old and new; it’s not uncommon for a modern Kutsan citizen to go to work in a factory constructed less than two decades ago, and then spend their lunch at a tavern that has been operated by the same family for ten generations. Karakusa is built on a large peninsula on the west coast of Kutsan, situated next to the entrance of the Karahatu bay. Karakusa had a population of 10 million in 1947.
Population
National Population of 183 million. Roughly 80% of this population lives within 50 kilometers of the ocean. Kutsan has a very diverse population, both due to its time as an empire resulting in substantial immigration and its policy towards immigration postwar. The vast majority of people live in cities, but those who remain in rural areas generally live in very small towns and villages spread throughout the jungle.Government
The Kutsan government can best be described as a representative democracy at the federal level, but a democratic confederation at the local level. The legislative branch of government contains only one house: the Congress of Kutsan. Each Province (the administrative units that Kutsan is divided up into) has a default of two representatives, but for every additional 100,000 people the Province gains an additional representative. Districts within the Provinces, where each representative is elected from, are based on municipal areas in order to hopefully avoid gerrymandering. Representatives are up for election every two years (These elections are staggered, so half the congress is up for election every year). Representatives can hold office for a maximum of 10 years. There are 520 seats in congress.
At the local level a community (depending on population size this could be a village, district, city, etc.) elects a community council. This council exists to interpret and execute the policies put forth by the population of the community, which are brought to the council via community meetings. This system is similar to the one that Rojava uses in real life. These community meetings tend to be lively, and it is a point of pride among Kutsanis to attend. Note: Kutsani refers both to the ethnic group which historically has occupied the territory of Kutsan, and also any citizen of Kutsan. When I say Kutsani in this document, I am almost always referring to the citizens of Kutsan regardless of their cultural or ethnic background.
This local community council system exists up to the province level.
Current parties and their seats:
KNU - Kutsan National Union (Fascist) - OUTLAWED
KVP - Kutsan Vanguard Party (Marxist-Leninist) - 1 (may be outlawed, ongoing debate)
KLP - Kutsan Labour Party (Democratic Socialist) - 121
SDP - Social Democratic Party (Social Democrat) - 58
CL - Confederation of Labor (Syndicalist) - 121
KAP - Kutsan Anarchist Party (Anarchist) - 78
KFP - Kutsan Freedom Party (Market Socialist) - 102
KCP - Kutsan Communist Party (Communist) - 20
KWP - Kutsan Workers Party (Communist) - 19
The head of government is actually a collection of representatives of all political parties in the government which have at least 20 seats in Congress. Essentially, instead of having one prime minister, there is a council of PMs with each one having been voted on via a direct vote of all registered members of that political party nationally. This council is referred to as the Governing Council.
The head of state is the President, who is also voted on via popular vote nationally. The President has relatively little power compared to other heads of state, with their main priorities being to direct national policy and represent Kutsan internationally.
The Kutsan Supreme Court is made up of 10 Justices, who are proposed by the GC and then voted on by Congress. The Justices have a 5 year term limit. The judicial branch of government also includes a system of lower district courts, as well as a court of appeals. There is one district court, and one appeals court, for each Province.
Economy
Kutsan has a broadly socialist economy. Worker co-ops are the main way that businesses are organized, and many industries are state owned (specifically those which tend towards natural monopoly, such as power and rail). Businesses which need funding apply for funding from credit unions, or try to get government grants. This ensures that the company’s workers maintain control of their workplace, and keeps the economy relatively stable by minimizing speculation. Community Councils vote on distribution of government grants, but for specific industries requiring specialized knowledge a panel of at least five professionals in that field must be assembled.Kutsan has a progressive income tax system, with tax brackets going up to 95% (for income over one million dollars a year).

Government Centralization
Provide information about the level of centralization in your nation’s government. Describe the distribution of power & decision-making authority between the federal government and any regional or local entities. Discuss the extent to which central control is exercised over various aspects of governance, such as policy-making, taxation, law enforcement, & more. Explain any mechanisms or frameworks in place to balance central authority with regional autonomy. Additionally, if there are historical or cultural factors influencing the degree of centralization, feel free to include them. This information will help us understand how your nation’s government is structured and how different levels of government interact, which is relevant for potential events involving shifts of governance & administration.The government is very decentralized, in that each Province is given significant autonomy but must meet standards of living, equality, education, etc. set out by the Kutsan Congress. Essentially, power is devolved but the Federal government still has final say.
There is a constitution protecting the fundamental rights of citizens and ensuring that the government works towards true libertarian socialism, but the document is expected to receive updates every ten years.
