==Introduction==<br />
<br />
The Kingdom of Kudawan is the second Micronation established by Tom Kap. The Kingdom of Kudawan borders [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well as Denmark. Kudawan was established due to the desire to own another micronation, aswell as too create a federal monarchy.<br />
<br />
===Etymology===<br />
Kudawan come from the Yusufic and Kayut word Ocean side. This symbolizes Kudawans proximity to the ocean and Kudawans different provinces and districts scattered across the globe.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Currency===<br />
The government of Kudawan has yet to establish a national currency. Currently the Danish Kroner is in circulation, and too lesser extent the Kayut Dinari (Used in Kayutsastan a Millanian Autonomous Region that borders Kudawan). The King however has mentioned the idea of a currency that would be divided into 240 cents, not 100 like the decimal currencies.<br />
<br />
==Transportation==<br />
<br />
===Railways===<br />
A planned rail link between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan is underway. The train would be a model H0 Streetcar. Near Kota Raja aswell as right next to the border is Osterport Train Station, which serves the Metro, Suburban lines, and national railways.<br />
<br />
===Roads===<br />
There are no paved roads but in some areas of Kota Raja (District 2) there is a bunch of dirt paths, which serve as a transportation network. In Kotayor, their is a small road down a hill made with stone steps. This road/path is called Kotayor Frontier Road 1, and it serves Terrasa, Kotayor, Kudawan and Mount Ambak Town, Jerak, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]].<br />
<br />
===Pedestrian===<br />
Kudawan is most friendly for pedestrians, especially in the Kotayor region. One of the most interesting parts for pedestrians is Terassa border village, near the Kayut border. Sights around there include Mount Ambak and Tree Nymph Gold Tree.<br />
<br />
===Biking=== <br />
Biking is also a mode of transport. Biking area include District 2 of Kota Raja, which comprises of Ostre Anleg Park. <br />
<br />
===Air Travel===<br />
The nearest airport is Copenhagen Airport, which serves as a main entry point to travelers wishing to enter Kudawan. Before entering Kudawan, one must enter Denmark legally.<br />
<br />
==Culture==<br />
<br />
===Languages===<br />
Kudawan is a Federal Kingdom with 18 subjects. The population speaks English fluently, and many people speak Spanish fluently. German is also spoken by fewer people, aswell as Indonesian. Arabic is spoken among the muslim community. Only 3 people speak Yusufic and Kayut, making them languages that are protected by the government. After the 2021 revival, steps have been taken to revive Yusufic and Kudanese Kayut. Yusufic has been classified as a traditional language, which should not be spoken informally. The Lingua franca is English, spoken worldwide.<br />
<br />
===Kudanese Malay===<br />
Kudanese Malay is a dialect of the standard Malay language, spoken in Indonesia, Brunei, Malaysia, and Singapore. It leans more to the Indonesian dialect of the Malay language, due to the reason that many of Kudawans citizens are Indonesian. Due to Indonesian and Malaysian originating from the language Malay, the Kudanese government considered it appropriate to classify it as Kudanese Malay. A unique feature of the language is the use of certain Kayut words, which almost makes the language a creole. When government documents are publish in Kudanese Malay, they are normally written in Jawi script, which is one of the many co official scripts used in Kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Kudanese Kayut===<br />
Kudanese Kayut is a dialect of the Kayut language (Bahsa Kayutsa), spoken in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] aswell as in the now defunct rebel state [[Conservative Kayut Republic]]. The difference between the languages is minimal, with some words being different. Also, Kudanese Kayut uses the letter (é), while in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] that letter is not used. This table highlights the most common vocabulary differences between the two dialects. <br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with Kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
Due to the multi religious blend, many religions have impacted Kayut/Kudanese Animism, a local religion emphasizing Spirit and Nature worship. In Kota Raja, a temple to the rock guardian (Tépék Gung) can be found. It is of regular tradition to offer Joss Sticks, Candy, and Fruit. The Kudanese government has protected Kayut Animism as a piece of Kudanese cultural heritage. Kayut Animism is also practiced in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. A traditional Kayut custom practiced in both nations is Jénji, Kayut for Recognition. Recognition means recognizing everything in nature has a spirit in it, and that one must respect certain areas. This belief has lead to the widespread belief of believing certain places in nature bring luck and blessings.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Buké Legal (Book of Laws)===<br />
Most laws in Kudawan are based upon the Buké Legal, or Book of Laws. These Laws are recorded down in the book to serve as a pillar of the countries legal system. The book was written by HM the King, and its significance is extremely important as it's considered the backbone of Kudanese society and how Kudanese people should act. It has been described as a Constitution highlighting how the country works, and a collection of the nation's most important laws. <br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

