Etymology
Geography
Our Capital city is named Zao Jaihu.
History
Jaihu was the site of a Neolithic settlement based in the central plain near the Golden River. Most archaeologists consider the site to be one of the earliest examples of the Oriental culture. Settled around 7000 BCE, the site was later flooded and abandoned around 5700 BCE. The settlement was surrounded by a moat and covered a relatively large area of 55.000 square meters (5.5 hectare). At one time, it was "a complex, highly organized Neolithic society," home to at least 250 people and perhaps as many as 800.
Politics
Our philosphy is simple, you respect the Jaihu and the Jaihu will respect you. You disrespect the Jaihu and the Jaihu will ensure that you meet an untimely and very painful end.

Economy
The inhabitants of Jiahu cultivate foxtail millet and rice. While millet cultivation is common in the Oriental culture, rice cultivation at Jaihu is unique, and tends to support the theory that Jaihu was a separate culture from the Oriental grouping. On the other hand, difference in local climate, moisture and soil conditions has made cultivating rice more difficult. Jaihu rice cultivation is one of the most commonly found, and the most northerly found. The rice is a kind of short-grained japonica rice. Scholar think the earliest domesticated rice belonged to the long-grain indica subspecies.
Society
Culture
The native language is Jaihuian, although Anglish, Aroman and Tikvan are spoken and understood by the majority of the Jaihuian people.
Jaihan are interested in exchanges in sports. The people enjoy playing cricket, handball, ice hockey and football.
Burials in Jaihu are usually accompanied by burial offerings. Burial objects range from pottery to tortoise shells. Burial offerings vary between individuals, and are linked to the skills they displayed in life, providing evidence of an early specialization of labour. The types of labor specialization, from most common to most rare, included farmers, herdsmen, fishermen, hunters, potters, musicians, and a tribal priest.
