(Redirected from Jamuraan)

Jamuraa refers to a major supercontinent on Dominaria, but there is some confusion as to if it is the name of the entire continent or if it actually designates only the subcontinent on the northwestern portion on which the Mirage War took place. It is located about two thousand miles south of Corondor. Jamuraa extends for several thousand miles, much of it controlled by the Suq'Ata Empire and the bipedal lizards known as the Viashino. The continent is linked to a string of other continents controlled by Rabiahan descendents. Far to the northeast of this super-continent lies Shiv. The northwest of the huge continent is occupied by three nations: the militaristic Kingdom of Zhalfirins, the religious state of Femeref, and the trading province of the Suq'Ata Empire. Portals to Rabiah and Wildfire were once common on this continent.

[edit] History

[edit] Ancient History

This region remained relatively stable for millenia, being untouched by the Brothers' War, discovering the use of magic very early (possibly before any other region) and using it to keep the Ice Age from affecting it.

[edit] Conflict and Mangara's Harmony

After he settled on Jamuraa, the wizard Mangara created an peace agreement between the rivalling nations. When Femeref and Zhalfir could not agree on a border, Mangara created a buffer zone near the Unyaro jungle. To police this zone, he summoned a large contingent of Quirion elves. The creating of peace with Suq'Ata was trickier but resulted eventually in a trade agreement. Within a century Mangara's Harmony created a new age of enlightenment.

[edit] The Mirage Wars

Zhalfir, Femeref, Suq-Ata united against Kaervek after the vanishing of Mangara. During Mirage Wars the country was plundered by Kaervek's troops, and plagued by the Nightstalkers of Urborg.

[edit] Two Invasions

Later Jamuraa was subject to a Keldon invasion right before the Phyrexian Invasion. After the later war, the planeswalker Teferi decided to save the region further strife, and phased out the subcontinent. In Future Sight when Shiv and Zhalfir needed to be phased back in, there were complications with the time rifts, and as a result, Jeska Planeswalker sealed the rift before Zhalfir could be phased back in, thereby effectively erasing the country from existence.

Jamuraa was the setting for the Mirage, Visions, and Prophecy expansions.
