Haritdesh, officially the Haritdesh Confederacy (Adarani: हरितदेश संघ), is a riyasat (princely state) of Çakaristan, located between the Monalan Parvat (Monlan Mountains) and Lake Jodha. The Haritdesh Confederation consists of six states, each headed by a prince. It is the most populous state within the Çakaristan and the fourth largest in area.
Etymology
The name "Haritdesh" is a compound of two words, "harit" (Adarani: हरित) means 'green' and "desh" (Adarani: देश) means 'land'.
The earlier names of the area are "Aryasht" and "Aryadesh". As part of the Çakar revolution, the name "Haritdesh" was introduced. The name was coined by considering the first names as historical and referring to the period between 1632 and 1691 AN that the area was abandoned to the Green.
History
In 1442 AN, the precursor of present-day Haritdesh Aryasht was founded. Aryasht has been on and off independently. It has been under the flags of Antica, Shireroth and Jingdao. In 1632 AN, the area was abandoned and lapsed into The Green. With the expansion of Çakaristan, this area was also incorporated. The ancient borders of Aryasht are largely the present-day borders of Haritdesh.
List of rulers
The rulers before Choygall Kamala are not known. It is conceivable that Aryasht was ruled by a council, similar to the present-day Maulikpur Durbar. The list of known rulers:

Government
Chhatrapati
In 1690 AN, Haritdesh became a confederation, simultaneously with its annexation by Çakaristan. It was thought to restore the system of more than a hundred Nortonyears before. Only still, there remained a central leader who was allowed to use the title 'Chhatrapati'. Chhatrapati is a compound of 'umbrella' and 'ruler' from Samsrumukhat. This included arranging for the leader of the confederation to be rotated each time among the princes of the participating princely states. But the rotation did not take place, Shivaji Bhonsale, the first Chhatrapati, remained leader until his death in 1726. His successor, Karel Kyle des Vinandy, was elected permanent leader.
The primary role of the Chhatrapati is to promote the interests of Haritdesh to the national level. Settle any conflicts between the princes and preside over the Maulikpur Durbar. Only this precise interpretation is not enshrined in any kind of constitution. As deputy or political leader, the Chhatrapati appoints a Peshwa. Who functions as chief minister.
Maulikpur Durbar
The Maulikpur Durbar is an assembly of the princes of the confederate states. The assembly is chaired by the Chhatrapati. The gathering of the Maulikpur Durbar is once a year. For the day-to-day administration of the confederation, there is a meeting of delegates which is chaired by the Peshwa. The meeting with the princes is popularly called the First Durbar, while the meeting with the delegates is called the Second Durbar.
Raajy
The confederation consists of several princely states called Raajy:
