Daluyo (Language: Luyman [IPA]), officially the The Democratic Republic of Dá, Luymites and Yo, is a country located in northeastern Lahan, and borders Utogo to the east and Kaiyyo to the south. Daluyo is the most mountainous of Lahanian nations with Îwíwas mountains cutting the country in half.
Etymology
History
Pre-history
Antiquity
Many modern historians consider the antiquity to have started when contact was established with various Lahanian kingdoms and confederacies were established.
Neviran Colonisation
After merchants from Saruan Empire arrived in Lahan in 1631, it didn't take long until their trade routes expanded to modern-day Daluyo.
Balak Colonisation
The modern borders of Daluyo were first drafted in 18XX, when Balak Empire purchased East and West Herayan (now Daluyo and Utogo respectively).
Lovan Crisis and Independence
For much of the Balak rule, peoples of Dàlwes had enjoyed great ties with West Herayan. Most of their trade and relations with the outside world went trough West Herayan as well. The colonial government of East Herayan instead directed most of their development efforts to Layìze, where people thrived compared to Dàlwes. This dissatisfaction along with the generally oppressive rule that even Luymites, not to mention Balaks, imposed on other peoples of East Herayan. This eventually lead up to an uprising in 1954, where mostly Lovans fought.
The Lovan Rebellion took the colonial government of East Herayan by complete surprise in how fierce it was. Imperial peacekeeping forces that were sent to Dàlwes to deal with the insurgency were struggling to hold on to settlements and routes and rebels were gaining ground at an alarming pace. The colonial government swiftly sent a delegation to Sonka, where the provisional government was located at the time. Instead of troops, what the delegation brought with them was a notice of independence from the Balak Empire.

Geography
Daluyo is often divided into four main geographical areas: Layìze (The Coast), Ìwiwas (The Mountains), Dàlwes (The Inland) and Noysàpey (The North). Layìze (Luyman word for 'coast') is the eastern coast of where most of the land is used for either agriculture or housing. Approximately half of the population of Daluyo lives in Layìze, most of which are Luymites. It is separated from the rest of Daluyo by Ìwiwas, a mountain range stretching from one of the northernmost points of Lahan South near Kaiyyo. It's main characteristics are forested peaks and diversity of peoples dwelling in the numerous valleys. West of Ìwiwas lies Dàlwes that is mainly rainforest. The northernmost area, Noysàpey, is hilly and has a comparatively low population density. The largest nature reserve in Daluyo is located mostly within Noysàpey.

Demographics
Ethnic groups
The most numerous single people in Daluyo are Luymites, numbering just over 6 million. They wield the most political and economic power in the country and have become the plurality in Daluyo in the recent 100 years or so. Their modern cultural and linguistic landcape haas primarily been attributed to come from the Saruan empire-era elite from Luyuan confederacy. That is also the proposed origin for the name "Luymite".
Urbanisation
Language
The official language and lingua franca of Daluyo is Luyman, but there are a few recognised regional languages, the most famous of which is Lovan. They represent the two most prominent language families in Daluyo: Lahiri languages and Sanu-Jutean languages. Most of all Lahiri Languages spoken in Daluyo are Eastern Insular. The branch is further divided into Coastal and Inland languages of which Coastal languages are quite similar and a degree of mutual intelligibility can be achieved between certain languages. Inland languages are however much more diverse, with poor traversability between even proximate villages.
