Kiram, officially known by its full name Kingdom of Kiram (Kiramese Lambaney: كراجأن كيرام; Tulisan Latin: Kerajaan Kiram) in Southern Ochran. It is bound to the east by the Kayatman Sea and shares its borders with the countries of Shimlar-Pashmir to the north, Ankat to the west, and Kainuinoa to the south.
Etymology
As part of the Defeudalization Acts of 1860, Raja Jamalul II proposed to adopt an official name for the kingdom. The Royal Council initially drafted the name "Kerajaan Mubashir Ochran" or "Mubashir Ochran Kingdom." Jamalul opposed the name. He sided with modern historians who believed Raja Kiram was not related to Mubashir. It was more likely Kiram adopted the name Yuha'min to establish his nobility. In the Centralization Act of 1862, the finalized and official name of Kiram is Kerajaan Kirami Ochran (Kiramese Lambaney: كراجأن كيرامي اوچهرن). It is translated in English as the "Kingdom of Kirami Ochran," literally the "Kirami Ochran Kingdom."
The use of the word "Kiram" as an adjective in the national name is a nisba, a naming custom adapted from Gharib countries. It indicates that the kingdom is ruled by Al-Kiram, the founding family of Kirami Ochran. The family derived its name from its semi-legendary founder, Raja Kiram al-Mubashir. According to family legend, the "Mubashir" part of the regnal name was adopted in reference to his claim as a desendant of the Prophet Mubashir, founder of the Azdarin religion.
