Mirhaime: Difference between revisions

For over a century, no central force was present to govern over the entirety of the Realm as various kingdoms, and republics were formed to govern themselves following the collapse of the Commonwealth. Oftentimes, these polities had their own political and territorial ambitions which led to major wars being fought throughout the period referred to by historians as the Second Anarchy. Several factors, including a need for mutual defense led to the creation of the short-lived Trinterian Concordance, however, treaties were rarely honored as rivalries between noble houses derailed any chance of peaceful reunification. The House of Siinkar, a line of prestigious battlemasters and civil administrators under the Trinterian Commonwealth, was one of the most vocal supporters for the establishment of a more centralized authority however they lacked the political influence or army to significantly influence opinions within the Concordance's assembly. However, under their new Patriarch, Hera Jatak Siinkar nar Lestek'ha, a period of drastic changes ensued as the Army of the Republic of Lestek'ha modernized from a predominantly peasant army into a professional force funded by trade from several relatively esteemed port cities gained through the successful conquest of the region, as well as gold, and silver mines in their native Ga.

By 1630, the Republic of Lestek was the largest political entity in Western Mirhaime, having united 5 cities, 56 duchies, and 3 tiarnas under their banner. With their new-found power, the Republic used this to their advantage by leveraging political favours, as well as further expanding their military forcce. During the invasion of the Duchy of Drukan'ha by the Kingdom of Naki in 1635, the Republic organized 23 of the 38 nations that formed the Trinterian Realm into a new Trinterian Confederation that embarked on a six-year political and military struggle. The decisive military victory in Antai'tagh gave the Confederation renewed legitimacy as the independent religious order in Geith voiced their support for Siinkar's cause. After a brief period of relative calm, the Trinterian Confederation, with the support of Geith, commenced a new armed struggle against the Aeter Imperium, rejecting its claims on the Drake Throne and the Mandate of the Divines in the process. After a devastating four-year struggle, the Tiarna's of Loren and Blaithnad fell to Confederate hands. The child-Emperor Sedagh Aein Feldrot nar Loren was forced to peacefully abdicate in the Treaty of Daemir that saw the establishment of the Mirhaime Federation, a federal semi-presidential republic under the leadership of the Ansan Coalition, its first Paragon being Hera Jatak Siinkar nar Lestek'ha Ke'sed. Any states in the Fefsen-speaking world yet to be under the control of the Federation soon yielded, and were incorporated into the union as constituent states.

The ''Constitution of the Mirhaimian Realm'' is the supreme law of the country, and consists of written text and unwritten conventions. The ''Constitution Act, 1650'', affirmed governance based on parliamentary precedent and divided powers between the federal and provincial governments. The ''Realm Charter of Rights and Freedom'' drafted in the same year as the Constitution guarantees basic rights and freedoms that usually cannot be over-ridden by any government—though a notwithstanding clause allows the Saekari and the state legislatures to override certain sections of the ''Charter'' for a period of five years.

Mirhaime has 369 detention facilities with a total capacity of up to 2 million detainees, all operated by individual Ha. The smallest prison is the Haifan Correctional Facility with a capacity of two detainees.
