Map of Jaydonia

Focused in map

Jaydonia is a small island nation situated between 3 straits. Despite its small size, it is a major power due to its economic influence on the global economy.

## Etymology

Jaydonia's name is shrouded in mystery. A prophecy says the truth can be found in an E mail account.

## History

### The Bordloring Era

The 1900s was a time of general peace for Jaydonia. It saw the country create its first canning plant and begin its first attempts at stockpiling. During this time, it was mostly isolationist.

#### Intervention in Srbija

After hearing about the genocide of Kosovans in Srbija, Jaydonia sent a small force to intervene in Srbija. They Srbijans were quickly defeated and Jaydonia went back to chilling.

### The Boring Era

#### Founding

Jaydonia was founded in 1941 (IRL 1/11/2022).

#### Early history

Jaydonia spent much of it's early history chilling, making money and getting used to the tech system. During this time, it made a defensive pact known as the Neutral Sphere. Since no one joined, it was disbanded. Jaydonia, not giving much of a shit about world matters, joined the OFN because they,"Asked nicely". This would have major ramifications later on.

#### Rising tensions

Confusingly enough, Jaydonia renamed the Neutral Sphere to the OFN to,"Preserve names". This caused nations such as Argentina, Borossia and Aldernordenreich. Jaydonia gave humanitarian aid to Triune. This almost led to a war with Argentina before Condor helped calm them down...for the night.

#### NATO invasion of Jaydonia

In 1949, the nations of Martan, Jotra, Valoran, Puerto and Martaius attacked Jaydonia over a false flag (Cassus belli I will stand until I die was complete bullshit and so was the,"I think it's too late to void it" verdict). Jaydonia was blockaded and because at the time it didn't have stockpiles, it was forced to surrender and become a Valoran protectorate. Jaydonia suffered over 22,000 casualties during the war. 90% of these were civilian casualties.

#### The second Jumping

Valoran created a trial to see if Jaydonia was responsible for the sinking of a Jotran ship. It was determined Jaydonia was not guilty for the false flag (Both IRP an OOC). This caused a split that caused NATO to disband. Jaydonia almost got nuked by Puerto before the owner voided the war. Despite this, Valoran and Jaydonia remained Argentinian protectorates.

#### The Allutian Genocide

A few months after the second jumping, Argentina (Being a fucking idiot as usual) allowed over 250,000 Allutian troops into Jaydonian territory. When the troops arrived, they began gunning down civilians and destroying infrastructure anywhere they went (Dickheads). The force sent to counter them was unprepared for such a large force and war repelled. Argentina pussied out and released Jaydonia. Jaydonia then proceeded to fight for the rest of the year before finally ceding 3 cells and $130,000 to Allutia in exchange for peace, an apology and for the generals responsible to be sent for trial in Jaydonia. Jaydonia suffered 410,000 casualties, 340,000 being civilian, making it the darkest chapter in Jaydonian history. After both generals sent were found guilty of dozens of war crimes, they were both executed and thrown into a mob where their bodies have since not been fully recovered.

#### Post war

After the Jumpings, Jaydonia began rebuilding again. Along with Nevona, it formed the Humanitarian Rights Defense pact (HRD) to prevent genocides on this scale from going unpunished again. It also gathered many important nations to make the first international set of rules of war in Cosmos now known as the Altrup Accords. Jaydonia began sending peacekeepers to the USSB, Spania and Argentina during this time on peacekeeping missions to...varying levels of success.

Later on, the HRD was reformed into the Humanitarian Front (HF), while Jaydonia proceeded to chill and make it's first airliners. It also began stockpiling years of supplies so that it could withstand a blockade for years on end.

#### Recovery

To fill the gap caused by the Jumpings, immigrants were openly accepted into the nation from across the world. These included migrants and refugees from Wetheria and more recently, Argentina. This helped boost the economy and population and helped Jaydonia rebuild.

Jaydonia proceeded to grow rich, only topped by Normark and surpassing the IMF.

