The '''Senkheri Confederacy''' is a sovereign confederacy encompassing numerous ethnolinguistically related [[Skantoans|Skantoan]] tribes inhabiting the eponymous continent of Senkher and the northernmost portion of the [[continent of Saikhan]]. Senkher is the most decentralized of Skantos' major nations (aside from Mosonaral which entirely lacks a central government) as most Tribes part of the Confederacy are essentially independent in all but name, with the most populous [[Agnaqiul Tribe]] serving as the capital of the Confederacy and the seat of the overall Chief of the entire Confederacy (thus additionally holding the title of 'Annerpaaq' to differentiate them from other chiefs). Senkher is uniquely divided into two nearly equal 'nations' within its territory, with 'Western Senkher' encompassing the tribes of continental Senkher and 'Eastern Senkher' encompassing the tribes of northern Saikhan, with the two halves having remarkably different cultures despite their many similarities and common ancestry originating from Western Senkher. | |||
Senkher borders the other paramount nation of Saikhan to the southeast, alongside bordering several other more minor nations such as [[Qankuli]], [[Kasa-Kyolmik]], and the [[Crystal Empire]]. While the modern Confederacy was reestablished in 541 CE, previous Confederacies have reigned over a similar area since 7105 BCE, with the longest break in such a system starting in 159 CE (until 541) due to the eruption of Mount Karakoram causing planet-wide instability and disturbances. | |||

The Senkheri Confederacy is home to two distinct cultural groups the 'Western Senkheri' group practiced in Senkher itself, and the younger 'Eastern Senkheri' group practiced in northern Saikhan, with the most notable difference being the higher importance of nobility and hereditary leadership in the West and a higher focus on egalitarianism and leaders being 'respected persons' in the east. The west is much more centralized, finding itself ruled by 'Chiefs' which serve as leaders of larger 'Chiefdoms' (generally 'tribal' polities based around familial kinship networks) with the Chief of the Confederacy being the most influential figure within their culture, while the east is much more informal with each local chief (which are moreso 'elected' until death or resignation rather than being hereditary) being generally only held with major importance within their own Chiefdom. The west is culturally much more stratified, having strict patriarchal gender-roles brought forth by their home's harsh climate which lead to the hunting men rising to prominence while women primarily remained as homemakers (though their gender-roles mainly apply to 'social function' rather than how relationships and marriages operate thanks to a degree of individualism), while such a distinction is much less pronounced or even completely nonexistent in the east. Other major Senkheri beliefs include arranged marriages (exclusive to the west), strict social norms and expectations (more prominent in the west), a generally nomadic way of life (generally universal), a high religious reverence via [[Senkheri Folk Religion]] (more prominent in the west), and valuing generosity (more prominent in the east). | |||
Major cities in western Senkher include the capital of [[Agnaqiul]] alongside [[Aslimang]], [[Laangjua Village]], [[Luamai Village]], [[Saansia]], and [[Tenequ]], while major cities in eastern Senkher include the local capital of [[Vuvkuav]] alongside [[Anullangani]], the [[Grove of the Divine]], [[Gulaasialsiti]], [[Imiuumak]], [[Jinjuungao]], [[Katingani]], [[Nigijulinga]], [[Nuatsis]], and [[Siul-Jibian]]. | |||

Nearly the entirety of Senkher (proper) is covered in vast tundras and mountains, with only very limited coastal areas being home to arable or sub-arctic land. Senkher is surrounded by the [[Tengis Ocean]] to the north and east, the [[Saikhan Sea]] to the south, and the narrow [[Fubing Strait]] to the southeast which separates it from Saikhan. The western half of Senkher alongside the centre is covered in tall mountain chains which make it the most mountainous of Skantos' four continents despite the planet's tallest known peak being located in Saikhan, while Senkher holds the second tallest known point at [[Mount Jaslem]].

Eastern Senkher on the other hand is not located on continental Senkher, instead being situated in northern Saikhan (which is further described at "[[Continent of Saikhan]]").

