Injah

## Overview

Founded on May 30th, 2021 in Eldham, Injah is a jungle settlement on the continent of Phoros, and is part of Arktania. Created by CoolAwesome, the original goal was to protect the jungles and forests of Eldham from colonization and the greed from mighty empires, however it was swallowed by surrounding powers centuries ago, and is now a sparsely populated town in the jungle North-East of Arrakis, the capital of Arktania.

## Brief History

Injah was originally a constitutional monarchy, surrounded by Stoneguard to its west, and Canaan to it's east. The nation had enjoyed an initial period of growth, gaining some lands from Canaan. Injah also had close ties to Drak Yamar, as well as Limuria. In Eldham's early history, Injah aided Limuria in their wars against Skjoldrbrodir.

Using the lands gained from Canaan, further cities were built: Floresta, Lothric and Andau. The nation prospered for many years, with many companies across Phoros coming to set up in Injah's borders. However, as years and years passed, the nation fell into stagnation, and as Stoneguard annexed Canaan and reformed into Titania, Business dried up in Injah as people traded out the traditional jungle lifestyle for working in the cities in other more developed nations. Injah was quickly under immense pressure from it's larger neighbour. This only intensified as Titania later united with The Republic of Urak to form the Uraki Imperium. Injah was now under too much pressure to withstand, formally being annexed by Uraka shortly after its formation (late August 2021). Following this, Injah's people left in droves to find work in the Uraki cities, leaving only small clusters of the natives to maintain the land. Floresta, Lothric and Andau were eventually completely abandoned, and the city of Injah itself fell into disrepair. As years passed, the jungle devoured the old cities, leaving only ruins behind. Injah was still inhabited, but only to a small degree. Uraka collapsed some decades later following the Old Banners' Rebellion. As it collapsed under it's own weight, Injah could have reclaimed its independence had it not been as sparsely populated as it was. It was, by this point, too reliant on it's neighbours. The area was enveloped into the Imperial Realm of Arktania, one of the states rising from what was once Uraka. The town remained quiet, even during this chaos.

## Arktania

Injah saw virtually no change under Arktania. Some small renovations were made, but nothing major. This was until Lhytt Poliorcetes, previously a major politician in the Drakaeslands, arrived in Arktania from Amarillo. Lhytt turned down a government position in Arktania, and instead became Arkkon (a title for local rulers) of Injah. Seeing potential in the small, mismanaged settlement, Lhytt decided to start a project to completely reinvent Injah, and turn it into a bustling city. The old jungle settlement would be preserved, but in and around the empty sections of Jungle, modern, urban buildings would be built.

However, this was not to be. While a large section of Jungle in the east side of Injah was being cleared, to make way for "Hilshifran Palace," which would house Lhytt and his family, Lhytt, however, would begin to act out-of-character, being seen as paranoid and skittish. The once confident man was now fearful of leaving his quarters, until he mysteriously vanished one day. Despite the strange circumstances around Lhytt's dissappearance, the Arktanian government named his "death" as natural causes, despite no body ever being found, leading to lots of speculation amongst the general public. Regardless, the fate of Injah was now up in the air once again with the mysterious loss of it's Arkkon...
