Najer

The Emirate of Najer is a nation state situated on the Wandering Desert in the northern eastern corner of Nieden, It was founded on 04/07/2021 as a successor state following the dissolution of The Sterling Crownlands made of the unified Seyoh of Najer'jad, Seyoh of Kijaro and Andamooka Territory.

Government
The Emirate of Najer exists using a similar to the Sterling Crownlands government, featuring an absolute monarchy with as the nations commander and chief, with a chosen advisory council to aid in affairs and discussion in the Wobambi Forum. For easier connecting with the nations masses four the Emirate is further subdivided into four semi autonomous sub-nations which each send a governor to the Forum representing each one of the four territories: Andamooka, Central Najer, Najer'jad and Vulpinia. The four sub-nations have some self governance including being able to establish trade.

Culture
Najer culture is deeply rooted in its rich history stemming from the mosaic of the vast expanses early years as a land of nomads and traders, to its heavy involvement and support of the Silver Coalition and Sterling Crownlands. This fusion has created a great many shared ideas including a common ground of acceptance of those who are different and the exchange of ideas among peoples.

The national animal and symbol of the Emirate is the Zond, a mythical creature from ancient Najer folklore, the creature appears as a horse with a abnormally long neck, a spotted pattern and horns not unlike a dragon, sightings of these creatures are allusive, like a mirage in the desert, to those who gaze upon its majesty are rewarded greatly with safe travels, clean water and good trade deals. The earliest known accounts of the creature are depictions in the Qwarakan Archaeological Site possible the location of the first permanent Najer settlement

The tribal "Poma" clan system remains through time hardened tradition the country particularly in Central Najer and the desolate outskirts of cities but in recent years increasing numbers of Najer people have began to flock to cities as opportunities outside their walls grow scarcer and scarcer.

The dare said "stereotypical" blue wandering trader tunic of the Najer people has also adapted with the times, still often worn by Najer and non-Najer born citizens alike but now using dyes and textile tradition brought from abroad.

Early Emirate (04/07/2021-05/10/2021)
With the sudden and unexpected collapse of the Sterling Crownlands on the 7th of April, Najer was forced to form its own government, thus forming the Emirate.

Middle Age (05/11/2021-06/07/2021)
On the 22nd of May, the Order Müvielle annexed a sizeable portion of Andamooka territory. Pom Nafar, Kijaro, Simpville, and several temples are restored and claimed, with Muvielle citing A) a need for more territory and B) the neglect of the southern ruins as their reason for their claim. This sparked immediate controversy, and plans for war were drawn up. Following firm denunciations from prominent powers like Bardonia and Viodoxa, a treaty was drawn up and published on the 25th of May. The Kijaro Treaty, as it was named, gave the annexed settlements back to the Emirate, apologized for Muvielle's actions, and opened the borders between the two countries.
