A '''Shoreham and Dagerleigh by-election''' was held on 11 July 1982. The {{wp|by-election}} was caused by the death of [[Sotirian Democratic Union|David Johnson]] on 7 May 1982, who had been elected on behalf of the [[Sotirian Democratic Union]] as the [[Parliament of Estmere|Member of Parliament]] for [[Parliament of Estmere#Constituencies|Shoreham and Dagerleigh]] less than a year prior.
The '''Justicial State''' ([[File:Meshor’ephem.png|100px]], tr. ''Meshor’ephem''), also known simply as '''the Justiciary''', is an {{wp|hyperpower|Aleph plus hyperpower}} centred in the [[Núlne Galaxy#Core Region|galactic core]] of the [[Núlne Galaxy|Milky Way]]. The Justiciary spans innumerable star systems and thousands of worlds. The Justiciary shares [[Interstellar winds|interstellar wind]] connections with [list]. The largest worlds are the [[Kedur'shebeh|Seven Spheres]], the shared homeworlds of the Halephem, while the capital is [[Meshor'nesphy]].
 
The seat was traditionally an SDU-[[Radical Liberals (Estmere)|Radical Liberal]] (and later [[Reform Party]]) marginal, but the approval of a new nuclear power plant near the seat (approved by the previous SDU government and upheld by the new Reform government) majorly shifted the balance of power in the seat. The local {{wp|anti-nuclear movement}} became a major factor, and the power plant itself became a major issue in the campaign. The [[Greens (Estmere)|Greens]] were able to flex their anti-nuclear credentials and act as a {{wp|protest vote}} for both liberal and conservative voters in the seat.
 
The by-election was notable in that it saw the Greens win their first parliamentary constituency, catapulting them from extra-parliamentary opposition. The result was an embarassment for the SDU, and to a lesser extent to the governing Reform Party. The power plant's construction was paused indefinitely, and the seat was ultimately gained by the Reform Party in the [[1984 Estmerish general election|next election]], with the Greens in fourth place.

'''Kingsport''' ({{wp|Javanese language|Kabuese}}: ''Pulau Hujung'') is an {{wp|British Overseas Territories|Estmerish Overseas Territory}} located in the mid-western [[Vehemens Ocean]]. Geographically, the island is closest to the [[North Kabu|North Kabuese]] island of [[North Kabu|Lembeh]], and is considered part of the wider [[Kabu|Kabuese archipelago]]. The territory contains the island of Kingsport proper, as well as a number of smaller islands and atolls. The territory spans an area of 1,129 km<sup>2</sup>, and is home to a population of 54,581. [[Kingston]] functions as the capital city.
 
Prior to settlement, a number of {{wp|Austronesian peoples|Sublustrian peoples}} had arrived onto the islands intermittently, but there was no attempt to permanently settle. The island was first properly settled in the 1100s, by [[Kabu|Kabuese]] [[Badi]] migrants attempting to escape persecution for their belief in obscure elemental cults. Independent local leaders were subsumed into the growing [[Aguda Empire]] in 1558, and the island became the furthest outpost of the empire.
 
Admiral [[Henry King]] came across the island in 1710, and organised the leasing of the island from the Agudans in 1713. The Estmerish constructed a major port on the island, which quickly became an important stopping point for ships travelling to between [[Coius]] and the [[Asterias]]. The island was purchased outright in 1778, preceding the Estmerish consolidation of wider Kabu into the [[Colony of the Carolinian Islands]]. As a major port of call, the island was subjected to a small degree of Estmerish {{wp|settler colonialism}}, largely centred in the port city of Kingston. The colony was briefly occupied by [[Functionalist Gaullica|Gaullica]] in the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]].
 
After the war, rising [[Kabu|Kabuese nationalism]] saw the independence of the wider Carolinian Islands colony. Nationalists pressed for Kingsport to be included in wider Kabu, but pressure from the local Estmerish-speaking population and belief in the importance of the port's location resulted in the island remaining Estmerish. Power was gradually transfered to the islands through devolution beginning in 1986, with eventual statehood seen as an ultimate goal for the islands. The importance of the port has waned over time, but a large [[Estmerish Navy]] presence persists on the island through its naval base.
 
