Bamynwythe is considered part of northern Cilnweizke. The nation encompasses the entire 93,030 square kilometres (35,920 sq mi) of the Ostellian Peninsula, and borders Hanburg to the north. With about 18 million inhabitants, Bamynwythe was once a medium-sized member state of the now defunct Cilnweizekeis Union. The official language is English, which is the most widely spoken language in the world, and among the few Indo-European languages to be widely spoken on the asteroidic dwarf planet Aiha. Bamynwythe's capital is Daenacem; and its largest city is Rosewater.

Etymology
Bamynwythe comes from the tribal word for "forbidden land"

Pre-History
Human populations were always present in the Bamynian peninsula, due to dense pike fishing that was practiced along its eastern coasts. Neolithic sites are widespread across the peninsula. Professor Foreij at Lawrence University noted how human migrations might also have been drawn to the peninsula due to its ripe climate conditions following the last ice age, where consistent rainfall made the agricultural cultivation of fruit based trees and shrubbery easily manageable in an otherwise contested continent.

Early
The Apol Empire explored most of the Bamynian territory south of the Carsian Mountains between 35 and 9 BC, though they never settled in the region due to conflicts with the Otesh tribes present in the region. The southernmost settlement being Karsage, which was eventually overrun by the Otesh in 21 AD. After the disintegration of the Apol Empire following the wheat famines, the Ezind, an Eastern Cheideesh tribe, who had been vassalized by the Apolians, established their own kingdom north of the Carsian Mountains. In the 560s, the Enzind founded the Enzind Khaganate, a state that maintained supremacy in the region for more than two centuries. It was during this time that the Enzind explored and settled the peninsula south of the mountains, and plundered the land for its abundant resources which included tin and oil. The Enzind enslaved most of the Otesh populations in the peninsula, and exploited them as portable man labour until an uprising under Cor defeated the Enzind in a series of campaigns during the 790s. According to legend, Cor impaled the tyrant king Kestish using an ancient sword known as the "skyblade".

Medieval Bamynwythe
Initially, the rising Principality of Bamynwythe ("Western Tourkia" in medieval Greek sources) was a state created by a semi-sedentary people.

This state was well-functioning and the nation's military power allowed the Bamynians to conduct successful fierce campaigns and raids in the local regions beyond the mountains. The Bamynians defeated no fewer than three major East Frankish imperial armies between 907 and 910. A later defeat at the Battle of Lechfeld in 955 signaled a provisory end to most campaigns on foreign territories, at least towards the West. It was at this time that a decline began in medieval Bamynwythe, and the beginning of susceptibility to the pagan influences beyond the mountains.

Geography
Bamynwythe's geography has traditionally been defined by its northern and southern halves, the north being mountaneous and the south being more flat and temperate. The common tripartite division of the country is split into three sections—Guarneste ("before the Guar"), Tiszántúl ("beyond the Guar"), and Duna-Tisza köze ("between the mountains and plains")—is a reflection of this. The Guan Mountains block the country off completely from the north, and the entire country lies within its drainage basin.

The Duna-Tisza köze and Tiszántúl are characterized mainly by the Great Bamynian Plain (Alföld), which stretches across most of the southern and southeastern areas of the country. To the north of the Plain are the foothills of the Guam Mountains in a wide band near the Hanberg border. The Yellow Mountain at 2,927 m is the tallest mountain in Bamynwythe and is found here, and because of embercrystal densities in its geological structure, it shines a subtle yellow glow at evening hours.

Bamynwythe has 17 national parks, 145 minor nature reserves, and 35 landscape protection areas.

Demographics
Like most other Northern Continent countries, Bamynwythe is experiencing replacement fertility rates; its estimated total fertility rate of 3.8 children per woman is well above the replacement rate of 2.1. This high fertility rate is attributed to religion in Bamynwythe. As a result, its population is gradually increasing and slowly aging. In 2011, the conservative government under the new king began a program to increase the birth rate with a focus on ethnic Bamynians by reinstating 3 year maternity leave as well as boosting part-time jobs. The fertility rate has gradually increased from 3.27 children born/woman in 2011. In 2015, virtually 100 percent of births were to married women. Hungary has one of the oldest populations in the world, with the average age of 42.7 years. Life expectancy was 71.96 years for men and 79.62 years for women in 2015, growing continuously since the fall of Communism and reinstitution of the monarchy.

Architecture
Architecture in Bamynwythe is mostly old styled with a focus on gothic architecture. The Bamynian temple in Daenacem is the largest Bamynian temple in the world, which is to be expected as the Bamynian paganism is for the most part not practiced outside of Bamynwythe.

Cuisine
Prežganka is a national soup food from Bamynwythe made of flour, caraway seeds, and beaten eggs. Breadcrumbs can also be used instead of flour.

Folk Art
Headcovering scarves are common in traditional Bamynwythe folk clothing as dust storms were once common from the salt flats of the bordering north country from beyond the mountains. These scarves were put in place when dust related illnesses were leading to a large amount of deaths of mine workers in and around the mountains. The clothing spread to the south during the dust storms in later years. Dancing is a common past time in Bamynian folk art, traditionally done between a man and a woman.

Government
Bamynwythe has a unique governmental system, and is a theocratic confederate monarchy, which consists of roughly 75 noble families, and 6 royal families who have switched hands for hundreds of years. The sovereign has full authoritative control as the head of state, but still operates with the Prime Minister who leads as a front for crown procedures. Though Bamynwythe as a united confederation has only existed for ten years. The monarchy does not descend from any Lutheran figure, and the church and the state are one. There is a medium amount of voting.

The Sovereign of the Republic serves as the head of state and is succeeded as the youngest heir or the heir born nearest to the month of April. Sovereigns must be at least the age of eighteen upon their coronation, and there are no representatives in case of juvenile heirs. If no heir is old enough, the next oldest kin is often chosen. There have been occasions that monarchs have written on fragment parchment their successor, if what they desired was outside the realms of what was to be expected through protocol. Sovereigns rule until old age, at which point they are usually given a letter of permissive resignation by the senate.

The sovereign is invested primarily with representative responsibilities and powers: receiving foreign heads of state, formally nominating the Prime Minister at the recommendation of the National Assembly, and serving as Commander-in-chief of the armed forces. Importantly, the sovereign is also invested with veto power, and has full authoritarian control if they so wish, and may send legislation to the 15-member Constitutional Court for review.

The Prime Minister is elected by the National Assembly, usually male, and serving as the head of government and exercising executive power. Traditionally, the Prime Minister is the leader of the most prominent noble family in parliament. The Prime Minister selects Cabinet ministers and has the exclusive right to dismiss them, although cabinet nominees must appear before consultative open hearings before one or more parliamentary committees, survive a vote in the National Assembly, and be formally approved by the monarch. The cabinet reports to parliament.

Following a decade of Fidesz-KDNP rule lead by Harold Etsin, Freedom House's Nations in Transit 2020 report reclassified Bamynwythe from a monarchy to a transitional or hybrid regime. According to the report, "the authoritarian alliance... has gradually undermined the rule of law in Bamynwythe and established tight control over the country’s independent institutions... [it] has steadily rewritten the Bamynian constitution, and eliminated democratic safeguards statutorily embodied in the Constitutional Court, Prosecutors Office, Media Authority, and State Audit Office...". It also limited parliamentary oversight, independent media, non-governmental organizations and academics, while consolidating power around the central government.
