==Etymology==
==Etymology==
Word ''Tomɋäk'' is a compound of words ''Tom''' "river" and ''ŋäɋäk'' "land" and can be literally translated as "valley".
Word ''Tomâǥa'' is tracing back to Proto-Tomgic word ''*somь-nhanqax'' which is compounding of words ''*somь'' "river" and ''*nhanqax'' "land, earth, ground, soil".
==History==
===Early history===
====Paleo-Tomic cultures (2nd millenium BC - End of the 1st millenium BC)====
In ancient times, Tomgak Islands was home to several Paleo-Tomic cultures known today from archeological finds. The earliest settlements of Paleo-Tomic people were found on the Big Island and date back to around the 2nd millennium BC. At the end of the 1st millennium BC, for unknown reasons, Paleo-Tomic cultures began to disappear and by the arrival of the Tomic people they had completely disappeared.
====Early Tomic cultures (6th century AD - 13th century AD)====
Around the beginning of the 6th century AD, settlements of the early Tomic cultures began to appear off the coast of the Big Island. By the 11th century, Tomic cultures were already widespread on all islands and gradually city-states grew out of them, and from them small kingdoms. By the 13th century, all the islands were divided between 4 kingdoms.
====City-states of Tomgak Islands (8th century AD - Middle of the 9th century AD)====
The first city-states arose on the southern coast of the Big Island, they were: Fuchuta and Tomal. The early city-states were isolated from each other, however, with the development of shipbuilding and trade, trade between cities was set up. In the most advantageous position was the city of Tomal, which was located at the intersection of trade routes. Gradually, the cities were united into single states.
====Kingdoms of Islands (Middle of the 9th century AD - 1311 AD)====
By the middle of the 9th century, two powerful kingdoms had formed on the Big Island: the Kingdom of Fuchuta and the Kingdom of Tomal. They divided the island between themselves. Relations between the kingdoms were very tense, so a major conflict was not long in coming. In 833, the Kingdom of Tomal conquered the Kingdom of Fuchuta and the Big Island was completely united. In 852, the Kingdom of Tomal annexed neighboring islands other than the Cold Islands.


The Cold Islands were inhabited by those seeking new lands. The Kingdom of the Cold Islands was formed there sometime in the middle of the 8th century. The Kingdom of the Cold Islands was extremely weak and the Kingdom of Tomal pressed on the kingdom from the southeast. In 911, the Kingdom of Tomal declared war on the Kingdom of the Cold Islands. A month later, the Islands were captured and the Kingdom of the Cold Islands ceased to exist.
The English name for Tomgak comes from Imperial Xâzu dialect word ''Tomǥak'' /tɔmɢɐk̚/ which is tracing back to same Proto-Tomgic word as word ''Tomâǥa''.


After the war between the Kingdom of Tomal and the Kingdom of Fuchuta, part of the inhabitants of the Kingdom of Fuchuta left the country in search of refuge, which they found in the Far Islands. At the end of the 10th century, the New Kingdom of Fuchuta appeared on the islands. This state did not have an army and was unable to withstand any attack, but remained independent due to its relatively long distance.
==History==
 
