Jijo, or officially known as the Duchy of Jijo is a political subdivision within the Southern Ivili Clan and the greater Kingdom of Flatstone.
The duchy, originally dawning the superficial title of clan, was established during the pre-medieval period of Flatstone. A time when the peoples of the archipelago lacked a sense of national unity or identity. The clan would be established in what is known today as the province Jijo, going on to conquer the Bebanu and the area in which the city of Umudin resides today, establishing the city towards the end of the tenth century. Due to the Umudins considerable growth in size and population relatively quickly, likely because of its strategic positioning on Flatstones north eastern coast, lead to the city being appointed the capital of the Duchy of Jijo in the twelfth century, when the Duchy of Jijo conquered the southward region Abomase, reaching its greatest territorial extent at the end of the twelfth century.
The clan would then be incorporated into the expanding Southern Ivili clan diplomatically, adopting the status of vassal under the Southern Ivili nobles that had exerted their influence in the region without bloodshed. This is when the Jijo clan would recieve the title of duchy, under Southern Ivili rule. During Southern Ivili occupation, the clan would enjoy two and a half decades of peace and prosperity, allowing the duchy valuable time to centralize and consolidate itself, significantly developing the landscape and it's ability to navigate trade into and out of the region. In 1232, Northern Ivili troops would defeat the Southern Ivili and Taverkny armies at Umudin, rendering them unable to resist occupation. At the conclusion of the First Stonish War of Unification, the entirety of the Southern Ivili clan, as well as the lesser Duchy of Jijo, would be incorporated into the newly created Kingdom of Flatstone, maintaining it's land and status as duchy. However, despite now having to pay tribute to the Northern Ivili rather than the Southern Ivili, the Duchy of Jijo still had to answer to the Southern Ivili clan.
