Background

The Four Worlds of Kajal were initially founded as the Imperium of Kajal in AD 1126, through the conquest of the nations of Kajal by what is now the province of Mejar. The Imperium itself was founded with the original goal of uniting the Kajali people under one flag, without the bickering and inevitable bureaucracy that often accompanies democracy.

While there are many historical sites across Kajal, such as cave paintings, or crude tunnel complexes, remains obtained through archeological excavations show that the planet of Kajal has only been inhabitated by Kajali for approximately 35,000 years. The public had been largely unconcerned with the questions of the origin of the Kajali people during the Imperial Era, and the governments of the various nations of Kajal during the Pre-Imperial Age were generally too busy making war or bickering with each other over trade disputes.

As a nation, Kajal has nearly always been isolated from outside interference. Its location is far enough away that Kajal did not recieve the first televised broadcast of Earth until 2379, though more recently, programming from Earth has been sent to the Four Worlds using subspace communications technology.

Kajal achieved Faster than Light ability in late 2003, and has improved upon the technology to the point that it is commonplace for a civilian to travel between Kajal and Sol regularly. The establishment of Kajal Mars, in early August of 2003, helped to further consolidate Kajali assets within Sol, as well as allowing for a higher level of interaction with the nations residing within the star system.

The current date in Kajal is Cela Dan, 900DE (Democratic Era). This date corresponds to June 2, 2904AFY.

Legal System

Kajali Shokur (trial) is carried out by a group of nine known as the Soranni (council). The process of Shiya (literal translation: determine. In context, determination) is performed by the appointed Sora (master) of the Soranni. The entire process is carried out within a Miyar (court), and a successful defense must prove yarro (doubt) in the Soranni’s case. However, the Soranni is well known for its ability to convict 90% of those that appear before them. Disproving Rir (guilt) is extremely difficult.