===Pretomic Tomgak (3400 BCE – 1100 BCE)===
In the 11th century, traders from the Kingdom of Tomal sailed in search of new lands, they found the Central Islands. They were annexed in 1311
===Tomic settlement (1100 BCE – 920 BCE)===
===Great Kingdom of Tomgak (1688 AD - 1804 AD)===
===Cjadë Commonwealth (631 CE – 748 CE)===
In 1688, the ruler of the Kingdom of Tomal, Noqtom XXVI, took the title of King of all Northern Lands of Tomgak (then it was believed that there are some lands south of the present Tomgak). In 1711, Tomgak explorers accidentally found the Far Islands. In 1714, a full-scale invasion of the islands began. The islands were captured in a month and were annexed to Tomgak. In 1752, anti-monarchist movements began to emerge, which later merged into the "Tomgak Anti-Monarchist Freedom Movement". The movement organized terrorist acts, attempts to assassinate the rulers, the movement could have remained an underground terrorist organization until in 1801 there was a severe famine in the country, which claimed the lives of 20 thousand people. Part of the population became disillusioned with the monarchy and the number of TAMFM members began to grow at a tremendous rate. Everything was heading towards civil war. In 1804, a wave of major protests began. The order was given to shoot at them. Over a thousand people were killed during the protests. These events were the reason for the outbreak of the First Civil War.
===Cjadë Empire (748 CE – 1143 CE)===
===Modern Tomgak===
===Era of feudalism in Cjadë Empire (1143 CE – 1461 CE)===
====First Civil War and Post-war period (1804 AD - 1817 AD)====
===Mhjör Kingdom (1387 CE – 1491 CE)===
In 1804, the first battles between monarchists and anti-monarchists began. The Central Islands also had an anarchist movement that fought against anti-monarchists and against monarchists. In 1805, all large settlements were captured, except Taqtomal. The battle for Taqtomal is considered the largest in the history of Tomgak. During the battle, about 50 thousand people died. The battle itself lasted 5 months. As a result, Taqtomal was taken by anti-monarchists. In 1806, the strongholds of monarchist resistance remained on the Cold and Far Islands. In 1807, the civil war ended with the final victory of the anti-monarchists. During the war, the population of Tomgak decreased by 3 times, settlements were devastated, and agricultural products were taken from the population on an ongoing basis. Antimonarchists have built a totalitarian, close to fascist, state. However, after a severe crop failure in 1815. The worst famine in the history of Tomgak began. The population decreased by 2 times, falling to a historical minimum. People were very unhappy with the situation. In 1817, the Tomgak government announced that they were not interested in the opinion of the people.
===Kramölj's Great Tomgak Empire (1491 CE – 1607 CE)===
====Second Civil War (1817 AD - 1818 AD)====
===First Tomgak Commonwealth (1607 CE – 1831 CE)===
In 1817, there was a revolution that started the Second Civil War. It went on for a very short time, since almost everyone was dissatisfied with the government at that time. In 1818, deputies of the Tomgak government were shot in a village near Taqtomal. In Tomgak, the monarchy began to rule again.
====War for Xaiɂö Islands (1639 CE – 1642 CE)====
====Second Kingdom of Tomgak (1818 AD - 1911 AD)====
===Revolution of the Polar Night (1831 CE)===
During the period of the Second Kingdom, industrialization began in Tomgak, the policy of "One people - one language" began, the goal of which was to assimilate the population of the Far Islands. In 1911, for unknown reasons, the king of Tomgak, Noqtom XXXIX killed most of the royal family and committed suicide. In his will, he wrote about the transfer of power to a certain movement "Children of the Islands".
===First Civil War (1831 CE – 1837 CE)===
===="Children of the Islands" dictatorship (1911 AD - 1949 AD)====
===Second Tomgak Commonwealth (1837 CE – 1901 CE)===
In 1911, the dictatorship of the "Children of the Island" came to power in Tomgak. The movement itself was a totalitarian extremist far-right racist movement that believed that everyone except the Tomians had to die. One of the ideas of the movement was the creation of the Great Tomgak Empire on the territory of the entire Miraria. Between 1911 and 1949, more than seven thousand people were killed on the basis of race and / or nationality, although often enough it was necessary to be against the movement in order to stop being Tomian in the eyes of the movement. In 1949, there was a successful assassination attempt on the heads of government. Six bombs were hidden in the government meeting room, which exploded at the start of the meeting, killing some people with a blast wave and burns, and another part with a collapsed ceiling. On the same day, the monarchy was restored with Noqtom XL at its head.
===Tomgak Empire (1901 CE – 1952 CE)===
====Third Kingdom of Tomgak (1949 AD - ...)====
===Great Kúúlist Revolution (1952 CE)===
The new king got a country destroyed economically and politically. In 3 years he was able to restore the economy. A free market appeared. In 1956, a political crisis began due to the death of the ruler. The Far Islands took advantage of this crisis by declaring the independence of their state. In 1957, a joint reign began between Noqtom XLI and Ekletom III. Ekletom III died in 1961 of heart disease. In 1963, a series of five military conflicts began between Tomgak and the Third Kingdom of the Far Islands. The first conflict lasted from 1963 to 1965 and ended with the defeat of Tomgak. The second conflict lasted from 1970 to 1977 and ended with the status quo. The third conflict lasted from 1990 to 1993 and ended with the victory of the Far Islands and the capture of the Cold Islands. The fourth conflict lasted from 1997 to 2000 and ended with the defeat of the Far Islands. The Cold Islands and part of the south Far Islands passed to Tomgak. The fifth conflict lasted from 2004 to 2007, as a result, Tomgak completely captured the Far Islands. In 2011, in the mountains near the city of Tomal due to an earthquake of magnitude 8.7, a powerful landslide descended, causing megatsunami 507 meters high, which destroyed a significant part of the city. These events led to the beginning of a massive migration from those lands inland or to the capital. Between 2009 and 2021, approximately 150 thousand people left Tomal, thereby reducing the city's population by 30 times, while increasing the Taqtomal population by almost 2 times.

