'''Kadaria''' ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 中國; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Qādām''), officially the '''Great and Celestial Realm of the Teispid Court-in-Kadaria''' ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 大天界鐵朝中國; {{wp|Romanisation}} ''Devlet-i Göksel-i ʿAlīye-i Teşpeşīye Mehkemeye-i-Qādām''), also referred to as '''Great Kadaria''' ({{Wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 大中國; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''ʿAlīye-i-Qādām'') or the '''Kadarian Realm''' ({{Wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 中朝; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Devlet-i-Qādām''), is a {{wp|sovereignty|sovereign}} {{wp|absolute monarchy|absolute}} {{wp|diarchy}} located in [[Ajax|Scipia]]. Covering an estimated area of 2,550,912 km², Kadaria covers approximately 50% of the geographic area of Eastern Scipia. It borders, from clockwise, [[Bahktar]], the [[Ajax|Ozeros Sea]], and [[Marad]]. Kadaria shares maritime borders with both [[Tarsas]] and [[Iotopha]]. The nation has an estimated population of 110,287,400.
'''Kadaria''' ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Kayig}}: ՅՏԳ, ''Kādiye'') is a {{wp|sovereignty|sovereign}} {{wp|unitary state|unitary}} {{wp|Islamic republic|theocratic republic}} located in [[Rahelia]]. The nation borders, from clockwise, the [[Kylaris|Florian Ocean]], [[Ihram]], [[Tsabara]], and [[Nise]].  


The nation has one of the longest histories of any country, tracing its heritage back to the 6th century BCE. Considered a {{wp|cradle of civilisation}}, {{wp|Ancient Egypt|Ancient Kadaria}} saw some of the earliest developments of writing, agriculture, urbanisation, organised religion and central government. The {{wp|Giza pyramid complex|Qaira Necropolis}}, {{wp|Great Sphinx}}, and {{wp|Valley of Kings|Şehivadi}} are iconic monuments of this period and remain a significant focus of scientific interest and popular interest in the modern day. The Lower Kingdoms were eventually conquered by the expanding [[Teipsid Empire|First Teipsid Empire]] in the late 7th century BCE, and by the mid-6th century were fully incorporated into the Teipsid Empire. In the subsequent centuries of Teipsid control, eastern Kadaria underwent extensive {{wp|persianization|persification}} and witnessed the settlement of {{wp|Indo-Iranian peoples}}. Eastern Kadaria would remain under Teipsid control until the 4th century CE. Teipsid-influenced kingdoms would emerge in the aftermath of Teipsid withdrawal from Kadaria, the largest of which being the {{wp|Ptolemaic Kingdom|Asenic Kingdom}} based out of [[Pila]]. The Asenic Kingdom would last until 690 CE when rebellion would break and splintered the kingdom. In the following centuries, various local and foreign dynasties would seize power and exert influence over the Kadaria.

Considered a {{wp|cradle of civilisation}}, {{wp|Ancient Egypt|Ancient Kadaria}} saw some of the earliest developments of writing, agriculture, urbanization, organized religion, and central government. The {{wp|Giza pyramid complex|Qaira Necropolis}}, {{wp|Great Sphinx}}, and {{wp|Valley of Kings}} are iconic monuments of this period and remain a significant focus of scientific and popular interest in the modern day. [[Benteng|Husna]] were the dominant political unit during Ancient Kadaria, the most dominant being the cities of {{wp|city|Kismuhenet}}, {{wp|city|Djande}}, and {{wp|city|Tappisut}}. In the 16th century BCE, the {{wp|New Kingdom of Egypt|Kadarian Empire}} was established centered around the husna of Tjene. The founding of the Kadarian Empire is considered the start of the [[Dynastic Kadaria|Dynastic period]] in Kadaria historiography.  
==Etymology==
 
