Kikikoa

Kikikoa is a socialized democratic region on the northwest and central west continent border. It is a primary exporter of medical technologies and supplies. It is one of the most populated Kajin regions of Colanexa, along with Famaselle, Kh’önaa’čaw and Belastrana. Kikikoa had a strong relationship with Kalubio until the Kalubian Civil War, where several of its citizens were kidnapped, tortured, conscripted into forced labour and combat, and killed at the hands of the BBA. It is one of the six regions if the “Kažinov Federatsiya,” or “Federation of the Kajin.” Some notable citizens of Kikikoa include Stefano Belinski, Chernova Kamarova and her daughter Lilya, Alezhja Malkin, the Mafiln twins Aleks and Alena, California Reikovra, and Peter Reinhold Vankori.

Environment
Kikikoa is a massive region landwise. Its environment varies drastically from the northern and southern borders. To the north is primarily tundra and forests coated with light frost. It is a colder temperature than the southern part, which is a mostly tropical jungles and forests, warm and humid. The two sides gradually become more and more alike as they approach.

Ancient History
Before being unified, tribes and empires of Sovietese and Frãci Kajin warred over the territory, pushing back and forth for decades, if not centuries.

Kikikoa’s origins are related to the unification of Metite Famaselle and Sovietese clans to the north, in response to negotiations between Grãdh Famaselle and the newly-arrived Goldbluts from Vfeldnseim. The region’s territory was legally instated June 23rd, 1317 GHC. Kikikoa became a strong trader with the Goldbluts from Vfeldnseim, eventually becoming one of the economical powers of Colanexa.

Modern History and Condition
Kikikoa is a primary exporter of medicinal products and medical tech. It is sometimes known as “Doctor Country” for this reason. Most of its healthcare exports have historically been physical, however new research is opening the way to psychological and mental health resources as well.

Kikikoa had several foreign students in Schremn kidnapped or forced into Kalubio during the latter's civil war. Many of them were killed in the conflict, either as collateral damage or as part of BBA coverup. This sparked harsh reactions from Kikikoa, who condemned the violence and Föcan Reinder Stuhy's inability to keep the conflict contained. Damages were further strained during the Belinski Crisis of 2002, where Kikikoa and Kalubio nearly went to war.

People and Culture
There is a strong racial disparity between the Frãci and Sovietese Kajin of the region, especially towards the Frãci-majority south. Sovietese Kajin are often secondary to Frãci for positions of education and employment, and are frequently discouraged from using their native language(s).

One of the most detrimental results of this racism is the emergence of racialized gangs in the central province. The two major gangs are the “Sjeverbravstva” (“Bravstva” for short) and “La Bã'd-ãferr,” which are prone to violent clashes over territory and revenge killings. The government has taken harsh measures against both, though many argue the Bravstva faces more for being a predominantly Sovietese gang.

Following the Gamian War, and especially at the subsequent turn of the century, significant cultural shifts in Kikikan youth are beginning to unfold. Shifts in fashion, racial treatment, socio-political views, economic practices, and media are taking hold especially in Nuvöbökur, but spreading to other areas regionwide and even beyond. This was especially augmented after BBA activity was exposed by Kalubian insurgents and the truth of the Kalubian Civil War and Waɱskáwy became global news.

Drug abuse is slowly becoming a crisis, not without help from dealers in gangs. Hard psychedelics and opioids are the most commonly used among Kikikan youth.

Languages
The official languages of Kikikoa are Frãpal and Sjeverköw. Frãsov is a common creole language spoken by youth, especially in larger cities such as Nuvobokur. Ba'ait and Xazukow (Western Kohl) are minor languages that while appearing, are limited in use.

Ethnic Composition
The primary racial demographics of Kikikoa are Frãco and Sovietese Kajin. These two groups form well over ninety percent of Kikikoa's population. There are communities of Taejo-Ghel and Skalvolk Kajin as immigrant communities however. Kikikoa also has small pockets of Goldblut and Western Kalu-bloods.
