The Constitutional Empire of Socialist Provinces

Etymology
The Empire goes by two names, the Constitutional Emire of Socialist Provinces, and Norsend. The former is the official name of the modern government and its subsequent nation. It derives from the fact that the nation is just that-- A collection of provinces following under a socialist empire bearing a constitution. The latter is the name of the aincient kingdoms that the empire formed itself from. The word Norsend actually originates from the Uriak terms "Nord", meaning 'north', and "Sjænd", meaning 'land'. The word Skuldan, which is used to refer to the sub-continent on which the CESP resides, is a direct translation to Veshiv of the word Norsend.

History
While the history of Skuldan and it's many kingdoms is lengthly, the government that rules the current iteration of the Empire is not very old in contrast to most. There have been a total of three "Empires of Norsend" in the province's history; the Skaross Empire, the Uriak Empire, and the modern Empire of Socialist Provinces. However, the roots of all three began in the aincient tribe of Veshiv, a warrior tribe dating back to around 3500 BTC. They went to war with many of their surrounding nomadic tribes, and eventually became a sizable set of conquered territories. To the west, two more tribes appeared, the Skaross on the Romenis peninsula, and the Bosska on the tip of Skuldan. The three tribes began to grow in influence, and archeologists have discovered evidence of trade between the the three as early as 3200 BTC.

The Skaross Empire
The Skaross eventually became a massive power, declaring itself an empire after conquering the northern city of Aruss in 2900 BTC. Their empire spanned from the northern coasts of Stania, to the western parts of the modern Sovietyeto. They never managed to go too far north, as the vengeful Uriak and Chev tribes managed to hold their ground. The empire entered a long age of fruitful and prosperous trade
