Goshumá District

Goshumá District was the district of the Simulami Empire that encompassed the core Northern territories of the former Second Empire of Plagatèa, annexed after its collapse by Simulami to protect its Plagosi allies as the continent once again became split amonger factions. It was officially dissolved after the signing of the Plagos Blood-Pact, with most territory being returned to the Plagatèan Regency with the exception of Sakurai Tempo and the towns of Hongan-Ji, the Chronicler territory and Gensin Monastery.

Formation
The district contained the former Plagatèan provinces of Sakura, Seivija and Sakurai Tempo. Initially temporarily named Kanzan District, officials voted to rename it to the historical name of Goshumá, the name of a former kingdom in Plagos who originated from lands largely later encompassed by Seivija Province during the Second Empire and at its height occupied the majority of the Plagos continent. Goshumá translates in the northern Plagosi language Asarāvijāyan into "origin land", a reference to Asarāvijāyan mythology, where it is written out that their city is built over the axis mundi of Rathnir.

Expansion
The province was expanded eastwards by Simulami after the collapse of Alamayn to ensure territorial security in the region, into the north-west beyond the former Sakuran-Alamayni border south slightly. These borders remained and were part of the territory handed back in the Plagos Blood-Pact.
