===Prehistory=== | ===Prehistory=== | ||
Archaeological evidence (and considering the heavy significance of seafaring among Durykian cultures) suggest that the Durykians, currently encompassing the Duryk archipelago and <insert island here> of Akamyokulta, have migrated from the Minninni river located in [[Koize]], south of [[Ngeyvger]], at around 2500BCE. The early Durykians split into three distinct ethnic groups at around 1800BCE; they are the Yotush, which are the Mainland and Yozhunu peoples; the Gasmutush, which are now the Attusic, Nusic, and Ontushic peoples; and the proto-Akamyokultan-Duryk people. | |||
===The Mainland Duryk Expansion=== | |||
Both the Yotush and the Gasmutush were peaceful peoples which aided each other due to Durykia's harsh climate. It is believed that the Yotush had dominance over the Gasmutush because they resided in areas with more resources. As early Duryk and Yozhunu peoples became separate ethnic groups, the early Duryks were the Yozhunu and the Gasmutush peoples' main source of resources. Along with resources, Duryks spread their language, religion, and philosophy. | |||
===Expansion to Akamyokulta=== | |||
As of today, there is still an insufficient amount of evidence which suggests whether the early Duryks expanded to <insert Akamyokultan island here>, Akamyokulta, before, during, or after the Duryk expansion throughout the Duryk archipelago. The most widely accepted theory is that early Durykians (before the emergence of the Yotush and Gasmutush peoples) continued west and stopped migrating at <insert Akamyokultan island here>. It may be possible that early Durykians, or perhaps early KOIZE-Durykians, expanded to Eastern Alpa, Northern Ngeyvger, or Northern Qgam as well; however, further archaeological evidence has yet to be discovered. | |||

Durykia (Duryk: dуryksjүlbu Duryksjülbu ([ˈdu.rɪk.ˌʃy.bu]), officially the Duryk Republic, is an archipelago country located in Northwest Miraria, west of Ngeyvger, east of Akamyokulta, and north of Qgam.
Etymology
The word Duryk refers to the ethnic group of the same name inhabiting the Duryk Archipelago. Where the name was derived from is still uncertain.

The most widely accepted theory is that early Durykians (before the emergence of the Yotush and Gasmutush peoples) continued west and stopped migrating at <insert Akamyokultan island here>.

A famous staple beverage of Duryk culture is Lisqupybung (Duryk: lиsqupybuń Lisqupybuń ([ˈɫis.qu.pɪ.buŋ]), from Lihsesqu Pürbeń, literally, "tea of snow"), or Duryk iced tea, which is a cold tea that used to be infused with powder snow and a variety of berries.
