Jarnowa, officially the Jarnowan Commonwealth (Jarnowan: Byjesztrehozok U'jaarnmnowa) is a state located at the eastern coastline of Athenia. Covering an area of more than 1 million kilometres (1,065,164 km²), the Commonwealth borders Zturich, Anhtar and Adenbreurer, a territory of Aftenheim, to the north.

Jarnowa is currently governed as a semi-democratic dual federal technocracy by the TPCJ (Technocratic Party of the Commonwealth of Jarnowa). Jarnowa is a permanent member of the G8 and a founding member of several alliances and regional cooperation organizations such as the Jarnowa-Jabanese Pact (JJ), Jisinian Infrastructure Investment Bank and Jarnowan-Anhtaran Cooperation Organisation. It ranks poorly in international measurements of civil liberties, government transparency, freedom of the press, and ethnic minorities. The Jarnowan authorities have been criticized by political dissidents and human rights activists for widespread human rights abuses, including political repression and mass censorship.

History

Prehistory

The first human settlement in what is today's Jarnowa dates back as far as 1000BC, with a mysterious tribe, often referred to as "Abgue", residing in the area and leaving behind flint tools and primitive structures. It is believed that around the year of 800BC, this tribe got exterminated by 2 tribe groups, the Caltyc and Jisinian, which moved into the area from the west. Around the year of 720BC, after years of conflicts, the Caltyc tribes migrated further north, leaving the lands of the Jarn river to the Jisinian tribes.

Era Of City States

During this era several city states vied for supremacy over one another.

Era Of Raids

In 910, Kukkuns, powerful nomadic raiders, invaded and in less than a year of bloodbath gained absolute control of the Jarnowan lands after the Sailerkh Kingdom, the leader of the resistance against Kukkuns, fell and split into 3 separate, less-powerful states once again. The Kukkun reign of the Jarnowan lands lasted till 1245, when the already failing Kukkun Kingdom wasn't able to manage the whole area anymore and the Jarnowan states piece by piece broke free.

Jisinian Realm

In 1772, the Jisinian Confederation transformed into a centralised Jisinian Realm. In the first 30 years of its existence, the Realm largely expanded to the west, taking control of the smaller western Jisinian states, which never joined the Confederation, trying stay independent, but also some non-Jisinian communities residing nearby. Adenbrauren, a Caltyc nation at the eastern coast under the rule of Aftenheim, got after a long and bloody war liberated and taken control of by the Realm in 1806. The Jisinian Realm quickly became a major global power and an economical powerhouse, which gained a significant amount of influence over the whole East Areia. It reached its peak in 1862. In the same year, many high-ranking, mostly Cersejzkan, officials of the Realm started publicly pointing out how much centralised on the states which now make Jarnowa the Realm has became. This incident, which may look usignificant at first, then started a wave of nationalism and demand for decentralisation in many of the non-Jarnowan member states, especially in Cersejzk, which became a leader in this direction. The situation slowly escalated and in 1870 an enormous violent anti-estabilishment protest organised by Cersejzkans occured in Kårke, the capital of the Realm, but got strongly suppressed by the Imperial Army itself, which got called in to solve the situation. After the fact that two of the protesters got killed by the Army that evening got revealed to the public, the whole situation got even tenser. States like Gruznjisk and Jutkira joined Cersejzk in the 'resistance' against the estabilishment of the Realm and started demanding things like a Cersejzkan Emperor and move of most of the Realm's institutes outside of the Jarnowan states. If their conditions were not to be met, the states threatened with possible violence or even leaving the Realm. In 1871, the Jarnowan states agreed to give the position of the Emperor to a Cersejzkan-born individual, but he would have to be chosen directly by the currently serving Emperor of the Jisinian Realm Kikirs Praeskir. The Cersejzkans and their allies agreed and in the same year Freajso Philijarda, a Cersejzkan royal with strong ties to the Jarnowan ones, recieved the throne. While none of the other conditions were met, the whole situation mostly calmed down as Cersejzkans felt like they have achieved what they aimed for.

Jarnowan Commonwealth

World War I In 1920, the Jarnowan Commonwealth, still recovering from the Jisinian Realm Civil War, declared, together with all of the post-Jisinian Realm states, except of Adenbreuren, a complete neutrality in the upcoming global conflict. In 1922, Lord Father Leo Thrikrich allowed the export of weaponry and materials to the fighting nations on both sides of the conflict, the biggest importer becoming New Jabanese, with which, amongst others, the Commonwealth developed fairly friendly relations. In the later stage of the war, a threat to the neutrality of Jarnowa emerged, as X supposedly became interested in its last remaining colonial possession, the Dunkarij Islands. While nothing ever actually happened, it started talks between the leaderships of Jarnowa and New Jabanese on the security of both, now relatively close, nations. Interwar period After the war ended (1924), the talks between Jarnowa and New Jabanese continued and their possible result was more important than ever, as the defeated New Jabanese became in need of a guarantee of stability. The Commonwealth immediately agreed on quite massively helping with repairs and just 2 months after the war the Jarnowan-Jabanese Cooperation Agreement Organization was officially created. In 1930, the organization transformed into a military alliance by the name of Jarnowan-Jabanese Defensive Military Pact For Peace, JJ for short. The Commonwealth saw a significant economic boom in the interwar period, which started with its massive trade and exports in the WW1, and quickly became the richest nation amongst all the post-Jisinian Realms ones, if we were to count Adenbrauren as an independent entity.
