Jafala is a major nation occupying much of the eastern portion of Hesperidesia. The nation is the second most populous in Hesperidesia, and has been home to numerous tribal confederations, kingdoms, and pre-colonial states throughout history. The country is considered a multinational state, with hundreds of different ethnic groups and languages inhabiting the area.
History
Modern-day Jafala has been home to several Hesperidesian Native states and kingdoms since at least the third millennium BC, with the Kepok civilization in 2400 BC the first to internally unify large portions of the area. The modern state originated in the aftermath of the Eastern Crusade, which brought the area under the control of the Empire of Exponent.
In 1963, fighting from Cote d'Cuivre spilled over the border into Jafala, and the idea of armed ethnic struggle caught on. By 1964, armed groups in Jafala began launching attacks of their own against Imperial military bases and outposts in the countryside.
Armed conflict continued throughout Jafala until 1988, when the Treaty of Paradisa granted independence for the nation and led to the full withdrawal of Imperial forces from most of Eastern Hesperidesia.
Politics
Government
Jafala is a federal republic, with a president who serves as both head of state and head of government. The president is elected by popular vote, and is not term-limitted.
The preseident's power is checked by a Senate, where representatives of each province gather to legislate.
Geography
The geography of Jafala is largely characterized by large savannahs, although a portion of the Hesperidesian Backlands does enter into Jafala along its eastern borders.