Kutsan was a monarchy, then a liberal democracy presided over by a monarch, and then a fascist dictatorship. As such, the current socialist government is very concerned with preventing authoritarianism from returning.
Government Cohesion
National cohesion is relatively strong, but this could change in the future; The government is made up almost entirely of leftists, but they are very different ideologically. In order to overcome their fascist oppressors, different rebel groups were forced to collaborate and overcome differences. This means that the current government has a strong history of putting differences aside for the good of socialism, but can’t completely agree on what form of socialism they should be working towards.Terrain and Climate
The coastal regions, especially near urban areas, have been terraformed from hundreds or thousands of years of habitation. The further inland you get, the further into the jungle you get. Kutsan sits on the equator, but is almost entirely surrounded by water so has a relatively moderate climate considering their latitude. Kutsan is relatively flat near the coasts (in most areas), but there is some mountainous terrain further inland. There are only two land bridges connecting Kutsan to the rest of the continent, making the country highly defended against non-amphibious invasions.Major Cities

National Resources and Economic Produce
Due to our location between the shallower (mediterranean looking) sea and the much larger ocean to our east, there is a vast fishing industry. Due to our location, it is both easy to grow and harvest trees for lumber, rubber, or any other tree related agriculture.
Kutsan is also uniquely well suited to grow Silphium, a plant native to the Caridinal continent.
Economic Boons
The technology sector is developing rapidly, based largely on encryption machines used during the Great War. The fascist regime that led us into the war had a fascination with war-winning weapons, which were largely a waste of time. However, some innovations were actually made (at an unreasonable financial cost). Shipbuilding expanded rapidly before and during the war, but many shipyards were destroyed. Despite this, there are still many shipbuilders in the country due to the experience gained during the war.
Kutsan sits in a very convenient place for trade due to its location between two major oceans, and it also controls a canal between both.
Under fascist rule, Kutsani artists were suppressed heavily. Now, they are utilizing their newfound freedom and expressing the pain they experienced over the previous 20 years into new and profound works of art. The entertainment industry is thriving, with Kutsani authors and filmmakers largely known for their thought provoking social commentary (we live in a society).
During the previous regime, there were numerous assassination attempts on High Chancellor Osman (the previous dictator). All of these attempts failed, many in unique ways. The state propaganda department produced cartoons depicting these assassins as inept. Post-revolution, they continued producing cartoons. Therefore, there is a thriving animation industry (just don’t ask how they got started).
Economic Struggles
The new government is working hard on the issue, but there is still widespread income inequality mainly in the poorer rural regions. A national welfare plan is currently being implemented to address this issue.The war has left much of the country in poverty.
Technology Level
Due to the experience gained during the revolution, Kutsan has a highly skilled intelligence community. The SSB was a formidable and well-funded institution, so the rebel spy network had to be the very best of the best, or they would be destroyed. The OSI in 1947 is a highly creative, highly adaptable institution with decades of experience in intelligence and counterintelligence. OSI’s Special Circumstances Division are masters of tradecraft known for their unconventional tactics, and are some of the most experienced intelligence operatives in the world.Kutsan has modern military technology due to the previous jingoistic government.
Education and Research
Please provide information on the education & research quality in your nation. Describe the structure of your nation’s education system, including levels of schooling (primary, secondary, tertiary), & educational pathways. Highlight any specialized educational institutions or vocational training centers that contribute heavily to the development of specific skills or knowledge; such as well-known universities. Explain the emphasis placed on research, technological advancement, & scientific exploration within your nation. Discuss any prominent research institutions, scientific achievements, or areas of expertise that your nation is known for. Additionally, elaborate on how education & research initiatives contribute to the overall advancement & prosperity of your nation. This information will help us understand the intellectual & technological prowess of your nation & their potential implications for scientific development & events related to innovation, academia, & knowledge dissemination.Kutsan schools are of a high quality, and many used to be world class. During the fascist years, a lot of the curriculum was stripped down. The new socialist government is working to bring back Kutsan’s educational legacy. Kutsan military research is very advanced, mainly because that is what the fascists put most of their money into.
