Kentsland

The People's Republic of Kentsland is a sovereign one-party state in northern Gungju. Formerly a colony of Gaoxiong, Kentsland was granted independence after the Eulhae War and the collapse of the Ying Dynasty of Gaoxiong in 1941, creating the Kingdom of Kentsland. After decades of instability, ethnic revolt and political upheaval, a successful coup in 1996, led by General Lisowski, turning the nation into a military junta. In 1998, Lisowski and his supporters established the People's Republic of Kentsland and established sweeping social and economic reforms.

=Etymology= When the Gaoxiong colonizers arrived, they referred to the inhabitants as poor men (Qióng rén). The first natives they encountered, The Toles, however, were unable to properly pronounce the name and instead took to saying Kents and, eventually, were referring to their homeland as Kentsland as well. Despite the derogatory origination, the name "Kentsland" became a unifying theme between the various ethnic groups and was taken as the title of the country following independence.
