| History: |
The Rashidun Caliphate (الخلافة الراشدة), meaning "The Rightly Guided Caliphate," was established after the passing of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in the 7th century CE. It marks the golden era of Islamic governance, founded upon justice, consultation (shura), and adherence to the Qur'an and Sunnah. Guided by four righteous Caliphs—Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan, and Ali ibn Abi Talib (رضي الله عنهم)—the Caliphate expanded swiftly, reaching from the Arabian Peninsula to North Africa, Persia, and parts of the Byzantine Empire.
In the world of Orbis, the Rashidun Caliphate was reborn as a sovereign nation in 2025 under the leadership of Muhammad Rayan. Inspired by the original Caliphs’ principles, the modern Rashidun state embraces pious governance, civic responsibility, and an ethical economy. While contemporary in infrastructure and technology, its political and social systems remain deeply rooted in Islamic ideals. The reborn Caliphate seeks to unite the Ummah peacefully, defend the oppressed, and spread justice and knowledge. |

| Economy |
| Description: |
The Rashidun Caliphate operates a hybrid theocratic-market economy. While entrepreneurship and private enterprise are encouraged, all sectors are governed by Islamic economic principles—free from usury (riba), and with a focus on ethical investment, equitable wealth distribution, and social welfare. The state collects zakat (charitable tax), which funds public services, education, infrastructure, and support for the poor. Trade plays a vital role, as it did during the early Islamic Caliphates, with caravans, maritime routes, and tech-based exports fueling a robust GDP.
A nationalized banking system ensures fairness, while a waqf system (religious endowments) supports universities, hospitals, and public housing. The economy thrives on a balance between faith and innovation.

| History: |
Military Forces:
The Rashidun Armed Forces (RAF) trace their lineage to the disciplined armies of Khalid ibn al-Walid and other legendary generals. In the modern era, they were re-established on February 2, 2025, with the founding of the Caliphate. The military is divided into five branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, Strategic Missile Corps, and Cyber Defense Wing.
Compulsory service ensures readiness, while elite units like the "Swords of Ali" and "Guardians of Umar" serve specialized roles. Training emphasizes discipline, tactics, and faith-based ethics in combat. The military doctrine blends historical guerrilla-style flexibility with modern technology and defense systems, including drones and missile defense. The Rashidun military’s mission is to defend the Ummah, deter aggression, and uphold justice globally through peace or, when necessary, strength. |
