Chelgyu and Chinamshi (Language:Yandu Xàul beh xéid gwa xȇid nạn xé [ɕɑul˦˨ bɤ˧ ɕɪid˨˦ kwɑ˧ ɕɪid˧˦˨ nɑn˨ ɕə˨˦], Language:Cheli Hyelhíçû cò Yahyásuçû [çeʎíɟû cò jaçásuɟû]), officially the Confederation of the State of Chelgyu and the Kingdom of Chinamshi, and the General Government of Kwailhan from 1942 to 1949 during the Pangyeoun War, is a country located in the Draconic islands, situated between Tzulhon, Danshapu and Dhwer.

Politics

Government

Chelgyu and Chinamshi is a constitutional federal diarchy, where the King of Chinamshi Olboros-Hài Mèmoun and the High Chief of Chelgyu Ûngçu VI-shá Òyaz co-rule over Chelgyu and Chinamshi. However, the two are also their own separate identities, ruled by their assigned high chief or king. Thus, the high chief or king of these constituent countries hold two positions at the same time, the high chief or king of their own country and the position of a co-ruler of Chelgyu and Chinamshi. De jure, all power is distributed equally between the two high chiefs with both having a say that holds the same weight. De facto, the High Chief of Chinamshi holds more power in the diarchy.

Demographics

Language

Chelgyu and Chinamshi share the same language family, but Cheli and Yandu are from different branches.

Religion

The most common practiced religion in Chelgyu and Chinamshi is Cult of the Sacred Lotus.

Culture

With a long and complex history, Cheli and Chinamese culture is a wide spectrum starting from far west where Cheli culture seems to imitate Danshapu culture, in east Chelgyu one can find vernacular native culture, something that has existed for thousands of years in the same place, barely touched. Chinamese culture, influenced most by Qonklaks, but also by other international cultures, has a deep and intricate fusion of vernacular, early Qonklese, neo-vernacular and modern cultures.

Architecture

The architecture of Chelgyu and Chinamshi is varied as the two nations have a long separate history and the powers that influenced them were also different. Chelgyu was mainly influenced by Naguan and Danshapu architecture, but also kept a lot of its own vernacular architecture. However, as for Chinamshi, Qonklese influence during the XX period and onwards saw massive reconstructions all over the island, which replaced vernacular architecture. At first Chinamese architecture was a copy of that in Qonklaks; something that should be copied from masters for its perfect form. During the XX period, a counter-movement in art started, which sought to eliminate all foreign influences from Chinamese art and culture. This also affected Chinamese architecture. Many buildings were demolished since they were seen as symbols of foreign power and replaced with newer buildings.
