Illyrian Academy

Illyrian's Emblem

Illyrian Academy (イリリアンアカデミー, Iryuria akademī ) is one of the Minor Schools in both PaA and GiA, but it is the Protagonist School in GiA.

## Overview

Illyrian Academy is a public school in Kakamigahara, Gifu Prefecture. Most of its students are either delinquents or didn't get lucky enough to join their dream schools, such as J.I.G.A in the Takoshima Prefecture, the Yankee High in the Okinawa Island, the Royal Baron in Tokyo, and Red Square in Karafuto Prefecture.

These types of diversity caused the school to be divided into four departments where they honed their culture, tradition, and even ideology that sometimes clashed with the others' ideology, thus sparking a "turf war", which is a common sight within the school's vicinity.

## Purpose

The Academy's purpose as a Non-Aligned School is to be self-dependent as possible, allowing its students to grow to itself without the influence or alignment outside the school, this caused the Academy to be the last resort to Students who didn't managed to enter their desired Schools, but this caused a lot of trouble as students who joined the Academy were typically Students who were expelled, transferred, and/or didn't managed to enrolled their desired school.

This setback brought the attention to create the National Council, or the Coalition of Arbitrators, Illyrian Academy's Peacekeepers who maintains peace within the Illyrian's ground and School-Ship.

## The Four Departments

In Illyrian Academy, the school is divided by four departments. Each Department has their own duties that contributed with the development of the School, but their differences is the reason why they don't tend to cooperate with the other departments.

### These departments are:

* Illyrian's Home Department
* Illyrian's Industry Department
* Illyrian's Mutable Department
* Illyrian's Impartial Department
1/4
* Home Department
* Industrial Department
* Mutable Department
* Impartial Department

There's also a fifth Department and they act as the Governing body for Illyrian Academy whose authority and power surpassed all the four departments, though that power and authority is given to a single person called the **"Chief Vejvoda"**, the President/Manager/War-Chief of the School. The Fifth Department is a council consists of each "**Department Vejvodas**" and a single neutral student who was voted by the four Department to become the "**Chief Vejvoda**". The name of this group is the "**National Council"**.

## History

Contrary to popular belief, Illyrian Academy is not related to the former Illyrian Academy that was founded in the year of 1703.

History of a Non-Aligned Academy was dated back during the start of the Non-Aligned Movement in 1956, efforts for the Non-Aligned Nations during that time was to promote its mutual interests, committed on its role to ensure world peace and security. Even though Japan wasn't on the list as members of the movement since it was more or less aligned to the United States, cooperation was still made between Japan and Yugoslavia, one of the founder members of the Movement, to stabilize and improve relationships as a "mutual interest of World Peace."

The idea behind the creation of Illyrian Academy was proposed by Lohannes Giovanni Paštrić, a scientist, poet, linguist, editor, and the Ambassador of Yugoslavia to Japan in 1962. The idea was to create a School that was unlike ever before, a School that is Non-Aligned, unbiased to others, not aligned to any other entity, and self-dependent. At first the idea was scrapped since a Non-Aligned School is a direct product of the Non-Aligned Movement and a mockery of Japan's *Sakoku* period but as soon as many Countries and their efforts that established many Schools within Japan, the idea became more and more of a necessity than a hindrance. Soon the idea became a project in the year of 1900, but the idea was almost scrapped again as Yugoslavia faced itself a Civil War, since Yugoslavia was its sponsor. Ideally the project was to be halted or even be scrapped, but the creation still continued under the supervision of Peter Marki, the founder and first Chairperson of the Academy.

Illyrian Academy was founded in April 7, 1902, the same day as Yugoslavia got dissolved. The name "Illyrian" was chosen by Peter in honor of his friend's favor Lohannes Paštrić, in which Lohannes was Croatian and believed to be a descendant from ancient Illyrians.