<br />
Many Kudanese also pay attention to the politics of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] due to the fact that many Kudanese citizens hold dual citizenship with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well. This is due to the fact that many laws in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] are similar to Kudawan, however, unlike Kudawan, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] has a democratically elected Legislature (Almuygan).<br />
<br />
==Foreign Affairs==<br />

<br />
===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />

<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area.

==Introduction==<br />
<br />
The Kingdom of Kudawan is the second Micronation established by Tom Kap. The Kingdom of Kudawan borders [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well as Denmark. Kudawan was established due to the desire to own another micronation, aswell as too create a federal monarchy.<br />
<br />
===Etymology===<br />
Kudawan come from the Yusufic and Kayut word Ocean side. This symbolizes Kudawans proximity to the ocean and Kudawans different provinces and districts scattered across the globe.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Currency===<br />
The government of Kudawan has yet to establish a national currency. Currently the Danish Kroner is in circulation, and too lesser extent the Kayut Dinari (Used in Kayutsastan a Millanian Autonomous Region that borders Kudawan). The King however has mentioned the idea of a currency that would be divided into 240 cents, not 100 like the decimal currencies.<br />
<br />
==Transportation==<br />
<br />
===Railways===<br />
A planned rail link between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan is underway. The train would be a model H0 Streetcar. Near Kota Raja aswell as right next to the border is Osterport Train Station, which serves the Metro, Suburban lines, and national railways.<br />
<br />
===Roads===<br />
There are no paved roads but in some areas of Kota Raja (District 2) there is a bunch of dirt paths, which serve as a transportation network. In Kotayor, their is a small road down a hill made with stone steps. This road/path is called Kotayor Frontier Road 1, and it serves Terrasa, Kotayor, Kudawan and Mount Ambak Town, Jerak, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]].<br />
<br />
===Pedestrian===<br />
Kudawan is most friendly for pedestrians, especially in the Kotayor region. One of the most interesting parts for pedestrians is Terassa border village, near the Kayut border. Sights around there include Mount Ambak and Tree Nymph Gold Tree.<br />
<br />
===Biking=== <br />
Biking is also a mode of transport. Biking area include District 2 of Kota Raja, which comprises of Ostre Anleg Park. <br />
<br />
===Air Travel===<br />
The nearest airport is Copenhagen Airport, which serves as a main entry point to travelers wishing to enter Kudawan. Before entering Kudawan, one must enter Denmark legally.<br />
<br />
==Culture==<br />
<br />
===Languages===<br />
Kudawan is a Federal Kingdom with 18 subjects. The population speaks English fluently, and many people speak Spanish fluently. German is also spoken by fewer people, aswell as Indonesian. Arabic is spoken among the muslim community. Only 3 people speak Yusufic and Kayut, making them languages that are protected by the government. After the 2021 revival, steps have been taken to revive Yusufic and Kudanese Kayut. Yusufic has been classified as a traditional language, which should not be spoken informally. The Lingua franca is English, spoken worldwide.<br />
<br />
===Kudanese Malay===<br />
Kudanese Malay is a dialect of the standard Malay language, spoken in Indonesia, Brunei, Malaysia, and Singapore. It leans more to the Indonesian dialect of the Malay language, due to the reason that many of Kudawans citizens are Indonesian. Due to Indonesian and Malaysian originating from the language Malay, the Kudanese government considered it appropriate to classify it as Kudanese Malay. A unique feature of the language is the use of certain Kayut words, which almost makes the language a creole.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Kudanese Kayut===<br />
Kudanese Kayut is a dialect of the Kayut language (Bahsa Kayutsa), spoken in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] aswell as in the now defunct rebel state [[Conservative Kayut Republic]]. The difference between the languages is minimal, with some words being different. Also, Kudanese Kayut uses the letter (é), while in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] that letter is not used. This table highlights the most common vocabulary differences between the two dialects. <br />

