Zbeshka (Zbeshkan: Zbeška, IPA: /zbeʃka/), officially the The Most Victorious, Stalwart and Bountiful Duchy of Zbeshka, is a country located in southern Atsiq, around the Ton river valley. Its closest neighbors are Ivorsul. The valley was for centuries under the rule of the Atsiq Empire, but due to the difficulty of access caused by the Western Atsiq mountain range, a distinct identity and language emerged (much like in other regions of the continent), leading to ethnic tensions in the Empire. These tensions culminated in the First Atsiq War, where many Duchies within the Empire gained independence, Zbeshka included. In the 20th century, the Empire's expansionist spree brought the nation back under Imperial control. However, once more the ethnic differences between the people's of Atsiq caused unrest, administrative inefficiency and endless corruption, which strained the economy and loyalty of the armed forces, leading to the slow collapse of the Empire once again. Zbeshka and its people are known for being industrious and less militaristic than other former Atsiq Empire duchies.
Etymology
Zbeška comes from Khalbic /sbaʒẽsŋə/, which by extent comes from the Proto-Atsiq /ɬwodɮãsŋ̩/ meaning "of the Valley". The Proto-Atsiq genitive suffix /-ãsŋ̩/ is normally lost in the Khalbic branch, being replaced by /-ət/ (Zbeshkan -up), but is preserved in certain toponyms and personal names.
