Kus

Kus (Kusian: Къćіꙉір (Kyśíxir), tr. Kusickschir,) officially the Great Tribal Union of Kus is a  in North Zemlya. It borders Reismov to the West, Bloodia and Sataria to the South-West, Lipnitia and to the South, Sremia to the South-East, TBA and TBA to the East. The country is split in Northern and Southern parts by North Zemlyan Mountain Belt with population distributed higher the furthern away from the mountain range it is, with only exception being large city of Souĺäosadźić on Reismovi border.

Kusian nature ranges from rocky cold shores of the North, marshlands and lakes of the North-East, heavily forested mountainous areas in the centre and agriculturally rich Southern and Western Grasslands with common mixed leaf forests. Vast river network flows through the country with main rivers being Woumisra that starts in the North and flows South through Lipnitia and Sataria into Pilsudic sea, and Lapshura which starts in Lipnitia and flows into Apshulgian sea. Kus has sea access in the North with its shore of Whitewind sea and in the East on Apshulgian sea. The climate is mild with warm continental summers with reliably cold and snowy winters due to warm winds being caught by mountain ranges with significant effect of large Reismovi landmass to the West and cold waters of the North.

Core population of Kus consists of Kapet-Vatenians of the North and Chirnians of the South, which make up majority of Kusian slavs. These two main group of Kusians are descendants of Early Slavic tribes and city-states that settled the North of Zemlya around 1th century BCE, being one of the earliest known slavic group. Due to advancements in river maritime trade, first tribal and city-state unions started to arise by 5th century with Kusians developing Northern Cuneiform Writing. In consequence, there are 5th century Kusian written records mentioning Reismov and Reismovi people, rivalring mainstream ethnogenesis theory of Reismovi people being descendants of proto- origin.

Kus uses traditional calendar and year counting system and the current year being 8750.
