Confederacy of Jahseh | Jahluhets

 * Government: Tribal federation
 * Ruler: Koi'san (b.985, r.994-)
 * Dynasty: Pinochet
 * Economy: The Jahsehtic economy is mainly based around subsistence farming, fishing, and mining operations. Trade is conducted with neighboring tribes and the Inca to our west. Trade is mostly still conducted on a barter system, although the beginnings of a standardized currency have taken shape across the nation, with standardized barter rates (e.g. 3 corn husks for a fresh fish, 50 corn husks for a small bag of Incan-imported salt) in place. This "standardized barter system" has been aided in acceptance by the advent of the Jahsehtic script, allowing merchants the ability to track purchases and set prices more easily.

 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Guarani War: The Jahluhet Army continues to inch along the coast, with orders to capture the Gua-Vah capital of Adjupi. They are told to "leave no man alive, and do to the women and children what you want". A contingent of 5000 troops breaks off, and is sent to garrison the major towns and cities along the Uruguay River to protect against Gua-Vah incursions. The Guarani clans and tribes who have joined us in our endeavors are asked to help invade and occupy the Gua-Vah interior, as well as to provide reconnaissance and help us master the foreign terrain of the area. Clans and tribes loyal to the Jahluhets are promised vast tracts of land and loot in the soon-to-be vanquished Gua-Vah Federation. We also reach out to the northern Guarani tribes, who have declined to join the deplorable Gua-Vah, and ask them to raid their northern fringes, in return for increased trade opportunities with our enlightened nation, as well as helping their peoples become as enlightened as we are, without being subject to our rule.
 * Events:
 * Civilizing the New Territories, part 2: Trade and contact with the "allied Guarani", as the common people now refer to the Guarani that have voluntarily joined our great nation, continues to be sponsored by the government, as more and more Jahist priests preach that it is the will of the gods for our people to civilize the Guarani savages. Envoys are sent to Guarani clan leaders, asking them to set up trading post towns in order for more efficient trading. We also begin to slowly introduce civilized things such as taxation, agriculture, markets, religious institutions, wells and baths to the Guarani people. After sending out a census to accurately count the numbers of Guarani, we make sure each and every Guarani household is allotted a fairly sizable farm to their name, in order to incentivize them to settle down.
 * The Cult of T'ano: The following of the Cult of T'ano grows, especially in the far northern "frontier" cities of Ayeni, Komiseh, and Cokonseh. The Jahist priesthood have not commented on this development yet.
 * The Road of Many Heights: A singular road, wide enough for 5 people to pass each other abreast, paved with stones for a substantial portion of its length, and stretching across the entire length of South America, from the heartland of the Jahluhet nation to the mining towns of the Incan-controlled Atacama Desert, is completed. This road, known across the known world (in early 11th century Jahluhet perspective, OTL northern and central Argentina, Uruguay, northern Chile, southern Peru and Bolivia, most of Paraguay, and Brazil south of OTL Rio de Janeiro) as the Road of Many Heights, after the various altitudes and climates the road passes through. It was heavily utilized as a trade route between the Confederacy and the Incan Empire, played as much a part in the development of the cultures of South America as the Silk Road did in the Old World, and is easily the most impressive feat of the Jahluhet civilization to exist.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Gua-Vah Federation: You asked for this. Now you will suffer.
 * Northern Guarani tribes: Psst. Please raid the Gua-Vah. We'll give you stuff in return. Land, plundered gold, increased trade, an alliance, the secrets of farming, our civilized principles, anything.
