Agrabah

Anthem

   The **Sultanate of Agrabah** was a nation in the northern Eldhamese deserts of elastra[1]

founded as a nation by a small ethnic group. It is quickly turning from a mostly nomadic hub, into a magical kingdom. That is known for weaving sand into silks.

## History

When the original founders of What is now known as “Agrabah” first came to the deserts, they were nomads. The deserts had been avoided by humans for quite some time, because of the local apex predator: a Giant feathered Amphithere named Malcho. This creature was deadly, as it was able to warp reality with its magical feathers. This monster had Long dominated the deserts and therefor the area was not only hard to colonize Because of Its dry Nature, But Also Because of the wildlife.

Tho the nomads were set on migrating into this region. And their leader: merci the great was very determined. It ended with a great battle that would forever Shape these people. In the start merci went out to hunt Malcho with the Company of a hunting party of 30 men. Only he would return, but he came Home victorious. Wounded and covered in blood, But not in vain. He had managed to take one of Malcho’s great feathers. And he (if his claims could be believed) was able to kill the creature. This brought great joy over the people. As they could not only now colonize the desert. But they could Also harness Malcho's ancient magic and become the deserts new apex’es. As a show of recognition of Merci the great, the people let the magical feather be passed to his descendants. Who now are the royal sultanate family. Even though they could manage great strides with this feather, like making flying carpets and weave silk out of sand. outsiders began noticing that the area wasn't dominated by Malcho anymore. Therefor they began moving into the deserts lands. And Because the nomadic people, or Agrabahrians (as we Call them now) were nomads and didn't live in any defined cities, they were unable to stop them. These people dominated the northern deserts for a long while. But at last infighting began between them, and this quickly escalated into wars. The Agrabahrians were able to protect themselves using the might of Malcho’s magical feather. But others weren't so lucky. The region was quickly abandoned, and the Agrabahrians were left behind scavenging the ruins. Here they survived until Sultan Aziz Bobolonius the first began modernization

### Modernization

the Agrabahrians had been nomads for a Long time. With Malchoes magical feathers being able to provide them with resources, most people Saw no need to modernize.

But there were Also some that strayed from this ideology. One of these was one “Sultan Aziz Bobolonius 1” who Also happened to be leader of the dynasty that Merci the great had created all of those years ago. He had long been worried about his People’s mentality towards modernization. As he began recognizing patterns within their history. He theorized that the reason they had long been oppressed and colonized by foreign powers. Was Because that they never really held an architectural nor military grip, on their home deserts. They had always been nomadic, and he saw that this had come with some serious drawbacks, such as: lack of recognition, military weakness, and lack of communicative means.

He thought that the only solution to this would be modernization. He took inspiration from other nations by officially proclaiming the dynasty that he descended from as “house Bobolonius” of the bobolonoic dynasty. He Also began making government reforms, like making a more bureaucratic and streamlined government. He also (claimed) to have bought the land off its current owners (second uraki emperium). And finally, he also began planning constructions of permanent city installations. He also paid governments that laid claim to the deserts, to recognize Agrabah as independent. At last he commissioned an anthem, which is still in use.

### Corination of sultan Aziz bobolonius 1

after begining all of his prosedures to modernize the kingdome. The only thing Aziz Bobolius 1 needed, was to validate his own rule, so that other nations would’nt seek to coup his rapidly modernaizing state. He ended up rushing this prossedure. Instead of gathering ressources to build a corination palace, he used the feather of Malcho, to make a magical one with illusions. After the ceremony itself, the palace quickly broke apart. He Also used illusions around the “palace” to make the baren desert into something resembling grassy landscape.

The corination itself would comprise of the royal vizier placing malchos feather upon his turban

### Discovery of malcho's skeleton

under the reforms of sultan Aziz, it was decided that there should be made a burial pit, were the mummies of dead boboluic sultans would be thrown down into. During the excavation of this pit, a cave was found. This cave was unatural in nature, with burn marks along the walls, and remnants of rotting organic tissue hanging down the walls too. It was decided that this area should be explored more thoroughly, and an important discovery was made. The skeleton of an amphitere theorized to be macho, was found buried beneath the stone. The leading theory is, that after being defeated by merci the great. Malcho dug himself into this crudely made tunnel, were he died.

One of malcho's bones were later used in building a structure above the burial pit

### fall

at some point a migrant that tried to join the land, would notice, that they hadn't been officially recognized by Drak Yamar (the country the claimed to have bought land from) the migrant notified the central Drak Yamar government, and called Agrabah a "squatter state". The sultan claimed that he had bought the land from Drak Yamar, (back when it was uraki). But the emperor of Drak Yamar did (reportedly) did not receive any paiment. And recognizing that a war with Drak Yamar, would only furtherly devastate his country, the sultan resigned his position, and officially integrated Agrabah into Drak Yamar, once again returning his people into a nomadic state. The skeleton, and feather of Malcho, were stolen by a group lead by the previous vizier, and an unidentified man of unknown species, claiming that they would go away from eldham into the north and form they're own state: "jernø"

## Folk Tales

account of the serene spirit: "Ten thousand years ago lived a man with no name. He was not given a name due to the fact that he was a servant of one of Agrabahs wealthiest families. One stormy night, he was sent into a cave of riches and *wonders*. Within all of the golds and jewels that could have made him wealthier than his master by 100 times. He found a lamp. However, the lamp was high above a pit of smokeless fire. Something about this lamp drew him towards it. He began climbing to the lamp over the pit of fire. He grasps his hand around the lamp, but loses his footing and falls into the smokeless fire. It is said that his soul is trapped inside of the lamp as a genie, and lies within the cave. Now, many have tried to enter, but since that day the cave always says "Know this. Only one may enter here. One whose worth lies far within. The diamond in the rough." before swallowing them whole."
