=== Government === | |||
The Jalielin have a plutocratic monarchy. They are ruled by a Sultan, determined by royal family, who has authority over levying taxes and ultimate say over the judicial system, but there is also a council of twelve plutocrats (three from each city), who vote on laws and logistics. The Plutocrats are the three wealthiest land owners in each of the four cities. The Sultan is required to attend the Plutocrats councils, and is allowed to speak their opinion, but they do not have a vote in any relevant decisions. The Sultan lives in SOUTHEASTCITY, in a palace, and the Plutocratic Council is held in the NORTHWESTCITY. | |||

=== Population Distribution === | |||
There are four major cities in Jalielin, the capitol of the same name, Jalielin City, as well as NAME, NAME, and NAME. Jalielin is primarily populated by Doppelgangers, and due to the stigma associated with Doppelgangers, it has very low incoming immigration. In the three Outer Cities, there is an almost reciprocal prejudice against non-Doppelgangers immigrating to them, but the capitol of Jalielin City is much more progressive and open minded. There is an almost kinship between the Doppelgangers, Automatons, and Stoneblooms, because they are all similarly ostracized over their non-standard physiology. The overall population distribution of Jalielin is Doppelganger (85%), Automaton (6%), Stonebloom (6%), Misc. Lineages (3%). | |||
==== Jalielin City (Capitol) ==== | |||
Jalielin City is the capitol of Jalielin, and is by far the most progressive of the four major cities in Jalielin. Being right next to the MIDDLENAME range, their wealth is based on their mines. There is a wealth of iron and gold in the MIDDLENAME range, which lead to the initial building of wealth, causing Jalielin City to become the capitol. Gold and iron works are the main exports. Jalielin City has a very stratified social and wealth class, there are the very rich on the top, and the very poor who live in slums. There is a very small middle class in Jalielin City.<br> | |||
The population distribution of Jalielin City is Doppelganger (64%), Automaton (12%), Stonebloom (11%), Misc. Lineages (13%). | |||
