Zimor, officially the Zimori Republic, is a nation in northeastern Doren. It was formed in 2169 after the Zimori Autonomous Republic was dissolved, a move that the [tbd] condemned, prompting them to declare independence. Its predecessor, the Zimor Ascendancy, was established in the 2070s by Sovies who emigrated from Sanctum. At its peak, the Ascendancy ruled the northern half of modern-day Dorislav before collapsing.
Etymology

Geography
Zimor's terrain is mostly hilly plains. Its capital, Kobyeda, sits on top of a cliff that makes amphibious assaults nearly impossible to conduct.
Politics
Foreign Relations
Relations between Zimor and Dorislav are quite tense. They went to war in 2169, which saw hundreds of thousands dead on both sides, the former's casualties being mostly civilians.

Zimor's population is more than 75% Zimori. A small portion of its population is Dorislavian.
More than 75% of its population speaks Zimori, a dialect of Sovie. The remaining 25% or less speaks Dorislavian. Some consider Zimori to be a separate language because of how far it has diverged from the Valenian dialect spoken in Valenia. Despite being a Sanctome language, it is mistakenly assumed by some to be a Doreno-Veiidi language at first glance, as it uses the same script as Dorislavian. In the 2110s, an effort to change the script began. However, there were disagreements on what letter or digraph should represent certain sounds. One example was the voiced velar nasal (ŋ): many suggested that this sound be represented by Нг (En followed by Ge), while some suggested that Ң (En with descender) represent this sound. Eventually, they settled on Ң, much to the disappointment of proponents of Нг.

No longer exists, was wiped out in the first months of the Zimori War of Independence.

History
Pre-2070s

2074: Persecution of Owlians and conflict
In 2074, Owlians were being persecuted in Zimor. They were accused of "contributing to their death spiral". Widely condemned by Elysium, Zimor responded by cutting all ties to Elysium and accusing them of "mocking their religion for far too long and calling them heretics".[1] Later, Grestin launched a series of airstrikes on Zimor. The Zimori Air Force tried to intercept the bombers; however, they dove into the ground and were thought to have crashed.[2] Later, this was revealed to be false: they did not crash during the dive, and instead went full throttle and climbed to high altitude and managed to return to Grestin safely, thanks to their high top speed exceeding Mach 3.[3]
Charlestonia also cut off supplies to Zimori military bases within their country and began an assault, the results of which are unknown.[4]
2169-2173
