Jingdao

The Ying Emperor is perceived as the 'founding father' of the Jingdaoese people, starting a strong - if not unbreakable - bound between the Jingdaoese people and its Emperor.

The name Jingdao (淨道, Jìngdào, "pure path"; in Sangunese pronunciation: Jōdō or Seidō), or the Pure Path, is most used when referring to the Apollonian-based nation under the Great Jing Dynasty and its main culture and language (see also Jing). The empire currently occupies a large part of Apollonia and is seen as a stable autocratic nation. Its current ruler is the Chidao Emperor.

It can, according to the Greater Jing School refer to several of its dynasties:

1. The Empire of the Glorious Sun (1462bAN - 351bAN)
2. Empire of the Pure Path (Jingdao) (351bAN - present)
   1. The Zuxiang Dynasty (351 bAN - 264)
   2. The Wangzi Dynasty (265 - 987)
   3. Youya Dynasty (987 - 1451)
   4. Jierdai Dynasty (1451 - 1623)
   5. the Great Jing Dynasty (1623 - 1700)
   6. the Jingdaoese Community (1700 - 1704), within the Great Apollonian Empire.
   7. The Democratic Apollonian Republic of Kildare (1704 - 1707)
   8. Greater Kildare, as part of the Imperial Republic of Shireroth (1707 AN - present)