<br />
===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with Kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
Due to the multi religious blend, many religions have impacted Kayut/Kudanese Animism, a local religion emphasizing Spirit and Nature worship. In Kota Raja, a temple to the rock guardian (Tépék Gung) can be found. It is of regular tradition to offer Joss Sticks, Candy, and Fruit. The Kudanese government has protected Kayut Animism as a piece of Kudanese cultural heritage. Kayut Animism is also practiced in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. A traditional Kayut custom practiced in both nations is Jénji, Kayut for Recognition. Recognition means recognizing everything in nature has a spirit in it, and that one must respect certain areas. This belief has lead to the widespread belief of believing certain places in nature bring luck and blessings.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Buké Legal (Book of Laws)===<br />
Most laws in Kudawan are based upon the Buké Legal, or Book of Laws. These Laws are recorded down in the book to serve as a pillar of the countries legal system. The book was written by HM the King, and its significance is extremely important as it's considered the backbone of Kudanese society and how Kudanese people should act. It has been described as a Constitution highlighting how the country works, and a collection of the nation's most important laws. <br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />
<br />

<br />
Many Kudanese also pay attention to the politics of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] due to the fact that many Kudanese citizens hold dual citizenship with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well. This is due to the fact that many laws in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] are similar to Kudawan, however, unlike Kudawan, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] has a democratically elected Legislature (Almuygan).<br />
<br />
==Foreign Affairs==<br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with Kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
Due to the multi religious blend, many religions have impacted Kayut/Kudanese Animism, a local religion emphasizing Spirit and Nature worship. In Kota Raja, a temple to the rock guardian (Tépék Gung) can be found. It is of regular tradition to offer Joss Sticks, Candy, and Fruit. The Kudanese government has protected Kayut Animism as a piece of Kudanese cultural heritage. Kayut Animism is also practiced in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. A traditional Kayut custom practiced in both nations is Jénji, Kayut for Recognition. Recognition means recognizing everything in nature has a spirit in it, and that one must respect certain areas. This belief has lead to the widespread belief of believing certain places in nature bring luck and blessings.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Buké Legal (Book of Laws)===<br />
Most laws in Kudawan are based upon the Buké Legal, or Book of Laws. These Laws are recorded down in the book to serve as a pillar of the countries legal system. The book was written by HM the King, and its significance is extremely important as it's considered the backbone of Kudanese society and how Kudanese people should act. It has been described as a Constitution highlighting how the country works, and a collection of the nation's most important laws. <br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

Many Kudanese also pay attention to the politics of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] due to the fact that many Kudanese citizens hold dual citizenship with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well.

===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area.

==Introduction==<br />
<br />
The kingdom of Kudawan is the second Micronation established by Tom Kap. The Kingdom of Kudawan borders [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] aswell as Denmark. Kudawan was established due to the desire to own another micronation, aswell as too create a federal monarchy.<br />

<br />
==Transportation==<br />
<br />
===Railways===<br />
A planned rail link between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan is underway. The train would be a model H0 Streetcar. Near Kota Raja aswell as right next to the border is Osterport Train Station, which serves the Metro, Suburban lines, and national railways.<br />
<br />
===Roads===<br />
There are no paved roads but in some areas of Kota Raja (District 2) there is a bunch of dirt paths, which serve as a transportation network. In Kotayor, their is a small road down a hill made with stone steps. This road/path is called Kotayor Frontier Road 1, and it serves Terrasa, Kotayor, Kudawan and Mount Ambak Town, Jerak, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]].<br />
<br />
===Pedestrian===<br />
Kudawan is most friendly for pedestrians, especially in the Kotayor region. One of the most interesting parts for pedestrians is Terassa border village, near the Kayut border. Sights around there include Mount Ambak and Tree Nymph Gold Tree.<br />
<br />
===Biking=== <br />
Biking is also a mode of transport. Biking area include District 2 of Kota Raja, which comprises of Ostre Anleg Park. <br />
<br />
===Air Travel===<br />