The Senkheri Confederacy is a sovereign confederacy encompassing numerous ethnolinguistically related Skantoan tribes inhabiting the eponymous continent of Senkher and the northernmost portion of the continent of Saikhan. Senkher is the most decentralized of Skantos' major nations (aside from Mosonaral which entirely lacks a central government) as most Tribes part of the Confederacy are essentially independent in all but name, with the most populous Agnaqiul Tribe serving as the capital of the Confederacy and the seat of the overall Chief of the entire Confederacy (thus additionally holding the title of 'Annerpaaq' to differentiate them from other chiefs). Senkher is uniquely divided into two nearly equal 'nations' within its territory, with 'Western Senkher' encompassing the tribes of continental Senkher and 'Eastern Senkher' encompassing the tribes of northern Saikhan, with the two halves having remarkably different cultures despite their many similarities and common ancestry originating from Western Senkher.
Senkher borders the other paramount nation of Saikhan to the southeast, alongside bordering several other more minor nations such as Qankuli, Kasa-Kyolmik, and the Crystal Empire. While the modern Confederacy was reestablished in 541 CE, previous Confederacies have reigned over a similar area since 7105 BCE, with the longest break in such a system starting in 159 CE (until 541) due to the eruption of Mount Karakoram causing planet-wide instability and disturbances.
Culture
The Senkheri Confederacy is home to two distinct cultural groups the 'Western Senkheri' group practiced in Senkher itself, and the younger 'Eastern Senkheri' group practiced in northern Saikhan, with the most notable difference being the higher importance of nobility and hereditary leadership in the West and a higher focus on egalitarianism and leaders being 'respected persons' in the east. The west is much more centralized, finding itself ruled by 'Chiefs' which serve as leaders of larger 'Chiefdoms' (generally 'tribal' polities based around familial kinship networks) with the Chief of the Confederacy being the most influential figure within their culture, while the east is much more informal with each local chief (which are moreso 'elected' until death or resignation rather than being hereditary) being generally only held with major importance within their own Chiefdom. The west is culturally much more stratified, having strict patriarchal gender-roles brought forth by their home's harsh climate which lead to the hunting men rising to prominence while women primarily remained as homemakers (though their gender-roles mainly apply to 'social function' rather than how relationships and marriages operate thanks to a degree of individualism), while such a distinction is much less pronounced or even completely nonexistent in the east. Other major Senkheri beliefs include arranged marriages (exclusive to the west), strict social norms and expectations (more prominent in the west), a generally nomadic way of life (generally universal), a high religious reverence via Senkheri Folk Religion (more prominent in the west), and valuing generosity (more prominent in the east).
Major cities in western Senkher include the capital of Agnaqiul alongside Aslimang, Laangjua Village, Luamai Village, Saansia, and Tenequ, while major cities in eastern Senkher include the local capital of Vuvkuav alongside Anullangani, the Grove of the Divine, Gulaasialsiti, Imiuumak, Jinjuungao, Katingani, Nigijulinga, Nuatsis, and Siul-Jibian.
Geography
Nearly the entirety of Senkher (proper) is covered in vast tundras and mountains, with only very limited coastal areas being home to arable or sub-arctic land. Senkher is surrounded by the Tengis Ocean to the north and east, the Saikhan Sea to the south, and the narrow Fubing Strait to the southeast which separates it from Saikhan. The western half of Senkher alongside the centre is covered in tall mountain chains which make it the most mountainous of Skantos' four continents despite the planet's tallest known peak being located in Saikhan, while Senkher holds the second tallest known point at Mount Jaslem. Most major settlements in Senkher are concentrated around its shore along the Saikhan Sea and Fubing Strait due to its more temperate climate and easier access to trade, with only a few smaller tribes residing further inland.
Eastern Senkher on the other hand is not located on continental Senkher, instead being situated in northern Saikhan (which is further described at "Continent of Saikhan"). Despite its smaller population (mainly due to being settled later and having poorer trade connections), Eastern Senkher is much warmer climate-wise (with only ~70% of its landmass being covered by tundras) and is home to some slightly warmer climates within which a majority of Senkher's limited agriculture is preformed.
Government and Politics
The Senkheri Confederacy is a confederal tribal monarchy where all executive power is concentrated into the Chief of Agnaqiul and their Advisory Council which acts as a kind-of legislature located in western Saikhan, where the Confederacy's government holds comparatively significant influence as while the other tribes outside of Agnaqiul in the west are extremely loosely governed they are still under some influence of the Chief, the tribes of Eastern Senkher are nearly completely independent of any governing authority beside the bare minimum. Beyond Agnaqiul, there are various other Senkheri tribes with varying level of sovereignty ruled by their own chiefs which are either appointed hereditarily (in the west) or via community consensus (in the east).
Administrative Divisions
As previously described, the Senkheri Confederacy consists of numerous tribes which can be more simply divided into those situated in Western Senkher with considerably more Agnaqiulan influence, and those situated in Eastern Senkher which are essentially an independent confederacy onto themselves due to their distance from the capital and cultural differences.
