The '''Semuyic Shogunate of Zalkent,''' formerly The '''Republic of Zalkent''', is a nation located on the Firesvar continent. Following the dissolution of the [[Burr Federation]] and the subsequent end of the Burr War, the former government was plagued with economic downturn and nationwide revolts due to the devastation of the war. During the year 2153, the Republican Government of Zalkent collapsed and the nation fell into a civil war that would last until 2166. Following the end of the civil war, the Ashigaru family was able to consolidate enough power within the nation, and established the first Zalkentian Shogunate.

The government consists of two institutions, the Shogun and a cabinet along with a general assembly of elected officials. The elected officials have the power to oversee day to day tasks throughout their respective provinces and report to the Shogun, while the Shogun and the cabinet oversee foreign and domestic matters as a whole. If a situation arises that requires immediate action, an assembly is held where both institutions meet together to discuss and set forth a course of action. The Shogun, or in some cases the entire Shogunate family, can be displaced through two distinct methods. The first method is a deliberation and vote held by the most powerful political families in Zalkent, followed by a vote put forth to the public by the general assembly. The second method is a complete overthrowing through ritual combat.

Due to her geographical location, Zalkent has been a melting pot between the cultures of other nations that she borders. This is reflected in the languages spoken and ethnic groups within the population. The larger population centers are primarily Surnic ethnicities while the Lesk capital region is primarily Fuyurikan. Following the Shogun's rise to power, some minor northern territories were added. The ethnicity within these regions primarily consists of Fuyurikan peoples.

The Flag of the Shogunate (2166 - Present Day)

The design of the flag is reminiscent of the legend that the name of the nation is based on. Red represents the hardship that the people have had to go through, blue represents the brotherhood and unity that have formed between the people, with the gold representing prosperity. The star represents strength, willpower, and light that emanates across the nation.

Following the collapse of the Republican government and the establishment of the Ashigaru Shogunate, the Semuyic religious symbol was added to the flag, along with white which represents divinity.