Military Strength, Composition and Focus
Kutsan has a long history of naval warfare, as there are only two ways out of the country over land and the country has many islands which need to be defended. Additionally, it sits in a strategic position between two oceans. The current navy is made up of the remaining ships of the previous government. Most are relatively new, almost entirely because the older ships were either scrapped or sunk during the war.Current Ship Roster:
1 Fast Battleship
1 Battlecruiser (Older)
4 Super Dreadnoughts (older warships built before 1920)
7 Heavy Cruisers (Sirocco Class)
5 Light Cruisers (Umay Class)
35 Destroyers
50 Corvettes
75 PT Boats
60 Submarines
20 Landing Craft
Current Active Ships:
1 Fast Battleship - 2,000 crew (roughly)
1 Heavy Cruiser - 1,000 crew (roughly)
10 Destroyers - 350 crew per ship, 3,500 total
20 PT Boats - 20 crew per ship, 400 total
10 Submarines - 60 crew per ship, 600 total
20 Landing Craft - 10 crew per ship, 200 total
Most ships are being decommissioned and sold in order to decrease the size of the military postwar and save money. The current navy is split into two battle groups containing one capital ship (either a battleship or heavy cruiser) and five destroyers. These battle groups patrol both coasts of the country, and if the need arises they are capable of conducting military operations globally. The remaining ships are used to patrol Kutsan’s coasts. Kutsan’s submarine forces operate secretly, keeping tabs on foreign vessels and collecting intelligence as quietly as possible. These ships are expected to be replaced with newer vessels in the next few years.
The Kutsan ground forces are highly adept at jungle fighting.
The Office of Strategic Intelligence is the official name for the KSR’s intelligence agency. The Special Circumstances Division (OSI-SCD, operatives are colloquially known as “Fixers”).
Military Struggles
The Kutsan military is currently being downsized following the end of the civil war, with older equipment being sold off or scrapped. If Kutsan on its own were to be attacked by a nation with a similarly sized economy, the military would not be large enough to prevent Kutsan from being invaded. The military’s budget has also been decreased.National Welfare
Kutsan has implemented socialized medicine, in that all medical procedures and medications are price controlled to ensure low prices. If people cannot afford medical care, then the state is required to pay for their treatment. Legally, there must be health facilities up to national standards within reasonable distance to any established towns, cities, or villages of more than 100 people. In the future, it is planned that healthcare will be free to all citizens.There is currently a national effort to build affordable housing in cities, running in parallel with a second effort to create state owned housing to end homelessness postwar.
The goal of the Kutsan welfare state is to ensure that every citizen has access to the bare necessities and is never at risk of falling below the poverty line. While in its beginning stage right now due to the recent war, in the future the average citizen of Kutsan should have access to three healthy meals a day, guaranteed housing, quality medical care, and a world class education. The economy is currently being retooled to accomplish this, and government spending is shifting away from military investment and into public works projects and social programs to ensure that every Kutsan citizen has the basic tools they need to live fulfilling and meaningful lives.
Culture and History
Kutsan as a nation has existed in various forms for roughly 2,000 years. Before its brief time as a Carinian territory, Kutsani society was primarily based on reciprocity; in exchange for labor, the Emperor provided access to land, food, and drink. After gaining independence, however, Kutsan adapted their system; this is around the time when the current Kutsan borders were established on the mainland. Over the next several hundred years, the Kutsan Empire would expand. Territories overseas were allowed to remain independent, but they were required to pay tribute and send troops to fight for the Empire. The Kutsan Empire, officially the Sublime State of Kutsan, reached its height in 1607. Over the next 200 years, Kutsan would decline in power until the threat of revolution became too much and, in exchange for peace, the Emperor was forced to allow for the creation of a Royal Congress in 1810. Kutsan would stabilize for a while, but the newly created democracy was slanted heavily in favor of wealthier Kutsani people, and by the 20th century Kutsan had become a corrupt and relatively weak power. Economic instability would lead to political radicalism, creating the first major wave of popularity for socialist politics since 1810. Unfortunately, Fascism also found its footing around this time.

Since the end of hostilities, the newly created Kutsan Social Republic has worked to finally bring about a democratic, fair, and just society for its people.Modern Culture and Society
The average Kutsani today lives in a highly cosmopolitan world. Kutsan’s cities are large, densely packed, and full of culture; a person living in a city like Kuara will likely go their whole life without running out of new places to explore. Most Kutsani people work in industrial jobs, which pay very well. Night life, especially now, is extensive. Jazz clubs are extremely popular among young Kutsanis.Kutsan has a reputation internationally of getting along with almost anyone, and Kutsani people are generally seen by foreigners as relaxed and easygoing.
Kutsan’s entertainment sector has been mentioned in other sections of this form.
