Farmâns of Jadid Khaz Modan

As an Imperial Dominion, the Emirate, comprising of the islands of Amity and Yardistan and their dependencies, operates under the purview of Imperial "Federal" Law; however Imperial Law does not cover every aspect of public life. Outside of the law, life on the islands is regulated in accordance with ancient Babkhi custom and philosophy. The function of the Emir or Emira therefore is to uphold and defend the Harmonious Society through orders known as farmâns, that regulate the political, social and economic aspects of life on the island.

The following Kānūn, or code, inspired by contemporary best practice, is a list of Farmâns issued by the Emira, Isabella Simrani-Kalirion, Governeress of Emirate of Jadid Khaz Modan and her successors.