#### Nuclear age

Though Jaydonia has tested with low yield nuclear weapons as early as the late 1940s, it's nuclear age really began post war when [Redacted] allowed it to begin testing new weapons in [Redacted]. Jaydonia began testing more powerful nuclear weapons such as the 500kt Robux bomb and 15mt Fatherless bomb. Testing [Redacted] as of 1957.

Jaydonia also began opening new nuclear powerplants beginning in 1955. They continue to be built as of now.

#### Intervention in Spania

In 1959, Jaydonia arranged a large scale training exercise in Spania with the government's permission. When this happened, Spanian communists attacked Jaydonian forces and captured 2 Jaydonians (Both later found dead). This began the intervention in Spania.

Jaydonia initially attempted to make fortifications around the mountains and work down from there. This worked fairly well, but tanks were proven to provide minimal support in the mountains due to the rough terrain. Despite this, APCs and AFVs proved to be useful for armored support. Progress proved to be slow due to Spanian refusal to grant permission to airstrike the area as support. After it was finally granted, progress was being made at a much faster rate. After a few months, the insurgency ended with a coalition victory. Jaydonia suffered 4010 total casualties during the intervention.

#### Increased wealth

As the years went on, the country became incredibly wealthy. This was mainly due to the rise of the Jaydonian financial sector, which became one of the most powerful in the world. The sector was able to give hundreds of thousands in loans to countries such as Aegonia and Nevona, while also causing a debt crisis in Allutia. The Allutian debt crisis was resolved after a few months. As the bank becomes more powerful, more investors invest in the currency and it becomes more valuable with time.

#### Operation Marawi

In 1974, Jaydonia was informed of a genocide of Agilans by Islamic Moros after the Moro state that had taken over Agila informed the world in a live broadcast. Having experience from the Jumpings, Jaydonia immediately mobilized for war, joining the coaliton consisting of Alternordenreich, Bavia and the Agilan resistance. Cooperating with coalition forces, Jaydonia played a significant part in neutralizing Moro air capabilities and blockading the country. This along with the landing of troops on Moro coasts led to a swift collapse in Moro morale. After the Moro collapse, Operation Marawi and the other coalition operations combined to create the most decisive victory in Cosmos history, with an average coalition to Moro kill ratio of 16:1 on the ground and nearly 24:1 in the air.

#### The Neospanian Drug War

In 1997, cartels took over large swathes of Neospania. Hearing of war crimes being committed, Jaydonia sent in a large peacekeeping force along with a large force of Jotran veterans. This led to a brutal campaign, where Neospanian and cartel forces would engage in urban house to house fighting, with both sides reportedly using human wave tactics.

Jaydonian forces instead used air support and new innovations such as GPS and bait UAVs to take out strategic targets with a high degree of efficiency. Shanwoo forces were regularly cleared, as the local population was encouraged to root out cartel members.

The cartel wars would end in 2000, with the surrender of Panhandle after the battle of 69 Easting, where the Panhandle cartel lost over 800 tanks to 4 coalition tank losses. By the end of the wars, 600 Jaydonian peacekeepers were killed along with 150 Jotrans and over 9000 Neospanians. After the Jaydonian withdrawal, a coup would overthrow the Neospanian government, founding the Liechtenstein Reich.

#### Reunification

In 2004, talks reopened between Allutia and Jaydonia over Allutian Jaydonia. After some brief talks, Jaydonia agreed to pay Allutia 300k in exchange for Allutian Jaydonia. This marked the first time since the Jumpings that the island of Jaydonia was united.

#### The Deutsch Civil War

In 2014, Deutschland descended into civil war. Fascist, government and later Republican forces battled, as Jotran forces moved in to maintain order.

In accordance to previous doctrine, Jaydonia intervened as alleged war crimes were reported to the Red Cross. The initial landings were some of the deadliest in Jaydonian history, with Jaydonia suffering almost 35,000 casualties to secure a beachhead against veteran Deutsch forces. This immediately made the war unpopular, as protests broke out against the liberal government over the 9000 Jaydonians killed in those months.

As the months progressed, more nations such as Allutia joined the effort, as warlord factions continued to fracture. This led to greater Jaydonian success, as large warlord sectors, armies and command were neutralized by Jaydonian forces.

The war led to the rise of General Azietta, the grand daughter of Lord Boring. With a large internet presence before the war, her participation in the war led to another surge in popular support, as a PR campaign was launched to give coalition forces a good light.

The war ended in a coalition victory in 2017. Despite the defeat of the warlord factions along with the court martialing of war criminals, the nation was left in shambles, as the nation slowly shrank and declined.

### The Azietta Era

#### Coronation

After 80 years on the throne, Lord Boring formally stepped down from the Jaydonian throne at the age of 95. In his stead, he chose Lady Jayla Hikomi Azietta as his successor.

With a livestreamed event, Lady Azietta rolled into the coronation in a tank and took the throne with full oaths, becoming Empress Azietta.

#### Urzikistan

In 2025, Jaydonia entered another war, this time in Urzikistan. Jaydonian peacekeepers were sent in due to the sudden explosion of insurgents in the landlocked nation. Despite cooperation with Jotra, the NKRU and Allutia, no nation saw what was to come.

For the first time in decades, Jaydonia went into DEFCON 2, as insurgents planted a nuclear bomb inside a base at Poso, killing or wounding 90% of coalition forces. The opinion this time was a lot different from Deutschland, as Empress Azietta used her internet influence to spark a large mobilization effort, aiming to neutralize the communist insurgents in Urzikistan. With much more preparation, coalition troops entered, with the fighting becoming some of the most intense in Jaydonian history. Despite the massive number of technicals and advanced equipment in the communist arsenal, Coalition airpower and technology continues to fight through what is believed to be millions of insurgents in the war-torn country.

Empress Azietta, now aged 38, joined the war as a Major General in 2034. With her arrival, Jaydonian morale rose, as land was retaken. This forced the ICF into a few isolated holdouts across Poso. With total superiority in the air, ground, morale and even supplies, the ICF was decisively crushed in these pockets.

#### Post-war relief

With the end of the war, Jaydonia saw massive military parades and celebrations. Uneasiness loomed over due to a possible nuclear war. Aside from that, Empress Azietta reached a new level of popularity at home and abroad due to her military service, internet presence and...interesting photos.

War trials for the ICF leadership saw most surviving junior officers end up in prison for war crimes, and all senior officials get executed for their open admission to ordering the genocide.

#### Space colonization

Jaydonia began colonizing other bodies in the solar system beginning in the early 2030s.

Enceladus' first settlers were 8 Jaydonian astronauts in 2034.

Jaydonia made its first armed space vessel in 2036, the Enceladus 1. This saw the initially small Jaydonian Space Force expand in significance.

Due to the massive distances involved, it took years to resupply these bases.

This encouraged Jaydonia to set up supply depots on Ceres, Europa, Io and Ganymede, with Ceres and Europa being colonized with human settlers.

Despite this, the travel from Cosmos to Enceladus would still take a few years to achieve with current technology. That was until Jaydonia made its first artificial black hole in 2037, a 1cm black hole with a mass equal to 1 Earth (Around 2.286 times the mass of Cosmos). With this first experiment completed, a 10cm black was formed in the asteroid belt, cutting the trip to Enceladus down to about a year through gravity assist.

In 2041, Jaydonia and the Aqua group began mining operations in the asteroid belt. Enceladus and Europa became fuel stops, as water in their crust could be separated into oxygen and hydrogen fuel.

### Nuclear War

In 2042, Jaydonia went into DEFCON 1 for then a few days for the first time in its history. The EV-Allutia War had gone nuclear and tens of thousands of warheads flew over as a nuclear winter set in. Fortunately for Jaydonia, they stayed out of the war. Despite this, people still went into the bunkers, as underground farms and stockpiles fed and supplied the population.

Floating docks and submersible shipyards were towed out, as Jaydonian vessels (Military and civilians) were ordered to sail away from shore as sea levels would drop over the next few years.

## Geography

By total area, Jaydonia is a fairly decently sized country. Formerly being confined to an island, it has since grown to have Ut-102, Ut-305 and a small colony south east bordering Japan.