<br />
==Culture==<br />
<br />
===Languages===<br />
Kudawan is a Federal Kingdom with 18 subjects. The population speaks English fluently, and many people speak Spanish fluently. German is also spoken by fewer people, aswell as Indonesian. Arabic is spoken among the muslim community. Only 3 people speak Yusufic and Kayut, making them languages that are protected by the government. After the 2021 revival, steps have been taken to revive Yusufic and Kudanese Kayut. Yusufic has been classified as a traditional language, which should not be spoken informally. The Lingua franca is English, spoken worldwide.<br />
<br />
===Kudanese Kayut===<br />
Kudanese Kayut is a dialect of the Kayut language (Bahsa Kayutsa), spoken in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] aswell as in the now defunct rebel state [[Conservative Kayut Republic]].

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with Kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
Due to the multi religious blend, many religions have impacted Kayut/Kudanese Animism, a local religion emphasizing Spirit and Nature worship. In Kota Raja, a temple to the rock guardian (Tépék Gung) can be found. It is of regular tradition to offer Joss Sticks, Candy, and Fruit. The Kudanese government has protected Kayut Animism as a piece of Kudanese cultural heritage. Kayut Animism is also practiced in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. A traditional Kayut custom practiced in both nations is Jénji, Kayut for Recognition. Recognition means recognizing everything in nature has a spirit in it, and that one must respect certain areas. This belief has lead to the widespread belief of believing certain places in nature bring luck and blessings.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

Many Kudanese also pay attention to the politics of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] due to the fact that many Kudanese citizens hold dual citizenship with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well. This is due to the fact that many laws in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] are similar to Kudawan, however, unlike Kudawan, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] has a democratically elected Legislature (Almuygan).<br />
<br />

<br />
===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
Due to the multi religious blend, many religions have impacted Kayut/Kudanese Animism, a local religion emphasizing Spirit and Nature worship. In Kota Raja, a temple to the rock guardian (Tépék Gung) can be found. It is of regular tradition to offer Joss Sticks, Candy, and Fruit. The Kudanese government has protected Kayut Animism as a piece of Kudanese cultural heritage.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

<br />
Many Kudanese also pay attention to the politics of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] due to the fact that many Kudanese citizens hold dual citizenship with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well. This is due to the fact that many laws in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] are similar to Kudawan, however, unlike Kudawan, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] has a democratically elected Legislature (Almuygan).<br />

Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences.

<br />

<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />

<br />
The kingdom of Kudawan is the second Micronation established by Tom Kap. The Kingdom of Kudawan borders [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] aswell as Denmark. Kudawan was established due to the desire to own another micronation, aswell as too create a federal monarchy.<br />

<br />
==Transportation==<br />
<br />
===Railways===<br />
A planned rail link between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan is underway. The train would be a model H0 Streetcar. Near Kota Raja aswell as right next to the border is Osterport Train Station, which serves the Metro, Suburban lines, and national railways.<br />
<br />
===Roads===<br />
There are no paved roads but in some areas of Kota Raja (District 2) there is a bunch of dirt paths, which serve as a transportation network. In Kotayor, their is a small road down a hill made with stone steps. This road/path is called Kotayor Frontier Road 1, and it serves Terrasa, Kotayor, Kudawan and Mount Ambak Town, Jerak, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]].<br />
<br />
===Pedestrian===<br />
Kudawan is most friendly for pedestrians, especially in the Kotayor region. One of the most interesting parts for pedestrians is Terassa border village, near the Kayut border. Sights around there include Mount Ambak and Tree Nymph Gold Tree.<br />
<br />
===Biking=== <br />

<br />
==Culture==<br />
<br />
===Languages===<br />
Kudawan is a Federal Kingdom with 18 subjects. The population speaks English fluently, and many people speak Spanish fluently. German is also spoken by fewer people, aswell as Indonesian. Arabic is spoken among the muslim community. Only 3 people speak Yusufic and Kayut, making them languages that are protected by the government. After the 2021 revival, steps have been taken to revive Yusufic and Kudanese Kayut. Yusufic has been classified as a traditional language, which should not be spoken informally. The Lingua franca is English, spoken worldwide.<br />
<br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

