Thuyo or Tuyo (Jayun Thap: Thúyo, IPA: /t̪ʰújɵ/ ; Ikang Thap: Thuyǫ /θujɔˤ/, Qaila'u Dūyo /ˀtu:jəu/), officially the Republic of Thuyo, is a developing country mostly located on the southwest of the island of Lahan. It is covered largely by tropical rainforest, with its population mostly concentrated along the coast. The two largest cities, NAME and NAME, originally established by colonial powers, are quite wealthy and cosmopolitan. Elsewhere the country is quite poor and rural. It has an overwhelmingly resource-based economy, with its most important exports being raw natural rubber, exotic lumber, and tropical fruits.
History
Thuyo was originally settled in ??? BCE by Sanju, a Saru-Asuran people. It was colonized in CE 1??? by the Neviran Empire and later overtaken as an overseas colony by the Balak Empire. It became an independent country in 1962 during the dissolution of the Balak Empire.

Demographics
There are several native ethnic groups in Thuyo, most of them closely related.
The gender ratio (see Gender section below) is approximately 40:50:10 sēyōmo:ñāmo:lanēmo (Qaila'u: /səijauməu, ɲaiməu, lanəiməu/,
Language
Many languages are spoken in Thuyo, mostly belonging to the Ekuo-Lahiri and Sañu-Jutean language families. Most inhabitants are conversant in one of the two official languages, Jayun Thap and Qaila'u, respectively, and many can also speak Neviran or Balak and international languages. However, up to 70% of citizens speak a minority language or dialect in the home.
Jayun Thap, Ikang Thap, and a handful of other minority languages are descended from Old Thap, which still exists as a literary language. The Thap languages and Neviran represent both main branches of the Ekuo-Lahiri language family.
Culture
Most Tuyans still live fairly traditional lives, augmented by imported modern technologies but not reliant on them. Communalism is the main socioeconomic structure, although family units are often divided into different dwellings and may try to be self-sufficient.
Gender
Gender demographics are quite complicated in Thuyo due to a mix of different social systems, standards, and norms. Between the traditional Lahani-based and Lahiri-influenced three-gender system of sēyōmo, ñāmo, lanēmo or "stayers, leavers, and voyagers" and the modern legal system (imposed by [Balakia or Nevira] and comprised of [2 or 4/5] genders, which do not map easily to the indigenous Tuyan system) there is a lot of variation in census data. Citizens may even have multiple different legal genders according to different pieces of ID.
Cuisine
The main crop is coconut, with other vegetables and seafood making up the bulk of the rest of the diet. Further inland, grain and fruit are more common. Meat is chiefly bushmeat hunted from the many large flightless birds. Pigs are also farmed for their meat. Dairy and cattle are not common in Lahan.
