Tazkuytai /tæzˈkutaɪ/ is a feudal monarchy and former refugee nation primarily made up of native Tynzeu people. It stretches from the city of Verits to the capital Tazkuytai. It closely borders Firgaards to its west and Riaen to its south. Tazkuytai stands as the most far-eastern vassal of the Empire of Vukodlak, being initiated into the Empire under the Empress Kresimira Horachek, may she rest in peace. Tazkuytai is the second High Kingdom of Vukodlak (in waiting) and previously held the rank of High Thanedom in the Vukodlakie Empire. Tazkuytai originally stood as a refugee state of the Tynzeu people and other displaced peoples who sought to escape the 'zu kutuva' (barbarians) of the farlands and later evolved into a feudal society.

Culture

Tynzeu culture is most highlighted by two primary aspects: massive support for monarchy and a terrible fear of 'zu ti'kutuva' (the barbarians).

Militarisation

Due to the Kutuvakol (barbarian fear), large private stores of armour and weapons are personally owned by most subjects of Tazkuytai allowing for the Tynzeu to rapidly arm in war times, as seen in the Sternofel-NSF War. This war in particular initiated the Kutuvakol to its peak since after the long march due to the intervention of mercenaries deemed by the general populace to be of the same breed as the barbarians from their own homeland leading to further stockpiling.

Tazkuytai is generally considered to have the most ready and capable fighting force inside of Vukodlak.

Monarchism

The people of Tazkuytai almost entirely subscribe to a political philosophy of the Kèdeuchâdri (hero-king) whereby the monarch should derive his authority from continuous acts of bravery. It is seen as a great sign of weakness for a monarch to not directly participate in a war.

Monarchism in Tazkuytai particularly peaked with the death of the Empress Kresimira which resulted in an estates-general delivering an ultimatum to Auteus Sekuydu to demand the elevation of Tazkuytai to a High Kingdom of Vukodlak or the assembly would crown Auteus themselves. Support for the monarchy has also increased with the revitalisation of Revolutionism; seeing a threat to the Tynzeu way of life led to the collapse for plans of an Assembly of the People.

Architecture

The architecture of Tazkuytai (city) primarily consists of baroque and haussmannian styles, focusing upon grandiose buildings that provide plentiful living space for residents of the town. However, elsewhere in the nation are gothic styles, for example in the Grasyn castle.

Economy

The Tynzeu economy focuses primarily upon the creation and sale of armour, weapons and potions leading to what has been named a "XP economy" within Tazkuytai whereby the guilds of Tazkuytai take XP as payment at a 'social discount'. Furthermore, there is limited conventional capital enterprise within Tazkuytai that focuses primarily on the production and sale of building resources with Haste in particular focusing on the production of resources involved in redstone machines.

History

Tazkuytai was originally formed by refugees coming from the far-east, leaving the ancestral homeland of the Tynzeu