Many Kudanese also pay attention to the politics of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] due to the fact that many Kudanese citizens hold dual citizenship with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] as well. This is due to the fact that many laws in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] are similar to Kudawan, however, unlike Kudawan, [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] has a democratically elected Legislature (Almuygan).<br />
<br />

<br />
===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />

===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />

Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

===Ethnicity===<br />
Kudanese people are a mix of Asian, European, and Latin American. Many Kudanese identify as Kayut, an ethnicity usually common in [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Critics have called Kayut as a national identity, however, most Kudanese traditions are almost identical to Kayut culture, with the exception of a few. This is due to Kudawans close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and that many Kayut's from Millania/Kayutsastan hold dual citizenship with kudawan.<br />
<br />
===Religion===<br />
Kudawan has many diverse religions, as well as religious institutions. In Kota Raja, there is a small Hindu and Buddhist temple, as well as a Church. Kudawan has many citizens of different religions, and due to its close proximity to [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] many Kayuts hold dual citizenship with Kudawan, which has been the main reason for a large religious influx. Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences. Due to the Kingdoms inclusive and open nature, no hate crimes against religions have occurred.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
<br />
===Monarchy===<br />
Kudawan is governed by a Federal Monarchy. The Monarch has absolute power, which makes the country an absolute monarchy. Provinces have levels of Autonomy, and there are plans within the government to establish an advisory council to make decisions with the King.<br />
<br />
===Regional Autonomy===<br />
Provinces or Sen (In Kudanese Kayut) have a certain degree of Autonomy. They are allowed to make decisions regarding local affairs and may create laws in their own provincial legislatures. Under § Law 23 of the Kingdom Secession without consulting the government and without doing a referendum is punishable with deportation or loss of citizenship. Under § Law 25 of the Kingdom, violent succession ie. Terrorism is punishable by no less than 5 years in prison. No violence or attempted secession has occurred due to Kudawans peaceful history.<br />

===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />

Under Kudanese law, the country is a secular state and religious freedom is upheld by the government. It is considered a crime to commit a hate crime against any religion, as under § Law 11 of the Kingdom. The punishment ranges to deportation for minor disturbances, fines for median disturbances, and no less than 2 years of prison time for large offences.

===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy. On March 12th, a small misunderstanding occured regarding the border line between [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] and Kudawan. This was solved quickly and professionally.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />

<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Dukian Era===<br />
Duke was created when founder and Prince Tom Kap was furious at the outcome of american politics in the 2016 presidential election. He then established the People's Republic of Duke, formerly a republic. He was inspired by Austenasia, Molossia, and Sealand. The Lonely Planet book of Micronations also inspired Tom. On 5 October 2017, the Empire of Duke declared independence. One week later, it was called the Republic of Duke. Afterwards, there was a change in the government and it changed its name to the People's Republic of Duke. The Dukian Civil Conflict was a conflict that occurred during the People's Republic period. Afterwards, a parliament was created. Now Duke is a Principality led under Prince Tom Kap.<br />
<br />
===Governmental crisis of 2018===<br />
On 21 July 2018, Duke's current government collapsed due to inactivity, an anti-duke rebel force, and other factors. The government created a provisional government that lasted until 1 September 2018. The following day, the old government reconvened. The provisional government was formed in order to create a system of checks and balances. The officials of the provisional government are to be rewarded by the former President for their commitment. A couple days later it disbanded.<br />
<br />
===Dukian civil conflict===<br />
''Main article: [[Duke Civil Conflict]]''<br />
<br />
The Dukian civil conflict arose when Dukian governors argued over multiple laws. The former local governments of Dongyang, Lesser Chatham, and Violet Box organized secessionist movements. The provincial leaders later agreed to peace talks. After two days, the governments met and the conflict was resolved. The conflict mainly took place online and verbally.<br />
<br />
===Transition into Non-simulationism===<br />
When Duke fully became non-simulationist, Donyang and Lesser Chatham (not to be confused with the capital of New Sarasota, Lesser Chatham City) were dissolved. Violet Box was renamed Lilac and integrated into Duke.<br />
<br />
===Kayutsastani Era===<br />
After Duke fell into a long period of inactivity, the Prince formally dissolved the state, reforming it into the short-lived Empire of Kayutsastan. The Empire dropped its cultural roots in Taekism and Kanglap, and began using Arabic culture. After its parliament also fell into inactivity, the Emperor again reformed the state into the Military Republic of Kayutsastan, which would not see much development.<br />
<br />
===Fourth Act of Union===<br />
On 10 January 2020, The Kayut government extended an offer to integrate the Kayut state into the Union of Millania and New Granada. The Crown Prince Nicolás then proposed full autonomy and (to an extent) home rule, which the Kayut government duly accepted. Preparations were made to reform the republic into the now Free Commonwealth of Kayutsastan.<br />
<br />
===Kyexit===<br />
Kyexit was a very big part of history. It occured as a rebellion against Millania. <br />
<br />

