 +====== Jiyuuian ======
 +Jiyuuian is a cultural term that was invented by the citizens of the [[faction:united_outer_colonies]] to differentiate themselves from the citizens of the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]]. It is not an actual species.
 +
 +Jiyuuians typically are:
 +
 +  - People who were part of the UOC in [[timeline:ye_30]] when it broke off from the YSE
 +  - born in the UOC during its brief existence
 +  - born to parents who consider themselves Jiyuuian
 +
 +===== History =====
 +After the secession of the United Outer Colonies in [[timeline:ye_30]], there was a question of what term to use to identify the species that made up most of the UOC. Most UOC citizens were culturally Yamataian and biologically [[species:nh-22c|Yamataian (NH-22C)]], although some transferred into [[corp:united_manufacturing_cooperative:ni-aria|UMC's Synthetic NI-ARIA bodies]]. There are also a handful of [[species:Nekovalkyrja]] that identify as Jiyuuians althoguh this is very rare, as Nekovalkyrja bodies were returned to Yamatai as [[stararmy:start]] equipment in the early days of the UOC.
 +
 +A rebranding was needed. The term "Jiyuu" is [[language:Yamataigo]] for "Freedom" and the [[system:jiyuu|Jiyuu star system]] was the capital system of the newly-formed UOC. 
 +
 +Although the UOC failed and was dissolved in [[timeline:ye_33]], the term stayed in use in some regions.
 +
 +
 +==== Current Status ====
 +Most Jiyuuians that didn't die to the [[faction:mishhuvurthyar:nmx]] in the [[timeline:events:second_mishhuvurthyar_war]] were evacuated to the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]] and lived in [[stararmy:refugee_facilities|Refugee Camps]] for a while. In [[timeline:ye_36]], Yamatai began offering them return trips back home and the remaining camps closed as they emptied. By [[timeline:ye_38]] the refugee camps were no longer necessary.
 +
 +Others Jiyuuians were evacuated to the [[faction:democratic_imperium_of_nepleslia]]. See [[timeline:events:tange_evacuation]].
 +
 +There are also some Jiyuuians who became part of the [[faction:lorath]].
 +
 +====Jiyuuians in the Motoyoshi Colonial Sector====
 +
 +Since [[timeline:ye_42]], the cultural concept of the [[faction:united_outer_colonies:culture:jiyuuian|]] has faded in the [[places:motoyoshi_colonial_sector]] as the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] pushed their campaigns and agendas through platforms like the [[faction:yamatai:yugumo_workers_federation|]] which exposed the criminal activities of the Tange Clan and the former [[faction:united_outer_colonies]]. After the [[https://stararmy.com/roleplay-forum/threads/terrorist-plot-foiled-during-lantern-festival-on-jiyuu.65563/|Attempted Terrorist Attack at YE 42 Lantern Festival]], hold out citizens in [[corp:united_manufacturing_cooperative:ni-aria|]] rushed to transfer to [[species:minkan|]] bodies to show respect to the restored ruling clan and reject the agenda of the terrorists. 
 +
 +===== Cultural Highlights =====
 +According to the United Outer Colonies, the Jiyuuians:
 +
 +  * speak [[language:yamataigo]]
 +  * tend to be very social, even if they do not know the others they are interacting with.
 +  * avoid violence, only resorting to it in situations of dire circumstances.
 +  * believe in social mobility, are against [[:slavery]], and ownership of individuals.
 +  * are deeply devoted to their families and friends.
 +  * tend to be very proactive in promoting themselves, stemming from a lengthy history of being on the fringes of society when they were part of the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]].
 +  * very accepting of other species; are interested in learning about new cultures.
 +  * devoted to the foundations of peacekeeping and diplomacy.
