Pingetl

Pingetl, known to outsiders as Tepintl, Tipinq or various other names, was a country situated on the Yínoyízh peninsula. The people there spoke the Tepingím language and followed the Noníking religion. It has two de jure capital cities, however the one in which the diarchs meet in is Mok'zhong.

Tribal days
Not much is known about the original Tepingím tribes other than that there was three of them: Mok, Modonk and Mídímíng. They were closely connected and united in 105 to form Pingetl. According to religion, there were three men who founded a tribe each approximately 200-300 years before the year 0.

Triumvirate
In 105, it was disputed who should rule Pingetl. The 'heroes' that founded the original Tepingím tribes had basically everyone as their descendants, and it was too long ago for anyone to know anyway. Thus, the leader of each tribe united to make decisions, but their tribal democracies stayed, leading to an elective triumvirate. Notably, the rulers of the nation met up in Modonk'zhong because it was in the middle of the country, making it the de facto capital. Pingetl recieves a massive population boom. In 110, Tepingím ships encounter Psac. In 112, Wylitarka and Tepintl made contact. Unfortunately, no progress was made due to differences in language. Mok-zhong Níjíyo Jízh-Jízh took it upon himself to decipher the Weskatarkan language. Also in 112, a few Tepingím sailors get lost and found Meng Tetet. Later that year, a bunch of people from Mídímíng'zhong flee north along the coast. In 113, it was discovered that they had set up their own nation: Dongzhiníy. In 114, Pingetl sets up its own military. In 117, Pingetl adopts its own flag and Mok'zhong becomes the de facto capital. In 121, Tetetyízh proposed an alliance between Tetetyízh, Dongzhiníy and Pingetl. The Yojetíp Yíjín Tetet (Tetet Gulf Pact) was formed. In 130, Pingetl adopts the Wylitarkan currency and spreads it across Yínoyízh and Woosan via trade. Adaptations are made: metals, shapes, sizes, worth. Pingetl in particular has a triangular coin to represent the Níjíyok and a hole in it so it can be strung together in unique wallet-like objects. Pingetl names this Tepe Jekí, meaning Trade Object. In 131, The first Tepingím novel was written. It is called The Story of Mejetezh and is set in a fantasy world. Word of the book spreads everywhere, inspiring several nations to build libraries and to write books. The next year, conspiracy theorists begin thinking that this novel is a prophecy.

The Week of Force
In winter of 135, Níjíyo Do'byím, along with every other adult male in Modonk'zhong, was found lying unconscious in a pool of blood. Now nobody from Modonk'zhong can be elected into the Níjíyok. This caused serious revolts across Pingetl, but these were put down by their relatively small military. Tepintl's population decreased by 20% on that fateful month. Pingetl thus changed from an Elective Triumvirate to an Absolute Diarchy. Other countries actually think this was a good thing, as it gave Pingetl a more similar government to theirs. The flag stayed the same, even though there is three dots to symbolise the now defunct Triumvirate. Despite this shift in power, life in Pingetl really didn't change that much since earlier in the month. You were still allowed to criticise the government and most cities outside of Modonk'zhong's sphere of influence were completely undisturbed during the month. The month became dubbed 'The Week of Force', even though it was a month.

The Saapsoyo War
In 136, the Saapsoyo war broke out. More information is available in this video:

The Yínoyízh War
The Yínoyízh War was the war that ended Pingetl. It began in 145, when Haa Aer attacked Zhiníyeyízh. Pingetl misinterpreted the situation as Zhiníyeyízh and its ally Yargenio attacking Haa Aer and its ally Haa Vabv. Pingetl joined the war against Zhiníyeyízh and Yargenio. Wylitarka joined Pingetl for a short time, seizing Tetetyízh and adding it to their Rexonia province and also taking a strip of land on the coast of Zhiníyeyízh. The diarch of Mok, after going insane, began deporting Saapsoyo people to Axin Rogo. Pingetl was eventually defeated, and the diarch of Mok escaped to Planlica, where he started a terrorist organisation called the IA.
