Texus

Texus was a large nation which lay in the Near-West, along the western coast of the Misipee Sea. It was one of the major cultural centers of Merika, and had strong traditions. Originally Texus comprised of a series of city-states and kingdoms, until their great gains against Aztlan under Gunnar the Great. Later the resulting TexMex kingdoms and Texus itself were conquered by the Chikagoans and incorporated into their expanding western territories. Texus remained a key province of the empire, serving as the crossroads between east and west. After the century of chaos and the War of the successors, the daughter of the Emperor Gordun, Irene, founded a breakaway Empire in West. Awztyn was renamed Irenopolis after her, and it became a new Imperial capitol in-exile.

Texus was a major economic powerhouse due to its location between east and west, their culture itself combined eastern and western elements, which made the Texuns very unique. In one way or another Texas was either directly or indirectly involved in the history of the post-flood world.
