Facts about Tsiamshian
By Hound
Tsiamshian was formed as part of the Treaty Of Denver when the Tsiamshian and Tlingit tribes applied to the Soverign Tribal Council for a land of their won. Rumour has it that the Haida tribe also was about to petition but in a brutal military attack forces loyal to the Tsiamshian wiped out the political leadership of the Haida tribe.
Once Tsiamshian had formed its new govenment set about expelling all Anglos from its borders. After goblinization Tsiamshian also expelled all Meta Humans from its borders despite their tribal affilliation. The govenment brutally supressed the smaller trbes and when John George of the Haida tried to set up a peaceful movemnet for civil rights the organisation was brutally supresses using millitary forces. John George to this day remains under house arrest in an undisclosed millitary complex. After John Georges arrest and the attacks, the Haida National Front formed and started using terroist actions against the government. Tsiamshians actions caused protests by the STC so Tsiamshian seceded from its authority.
By 2053 the Tsiamshian government stood on the edge of bankruptcy. It had stip minned most of its resources away and didn't have the technology to impliment further resource development. So it turned to Mitsuhama Computer Systems and gave then sole mining rights to the region in return for aid. MCT: Tsiamshian is the only mega corporation to opperate within the Tsiamshian borders.
In May 2060 in an attempt to grade the Salish Shidhe resouces, Tsiamshian invaded Salish Shidhe. The invasion lasted only 3 days and the Tsiamshian forces were push back into or beyond there own borders. On the last day of the war a thousand Salish Shidhe and some Tsiamshian soldiers were killed in what is though to have been a biological weapon attack although Tsiamshian denies this. Peace was declaired on the 5th of May 2062.
Tsiamshian is a county with harsh laws and an oppressive regime. Although technically a ribal democracy the electronicly held electons are surely rigged and UN electoral inspectors are refused access to the country. Haida and other smaller tribe are treated as second class citizens and Anglos and Meta Humans are treated worse. Travelling into Tsiamshian is very difficult and Visas are stictly controlled. Tsiamshian opperates a virtual police state and no non Tismashian/Tlingit are allowed to carry weapons or wear armour. Suspects are often know to be executed or to simply disappear.
Tsiamshian still has an eye for invasion of Salish Shidhe but it is one that they would lose in the current climate. They are however trying to convince MCT to offer millitary aid to this (although the Corporate Court would surely stop this)