===Language===
===Language===
The official written and spoken language of Tomgak is [[Qa Tomo]], a Qaic language of Tomic language family. At the moment, all the relatives of the language are dead, due to the policy called "One people - one language", when absolutely everyone was forced to speak [[Qa Tomo]]. Due to the very strong purism in the language, loanwords are almost completely absent.


The language has become written quite recently. Around the 18th century, the language developed a written language, the exact origin of which is unknown.

===Rites===
====Rites of passage====
=====Family=====
======Birth======
After the birth of the child, a ritual is performed over the newborn. Depending on gender, water (male) or snow (female) is rubbed into the newborn. It is believed that after this the child will live a very long life. On some northern islands, a similar rite can be performed on the parents of the child.
======Marriage======
The future husband and wife meet on the hill and in the presence of their parents, (if any) brothers and / or sisters, good friends, and the head of the village / town / city. They promise that they will be faithful to each other, hug, and then shout to the sky that they are now husband and wife.
======Breakup======
Breakup is the same as a wedding, but instead of hugging, the husband and wife move away from each other, say goodbye, and then shout to the sky that this is the end of their relationship.
======Funeral======
After the death of a certain person, before burial, he is "fed" with a mixture of feces, urine and a small amount of blood (a couple of drops) of the person closest to the deceased. After he is cremated, his ashes are placed in a bag and thrown into the sea.
=====Society=====
======Coronation======
After the accession of the ruler to the throne, his coronation takes place. He is poured over with very cold water, the people present at the coronation begin to say his duties, and then they say his full title. After that, the new ruler shouts to the sky that he became a ruler, and only after that he officially becomes a ruler.
Due to the fact that Tomgak is a federation, approximately the same rites take place in the regions, but on a smaller scale and with some differences, depending on the region.
======Moving======
Earlier, in Tomgak, a rite was very popular when, when a person moved to a new settlement, the inhabitants of this settlement met him, gave him gifts and greeted him, but with the growth of the city this rite fade out, however, in some small settlements (the population of which usually less than 1000) this rite is still performed.
===Architecture===
The earliest forms of Tomian architecture was igloos, chums and dugouts. With the development of vernicular architecture, dugouts turned into cabins. The owner of each wanted to somehow make his house stand out from the rest, most often they created patterned window frames or cut something on the walls of their house. With the beginning of industrialization, the mass building of cities with panel buildings began.

===Film===
Most of Tomgak's films were filmed in the 20th century and were often filmed for propaganda purposes and in order to discredit the enemy. The most striking example of the film, filmed in order to discredit the enemy was the film "Death of God" (kxäy yes'ŋäœ), filmed in order to discredit the monarchical regime. The film shows brutal scenes of executions and torture of political opponents of the monarchy; at the moment, most of the film is considered lost. From the film, only a frame with the name of the film remains. [[File:KxayYesngao.PNG|thumbnail|right|The only frame of the film that has survived to this day]]
 
===Cuisine===
===Cuisine===
Tomians traditionally hunters and fishers. They hunt whales, seal, polar bears, birds and fish. Seaweed, berries and roots is also eaten. In winter, the staple foods are stroganina and akutaq (the traditional recipe is made with reindeer milk, raspberries and blueberries). Fish is eaten raw, frozen or dried. Yukola is made from fish that are left for a long period of storage or for long trips, stored in small bags. Caviar and whale meat are considered a delicacy. Water, broths from various fish, reindeer milk and a cocktail made from milk and various berries are used as a drink. Meat products are very often infused with the blood of the animals from which the dish was made.

Tomians believe that food from other cultures is extremely tasteless, so they avoid any meals if they do not have food from Tomian cuisine and even under such conditions they will eat it worse, because they believe that only Tomians can cook Tomian food. This idea reaches such an absurdity that even the water that was not collected by a Tomian, they consider terribly tasteless.
On the first day of the polar night, it is customary to eat fried great auk meat (as a symbol of the death of the day). After the end of the polar night, it is customary to eat fried eggs of the great auk (as a symbol of the rebirth of the day). A few months before the beginning of the polar night, part of the food is canned as reserves.

===Sport===
At the moment, the most popular sport is skiing, people compete in how far they will go on them or how quickly they will reach a specific point. Ice skating is also a fairly popular sport, people compete in how beautiful and filigree movements they are able to perform, how many feelings they can show in their movements.

Until 1894, the competition for the amount of salt water drunk was very popular, however, during one of the competitions in 1894, a certain participant, whose name is unknown, drank so much salt water that after the competition he fell dead.
