'''Tuanmali''' (IPA: / | '''Tuanmali''' (IPA: /tua:n.ˈma.li/), officially the '''Independent Union of Tuanmali Republics''', is a country located on the northeast coast of [[Boroso]], bordered to the east by the [[Taanttu Gulf]]. [[Bavkirak]] borders it to the northeast, [[Taanttu]] directly to the north, [[Dhwer]] to the northwest, [[Lhavres]] to the west, and [[Mwamba]] to the southwest and south. | ||

Prior to the arrival of the [[Tuanmali people]], the area of modern Tuanmali was largely inhabited by Mwambans. The Tuanmali dalar are not native to Boroso, but rather originated in Alpa. Around 500 CE, the Tuanmali migrated from Alpa to Miraria as nomadic fishermen and sailors, drifting by boat along the eastern and southern coasts of Miraria before reaching Boroso. Though initially living and traveling almost exclusively on their ships, a friendly political climate led to the founding of several settlements along the coast of northeast Boroso circa 1000 AD, first as temporary gathering places for clans or as trade markets with land dwellers, becoming permanently inhabited by dalar over time. | |||
In the late 1300s, Bavkirak conquered much of modern-day Tuanmali. In response, most dalar moved south, consolidating in the area of [[Wīcos]], which had previously been controlled by Mwambans. [[Jozon]] also greatly expanded at this time, rapidly growing from a small fishing village to an established port city. While always nominally under Bavkir rule, the large numbers of Mwamban humans and Tuanmali dalar in Wīcos meant the city always maintained a certain amount of cultural distinction. In the early 1700s, as the Bavkirak Empire began to collapse, Wīcos and the surrounding area became nominally independent. Dalar gained increasing political control, though the population remained split between Mwamban humans, Bavkir humans, and Tuanmali dalar. | |||
In 1829, the city became subjugated again when the [[Mwamban Empire]] expanded into all of modern-day Tuanmali. Popular independence movements gathered steam in the late 1840s, led mainly by dalar as the region's human population had been depleted by the Mwamban army draft. In 1862, with the Mwamban Empire under external pressure from multiple fronts, the dalar-led movement successfully retook Wīcos and Jozon, seizing a significant portion of the Mwamban fleet that had been stationed there. | |||
Throughout the late 1800s, Tuanmali solidified power, establishing relationships with other post-Mwamban states and incorporating some into the federation. Tuanmali's modern borders were established with the 1921 annexation of [[Kīmi Kīmis We]] and [[Altūnwelēnīn]]. | |||

Tuanmali (IPA: /tua:n.ˈma.li/), officially the Independent Union of Tuanmali Republics, is a country located on the northeast coast of Boroso, bordered to the east by the Taanttu Gulf. Bavkirak borders it to the northeast, Taanttu directly to the north, Dhwer to the northwest, Lhavres to the west, and Mwamba to the southwest and south.

History
Prior to the arrival of the Tuanmali people, the area of modern Tuanmali was largely inhabited by Mwambans. The Tuanmali dalar are not native to Boroso, but rather originated in Alpa. Around 500 CE, the Tuanmali migrated from Alpa to Miraria as nomadic fishermen and sailors, drifting by boat along the eastern and southern coasts of Miraria before reaching Boroso. Though initially living and traveling almost exclusively on their ships, a friendly political climate led to the founding of several settlements along the coast of northeast Boroso circa 1000 AD, first as temporary gathering places for clans or as trade markets with land dwellers, becoming permanently inhabited by dalar over time.
In the late 1300s, Bavkirak conquered much of modern-day Tuanmali. In response, most dalar moved south, consolidating in the area of Wīcos, which had previously been controlled by Mwambans. Jozon also greatly expanded at this time, rapidly growing from a small fishing village to an established port city. While always nominally under Bavkir rule, the large numbers of Mwamban humans and Tuanmali dalar in Wīcos meant the city always maintained a certain amount of cultural distinction. In the early 1700s, as the Bavkirak Empire began to collapse, Wīcos and the surrounding area became nominally independent. Dalar gained increasing political control, though the population remained split between Mwamban humans, Bavkir humans, and Tuanmali dalar.
In 1829, the city became subjugated again when the Mwamban Empire expanded into all of modern-day Tuanmali. Popular independence movements gathered steam in the late 1840s, led mainly by dalar as the region's human population had been depleted by the Mwamban army draft.

Most Tuanmali are Devotionist, but among dalar, syncretism with dalar kowut is common--specifically, the five-god form, with Jet being identified with the Unnamed God of kowut as the ultimate creator of the universe.

Humans generally follow a more "pure" form of Devotionism.
When Sanmran dalar began immigrating to Tuanmali in the 1900s, they brought with them Sanmran kowut, which has grown to mild popularity. Tuanmali practitioners of Sanmran kowut tend to be more strongly "religious" than Sanmrans, strictly observing holidays and practicing rituals that in Sanmra are generally only performed by the most devout and by temple priests and priestesses.
