Counted as separate entities are also many territories - mostly islands with military bases or scientific stations - across the planet; the most notable of those is the ''Lalla Kehamyutia'' (“High North”), jointly governed with Askand, Skyrdagor, and Brono, which is a large but almost uninhabited territory (as almost two thirds of it are covered by an ice sheet) consisting of the whole part of Eastern Márusúturon north of the 68th parallel north. | Counted as separate entities are also many territories - mostly islands with military bases or scientific stations - across the planet; the most notable of those is the ''Lalla Kehamyutia'' (“High North”), jointly governed with Askand, Skyrdagor, and Brono, which is a large but almost uninhabited territory (as almost two thirds of it are covered by an ice sheet) consisting of the whole part of Eastern Márusúturon north of the 68th parallel north. | ||

While the consolidation of the Inquisition as a single state is fairly recent, the Inquisition as a body was formed in the Great Plains at the beginning of the Second Era as a churchlike body run by the Inquisitors (''murkadhānai'', literally “black hands”, due to many early rituals requiring the use of ''lunīla'' berries and their pitch-black unedible juice), the preachers of the Yunyalīlti religion.<br/> | While the consolidation of the Inquisition as a single state is fairly recent, the Inquisition as a body was formed in the Great Plains at the beginning of the Second Era as a churchlike body run by the Inquisitors (''murkadhānai'', literally “black hands”, due to many early rituals requiring the use of ''lunīla'' berries and their pitch-black unedible juice), the preachers of the Yunyalīlti religion.<br/> | ||

There are in total 156 dioceses in the Inquisition, divided into 18 tribunals (but two dioceses are not part of any tribunal, both insular dioceses between the rest of the Inquisition and the continent of Védren): ''Jade Coast Area'' (16, <small>lilac in the map above</small>), ''Eastern Plain'' (10, <small>dark light blue</small>), ''Namaikęeh - Northern Plain'' (7, <small>brown</small>), ''Central Plain'' (9, <small>violet</small>), ''Western Plain'' (7, <small>golden orange</small>), ''Inland Southwest'' (8, <small>earth green</small>), ''Coastal Southwest'' (6, <small>deep green</small>), ''South'' (14, <small>light blue</small>), ''Near East'' (6, <small>pale orange</small>), ''Southern Far East'' (7, <small>red</small>), ''Far Eastern Islands'' (6, <small>grayish blue</small>), ''Northern Far East'' (9, <small>yellow</small>), ''East'' (9, <small>light green</small>), ''Northeast'' (9, <small>orange</small>), ''North'' (10, <small>dark light blue</small>), ''Near West'' (6, <small>purple</small>), ''Northwest'' (7, <small>light blue</small>), and ''West'' (10, <small>dark blue</small>).

Some dioceses consist of two separate administrative units with a single religious head - these are mostly newer developments, where effectively a new "state" has been created for all matters except the most strictly religious ones. Depending on the diocese, these separate units may be called ''provinces'' ('''ṣramāṇa''') - for larger but less densely populated areas - or ''quaestorship'' ('''ṭūmma''') - for smaller, mostly urban areas. Quaestorships are a special kind of administrative division, as they are only divided in municipalities, but they are normally counted as cities statistically - for example the capital city of the Inquisition, ''Līlasuṃghāṇa'', is listed as the nation's largest city, with 9Ɛ,4 raicė/29.8 million inhabitants - there is however no such entity as the city of Līlasuṃghāṇa, but only its quaestorship. There are in total six quaestorships in the Inquisition: ''Līlasuṃghāṇa'' (diocese of Nanašīrama), ''Ilėnimarta'' (diocese of Kanyāvālna), ''Līṭhalyinām'' (Latayūlima), ''Līlta'' (Mīdhūpraṇa), ''Cami'' (Haikamotė), and ''Naiṣambella'' (Yayadalga); apart from the latter (counting 16,1 raicė/4.5 million people), all other ones have more than 36 raicė (~10.4 million) inhabitants and are the five largest cities of the country. | Some dioceses consist of two separate administrative units with a single religious head - these are mostly newer developments, where effectively a new "state" has been created for all matters except the most strictly religious ones.

The next local level is the circuit ('''lalka'''), whose denomination changes in some dioceses — '''hālgāra''' (district) in parts of the Southern Far East; '''jāndaca''' (county) across the Northeast; '''bamaba''' (kingdom) in most Western dioceses; '''būlīṃhaka''' (flag) in the rural North; '''tamekih''' (assembly) in the three rainforest dioceses of Talæñoya, Yalyakātāma, and Vælvmaichlam (in the latter, the city of Pamahīnėna (the largest inland rainforest city of the Inquisition) is coterminous with the assembly), and '''lanaikiloe''' (island council) in the Kāyīchah islands — without major differences in competences (though it should be noted that competences of circuits or equivalent administrations are not centralized, but defined by the diocese or province). | The next local level is the circuit ('''lalka'''), whose denomination changes in some dioceses — '''hālgāra''' (district) in parts of the Southern Far East; '''jāndaca''' (county) across the Northeast; '''bamaba''' (kingdom) in most Western dioceses; '''būlīṃhaka''' (flag) in the rural North; '''tamekih''' (assembly) in the three rainforest dioceses of Talæñoya, Yalyakātāma, and Vælvmaichlam (in the latter, the city of Pamahīnėna (the largest inland rainforest city of the Inquisition) is coterminous with the assembly), and '''lanaikiloe''' (island council) in the Kāyīchah islands — without major differences in competences (though it should be noted that competences of circuits or equivalent administrations are not centralized, but defined by the diocese or province). | ||