The historical name of Kadaria is "Gedrosia" ({{wp|Greek language|Hellenic}}: Γεδρωσία; {{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 風門), the Hellenisation of the {{wp|Persian people|Sekharian}} name for north coast of Kadaria. The native name, "''Gādar''", is a combination of {{Wp|Old Persian|Old Sekharian}} ''gāta'', meaning "wind," and ''atar'', meaning "gateway," thus "''Gādar''" meaning "Gateway of the winds." The incorporation of the Ozerian coast into the rapidly expanding [[First Teispid Empire|Teispid Empire]] saw Gedrosia gradually supplant localised names for the region, including the {{wp|Ancient Egypt|Anumidian}} ''Taset'' ("curved land"). The successor polities of the Teispid Empire would continue to use the name Gedrosia, most notably the {{wp|Ptolemaic Egypt|Kingdom of Gedrosia}}. Gedrosia would remain in use in the following centuries until the {{wp|Turks|Varchonitai}} would consolidate power in [[Iotopha]], [[Benaajab]], and Ozerian Kadaria.  
The Kadarian Empire became the dominant power of northern Rahelia, with the polity coming into regular conflict with the neighboring [[Nise|Anniserians]] and [[Ihram|Sahra]] nomads to the south. Following the former's collapse and eventual conquest, Dynastic Kadaria found itself in conflict with the [[Solarian Empire|Solarian]] and later [[Verliquoian Empire|Verliquoian]] empires. Starting the in the 2nd century CE, Kadaria began to enter a state of decline. By the time of the [[Irfanic Conquests]] in the 7th century CE, Dynastic Kadaria was on the brink of collapse and the majority of it was easily conquered by the [[Irfan|Irfanic]] [[Second Heavenly Dominion]]. A nominally independent rump state centered around the city of [[Ispandikyan]] remained free of Heavenly Dominion control. This independence would be short-lived however, and the {{wp|Turkic peoples|Tagames}} would conquer and settle the area following their repulsion from [[Euclea]] in 882. The ruling Tagamic class would adopt much of the native {{wp|Egyptians|Cushites}} culture, giving way to a unique Tagamo-Cushitic culture that persists to the modern day.  Under the new [[Anushtegin dynasty]] much of the territory lost to the Irfanic conquests was regained. Attempts at a Kadarian resurgence on the world stage continuously backfired and served to only further the nation into debt and decline. In 1855, the last sultan of Kadaria, [[Mehmet V of Kadaria|Mehmet V]] would be forcibly removed from power and Kadaria would become an [[Estmere|Estmerish protectorate]].
 
Independence would be officially regained in 1935 following the end of the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]] and during the [[Red Revolution]], although Kadaria had effectively operated as an independent nation following the collapse of Estmere in 1929. Estmere recognzied Kadarian independence in 1936 and in 1938, the two countries signed the Estmero-Kadarian Friendship Treaty, giving Estmere immense influence over the economic and political affairs of the country. During the immediate post-war period, Kadaria experienced immense economic growth and development as government-sanctioned labor corps were hired out for rebuilding projects across war-torn Euclea. Despite this, the nascent Kadarian government was viewed as being beholden to Euclean, specifically Estmerish, interests, and the ruling government found itself becoming increasingly unpopular. Tensions boiled over with the [[1951 Kadarian Revolution|Meçir Revolution]] that overthrew the ruling government and established an Anti-Euclean republic based on broad {{wp|Socialism|socialist}}, {{wp|Anti-colonialism|anti-colonial}}, and {{wp|anti-imperialism|anti-imperial}} ideologies. Under the new theocratic government, Kadaria underwent a geopolitical realignment that saw it align with ideologically similar nations in Coius. Beginning in the 2000s, a conciliatory policy towards Euclean nations was enacted, however the outbreak of the [[Tsabaran Civil War]] brought it to an abrupt end.  


