Rojadavistan

Rojadavistan is a northern landlocked country in the Near East. Rojadavistan shares a border with Angiris in the north and Ustyara in the south.

Rojadavistan split from New Galasia in 1587, after the Vintyr 1586 independence referendum shortly after the Galasian Civil War (1579-1585). Previously it was known as the Eastmarch, the eastern region of the Kingdom of New Galasia under Galasian rule for more than six centuries.

Etymology

"Rojadavistan" derives from Rojadavi, the majority ethnic group in the country, which at the same time derives from the word "Rojadan", one of the demoniations that these lands received during the ancient Umirid Empire, which invaded and dominated for a few centuries until the territory was conquested by the Galasian Empire.

Geography

Rojadavistan lies between Angiris and Ustyara. A vast gravel desert plain coverts most of southern and central Rojadavistan. Rojadavistan's climate is hot and dry. The northern provinces have a more fertile lands, and where most of the population, until recently, lived.

The major cities include Sermîyan, the capital city, city (formerly Eastmarch) and town.
