A’lam Al-jinn es un dominio independiente.
The Monarch is elected every year by First Ones by banner. It is their responsibility to proclaim the High Chief as elected by the Assembly. Furthermore, it is their responsibility to ensure that the seats of the Assembly are given to the rightful Chief of each state in the A'lam.
Thus, the role of the Monarch is largely bureaucratic. The true political power of the Princely States lies in the Assembly of Chiefs.
The High Chief of the A'lam Al-jinn is elected by the Assembly of Chiefs. Its holder manages the overall diplomatic stance of the Princely States and presides over the Assembly as first among equals.
The Chieftains of the Princely States sit in council in order to discuss the affairs of their realms. Each Chiefdom is free to determine its own governance and structure, and each is entitled to a seat on the Assembly.
The Princely States of A'lam Al-jinn are a collection of principalities united by a proud heritage of industry. Its princes and princesses are properly called Chief in the local culture, and thus, its polities are Chiefdoms.
Each Chiefdom holds one seat on the Assembly. The Assembly of Chiefs holds the most power in the A'lam Al-jinn since, when backed my a simple majority among themselves, their decisions are binding across the realm. However, each Chiefdom is free to govern itself as it wishes so long as no contrary law by the Assembly is enacted. Most importantly, the Assembly selects the High Chief who reigns over the A'lam Al-jinn.
The High Chief is, for the most part, first among equals in the Assembly. However, their assent is necessary for any new Chiefdom to officially enter the A'lam and gain a seat in the Assembly. The High Chief serves for life, although the Assembly can remove them from office should at least two-thirds vote to do so.
The Chiefdom of Madja-as is comprised of the heartlands of the original A'lam Al-jinn. It houses the ceremonial capital of the realm in Phoenix.
The Chiefdom of Ranao was formed out of the conquest of mountain abodes on the mainland. Its isolated estates have made its people fiercely independent.
