Dinism, known properly in {{Wp|Swahili language|KiUngwana}} as ''Universal Dharma'' (''dini ya ulimwengu''), is a pluralistic religion predominant in southwest !AFRICA. A highly divergent school of {{Wp|Hinduism}}, it is the only to originate in !AFRICA, and derives much of its teachings from the goddess-centric schools of philosophy grouped under the term {{Wp|Shaktism}}. Today, it is the {{Wp|state religion}} of the [[Kitaubani|Kingdom of Kitaubani]], and has XMILLION followers around the world.

'''Aachanecalco''' ({{wp|Nahuatl}}: 𐐂𐐰𐐽𐐰𐑌𐐯𐐿𐐰𐑊𐐿𐐬, ''The Place of Aachane's Abode'') is a major city in southern [[Ajax#Malaio|Malaio]]. The city serves as one of the four capitals of the [[Pulacan|Union State of Pulacan]], housing much of the nation's executive governmental apparatus. Aachanecalco serves as the ''de facto'' seat of the Topocueyoco Department, though some suburban settlements extend into neighboring Mexochico Department. It is also one of Pulacan's largest, playing host to over 3.7 million people across 2,261 square kilometers of land divided into 7 ''tlayacame'', or districts. The nearby landscape is defined by a distinctive harbor and spit, including the famous Guardian Rock ({{wp|Nahuatl}} ''Tlapixtletl'') which dominates the skyline. The other substantial natural feature in the area is the Tliltamaitl ({{wp|Nahuatl}} for "Black Bay,") the largest such inlet in Pulacan and one of the nation's busiest areas of maritime traffic.  


Aachanecalco serves as an economic, financial, governmental, and cultural hub in southern Pulacan, and is the largest city on the Vespanian coast. The population is plurality ''coyotec'', or the descendants of mixing between Nahuatl settlers and Tswana peoples. Numerous other communities exist, however; the city was the first point of arrival for immigrants from western Scipia, Oxidentale, and Norumbia. Following independence from Zacapican, Aachanecalco saw additional growth from numerous ''coyotec'' and Tswana populations migrating from rural areas into the city to find work, especially after the devastation following the [[Hanaki War]].


Hindu communities in !AFRICA have existed for millennia; Dinism's primary origin, however, lies in a 13th-century invasion of what is today Kitaubani by XYZ.

==History==
==History==
The settlement of Aachanecalco was first established as an alternative to the city of Cuicatepec for oceangoing traffic from [[Aztapamatlan]] in the late 15th century. A major [[Cozauism|Tlaloc Cozauist]] temple to the patron deity of the sea, Aachane, had existed in the area since the 12th century and was expanded as the central anchor point for the new city. The fortified harbor and port facilities quickly evolved into the main Malaioan gateway for the Heron Fleet and civilian trade ships.
==Beliefs==
 
As a highly syncretic faith, Dinism draws both from the traditional mythology of the Kitauban peoples and from the practices of Hinduism and other Mokshaic traditions. Central to Dinism is the namesake ''dini'', a {{Wp|Swahili language|KiUngwana}} word originally meaning "religion" or "faith" more generically which now serves as a translation of the concept of {{Wp|Dharma|dharma}}.
 
From the late 19th century onwards and intensifying after the Hanaki War, Aachanecalco became a destination for immigrants. Rapid industrialization, breakdown of family clans in the south and the significant economic reconstruction needed to recover from the war incentivized large waves of industrial laborers to move to Pulacan. Countries with the largest emigrant presence in Aachanecalco included X, Y, and [[Mutul|the Mutul]], among others. Aachanecalco competed heavily for these immigrants with its neighboring rival Tliltapoyec, which had once rivaled Aachanecalco in size and economic power but had been permanently hobbled by the [[Tliltapoyec Explosion|Tliltapoyec Harbor Disaster of 1928]]. Though its size had diminished, Tliltapoyec still attracted significant numbers of laborers postwar as it sought to rebuild its former strength. Despite this, the city could never outpace Aachanecalco's growth, and was finally subsumed into the metropolis as its seventh ''tlacayatl'' in 1974.


