The believed source of Cananganam's name comes from [[Proto-Asuranesian language|Proto-Asuranesian's]] *knéʔ-n meaning “black”, referring to the fertile jungle soils of the Southern regions of Cananganam, though some dispute it to refer to the peoples’ darker complexion than those further north, however, this meaning has less bearing as the Cananganamese refer to themselves as ''Emiđ'', itself an entirely different root.

==History==
Cananganam was originally settled by hunter-gatherer peoples during the early neolithic era, generally assumed to be the [[Mbangke People|Mbangke]] and [[Hisirudic people|Hisirudic peoples]]. However, around 1500 BC, the [[Cananganamese people|Cananganamese]] had settled along the coast, driving the natives inland. The first records of the Cananganam Kingdoms appear some time between the 480s and the 490s with the mentioning of Cananganam in Dhweric writings.

These hunter-gatherer societies likely subsisting entirely on local fauna and flora such as bananas, taro, pigs, fish, and chickens. Evidence indicating the use of smaller scale boats than their Asuranesian neighbors points towards a demand for large scale fishing where possible, as nets, tools; made of either stone or bone, and hooks dating to 3,000 BC have been discovered along the coasts of some of Cananganam's interior lakes.

Around 2500 BC, the [[Cananganamese people|Cananganamese]] had begun to create larger scale settlements along the coast during their migration, driving the native hunter-gatherers inland. The complexity of these early societies in Cananganam were much more larger than the Hisirudic societies. As a result of the introduction of agriculture, slash and burn practices had become widespread to make way for the production of farmland needed to fulfill the needs of the growing Cananganamese population, ultimately changing the local biosphere and societies in the process. Evidence of trading with Mainland Boroso shows in early glass-works, as the composition of these glasses includes the use of natron, commonly found along the West coast of Boroso.
 
There is strong evidence that craftsmanship had exploded in its uses during the Early Cananganamese kingdoms, as materials such as bronze, lead, gold, jade, mercury, and diamonds; were utilized in extravagant art-forms paving the path for many cultural developments and the establishing of an early caste system of society, where those wealthy enough to afford these extravagances were held in the highest regard, over those who only held wealth in name or in the shape of land. Glasswork was exceptionally prized during this period for its appeal as a gem and seen as being a reflection of the world's energy around them, leading to several Cananganamese myths regarding the material.


===Classical Period===
===Classical Period===
The time of first records of writing in Nagu occur sometime in the 600s when Cananganamese traders and priests, adopting the early Dulic Script, [[Cananganamese script|created their own]] to suit their own linguistic and logistical needs. This adaptation allowed the Cananganamese sailors to better travel and to pass knowledge of trade routes to others. This innovation brought Cananganamese sailors further into the Asura Ocean, bringing both their script and localized varieties of Musa cultivars.
By the time of 900 BCE, writing had finally reached Cananganam from Dhwer, in the form of a Cuneiformic script, utilized for both stockpiles and in artistic forms. Cananganamese societies saw a massive increase in population by this time, reaching a height of roughly 10 million, exceeding that of several nations of Sahar during this period, thanks to its early adoption of several hygienic practices such as separating stockpiles of refuse and fecal matter from water stockpiles, as well as the application of natron in early soaps. Trade during this time had flourished, with Cananganamese sailors expanding as far south as Yakormonyo and Faknirland by 100 CE, and as far north as Danshapu by 100 CE. These ranges of trade would expand as value was found in trading with the Asuranesian Island Kingdoms, with the naval ranges almost quadrupling with Cananganamese sailors being recording as reaching [[Atsiq]] in 800 CE, and as far West as [[Jute]] by 1200 CE, and possibly reaching [[Ystel]] by 1300 CE.
 
Trade dominated Cananganamese society, and as a result, a newly created caste named as the Uvas (Classical form: ''Umbẓā́''), referring to their status as free citizens, led to some upheaval in the society of Cananganam which had a three way distinction between the Monarchs (Classical form: ''Titpyā́''), the poor known as Unas (Classical form: ūnā́), and the slaves known as Nammans (Classical form: Námmaṇṭṣē). This newly created class had come to be the newly established middle class, while the peasants had continued to remain in their less than admirable positions. As a result, revolts had become common in the cities for some time during the period between 400 BC and 100 BC. This dissidence within the lower classes resulted in the Uvas trading abroad for slaves, purchasing them with products of jade, gold, and lead. As a result, the workforce of Cananganam shifted from its reliance on the already poorer classes for indentured servants separated from their homelands.
 
However, from 352 BC into 348 BC, there was a [[Servant War of 352 BC|massive revolt of the lower classes in several kingdoms]], demanding the removal of all slaves from Cananganam. The war had lasted several years, and had led to the slaughter of thousands of slaves, eventually forcing the Monarchs to agree to make concessions with the lower classes, wherein all slaves purchased from abroad would be made into Eunuchs and the sale of the children of slaves born in Cananganam was to be strictly prohibited. This led to a decline in Cananganam's overall population and a decline in the power of the Uvas, who were reliant on the slave trade to supply cheap labor that could not be supplied by the lower classes as a result of the danger of the work involved. A decline in Cananganam's economy led to further problems after this period, leading to the collapse of several kingdoms to civil war and strife, which in turn led to larger kingdoms forming within the region. Eventually, slavery would be re-introduced into Cananganam and the region saw an increase in trade once more. To prevent the problems of the centuries before, the Unas were given the right to craftsmanship, meaning that only free individuals were permitted to create art-work or participate actively in cultural events. However, the introduction of these laws only delayed the problems for sometime.
 
The Canamic culture saw further expansion onto the islands of the Southwest around 250 BCE, however, unexpectedly a new religion had formulated on the mainland that had created dissent and left the kingdoms unable to conquer the islands. A new religion had taken hold of Cananganam, which taught in reincarnation and redemption in the way of actions. The new religion was founded by Rankitsee, who referred to his religion as Jhattsee. He was differentiated from other prophets of the time in that he advocated peaceful resistance and was himself from the Uvas, giving him some political sway among colleagues. Eventually, his religion took a large hold amongst the majority of Cananganam within 200 years, and had begun to influence other regions where Cananganamese trade had persisted with. Eventually, as a result of the Jhattsee religion, the slave trade had dwindled and the lower classes were integrated into the Uvas while the pre-existing slave caste were brought into the fold of the Unas.


Benefitting from their widespread trade from Lahan to the West, Atsiq to the North, Boroso's Western coasts, and as far east as Mbamigi, their nation saw a rise in the arts and standardized religion. Devotionism soon found its way into the region under the Bavkir pirates whom became local nobility in the [[Muddhuny kingdom]].

Cananganam is a Naguan State predominantly populated by Asuranesians.

Etymology

The believed source of Cananganam's name comes from a Proto-Asuranesian word meaning “black” *knéʔ-n, referring to the fertile jungle soils of Cananganam.

History

Cananganam was originally settled by hunter-gatherer peoples during the early neolithic era, generally assumed to be the Hisirudic peoples. These hunter-gatherer societies likely subsisting entirely on local fauna and flora such as bananas, taro, pigs, fish, and chickens.
