Chinamshi (Yàen Dòe: Xȇid nạm xé [ɕɪid˧˦˨ nɑm˨ ɕə˨˦]), officially the Kingdom of Chinamshi (Yediv: Xȇid nạm beh xè cèo [ɕɪid˧˦˨ nɑm˨ bɤ˧ ɕə˦˨ ɟø˦˨]), is a constituent country part of Chelgyu and Chinamshi located in the Draconic Islands, situated between Chelgyu, Dhwer and Tzulhon. Chinamshi consists of a main island, biggest in the confederation, and multiple small ones off the coasts of the main island.
Etymology
History
The first evidence of human presence in Chinamshi dates to around XXX years ago.
Pre-Cananganam contact Chinamshi was mainly ruled by 6 to 18 groups of people, with settled territories, though infighting and battles between these groups were not uncommon. Agriculture was uncommon, because of battles and constantly changing territorial holds, and society was based on hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Upon Cananganam contact territorial holds were solidified with individuals becoming rulers of these lands, sometimes even multiple people would rule over a single or multiple territories at once. Battling between these territories lessened though several smaller areas were absorbed into bigger ones either by force or by peaceful means, often due to either protection or food.

Architecture
Early Chinamese architecture was dominantly built out of wood, sometimes with stone foundations on higher ranked buildings. Before the introduction of Qonklese styled architecture, Chinamese architecture had an hierarchical building style. The shape of the roof predominantly dictated the importance of the building, be it for higher ranking officials or for gathering spaces. The most complex roofing styles were only allowed to be constructed for the buildings the chief resided in or worked at, except for the Great Hall, burned down in the 15th century, which at the time had one of the biggest and the most complex roof shapes in all of Chinamshi. The introduction of Qonklese architecture and the relocation of the capital to then newly built Ji Gaiq, present day Naigon, discontinued that hierarchy rule as the new capital was built mainly in the Qonklese architectural style which introduced halls, colonnades, dormers, gables and so on. It was also here where the modern city planning began in Chinamshi. The old capital was centered around a park, with a circle of houses of the court facing inwards. The house of the Chief and the Great Hall was located opposite of the park and the court housing as symbolism of a juxtaposition of power during the time. However, many historians argue that this was purely coincidental and that the houses were built randomly to suit the needs at a time; developing the capital naturally instead of having any city planning realized. Even so, traces of city planning could be found in the old capital: bathhouses and dining halls, as well as public kitchens and taverns, were often centerpieces surrounded by a plaza of sorts that allowed the buildings to be noticeable from further away, acting as landmarks within the city.