Jaydonia has a mostly rough and rocky terrain on the coast, which becomes flatter more inland. Due to it's flatter elevation, many cities are inland. Though small stream and rivers exist in Jaydonia, they are too small to build major infrastructure on, also being too shallow to allow most ships through apart from small riverboats and small motorcraft.

### Biodiversity

Jaydonia is home to small deciduous forests and groves occassionally surrounding the small streams and rivers of the land. Some of the more prolific plants to grow in the country are poppies and grass.

Animals that can be found here are rats, eagles, bears, snakes and tuna.

### Climate

Jaydonia has a maritime climate on the coats, reaching lows of -8°C and highs of 15°C. The inland regions have a humid continental climate, reaching lows of -10°C and highs of 15°C.

The Jaydonian mainland climate varies much more, with the coastal cities having fairly warm climates of between -3-20°C. The inlands are a bit more continental, but do not reach the extremes of the Alpine territories, with the mountains having average temperatures of between -30-5°C

## Government

Jaydonia can be described as a chaotic, democratic, constitutional monarchy. It has a tradition of being fairly liberal and isolationist, coining it's version of neutrality as Chillingism. It's founding principle is to chill.

On a federal level, Jaydonia has a parliament (also known as the house of representatives), which votes on bills and legislation. As of 2042, it consists of 340 seats at this current time as it continues to expand at a rate of 1 seat per 100,000 households (Citizen and non-citizen combined). Jaydonian politics is known for being extremely volatile, with recorded boxing matches occurring in some of it's elections. There is no central leader apart from the Constitutional Monarch, Lord Boring. Parties constantly change every few elections, but the centrist liberals and conservatives along with the Chillingists tend to make the ballot.

The monarch's role is mostly symbolic, though he can do the honor of executing a death row inmate if he wishes.

The moment a person is considered an adult is when they can begin running for parliament.

The judicial branch consists of 10 judges voted in by the people. They are responsible for checking over and overturning bills that violate the constitution. Civil law prevails in Jaydonia.

## Economy

Jaydonia is the richest nations in the world, possessing over 11 million in cash. It is one of the least corrupt countries in the world partly due to the volatile political nature making the return on bribes dubious at best. It experiences a fairly low income gap between the richest and poorest of society. It has a recovering, well above average per capita income.

Jaydonia's main industries are the service sector, heavy industry (especially in aircraft), mining, banking, pharmaceuticals, arms manufacturing, agriculture and chillin'

Though rich in oil, the low oil prices of Cosmos make it better for storage.

Since the Jumpings, Jaydonia has had a policy where essential goods such as preservable food, gas, water and munitions are stockpiled yearly to make sure the country can survive at least 5 years of blockade or a nuclear strike. Stockpile numbers update annually.

## Demographics

The Jaydonian census of 2042 counted a total population of 42,555,036 Jaydonia has one of the highest per capita immigration rates in the world, driven by economic opportunity, the need to recover the population and the relative safety of Jaydonia. A record number of 1,300,000, most coming from Deutschland. Jaydonia is very urban, with 80% of the population living in urban areas.

### Religion

Jaydonia has a diverse mix of religions in the country such as Islam and Catholicism. Despite this, Atheism has been slowly increasing after the Jumpings. Islam and Christianity have made brief increases during large refugee influxes, but these normally settle down after a few years.

## Culture

Jaydonian culture is a culture of contradictions. It is a strong supporter of civil liberties, yet supports many aspects of authoritarianism such as militarism due to circumstance and the level of coolness. Jaydonian culture and policy emphasizes equality and inclusiveness for all it's people. It unifies itself with the values of discipline, chaos and the want to chill.

The government style emphasizes the chill and chaos approach, best described as there being so much chaos that it cancels out to make calm. Multiculturalism has rapidly grown in support since the jumpings, particularly for economic reasons.

Government policies such as universal health care, mandatory education, the elimination of corruption, reconstruction, cannabis use, funny capital punishments and extremely lax gun laws are indicators of Jaydonia's cultural values. More recently, the past few decades has seen the rise of the civilian military industry, where old military equipment such as APCs, tanks, jets and even ships are made in civilian variants for the general public to buy.

## Military

There are 3 branches in the Jaydonian military, the army, air force, navy, and missile defence force.
