The Justicial State (, tr. Meshor’ephem), also known simply as the Justiciary, is an Aleph plus hyperpower centred in the galactic core of the Milky Way. The Justiciary spans innumerable star systems and thousands of worlds. The Justiciary shares interstellar wind connections with [list]. The largest worlds are the Seven Spheres, the shared homeworlds of the Halephem, while the capital is Meshor'nesphy.
The Justiciary is home to hundreds of billions of souls, and it is the second-most populous polity in the known universe. It is a multispecies empire is committed to the rule of law and the concept of legal justice, guided and united by the founding philosophy of Meshorism, and governed as a unitary kritocratic constitutional republic. As the founding species of the State, the Halephem and Charians both play a leading role. The Halephem are considered dominant in the political and cultural spheres, with the Haleph language official in all but name, while the Charians exercise disproportionate influence in the armed forces.
The state can trace its origins to the rich tradition of Meshorism in the late Haleph Monarchy, with the tradition emerging in response to the Desolation of Nephenoch in 1517 CE. The desolation and the rise of Meshorism led to the overthrow of the Monarchy in 1526 CE and its replacement with the Haleph Judiciate. The Halephem made first contact with the Charians in 1647 CE, and it was after this first contact that Charlid I Charlidkin adopted the tenets of Meshorism and united Old Char under the Charian Order through the Charlidian Crusade. In 1692 CE, Charlid I signed the Ascension Accords alongside Neshaqov bin'Shasher of the Judiciate, formally uniting the two polities into the modern day Justiciary.
seccessionist war & reformation
In 2645 CE, psionic activity in the Schitzon Gulf dropped to navigable levels, which ended the blockage of swathes of windways in the Justicial hinterlands. Exploration of these windways led to first contact with the United Planets, which resulted in 2663 CE in the Cordial War between the Justiciary and the Ternary Alliance. The war was inconclusive, but set the two states on the road to the War in the Heavens, which broke out in 2910 CE and was far more destructive than its predecessor. The war only came to an end in 2916 CE with the Peace of Amity, which halted the conflict and saw the foundation of the Galactic Council to mediate future disputes. Despite this, enmity with the United Planets remains strong, and relations are still seen through the prism of the Eternal Struggle.