The {{wp|English language|Anglic}} word "Kadaria" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 塞外 {{wp|Romanisation}} ''Qādām'') is believed to be derived from the hypothetical Turkic word ''*Qasar'', reflecting the {{wp|Root (linguistics)|root}} ''qaz-'' meaning "to roam, to ramble" and relates to the historical {{wp|nomadic}} nature of the tribes inhabiting Kadaria at the time of Turkic expansion into the area. The name "Qasaria" was first applied to the eastern coast of Kadaria by the Varchonitai in the 13th century. Through phonetic shifts, "Qasaria" would be corrupted to "Kadaria."
Politically, the nation is considered to be a hybrid {{wp|theocracy}} and {{wp|stratocracy}} with all political authority centered around the [[Supreme Leader of Kadaria|Sipāhsālār]] and the [[National Guidance Council]]. The National Guidance Council governs the nation unchallenged. The body is made up of 15 members and is composed of influential military officers, [[Senit|Senitene]] clergymen, and technocrats. In addition to being the sole executive authority for the nation, the National Guidance Council serves as the main policy making body for the [[Kadarian National Resistance Organization]]. The [[Meclis]] serves as the nation's legislature, and is composed of 620 seats. Of these seats, 350 are allocated to citizens, 220 are allocated to Senitene clergy, and 50 are allocated to the military. The Kadarian National Resistance Organization is the sole legal political party of the country, however several umbrella political groups exist that are subordinate to it. These umbrella groups are used to influence and advance the interests of the national government.  


In official parlance, Kadaria refers to itself as the "Great and Celestial Realm of the Teispid Court-in-Kadaria" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 大天界鐵朝中國; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Devlet-i Göksel-i ʿAlīye-i Teşpeşīye Mehkemeye-i-Qādām''). This nomenclature reflects the belief held by the [[House of Candar]] that they are the successors of the First Teispid Empire. Unofficially, a number of poetic names are used alike by both the nation's citizens and foreigners. Among these terms are the names: "Middle Kingdom" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 中國; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Orta-i Heqalîk'') which reflects the widely held belief of Kadarians that their nation is the centre of Scipian and [[Ozeros Sea|Ozerian]] culture, and "Great Kadaria" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 大中國; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''ʿAlīye-i-Qādām'') which reflects tradition Varchonitai nomenclature. Since the early 20th century, the term has been expanded as Kadaria began to assert its legitimacy as the successors to the old Anumindian dynasties which referred to their kingdoms as such.  
Kadaria possesses a high {{wp|Human Development Index|Human Development Index score}} and an overall above-average level of human development marked by high levels of industrialization. The nation is classified by the [[Global Institute for Fiscal Affairs]] as a {{wp|developing country|medium-industrialized country}} and boasts a GDP (PPP) of $2.108 trillion. Kadaria possesses vast mineral wealth with notable deposits of phosphates, gold, silver, cobalt, chromium, copper, and zinc present. Since the Meçir revolution, Kadaria has consistently ranked poorly in human rights, and since the 1980s, international observers note systemic human right abuses by the national government. This has led to Kadaria being considered one of the most {{wp|authortarianism|authortarian}} in the [[Kylaris|world]]. Additionally, the country consistently scores low in LGBTQ+ and Press Freedom indicies. Kadaria is a member of the [[International Forum for Developing States]] and an observer in the !Estmerophone.
==Etymology==
The historical name of Kadaria is "Gedrosia" ({{wp|Greek language|Piraean}}: Γεδρωσία), the Hellenisation of the {{wp|Persian language|Pardarian}} name for north coast of Kadaria. The Pardarian name, "''Gādar''", is a combination of words} ''gāta'', meaning "wind," and ''atar'', meaning "gateway," thus "''Gādar''" meaning "Gateway of the winds." Following the expansion of the [[Solarian Empire]] into [[Coius|northern Coius]], the name "Gedrosia" entered the common vernacular. The successor polities of the Solarian empire would continue to use the name Gedrosia to refer to the geographical area of Kadaria. Gedrosia would remain in use in the following centuries until the {{wp|Turkic peoples|Tagamic}} conquest of the area in the 9th century.  