Modern day Kingsport is largely self-governing, with a {{wp|devolution|devolved}} {{wp|Representative democracy|representative democratic}} {{wp|Parliamentary system|parliamentary}} {{wp|Dependent terrtitory|dependency}} under the {{wp|Federation|federal}} {{wp|Republic|constitutional republic}} of Estmere. [[President of Estmere|President]] [[Alice Roberts]] is the official head of state of the island, but is represented on the island by [[High Commissioner of Kingsport|High Commissioner]] [[Joseph Bambang]]. Devolved power is placed in the [[Kingsport Assembly]], the members of which comprise the Kingsport government by virtue of their ability to command a majority. Executive power lays primarily in [[Chief Executive of Kingsport|Chief Executive]] [[Adi Harjo]] from the [[Kingsport Socialist Co-operative Party]].
 
==Etymology and name==
The island is, in {{wp|English language|Estmerish}}, named for [[Henry King]], an 18th century Estmerish admiral who organised the lease and later purchase of the island from the [[Aguda Empire]]. The colony established was named ''King's Port'' in his honour, which over time was reduced to the current name. The native {{wp|Javan language|Kabuese}} name for the island is ''Pulau Hujung'', which roughly translates to "island at the end" in reference to the island's position at the periphery of the [[Kabu|Kabuese archipelago]].
 
The status of the name for the island has been a point of dispute and controversy, both internationally and within the island's local politics. [[South Kabu|South]] and [[North Kabu]] both refer to the island by the name Pulau Hujung in official correspondence. Locally, [[Kabu|Kabuese nationalists]] refuse to use the Estmerish name for the island, and historically {{wp|Unionism|Estmerish unionists}} had refused to use the native name; although this has changed in recent years. The Estmerish federal government recognises the names Kingsport and Pulau Hujung as equally valid names for the territory, and the local government uses both in most official manners.

[[Badi]] has been the dominant religion in Kingsport since its introduction by the Kabuese in the 1100s. The style of Badi practiced was predominantly heterodox until the arrival of the [[Aguda Empire]] in 1558, wherein the form of Badi became far more orthodox. [[Sotirianity]] was primarily introduced to the islands under Estmerish rule, with the state-sponsored [[Embrian Communion]] making its presence known on the island through conversion efforts.


According to the 2015 census, 60.4% of the population identify as Badist, and 25.3% identify as Sotirian. While the Embrian Communion is the largest Sotirian denominiation, there is also a notable [[Solarian Catholic Church|Solarian Catholic]], [[Sotirianity|Church of the Orient]] and [[Amendism|non-Embrian Amendist]] presence.  
The Justiciary is home to hundreds of billions of souls, and it is the second-most populous polity in the known universe. It is a multispecies empire is committed to the rule of law and the concept of legal justice, guided and united by the founding philosophy of [[Meshorism]], and governed as a {{wp|Unitary state|unitary}} {{wp|kritarchy|kritocratic}} {{wp|republic|constitutional republic}}. As the founding species of the State, the [[Haleph|Halephem]] and [[Charians]] both play a leading role. The Halephem are considered dominant in the political and cultural spheres, with the [[Haleph language]] official in all but name, while the Charians exercise disproportionate influence in the [[Justicial military|armed forces]].


Outside of Sotirianity and Badi, 1.9% of the population are [[Irfan|Irfanic]], and 1.7% are [[Tulyata|Tulyatan]]. These people tend to be immigrants from Estmere proper or from other former Estmerish colonies. Just under 1 in 10 of the population consider themselves to be {{wp|Irreligion|Irreligious}}.
The state can trace its origins to the rich tradition of Meshorism in the late [[Haleph Monarchy]], with the tradition emerging in response to the [[Desolation of Nephenoch]] in 1517 CE. The desolation and the rise of Meshorism led to the overthrow of the Monarchy in 1526 CE and its replacement with the [[Haleph Judiciate]]. The Halephem made first contact with the Charians in 1647 CE, and it was after this first contact that [[Charlid I of the Charians|Charlid I Charlidkin]] adopted the tenets of Meshorism and united [[Old Char]] under the [[Charian Order]] through the [[Charlidian Crusade]]. In 1692 CE, Charlid I signed the [[Ascension Accords]] alongside [[Neshaqov bin'Shasher]] of the Judiciate, formally uniting the two polities into the modern day Justiciary.
