The '''Mery''' (mehrileh: '''''mehri''''' [mɛri]) are a semi-nomadic religious peoples present within the Civ meta community. Originally developing as a culture within [[The Workers' Party]] in late 2021, the Mery have since formed various independent settlements across Civ servers and have continued their lineage on [[CivMC]]. The Mery are anarchistic in their political nature, not dissimilar to the quasi-cossack militaristic [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makhnovshchina Makhnovia] anarchist society. They are united by their common religious beliefs they call ''rhayatshola'', which defines their mutually beneficial relationship between them and their sun god ''Tshola''. On CivMC, they plan to exist not only as their own sovereign entity but also as semi-autonomous sub-entities within other sovereign states in what they've described as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurdistan Kurdistan]-esque.

===== Foreign persons or entities integrating into djani'hweh =====
Over the course of djani'hweh's history, multiple people and/or groups have successfully sought permission to settle onto Mery land and have subsequently became Mery themselves.
On June 12th 2022, player Merkuis asked to establish a yurt and farms, all of which to be built without terraforming, in djani'hweh territory and was granted such permission<ref name=":2">https://civbooks.github.io/books/CivMC/AmandaCC/VEHOD_Vol.1.html Pages 48-59</ref>. They became pre-approved for Mery initiation on June 30th.<ref>https://civbooks.github.io/books/CivMC/AmandaCC/VEHOD_Vol.1.html Pages 91-96</ref>
On June 15th, [[RedDevel]], after having finished his term as Governor of [[Mount Augusta (CivMC)|MtA]], requested permission to build a castle mega-build in the north of djani'hweh<ref>https://civbooks.github.io/books/CivMC/AmandaCC/VEHOD_Vol.1.html Pages 69-75</ref>, which would later be known as Develhof or dehvehlhof.
Sometime around June 25th, a group of players, having barely settled the land north of djani'hweh, were made aware the island was used by the Mery people, and negotiations began in order to work out an agreement between the group of new settlers (known as Khro'Kal), who plan on building inside a mountain, and the Mery. The two groups came to an agreement a few days after, enforcing mutual tribute and recognizing Khro'Kal as holding authority over the inside of the mountains of the land north of the river passing through Yoahdam's Cover.
