The Sultanate of Fatiniyya Darussalam, or simply Fatiniyya, is an independent sultanate located in Northwestern Bareland. It borders the South Pacific Ocean to the West, Reizen and the DPRR in the north. The country spans an area of 92,207 km^2 with a population of roughly 8 million and a population density of 87/km^2. The country is predominantly Muslim with 97% of the population adhering to Sunni Islam, and the official language is Arabic. Fatiniyyan identity is heavily intertwined with Arabic culture and Islam. Its capital and largest city is Darussalam.
The region constituting modern-day Fatiniyya had been inhabited since ancient times. The region was home to the Sarateans, a trading state centered in the ancient city of Sara. The first Fatiniyyan state was founded following the unification of Fatiniyya in 1432, which was predated by the emirates of Darussalam, Diriyah, and Buq'a. Darussalam would slowly annex the emirates of Diriyah and Buq'a, as well as the territories of the Nusairiyya Order, which created the Sultanate of Fatiniyya.
In the 16th to 18th century, the Sultanate of Fatiniyya exerted influence over parts of Northern Bareland, however the state began to weaken in the 19th century. This came to ahead in 1880, when the War of Fatiniyyan Succession would explode, plunging the region to a civil war. In 1899, Sultan Usman II would become victorious, with the backing of the Grand Imam of Fatiniyya, the Fatiniyyan Majlis, as well as the population.
Etymology
The origins of the name Fatiniyya is believed to have come from the ruling House of Fatih, which was named after its founder, Fatih the Founder.
History
Arab settlement (130)
Over the centuries, Arab tribes settled in the Mediterranean coastal areas, namely in the Al-Youmna region and inhabiting important port settlements such as Iskandariyya. The most prominent tribe of the settlers were the Nizam tribes who were descendants of Fahm bin Nizam. They were known later as the "Nizamis of Youmna" or simply as the "Youmnis". Other tribes began moving into the interior of Bareland, establishing other towns such as Ridalla and Buq'a.
By 412, the areas around Iskandariyya had been consolidated by the Zimranid dynasty and created the independent kingdom of Iskandariyya. By the 7th century, the Youmnis came in contact with and accepted Islam. The ruler of Iskandariyya, Ja'far bin Hatim, readily accepted Islam, and through Iskandariyya, Islam would spread amongst the Arab tribes in Al-Youmna, eventually also reaching beyond Al-Fatih mountain range, into Buq'a and Diriyah. However, unlike in Al-Youmna, the city states of Buq'a and Diriyah remained loyal to their pagan faiths, and executed Ja'far's messengers to the two cities.
Fatihin campaign (734-738)
The public execution of the messengers of king Ja'far would spark the Fatihin campaign against the city states of Buq'a, Diriyah, Wahada, and Rusays. This military campaign would be led by the famed military commander, Fatih bin Hisyam. The Fatihin campaign ended in 738, with the four cities subjugated. As a reward for his success, king Ja'far promoted Fatih as governor of Al-Gharb, which would encompass the newly subjugated territories.
Decline of Iskandariyya (882)
By the 9th century, the Kingdom of Iskandariyya slowly began to lose control over many of its outermost territories. Rebellions sprang up, especially in Al-Gharb. In 882, with the death of Ja'far II, the empire fractured even further and rendered the governorates effectively independent.
The breakaway states and territories included: • Sultanate of Ridalla. Capital: Ridalla • Al-Ya'ruba (governors of the Buq'a Governorate). Capital: Buq'a • Brotherhood of the Order of Nusairiyya. Capital: Nusairiyya • Al-Burhan (governors of Wahada Governorate). Capital: Wahada (882-888; 914), Rusays (888-914) • Al-Husseini Governorate. Capital: Al-Husseini • Al-Majid (governors of Al-Tusiya Governorate. Later renamed to the Emirate of Tusiya). Capital: Al-Tusiya • Aghladid (governors of Diriyah Governorate). Capital: Diriyah • Husaymid (governors of Wahdan Governorate). Capital: Wahdan • Tarhanid (governors of Salloum Governorate). Capital: Salloum • Several interior tribes
With this, the only territories remaining in the Iskandariyya Empire is Iskandariyya proper and what's left of the Al-Gharb territories, which included the governorates of Darussalam and Al-Qadar.
Establishment of the Emirate of Darussalam (984)
In 972, the Governorate of Al-Qadar agreed to be incorporated into the larger Governorate of Darussalam. With Iskandariyya's influence declining further, Governor Shakir bin Husam, a descendant of General Fatih bin Hisyam, eventually decided to declare the Emirate of Darussalam in 984. Despite the objection by Iskandariyya's ruler, the regent Jamal bin Kazmi, the regent had no power to stop Darussalam from breaking away.
Wars of unification and proclamation of the sultanate (1328-1432)
During 1328, the wealthy Emirate of Darussalam began expanding to its neighbors, projecting its power over the other states in the area. The Emirate of Diriyah would be annexed in 1329, creating the Emirate of Darussalam and Diriyah. The Brotherhood of the Order of Nusairiyya, which controlled the areas around Nusairiyya, would be annexed following a victorious campaign by Fatih III in 1352.
