Official Factbook of the United Dominion
of the Holy Raj
A Public Letter from His Majesty, by the Grace of God, the White Maharajah, King-Emperor Victor-Ji IV, Khan-Sahib of the Dominon of the Holy Raj, Head of the the Church of the Dominion, Defender of the Faith.
Dear reader,
thank you for taking an interest in our glorious nation, and we hope that you will be both educated and interested by this state-sponsored information site. The Holy Raj is a geographically large nation, comprising the entire Indian Subcontinent, as well as some parts of the East Indies. It ranges from the icy mountainous regions in the north, home of the elite Gurkha troops, to the sweltering rainforests of the Burmese Protectorate, some areas of which remain unexplored. From the rocky deserts of the North-West Frontier to the cobbled streets of Chandrapore, it is a nation of many peoples, tongues, beliefs and cultures. Its population reflects this in its diversity, being made up of the Native Bengalis, Jats, Punjabis, Gurkhas, Sikhs, Kashmiris, Afghans, and of course, the British. To those who accuse our nation of racism, we would point out that this idea is a complete fallacy. The British are, of course, important to the government of the Raj, and were, once, seen as superior to the natives. However, those days are long gone, and even our Royal Family has intermarried with the Indian Princes, and the Raj is now a nation of complete racial and religious tolerance. We hope that the Raj's colourful history will not dominate its future. This History can be viewed in the first chapter of this Factbook. Once more, we hope it will prove an enjoyable read.
Heaven's Light Our Guide.
HM King-Emperor Victor-Ji IV, Khan Shaib of the Dominion of the Holy Raj.