Other polities in both [[Scipia]] and the wider [[Ajax|world]] refuse to recognise Kadaria as the sole successor to the Teispid Empire and thus opt to use political neutral terms to refer to Kadaria. These terms typically manifest in the form of the "Kadarian Realm" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 中朝; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Devlet-i-Qādām'') or the "Jandarid Empire" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 鐵朝; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Devlet-i Candarlıye'').
The {{wp|English language|Estmerish}} word "Kadaria" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Kayig}}: ՅՏԳ, ''Kādiye'') is of an unknown origin but two theories regarding its etymology are acknowledged. One theory proposed by [[Gaullica|Gaullican]] {{wp|etymology|etymologist}} {{wp|etymology|Rodolphe Boissonade}} in 1966 proposes the word to be derived from the hypothetical Turkic word ''*Qasar'', reflecting the {{wp|Root (linguistics)|root}} ''qaz-'' meaning "to roam, to ramble" and relates to the historical {{wp|nomadic}} nature of the Tagemic tribes at the time of conquest rather than any relation to the pre-migration population present. The second theory, first proposed by [[Estmere|Estmerish]] {{wp|linguist}} {{wp|linguist|Rowan Lowe}} in 1924, proposes that the name Kadaria is simply a phonetic evolution of the original Pardarian name "''Gādar''".


In official parlance, Kadaria simply refers to itself as "Kadaria." However, in both state media and government documents, the title "Rightly Guided State" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish|Kayig}}: ՅՏԳ ԼԶԿԼԳՅ, ''Devlet-i Eyü-Kılağuzli'') is used.

{{main|Politics of Kadaria}}
Kadaria is an {{wp|absolute monarchy|absolute}} {{wp|diarchy}} and a {{wp|theocracy}}, with multiple classes of {{wp|aristocracy}} of significant influence operating beneath the central government. The diarchs of Kadaria, termed the Western Hegemon and Eastern Hegemon respectively, are both the supreme temporal rulers of the realm, and the supreme spiritual leaders of Kadaria. The hegemons are considered to be intermediaries between the gods and the people, and are believed to be the physical manifestations of the god {{wp|Osiris|Asar}} (for the Western Hegemon) and the goddess {{wp|Isis|Aset}} (for the Eastern Hegemon). Because of this relationship, not only are the words of the hegemons considered to be both infallible and law, but to go against the hegemons is considered to be {{wp|heresy}}. Beneath the monarchy, the government of Kadaria is supported by several classes of aristocracy including nobility, clergy, {{wp|scholar-gentry}}, and military officials. These classes are organised around the respective {{wp|royal court|courts}} of the hegemons: the Western Court headed by the Western Hegemon that deals with foreign and military affairs, and the Eastern Court headed by the Eastern Hegemon that legislates domestic and economic affairs.

Kadaria is officially a {{wp|unitary}} {{wp|republic}} and is codified in the {{wp|constitution|1952 Declaration of the Founding Principles of the State}}. Because of the pervasiveness of the [[National Guidance Council]] and [[Supreme Leader of Kadaria|Sipāhsālār]], the country is considered to be broadly {{wp|authoritarianism|authoritarian}} with {{wp|theocracy|theocratic}} and {{wp|stratocracy|stratocratic}} tendencies due to the heavy involvement of [[Senit|Senitene]] clergy and military in the day-to-day running of the nation.  


The nation is {{wp|devolution|devolved}}, with its component administrative divisions enjoying a great degree of local autonomy in local administration. This has led some political analysts to describe Kadaria as a {{wp|feudalism|neo-feudal}} polity analogous to those seen in [[Ajax|Belisaria]]. These comparisons are largely superficial in their nature and do not accurately reflect the reality of the Kadarian administration. Outside of lands under the direct rule of the hegemons, Kadaria is divided into {{wp|fiefs}} of various size that are administered by appointed bureaucrats, who are typically from the families that form the noble class within the realm. While the lands administered by the bureaucrats are not ''de jure'' hereditary, the territories have become ''de facto'' hereditary and families will often remain in control or retain significant influence in the territories they administer. Because of this appointment system, there are no elections within Kadaria and by extension, formal political parties do not exist and are effectively banned. This has at times drawn international criticism for the nation's lack of political freedoms and jailing of political dissidents.
The highest political authority of the nation is the Sipāhsālār (ՐԼՍՀԲՍ, "guide" or "commander"), who possesses a monopoly on power and all state bodies are required to directly obey the Kılağuz's orders. The position of Kılağuz is held for life, although theoretically the National Guidance Council can vote to remove the holder from office.  
===Monarchy===
{{main|Monarchy of Kadaria}}
Under Kadaria's {{wp|diarchy|diarchic}} system, the position of sovereign is filled concurrently by the Western Hegemon and Eastern Hegemon. As absolute corulers, both the hegemons theoretically enjoy unlimited power over all stately affairs and the population{{spaced ndash}}both being subordinate to and defined by allegiance to the monarchy{{spaced ndash}}by the very nature of the office of the monarchy.  


