Al-Haqous

Al-Haqous is a Babykrit civilization which began as a collection of small city states on the Wrabesh Peninsula located to the west of the Qiir Jer and south of the Visiwa vya Chumvi. Most of its territory is located near the Lunman River. The nation is known for spreading the Arabic language around the Wrabesh peninsula. The nation began when the great Emir Eero Heino I gathered the scattered tribes of Zarastan, Aitne and Agissu, with Eero Heino coming from an unknown peoples from the west.

Origins
It is generally assumed that the ancestors came from the far lands of the West some time around 4 YR, as the Arabic language is known to have started its spread around the Wrabesh Peninsula around 7 YR. The exact date of foundation is unknown for the Babykrit culture but it is estimated to around 8 YR following the establishment of various nation states around Wrabesh.

The arrival of the mysterious Eero Heino in 6 YR marked the start of the unifying of the various tribes along the Lunman River, with the Aitne and Agissu tribes unifying to form the Wrabeshi Tribe following a peaceful unification following the signing of the Treaty of Wrabeshi Brotherhood. Eero Hieno announced himself as the Emir of the new nation, and proposed Zarastan join him and the Wrabeshi people in their unification as a grand state. Zarastan declined the offer and in 7 YR was attacked by the Emir and his band of most trusted followers, soon leading to the collapse of Zarastan and Eero proclaiming victory. In 8 YR Eero announced himself as the Emir of a great new nation, the Al-Haqous Confederacy.

Early Period
The early history of the Al-Haqous Confederacy is known through the various wall "tablets", that may first have been written in the 2nd Century in Wrabeshi Arabic. Although most of the tablets survived only as fractured sections made in the 2nd and 3rd centuries. The tablets mention a civil conflict between forces loyal to Emir Hiskia II and a collection of various smaller tribes fighting over the issue of the Confederacy rapidly expanding into the surrounding areas. Following the end of the conflict with the Hiskiaite forces winning, Emir Hiskia II was murdered in 156 YR, leading to Eero III taking the throne and promoting expansion through establishing minor colonies, establishing relations with the Visiwa vya Chumvi and promoting Al-Haqous culture around the region.

Caliphate
The founding of the Al-Haqous Caliphate is attributed to Eero III who established diplomatic relations with Visiwa vya Chumvi and established the Keeper of Mashriq Alshams, which kept track of all records within the Caliphate. Following Eero III's passing various Caliphs lead the Caliphate, promoting knowledge and civil society development. The Holy Expansion of Wrabeshi is proclaimed by Aato I in the year 307, after many years of the Caliphate falling into obscurity within the Wrabeshi Community. The expansion sees the establishment of many great cities including, Eero, Aato and Hubut Kabir along the Emerald River. Aato I passes on the throne to his son who proclaims himself to be Aato II, colonies are established along the Sharqan Sea, with the main colony being the Harbour of Salacia. The expansions stop following establishing contact with the people of Qiir Jer.

Government
The earliest known Monarchy in the Wrabesh region was developed by the Al-Haqous. The head of the Al-Haquous state was the Caliph, followed by their Council of Imams. The Caliph was the supreme ruler of the land, in charge of being the military commander, judicial authority as well as the high priest of the Wrabeshi faith. However, some officials exercised independent authority over various branches of the government. One of the most important posts in the Al-Haqous society was that of the Kaupunginvaltuusto (town council). It was superseded by the Kuninkaallinen Neuvosto (royal council), who, like the Kaupunginvaltuusto, was generally a member of the higher echelons of society. The Al-Haqous Caliph engaged in diplomacy with the surrounding Wrabeshi nations.