<br />
This is the page about it.<br />
<br />
==Government and Politics==<br />
Kayutsastan is a representative democracy. The government is regulated by a system of checks and balances. In the Kayut system, citizens are usually subject to one (and maybe two, dependent on administrative division) levels of government: federal, and local. In almost all cases, legislative officials are elected by a plurality vote of citizens nationally. There is no proportional representation at the federal level, and it is rare at lower levels.<br />
<br />
The Kayut government is composed of three branches:<br />
*Legislative: The unicameral Almyugan (Admninistrative Council), led by the appointed First Minister (who resides as speaker.) The Almyugan drafts federal laws, and has the power to wield the economy.<br />
*Executive: The Captain Regent is the commander-in-chief of the Kayut Auxiliary Forces of the military, can veto legislative bills before they become law, and appoints offices, who administer and enforce federal laws and policies.<br />
*Judicial: The High Court and lower prefectural courts, whose judges are appointed by the Captain Regent, interpret laws and overturn those they find unconstitutional.<br />
<br />
The members of the Administrative Council are elected in a Preferential System, which is more representative of voter population. The Kayut High Court, led by the High Justice of Kayutsastan, has one member, who serves for life. The local governments are structured in roughly similar fashion. The Governor of each Region is directly appointed.<br />
<br />
==Political Parties==<br />
Kayutsastan has operated under a one-party system for all of its history. For elective offices at most levels, state-administered primary elections choose the major party nominees for subsequent general elections. Since early 2020, the major parties have been the Kayut Topek, founded in 2020, and the Liberal Party of Kayutsastan, founded in 2017. The Legislative Council consists of three elected officials.<br />

<br />
===Territorial Disputes===<br />
Currently, the Federal Kingdom of Kudawan has a territorial dispute, as the Kingdom of Denmark does not recognize Kudawan as a sovereign state, which happens to most micronations. However, there are no armed conflicts in the region due to Kudawan's government pushing for a peaceful diplomatic strategy.<br />
<br />
===Border with Denmark===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with Denmark, and has 3 border crossings on the Kudanese side of the border. The Danish side has no border crossings due to Denmark not recognizing Kudawan as an Independent state. <br />
<br />
===Border with Millania===<br />
Kudawan shares a border with [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] an autonomous region of [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]]. Kudawans border with Millania has been described as scenic, especially in the Kotayor-Jerak border area. Kudawan and [[Kayutsastan (Millania)]] both operate their own border stations and share a triborder with Denmark on Mount Ambak, a hill which has great significance or Kayut and Kudanese people. A maritime border is also shared on Siapa lake, and a small ferry terminal (wooden plank) is on each countries side of the border. Crossing the border during the COVID 19 pandemic is open, however anyone with symptoms is recommended to isolate immediately or stay home. Border police of both sides do not regularly patrol the border, as there have been no threats to safety in the border regions. Vistors from either countries are recommended to follow the law, as the penalty for certain crimes results in deportation to Denmark. <br />