The title of "hegemon" ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 帝; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Hükümdar'') carries significant religious connotations. Its character stems from the same {{wp|ideogram}} for "altar." The hegemons are the chief mediators between the gods and people. They thus are deputised for the gods, not only being the physical avatars of the god {{wp|Osiris|Asar}} and goddess {{wp|Isis|Aset}}, but also officiating key religious rituals and choosing the sites for the construction of new temples. Both hegemons are responsible for maintaining {{wp|Maat|Teng}}, the cosmic order, balance, and justice. This responsibility serves as the basis for the power of the hegemons, as the actions of the hegemons are interpreted as contributing to Teng.
Underneath the supreme leader is the National Guidance Council (MKK), which functions in a role analogous to a {{wp|cabinet (politics)|cabinet}} in modern liberal democracies. In addition to this role, the National Guidance Council also functions as the {{Wp|central committee}} for the [[Kadarian National Resistance Organization]]. Together, the position of supreme leader and the National Guidance Council form the national {{wp|executive branch|executive}}.


[[File:Dolmabahçe Palace.JPG|left|thumb|200px|The [[Duvarişehir]] is the main residence of the Kadarian monarchy.]]Each of the hegemons have their own sphere of power. The Western Hegemon ({{wp|Ottoman Turkish language|Imperial Kadarian}}: 西帝; {{wp|Romanisation}}: ''Hükümdar-i-batıda'') is considered to be the senior leader and is the ''de facto'' {{wp|head of state}} and {{wp|head of government|government}}. The office of Western Hegemon oversees the defence of the Kadarian realm and interests abroad, and manages the relations of Kadaria and foreign powers. In this capacity, the Western Hegemony acts as the {{wp|commander-in-chief}} of the Kadarian military, has the ability to declare war on foreign states and intervene in foreign conflicts, and regulate relations with foreign polities. Conversely, the Eastern Hegemon (東帝; ''Hükümdar-i-şarkta'') oversees the internal affairs of the state. These internal affairs include: the management of the nation's economy through the collection of taxes, levying of tariffs, and regulation of businesses, managing the nation's bureaucracy, and maintaining law and order.
The [[Meclis]] (ՍԼՃՄ, "Parliament") is the nation's legislature, however, it holds no real functional power as laws and decrees can be made into law on the direct orders of the Kılağuv. Despite this, the Meclisi is able to draft legislation, ratify international treaties, and draft the national budget. These are all symbolic. The Meclisi is made up of 620 members; 350 of which are allocated to the civilian populace, 220 allocated to the Irfanic clergy, and the remaining 50 being allocated to the military. The civilian seats are {{Wp|direct election|directly elected}} through {{wp|first-past-the-post voting}}, with candidates needing to be pre-approved by either the supreme leader or the [[Sublime Guardianship Council]] (YVK) and must be a member of the Kadarian National Resistance Organization. The clergy seats are all appointed by the supreme leader under the recommendation of the {[[Hierophate School]]. Clergy are not limited to just being appointed to these seats, however, and it is not uncommon for clergy to stand as candidates to be elected to civilian seats. All military seats are also appointed by the supreme leader under the recommendation of the military-wing of the National Guidance Council. The supreme leader and the Sublime Guardianship Committee can dismiss members of the Meclis at any point as they deem fit.  
 
