The Flag of Jalinjeri

Jalinjeri, the "Land of Flame" was founded by the outspoken governor of Jalinbeti, Hedgewind Jalinbeti. Recognizing that the citizens of the former Kiywar Territory were upset with the Ortalyk rule; taxing without providing proper protection or services; they had spoken of revolt for years. After the founding and success of the then town and now city of Jalinbeti, the province began to recognize that it was worthy of it's desires and the discontent grew. When the town of Jalinkoli seemed to rise from nowhere, their resolve to secede was cemented.

On the 1st of Silde, 261 IM, a few days after the commencement of war between the Garis Triumvirate on the Sigis empire, the people of the Kiywar Territory pledged their lot under the leadership of Hedgewind Jalinbeti. Jalinbeti had meanwhile created a deal with the government of Karazalik to take conservatorship of their northern mountainous territories. This adds to the total size of the nation of Jalinjeri.

Population

A Political Map of Jalinjeri

About half of the Jalinjeri population is made up of the Ortalykshilar people, who have presumably lived in the region since before the Great Erasure in 1 IM. The Prime Minister, Hedgewind Jalinbeti and all four of his Elemental Ministers have been conducting embassies to promote immigration to the region.

Embassies to Grendel by Rayjock Halperion proved tremendously successful, while Hedgewind's embassies to Karazalik not only resulted in heavy immigration from the Karazaliktar (human) residents, but the ceding of more territory from that nation. As the current census stands, the racial mix in Jalinjeri after many embassies stands at roughly 50% Human, 20% Ælf, 10% Grendel, 10% Ungir, 5% Dweorg and 5% other.

Notable Jalinjeri Landmarks

• Jalinbeti Citadel - Situated in the center of the town of Jalinbeti this monstrous edifice was largely built by giants. When complete, it's expected that this citadel will be the largest and most fortified citadel in all of Otan.
• Towers of Eriquat - Far west in the Kiywar Territory, these towers are the homes and fortresses of the legendary Council of Nine.

Political Environment

Jalinjeri's founder and current leader Prime Minister Hedgewind Jalinbeti rode the crest of dissatisfaction in the former Kiywar Territory to bring about the formation of this new nation. Ordinarily, the Tsar of Ortalyk, Batil Zhurek might have ordered a prompt suppression of this sedition. Starting a civil war, however is not in Ortalyk's best interest at the moment, due to the recent aggression coming from the Garis Triumvirate.

As a newly formed nation, Jalinjeri faces many of the problems peculiar to a new state. New laws, traditions, and ways of going about everyday business all require some thought and where possible enforcement. The emphasis laid out by the Prime Minister and the four Elemental Ministers is uniform in that it calls for immigration. Every official in Jalinjeri is resolved to make deals, tax concessions, granting of the use or ownership of land in exchange for immigration.

Military

The Jalinjeri military is made up of a single division.

Military organization in the new country will likely prove to be unique considering the nation's leader and ethnic mix.
