Sanqing refers to a civilizational state in Kesh, made up of a "circle of states" - HCCK, Kodeshia, and Qingcheng. Sanqing is a political and economic union with various scientific programs among the entire civilization, mutual defence, and common philosophical and political discourse. While Sanqing is often compared to blocs such as the Pan-Artemian Coalition, political scientists in Sanqing warn against this analogy as Sanqing represents Kodeshi civilization as a whole, and the members within do not practice state sovereignty in the same way other parts of Anterra do. Instead Sanqing should be seen as breathing space for the creation of numerous non-Artemian models in the circle of states and a sphere of its own, separate from the rest of Anterra. Sanqing is among the largest political units in Anterra with a population of over 900 million and a nominal GDP of over 3 trillion. All systems within Sanqing pledge fealty to the Emperor of Kodeshia who is seen as the leader of Kodeshi civilization. The emperor is a figurehead, but nevertheless carries great spiritual importance.
History
Since the gradual disillusion of Kodeshi beginning from 1500s the idea of Kodeshi reunification has captivated many intellectuals throughout the bloc. Kodeshia and Qingcheng began meetings to discuss how a reunified Kodeshi space could look in the 1960s wanting a unity that would allow for the further development of Kodeshi culture without jeopardizing their autonomy. They in particular wanted to look away from the nation-state paradigm in the rest of Anterra and create a new model of sovereignty based around Tianren. Qingcheng would recognize the Kodeshi Emperor in the 1970s and "reestablished Tianxia", positing Kodeshia and Qingcheng as part of a much older civilizational state. They two would sign numerous agreements to create a common market, space agency, opened up the borders, and expanded university cooperation. HCCK would join in the 90s and the three would gradually become integrated into a larger body known as Sanqing.