Both hegemons rule through pieces of legislation called [[Imperial writ (Kadaria)|imperial writs]], which vary in function but are broadly analogous to {{wp|edicts}}. Imperial writs are documents or handwritten notes of an official nature composed by either the western or eastern hegemon. These notes are commonly written by the monarch personally, but they can also be transcribed by a palace scribe. They most commonly are written as responses to a document submitted to the monarch by the grand vizier or another officer of the government. Thus, they could be approvals or denials of a letter of petition, acknowledgements of a report, grants of permission for a request, an annotation to a decree, or other government documents. Imperial writs are considered to be legally binding and replace the normal legislative process seen in other nations.
 
The position of western hegemon is elected from a pool of eligible candidates. Candidates' eligibility is limited to male offspring within two generations of the ruling western hegemon, translating to the western hegemon's patrilineal sons and grandsons. In practice, the first son of the western hegemon and his principal consort is elected as the successor, although there are exceptions to this practice and it is in no way the norm. Conversely the position of eastern hegemon is reserved for the principal consort of the western hegemon. The eastern hegemon is usually, but not always, a female relative of the western hegemon, with closer relations favoured over more distant ones to ensure the divine essence is kept at its strongest and most pure for the future generations of the Imperial Family.
===Government===
===Government===
{{main|Government of Kadaria}}
===Judiciary and law===
The government of Kadaria serves as the {{wp|executive branch|executive}} organ of the monarchy, and exists to carry out the will of the diarchs as dictated in their [[Imperial writ (Kadaria)|Imperial writs]]. Known colloquially as the {{wp|three departments and six ministries}} after its structure, the government is divided into nine agencies each assigned to a specific task of administration. These administrative bodies are staffed almost entirely by {{wp|scholar-gentry}}, who arose as an elite aristocratic class following the implementation of the {{wp|Imperial examination}} in 1704. Prior to this period, the central government was staffed entirely by clergy and non-ruling nobility. Scholar-clergy are promoted through a system based on merit and performance in an attempt to limit {{wp|corruption}} and {{wp|nepotism}}. [[File:Sultan Ahmed Mosque Istanbul Turkey retouched.jpg|thumb|right|200px|The [[Sapphire Gardens|Gökçebahçede]] is the headquarters of the Kadarian government.]]
 
The three departments of the Kadarian government are considered to be directly below the hegemons, and while theoretically they are equal with each other, a hierarchy soon developed after their implementation in 1591. The highest of these departments is the [[Marshal Generalate of Kadaria|Marshal Generalate]], or simply the Marshalate, whose function is serving as the main policy-forming agency of Kadaria by proposing and drafting decrees to be turned into an imperial writ. These decrees can come from the diarchs themselves, the consensus of the Imperial courts, or petitions from local governments and agencies. The Marshalate is also responsible to ensure that imperial writs are to be carried out by the relevant parties that are addressed in the writ, be they the subordinate ministries or local governments. Following the Marshalate is the [[Grand Vizierate of Kadaria|Grand Vizierate]], or simply Department of State Affairs, and is responsible for carrying out all imperial writs concerning the central government. To accelerate this process, the Grand Vizierate is further divided into six subordinate ministries that have their own specific function. The last department is the [[Imperial Chancellery of Kadaria|Chancellery]]. The primary role of the Chancellery is reviewing imperial writs to ensure proper and non-confusing wording and content is used, and to make sure that the content does not contradict any other imperial writs in effect. The Chancellery also supervises the bureaucracy as a whole through auditing, investigations, and other means.
 
The Grand Vizierate is divided into a further six departments, called vizierates (部; ''vezirlık''), to help facilitate the enactment of imperial writs. These vizierates are broadly analogous to the various state ministries seen in the governments of other nations, and superficially may be compared to as such. Even still, because of the small number vizierates, many of them perform a wide array of tasks that would otherwise be broken up among two or even three ministries in foreign governments. These vizierates, as the name implies, are headed by viziers that are appointed by the acting Grand Vizier.
 
