Cahaya dynasty

The Kingdom of Cahaya (Cadasan: Karajaan Cahaya), more commonly known as the Cahaya dynasty (Dinasti Cahaya), was a kingdom and dynasty in Southeast Asia that existed from 1718 to 1936.

History
The dynasty was unofficially created in 1718 as a kingdom after the Cahayan and Alyatak peoples defeated the Dutch from their territory. The Alyataks wanted the territory to be a federation, while the Cahayans wanted a kingdom. After another war, the Cahayans won and the Kingdom of Cahaya was officially established. The Cahayan leader, Raha I, became king, and his family was succession. Over the years, the Cahaya dynasty flourished and expanded and was the first to unify the Cahasan people under one state.

In 1853, Britain invaded the dynasty and colonized the Nan Tung area. The British and Cahayans managed to live peacefully, but the Cahaya dynasty became more corrupt and unwilling to change. In 1929, revolutionaries decided to establish a republic. The Cadasan Revolutionary Army was formed and split into the Northern Revolutionary Army (to overthrow the Cahayans) and the Southern Revolutionary Army (to overthrow the British). In 1936, the NRA overthrew the Cahayese in a bloody coup d'etat

Government
The kingdom was ruled by the House of Raha, the monarchy.To serve in the government, a person had to pass the brought to the kingdom after Raha III (reign 1797-1832) visited. Ethnic Cahayans were given easier questions than other races. There was no legislature until 1935, when the Administration Council was created in a last-ditch effort to save the dynasty (to no avail).

Administrative divisions (WIP)
Administrative divisions of Cahaya dynasty were divided into 6 provinces and 4 territories. Provinces had more autonomy than territories.