Religion
N/A. Kutsan does not have an official state religion. There are a wide variety of religions practiced by its citizens. During the old empire, the sun god Kuara was worshiped. The Cult of Kuara is no longer active, but sun-related imagery can be seen everywhere.Civil Struggles
There remain lingering fascist elements in the country, and many still have nostalgia for the days when the Sublime State of Kutsan ruled the world centuries before (according to them). This could result in future problems, as it is likely that the Kutsan intelligence apparatus will suppress these beliefs in-country and force them to flee to other areas. This will cause problems because having a band of psychopathic, xenophobic ex-military people causing problems globally is bad for stability. The worst of the worst under Osman were the SSB, the State Security Bureau. The SSB no longer exist, and most of their low level members have been captured, tried, and executed for their crimes against humanity. However, the SSB’s leadership is currently missing.Foregin Relations
Member of Tasharkan pact. Officially, Kutsan is highly cooperative with any even remotely ideologically aligned groups, with focus on mutual prosperity. Privately, the Kutsan intelligence community (OSI) works to bring about the global revolution at any cost. (the explanation for this being that, based on their experience under Osman, the only two choices are “Socialism or Barbarism '' and they want to ensure that countries make the correct choice, even if those countries don’t see it that way). The OSI also works to track down the remaining members of the now-defunct SSB.Border Statuses
Please provide information about the status of your nations borders with neighboring countries. Describe the restriction of civil, economic, and military travel that exist along these borders. Explain the reasons behind these border statuses, including any historical, political, or economic factors that have shaped these relationships. Discuss whether these borders are characterized by peaceful coexistence, economic collaboration, military tensions, conflicts, or security concerns. If there are any ongoing disputes related to border issues, please share relevant details. Additionally, provide insights into your nation’s efforts to maintain stability and enforcement of these policies along its borders. This information will help us understand your nation’s regional dynamics @ potential roleplay interactions related to border disputes, regional stability, & cross-border security.Kutsan has relatively open borders (Of course, the OSI keeps watch for reactionary elements) due to their libertarian socialist principles. Particularly, Kutsan and Nykea have a close relationship due to mutual political beliefs.
Additional Lore
MODERN KUTSAN HISTORY - TIMELINE20 July 1919 - In the early morning hours, Kutsani marines stationed on overseas bases seize government buildings on the Portore islands. There is no organized resistance. By sunrise, Portore is functionally under Kutsani control. There are widespread protests across Kutsan. Krishna University students are particularly active, calling for the Imperial War College (a part of Krishna University) to be shut down.
12 August 1919 - Prime Minister Osman makes the following statement to the press regarding the annexation: “For almost a millennia, Portore has been rightful Kutsan territory. For too long, we have allowed Caridinal politics to be dictated by those who wish to see our great civilization forgotten. Well, from this day forwards, I hereby promise to every true Kutsani that the days of foreign dominance over our culture are over.”
27 August 1919 - Kuara Police Precinct 7 is damaged following a firebombing, which is blamed on anti-war protestors. Unknown to the general public, this act of arson was carried out by an ethno-nationalist group in an effort to escalate the police response to protests. Several members of this group were also law enforcement officers, who would later join the State Security Bureau.
30 August 1919 - 192 Students at Krishna University block the main entrance to the Imperial War College. Early that evening, two groups of twelve men armed with submachine guns, dressed in unmarked military equipment, arrived to reinforce a group of police officers containing the crowd. They quickly open fire, killing 15 at the scene and mortally wounding 11 others. 23 additional people were seriously injured, but survived. Many of these victims died primarily because the police refused to allow medical personnel through for nearly an hour. There is outrage across Kutsan following the Krishna Massacre.
1 September 1919 - Following days of major protests, riots, and demonstrations of all kinds, Kosem Osman orders the paramilitary wing of the Kutsan National Union party to undertake the assassination of Padishah Emperor Tomex XXVIII in a false flag operation. Following the palace bombing, Osman was granted emergency powers. This allowed him to suspend elections and begin the large-scale arrest of political opponents.
2 September 1919 - Osman declares martial law all across Kutsan.
10 September 1919 - The Kuara Sentinel is raided by the fledgling State Security Bureau. Most of the staff is taken for questioning.
12 September 1919 - The State Security Bureau is officially founded. Their first major task is the interrogation and liquidation of captured protestors, Kuara Sentinel staff, and other enemies of the state.
1 January 1920 - Kosem Osman officially becomes the first High Consul of Kutsan.
There are several Proppunk tales I have written previously to detail some historical events or people.
Kutsan roughly translates to “People of the Sun” from ancient Rimayan.
