History

Jumhurikesh has been inhabited for millions of years. The first known civilisation is believed to have originated 13 million years ago by pre-modern sapient beings. They used primitive tools made from local materials such as wood and bone. Although nomadic, traces of their existence can be found in mass fossilised remains which indicate burial practices. Not much else is known about these beings including their species.

The first evidence of modern day Feline habitation is 1.5 million years old, with evidence of other species such as Vulpine and Humans originating at most 200,000 years later. The oldest form of writing was discovered in 1345 by Rashmad Erkudim in the form of a stone tablet which was dated in 2003 to about 3,200 years ago.

The first major antique civilisation is the Ufratian Civilization which existed on the shores of the Ufrata River from 3700 BCE to 2500 BCE, following which the civilisation's artefacts and structures decayed as people returned to pastoralism and nomadism. From 1200 BCE to 200 CE the Jumhurian Empire ruled over the Jumhur River basin. The area is believed to have been converted to Besmalism or Paxism about 1000 BCE, following the conversion of Simadien II of the Drumite dynasty. From 1200 BCE to 200 CE the Jumhurian Empire ruled over the Jumhur River basin.

Jumhurikesh was founded in 1689 after Saidun the Conqueror defeated and unified the 18 petty Kingdoms which comprised its modern-day territory. He placed his brother Prince Shalmad in charge of Jumhurikesh. There were often rebellions and uprisings from local rulers who felt undermined and dispossessed by the loss of their power, positions and territory.

Under Saidun II, the Peace of Kalaigard was signed whereby the Imperial Court at Everyet was established whereby the deposed petty Kings could live under the Sultan's grace in a court held on his behalf by the Lieutenant Governor of Jumhurikesh.