The six component vizierates of the Grand Vizierate are: the Vizierate of Rites, Vizierate of Justice, Vizierate of Personnel, Vizierate of Finance, Vizierate of War, and the Vizierate of Works. The Vizierate of Rites is in charge of conducting foreign diplomacy, organisation of state functions, and religious ceremonies. In addition to these roles, it, alongside the [[Jade Guard]], is tasked with the translation and distribution of foreign texts and other material. These translated documents are often heavily censored, especially if dealing with a sensitive subject. The Vizierate of Justice is analogous to a judicial branch, and oversees the implementation of Imperial law at all levels of government, and ensures local laws do not contradict with imperial writs that are in effect. The Vizierate of Personnel is responsible for the management of the bureaucracy. To this end, it is responsible for the appointment, promotion, and demotion of civil servants, as well as the administration of the imperial examination. The Vizierate of Finance is responsible for the implementation of Kadaria's {{wp|fiscal policy|fiscal policies}} through the collection and distribution of taxes, conducting the {{wp|census}}, maintaining all land and title records, and estimating the revenue of local governments and aristocratic demesne. The Vizierate of War coordinates the overall military effort of Kadaria. It is responsible for the appointment, promotion, and demotion of military personnel, the deployment of military units, and the oversight of armament procurement and development. Lastly, the Vizierate of Works supports and coordinates the construction and maintenance of public works and infrastructure, including authorisation of major construction and resource extraction, maintenance of roads and canals, as well as standardisation of weights and measures.

The Imperial court is considered to be the ''de facto'' {{wp|legislature}} of Kadaria, and is composed of the nation's most influential noble elite, high-ranking clergy, business moguls, military officials, and members of the Imperial Family. This lends to the Imperial court being highly influential outside of its advisory position. Because of the diarchy, the Imperial court is nominally broken down into two distinct bodies: the Western Court and the Eastern Court.

Kadaria (Kayig: ՅՏԳ, Kādiye) is a sovereign unitary theocratic republic located in Rahelia. The nation borders, from clockwise, the Florian Ocean, Ihram, Tsabara, and Nise.

The nation has one of the longest histories of any country, tracing its heritage back to the 6th millenium BCE. Considered a cradle of civilisation, Ancient Kadaria saw some of the earliest developments of writing, agriculture, urbanization, organized religion, and central government. The Qaira Necropolis, Great Sphinx, and Valley of Kings are iconic monuments of this period and remain a significant focus of scientific and popular interest in the modern day. Husna were the dominant political unit during Ancient Kadaria, the most dominant being the cities of Kismuhenet, Djande, and Tappisut. In the 16th century BCE, the Kadarian Empire was established centered around the husna of Tjene. The founding of the Kadarian Empire is considered the start of the Dynastic period in Kadaria historiography.

The Kadarian Empire became the dominant power of northern Rahelia, with the polity coming into regular conflict with the neighboring Anniserians and Sahra nomads to the south. Following the former's collapse and eventual conquest, Dynastic Kadaria found itself in conflict with the Solarian and later Verliquoian empires. Starting the in the 2nd century CE, Kadaria began to enter a state of decline. By the time of the Irfanic Conquests in the 7th century CE, Dynastic Kadaria was on the brink of collapse and the majority of it was easily conquered by the Irfanic Second Heavenly Dominion. A nominally independent rump state centered around the city of Ispandikyan remained free of Heavenly Dominion control. This independence would be short-lived however, and the Tagames would conquer and settle the area following their repulsion from Euclea in 882. The ruling Tagamic class would adopt much of the native Cushites culture, giving way to a unique Tagamo-Cushitic culture that persists to the modern day. Under the new Anushtegin dynasty much of the territory lost to the Irfanic conquests was regained. Attempts at a Kadarian resurgence on the world stage continuously backfired and served to only further the nation into debt and decline. In 1855, the last sultan of Kadaria, Mehmet V would be forcibly removed from power and Kadaria would become an Estmerish protectorate.

