'''The Vamu''', officially known as the '''''Wayna Vamu
The present nation of the Vamu was created from a union of various states in the 19th century, with the capital of [[Qusqo|Qusiku]] being selected the seat of power of the collective due to its religious importance to all constituent polities. Later, a merger occurred with the [[Ware Awaiteroa]], with semi-autonomy to the erstwhile state. Prior to the existence of the present nation, a great variety of cultures and civilizations emerged in the area over a history of 10,000 years of inhabitation. Over history, 4 major migrations of groups have occurred into the area of the Vamu, resulting in the present ethnic diversity.
The Vamu has a large variety of climates for it's size, from the rolling [[Taiwo Coastal Plains|Taiwo]] and [[Awai Coastal Plains]] in the east and north, to the dense [[Tembe Jungle]] in the centre, to the sole mountain range in the nation, the [[Qulla Range]], adjacent to the narrow [[Chupa Jungle]] of the west. The equator passes through the southernmost part of it. It lacks an oceanic coastline, but it has a large coastline on Lake Ciyuga.▼

The Vamu is a member of the [[International Concord]]. Its economy is considered one of the most equal in the world, with a very high stability, this is due to its unorthodox systems of high government control. It has become the biggest exporter of [[Kawsaysiqiy|kawasiy]] (Animation style created in Vamu) and [[mayisiqiy]] (Graphic Novels created in the Vamu) with entertainment becoming a huge part of the Vamun economy in the past century. The Vamu's greatest contributions to the world are motorized flight and the [[Llika]] (Internet). Most of its population practices [[Cukuy]], a religion mostly endemic to the region.▼

[[Kunturapuy|Intivaw Kunturapuy]] (Qusikanu: {{QSc|kntrpy}}) has been the ruler of the Vamu since 2500 XY ([[Kutura Era]] 1), after succeeding the previous Intivaw Aqapulqaw who abdicated due to his health. He is the second Intivaw of the House of Cian Cian, after the second Intivaw of the Vamu [[Qhapaq]]. He is also the second youngest Intivaw, being 24 at coronation.
The Vamu is the birthplace of the Internet.

=== The Reign of Qharunq the IInd and Industrialisation ===
The
The first steps of industrialisation was taken when the first steam-powered machinery, a sawmill, was constructed in the town of [[Qochiqulque|Qochiqulkuwe]]. The first factories were constructed in this era, and working at these state-owned factories, known as Tapaconchas, was made one of the duties which could be assigned to a Mit'a worker - an action that would eventually become one of the core works of the Mit'a labour system. This era was also marked by an international and intranational cultural exchange, between cultures of the Vamu and between foreign cultures and Vamun cultures. This exchange was primarily due to the creation and standardization of the [[Ailamit'a]], wherein workers were employed year round. With the Ailamit'a workforce being primarily dedicated to running the factories, this caused a mass intranational migration between the Awai, Taiwo and Kakanqui regions. This resulted in the creation of various hybrid cultures within these regions, and later resulted in the creation of various forms of art and music, such as the Kakanqui-Awai [[kawasiy]]-[[mayisiqiy]] style.
Near the end of the reign, the first [[Qayachatakas]]
Also near to the end of his reign, the Intivaw approved the formation of the [[Ajachamarka Tantaschiqa]] (International Corporate Conglomerate), which created the Vamu's International commercial corporations such as the [[Masa Franchise]] and the [[Qu-Kola]] Brand.

== Demographics ==
The Vamu has a population of 44,642,912 as per the [[2511 Wayupay]]. The population growth of the Vamu has been slow compared ot the rest of the world, due to backward agricultural practices and high human development. It increased significantly with the integration of the West Chupa area as a protectorate, then formal suyu due to the Ciyugan Civil War. The population growth rate was measured to be 0.30%, and average life expectancy was 82.9 years, the highest in the region. The ethnic composition was found to be 32.2% Kakanqui, 26.4% Awai, 21.4% Uhuwara, 12% Taiwo and 9% Chupa (1.9% East Chupa and 7.1% West Chupa). The Chupa population increased greatly after the integration of the West Chupa area, necessitating an impromptu census conducted 6 years before it would be in regular circumstances. For religions and other persuasions, 74.1% of people reported that they followed Cukuy and associated faiths, 11.7% reported they followed Takol beliefs, 8.1% reported no religious affiliation or atheism/agnosticism and other forms of the same, 5.1% reported Ruckinism and 1% reported Other Faiths and Persuasions. There has been a slow decline in Cukuy and Takol as more have begun to identify as atheist/agnostic. Though old Etaruzo Ruckinism of the Ciyugan community has declined, Ruckinism as a whole has seen a significant increase due to the West Chupa integration. In Other Faiths, Orderist faiths are the most prominent, with around 0.6% of the population, primarily from the Cralasian expatriate communities. It has seen a steady decline however, from deradicalization of succesive generations of Vamun Cralasians. Sutonese beliefs are the second most followed faith of the Other Faiths category, primarily from the Sutonese community of kawasiy animators.

==== Jawillumaqan ====
Jawillumaqan, (Qusikanu: {{QSc|ywhmkn}}, lit. 'Oil Wrestling') is a sport where fighters are covered head to toe in oil and set to fight on a smooth stage, usually a marble platform, surrounded with a moat of water. The aim of the sport is to push your opponent into the water while still maintaining your balance and not slipping off yourself. It is a popular sport in the Greater Kakanqui region, with the sport being associated in the Ueyiayllu as a royal sport (the [[Intivaw Acapulcao]] was a famed wrestler in the sport before his coronation, and he would regularly inaugurate competitions by fighting in a match himself). Official tournaments have become more common in the past century, with the gradual competitization of sport.

The Vamu is a mix of real-world cultures, the predominant ones being - Inca (with heavy influence from Quechua and Aymara), Amazonian cultures (mainly on the Uhuwaran cultures), Ainu & Japonic Cultures (In the Taiwo), and lastly, Maori & Polynesian cultures (on the Awai). While initially I'd modelled it on the Inca Empire, later on I incorporated other cultures as I realized that there were other major terrains in my nation. The lack of a domestic currency was a choice based on the Inca Empire, which eventually led to possibly the most convoluted and confusing economy in the entirety of Xomni, incomprehensible to many and even I don't completely understand it.
The Vamu itself is also notorious for never being referred to correctly, always being called by it's old name,