==Organization==
==Organization==
The city of Aachanecalco proper falls under the supervision of the ''altepetl'' of Cenaachanecalco or Greater Aachanecalco. Within this are sorted seven ''tlacayame'', often translated as "wards" or "districts." Such districts sit in between the local ''altepetl'' government and the local [[Calpollism|''calpolleh'']], an arrangement only present in Aachanecalco and two other large cities in Pulacan. They perform many of the basic functions of a typical ''altepetl'' government, such as tax collection and municipal services. Within the ''tlacayame'' there exist numerous named neighborhoods, often without specific local government but with distinct identities, often utilized informally by municipal governments for demographic survey reasons. Due to Aachanecalco's size and prominence in Pulatec culture, many of these neighborhoods have gained notoriety outside of the city itself.
The tlacayatl of Tluahatoyac is home to the Tzetzetzitzicatzinco area, so named due to the large presence of {{wp|tsetse fly|tsetse}} flies. The swamp-turned-working-class-neighborhood has gained international notoriety for its long name. Mictlampatzetzetzitzicatzinco Station (also rendered as North Tzetzetzitzicatzinco Station) is often cited as having the longest name for a public transit station in the world. The area grew up along the wetlands surrounding the Tluah River near the north of the city.
==Transportation==
==International communities==
Prior to the mass migrations of the 20th century, the city was largely divided between Nahua, ''coyotec'' and Tswana populations. These populations often lived in geographically distinct areas in a holdover from colonial times; Nahua ''calpolleh'' were typically located in the affluent foothills of the Tlapixtetl, while coyotec peoples found themselves along the southern shores and Tswana groups to the north and interior. This demography was mostly erased through the twin forces of migratory and industrial upheaval, which brought about mass movements of people both within Pulacan and across the globe. Upon arriving to Aachanecalco, immigrant groups would often band together by nationality, ethnicity, or religion, creating distinct "ethnic neighborhoods" within Aachanecalco. Their locations within the city reflect the relative wealth that each community achieved and the types of jobs they came to fill. Often, the locations of their neighborhoods were induced by discriminatory government policies or hostile reactions from would-be neighboring communities, forcing many immigrants to live in undesirable locales, usually either on the outskirts of town or in urban slums.
[[Mutul|Mutulese]]-Pulateh make up a significant proportion of the immigrant-descended population in Aachanecalco. Two main groups migrated from the Mutul to Pulacan from the late-19th to mid-20th century. The first, typically self-identifying as ''Chaan'', typically Ch'olti or Ch'orti-speaking populations that supported reform and communal organization. The Chaan were drawn to Pulacan for its open policies on immigration, its ''calpolleh'' method of economic organization, and freedom from oppression by Royalist security forces back in the Mutul. These groups primarily settled in Aachanecalco and cities on the southern coast, where they established archetypal ethnic communities and organized fraternal organizations known as [[Pop (Organisation)|''pops'']]. These groups kept up connections between immigrants, helped organize remittance payments to the Mutul, arranged for funeral expenses, paid charity for struggling members, and in some cases acted as left-wing political organizations advocating for change both in the Mutul and, at times, in Pulacan. The Chaanob pops were harnessed by the Juwa Party political machine as key bloc voters during the first half of the 20th century. A neighborhood that the Chaanob pops formed was known as a ''nalil'', which closely approximates the meaning of ''calpolli'' in the {{wp|Maya language|Chaanic languages}}. As the Chaan communities became more established in Pulatec society, their descendants raised in the new country began to form their own identity, under the ethnonym of ''pooltek'' (singular: ''pool''), a linguistic deformation of Pulacan.

Dinism

Dinism, known properly in KiUngwana as Universal Dharma (dini ya ulimwengu), is a pluralistic religion predominant in southwest !AFRICA. A highly divergent school of Hinduism, it is the only to originate in !AFRICA, and derives much of its teachings from the goddess-centric schools of philosophy grouped under the term Shaktism. Today, it is the state religion of the Kingdom of Kitaubani, and has XMILLION followers around the world.


Hindu communities in !AFRICA have existed for millennia; Dinism's primary origin, however, lies in a 13th-century invasion of what is today Kitaubani by XYZ.

Beliefs

As a highly syncretic faith, Dinism draws both from the traditional mythology of the Kitauban peoples and from the practices of Hinduism and other Mokshaic traditions. Central to Dinism is the namesake dini, a KiUngwana word originally meaning "religion" or "faith" more generically which now serves as a translation of the concept of dharma.
