J'aadje Nations

The loose political alliance of J'aadje clans on Gaajpadge. The various city states are not unified, but share cultural traditions. Among these is the presentation of wealth and displays of elegant artistry as a means of gaining status.

The ceremonial capital of the Nations is Rijudjya, where various oligarchs meet to demonstrate their wealth and negotiate agreements. They gather at the Palace of Proprieties Shared. The palace is six stories tall, and contains some 90 rooms, the largest being the Hall of Courtesies Remembered on the ground floor.

Some K'Tring have settled in J'aadje cities, usually as menial labourers. Most of these are criminals fleeing from K'Tring authorities, or descendants of such criminals. However, a number are also agents of the K'Tring state, reporting to the Warlord of K'Tring and his people via radio.