Independence would be officially regained in 1935 following the end of the Great War and during the Red Revolution, although Kadaria had effectively operated as an independent nation following the collapse of Estmere in 1929. Estmere recognzied Kadarian independence in 1936 and in 1938, the two countries signed the Estmero-Kadarian Friendship Treaty, giving Estmere immense influence over the economic and political affairs of the country. During the immediate post-war period, Kadaria experienced immense economic growth and development as government-sanctioned labor corps were hired out for rebuilding projects across war-torn Euclea. Despite this, the nascent Kadarian government was viewed as being beholden to Euclean, specifically Estmerish, interests, and the ruling government found itself becoming increasingly unpopular. Tensions boiled over with the Meçir Revolution that overthrew the ruling government and established an Anti-Euclean republic based on broad socialist, anti-colonial, and anti-imperial ideologies. Under the new theocratic government, Kadaria underwent a geopolitical realignment that saw it align with ideologically similar nations in Coius. Beginning in the 2000s, a conciliatory policy towards Euclean nations was enacted, however the outbreak of the Tsabaran Civil War brought it to an abrupt end.

Politically, the nation is considered to be a hybrid theocracy and stratocracy with all political authority centered around the Sipāhsālār and the National Guidance Council. The National Guidance Council governs the nation unchallenged. The body is made up of 15 members and is composed of influential military officers, Senitene clergymen, and technocrats. In addition to being the sole executive authority for the nation, the National Guidance Council serves as the main policy making body for the Kadarian National Resistance Organization. The Meclis serves as the nation's legislature, and is composed of 620 seats. Of these seats, 350 are allocated to citizens, 220 are allocated to Senitene clergy, and 50 are allocated to the military. The Kadarian National Resistance Organization is the sole legal political party of the country, however several umbrella political groups exist that are subordinate to it. These umbrella groups are used to influence and advance the interests of the national government.

Kadaria possesses a high Human Development Index score and an overall above-average level of human development marked by high levels of industrialization. The nation is classified by the Global Institute for Fiscal Affairs as a medium-industrialized country and boasts a GDP (PPP) of $2.108 trillion. Kadaria possesses vast mineral wealth with notable deposits of phosphates, gold, silver, cobalt, chromium, copper, and zinc present. Since the Meçir revolution, Kadaria has consistently ranked poorly in human rights, and since the 1980s, international observers note systemic human right abuses by the national government. This has led to Kadaria being considered one of the most authortarian in the world. Additionally, the country consistently scores low in LGBTQ+ and Press Freedom indicies. Kadaria is a member of the International Forum for Developing States and an observer in the !Estmerophone.

Etymology

The historical name of Kadaria is "Gedrosia" (Piraean: Γεδρωσία), the Hellenisation of the Pardarian name for north coast of Kadaria. The Pardarian name, "Gādar", is a combination of words} gāta, meaning "wind," and atar, meaning "gateway," thus "Gādar" meaning "Gateway of the winds." Following the expansion of the Solarian Empire into northern Coius, the name "Gedrosia" entered the common vernacular. The successor polities of the Solarian empire would continue to use the name Gedrosia to refer to the geographical area of Kadaria. Gedrosia would remain in use in the following centuries until the Tagamic conquest of the area in the 9th century.

The Estmerish word "Kadaria" (Kayig: ՅՏԳ, Kādiye) is of an unknown origin but two theories regarding its etymology are acknowledged. One theory proposed by Gaullican etymologist Rodolphe Boissonade in 1966 proposes the word to be derived from the hypothetical Turkic word *Qasar, reflecting the root qaz- meaning "to roam, to ramble" and relates to the historical nomadic nature of the Tagemic tribes at the time of conquest rather than any relation to the pre-migration population present. The second theory, first proposed by Estmerish linguist Rowan Lowe in 1924, proposes that the name Kadaria is simply a phonetic evolution of the original Pardarian name "Gādar".

In official parlance, Kadaria simply refers to itself as "Kadaria." However, in both state media and government documents, the title "Rightly Guided State" (Kayig: ՅՏԳ ԼԶԿԼԳՅ, Devlet-i Eyü-Kılağuzli) is used.
