Audalad Dynasty

The Audalad Dynasty is the succession of national leaders blessed by the divine permanence Bi'Amel Unshi and is a key aspect of the Hukar Sharud faith. The Dynasty is not a hereditary family, but rather is a meritocratic line of succession in various nations which stems from divinity's revelations to the first Audalad Dynasty member Narahashu Audalad.

Audalad Succession
There is no requisite for becoming an Audalad Dynasty member besides those which are imposed by one's predecessor on the basis of piety, merit, trust, etc, and that one must be canonized by the one and only Opkaituru Dezum Hukar Sharud.

Elections cannot merit the canonization of a new Audalad member unless all of the electors are Orissaradae (Ascended Ones), at which point the Opkaituru may choose to canonize the elected depending on what they believe is best, for they are guided by Naddar Ori (Divine Wind) and reside in the realm of Aradusu Uturad (Shining Paradise—See View of The Afterlife).

Audalad Nations
Allthough originally limited to its ancestral homeland of Yimmu-Audal, the divine passing on of Bi'Amel Unshi has spread to a number of various extant and extinct states which are considered dynastically Audalad within the Hukar Sharud faith.

Audalad Dynasty Heirarchy

 * Kai'Yi Audalad - These are the Greater members of the Audalad Dynasty who have shown themselves most prominent in their history of serving divinity. To ascend to this post, an Audalad must be designated to this title by the Opkaituru and Opkaituru only.
 * Ormu Audalad - These are the Typical members of the Audalad Dynasty. To become a part of the Ormu Audalad, one must be appointed to the position of rulership as a successor by and for another Kai'Yi or Ormu Audalad Dynasty member. These individuals must be appointed fairly and sincerely by their predescessor without coersion or trickery. The Opkaituru shall know if this is the case, and if needed declare them as Dajir (False) Ormu Audalad, stripping them of their titles. An Ormu Audalad may appeal to the Opkaituru for a promotion given that they provide evidence of new accomplishments for the dynastic cause.
 * Shyr Audalad - These are the Lesser members of the Audalad Dynasty who hold little power and have earned their title as veneration for having been in the position of an honest and sincere regent of an Audalad dynastic state. Only the Opkaituru has the right to canonize such individuals as Audalad members after a formal request to do so made by a Kai'Yi Audalad. Shyr Audalad members are not able to choose successors to create new Audalad Dynasty members unless they ascend to a higher Audalad rank.
 * Dajir Audalad - These are the False members of the Audalad Dynasty. To become a Dajir Audalad one must prove utmost incompetence and betray the trust of their predecessors. Such Audalad Dynasty members are stripped of their titles and remembered in history as lessons to be remembered, their actions never to be repeated.

General History
The dynasty originated within the Jagdasian Empire of Yimmu Audal which came to a territorial height after its migration into Rathnir after the Jagdasian Collapse and its evolution into the Empire of  Yimmu-Audal-Aratia. Succession during the Yimmu-Audal imperial period went smoothly, relying on legitimacy derived from being chosen by the Council of Elders, possessing the Crown of Yimmu-Audal, and controlling the throne in Urnu-Arrak. However, this was thrown into disarray during the Usurpation of Yimmu Audal and the Great Rathnir War which briefly left Yimmu-Audal a vassal state of the Soleannan Empire before it regained independence. Despite this however, the Dynasty is still to this day the oldest continuous succession of national leaders, even predating the world of Rathnir itself.

Some Theiosist members of the Audalad Dynasty have since speculated that the annexation of their ancestral nation was brought forth as punishment by Theios/Solaris who wanted to admonish against the vice and intrigue-filled lifestyle of the Dalatra Mosulia, a heretic who worshiped Ardat lili and the brazen incompetence of her successor Carpicious who led the failed Coalition war effort against the Trillium Alliance. In Theios-Essukdal, this historic observation is sometimes referred to as "The Female Ruler Curse". After the formation of Yimmu-Audal's successor state, The Kingdom of Theios-Essukdal, the Audalad Dynasty continued its rule, now justified as divine right passed originally down from Theios to StoryStudio through the Holy Golden Seabird, and from him to the first Chief Diplomat CRAZYCHAOSCALEB and all subsequent legitimate leaders of Yimmu-Audal and Theios-Essukdal, as determined by the lawful and un-coerced appointment of a ruler by their predecessor. The physical Crown of Yimmu-Audal no longer plays any role in the ceremony of succession, and neither does the Council of Elders.

Following the third revelation granted by the Hukar Dezum Autai Dar Shur to StoryStudio, the Dynasty was re-interpreted to no longer be limited to Yimmu Audal, but be exportable to any leader through legitimate and unconcerned appointments of succession. Upon the Hukar Sharud reforms conducted by the Prophet Narahashu, the then newly-formed Empire of Aldovir became considered an Audalad state due to the position of TheLastSven as Chief Diplomat of Yimmu-Audal.

Following the canonization of Emperor Jabberdrake of Aldovir, the Hukarad Scholars traced the history of the Sironian and Aldoviri leaders following TheLastSven Audalad. This succession line became known as the Audalath branch.
