*"Death to our enemies."*

- Jokari motto

The Jokar Undivided is the united government of the Refounders and the Corsair Bands. The Rebellion of Restoration is technically not part of the JU, but it is the closest ally it has.

The seat of power of the Undivided Union was the Undying Light, the massive moonship used by the survivors of the old Republic to flee from the Ragon invasion. The vast majority of the remnants of the Jokari species lived on that great arkship for over two hundred years until the Gnosara conquered the Undying Light, forcing the inhabitants to flee in a collection of roving fleets.

In the Beta Timeline, the Jokar Undivided reforms into the Grand Jokarium, a democratic state reminiscent of the Old Republic.

## Background

The Jokarun Republic was once one of the most prosperous nations that inhabited what is now the south eastern border of the Ragon Empire. It glory and majesty was known far and wide, as was the tales of its people’s supreme erudite wisdom that was as deep as the greatest lakes and as high as the heavens. It was a democracy that ruled with a fair hand over its constitutes. The senators of the Republic met every year in the capital world of Jokar Prime, where the Supreme Chancellor and the Senate decided for the good of the Republic. In the end, they pursued a pacifist in policy and neglected the military.

This era of peace and trade lasted for no less than thirty thousand years, their riches accumulating to ever greater heights as the nations of the galaxy came to the Republic, seeking for its exotic wares. This epoch of time was known as the Great Peace.

The Great Peace was broken when Ragon warships crossed the border between the Empire and the Republic, sparking the First Jokari-War. It was an absolute disaster for the Republic as millions died and billions more were enslaved and turned to livestock. The Republic steadily lost ground as its pitiful military could do little to hold back the Ragon tide.

However, there was one spark of hope. As the refugees streamed to Jokar Prime, the Supreme Chancellor ordered for the activation of the Undying Light; a great moon sized ark ship hidden within the nearest gas giant for over ten thousand millennia.

Months passed before the Ragons arrived to a burning system, with no trace of life left behind. The Jokari Untainted have left their home to survive within the void.

In the years that followed, the Corsairs were borne from those Jokarun that refused to stay within the walls of the Undying Light. These pirates would soon become some of the greatest terrors in the Neutral Zone. And thus, the Jokar Undivided was born, and the Council of Sixty Six that rules it has sworn that they will never surrender.

The Jokar Undivided is currently one of the strongest powers of the Neutral Zone mostly due to their technological and tactical superiority. However, its fractious nature ensures that it has a difficulty with properly projecting power with any effectivity. Still, it is said that if the Jokarun were to gain access to the resources and infrastructure required to field a robotic army like their warlike forefathers, they would indeed by a force to be reckoned with... if only they weren't so close to the cusp of death.

## Organization

Little is known about the JU’s organization, but it is generally known that the JU is led by the Council of Sixty-Six, which are the most powerful Sorcerers of the entire species. This Council is led by the Immortal Lord, Avakam Van Soren, who has lived from the days of the Undying Light’s construction. He is the single most powerful psyker of a race of powerful psykers, and it is said that the Immortal Lord and his Council are truly a force to be reckoned with.

The Old Republic’s democratic system has disappeared entirely, leaving the way for the magocratic Council of Sixty-Six to take control of all national affairs, as psykers have always led the local units of the Republic and the Imperium before it. However, it is pledged by the Council that once stability has returned to the Jokari species, democracy will return. This promise is fulfilled in the Beta Timeline with the formation of Grand Jokarium, which is led by elected representatives.
