The Kingdom of Indradhanush (in-dra-dha-nush Listen (help·info)) lit. Rainbow (Hindi: इंद्रधनुष राज्य , Bengali: ইন্দ্রধনুষ রাজ্য ), more commonly known as simply Indradhanush or informally Rainbow[c], is a sovereign state,[d] called a micronation by external observers, consisting of multiple non-contiguous pieces of land, with its mainland located within Bengaluru, India. It was founded on 13 February 2021. The Kingdom's form of government is an absolute monarchy, defined by the Constitution of Indradhanush. It was solely based on a monarchy as it is the most common government system within micronationalism. The mainland consists of one city—the capital and most populous Chandril City. It also has a Special Administrative Region called Suryodaya.
The locality in which Indradhanush is located (Kudlu) first emerged when Jyothi Labs set up a factory for their famous brand, Ujala. The factory was eventually demolished due to environmental concerns. The construction of the factory led to the creation of various pharmacies and clinics. Due to Kudlu having various empty plots, BBMP decided to set up a waste management factory, known as KCDC. Zee Learn Ltd later set up a Mount Litera Zee School. Eventually, Kudlu became more and more residential. The residents started to protest about the stench from the KCDC Compost plant. Various outdoor activities have been suspended in the Mount Litera Zee School, Kudlu due to it.[4][5]
The nation was a member of the Micronational Assembly from 29 March 2021 till November 2021 and helped in the formation of the MID Act.[6] It was an observer in the Cupertino Alliance since 10 September 2021 and is an observer in the Micronational Community of Australia since 6 October 2021. It is a member of the Cupertino Alliance since 13 October 2021 till 12 December 2021, on the occasion of Maha Asthami, with 7 votes for promotion, 4 votes for expellation and 3 votes to remain observership.
Etymology
The name "Indradhanush" was derived from the Hindi word of the same name meaning a rainbow. The name was proposed on 11 February 2020, by Dinesh Rajagopalan.
Indradhanush can though be written as the conjoined words of "Indra" and "Dhanush". Indra, referring to the ancient Vedic deity in Hinduism. He is the king of Svarga (Heaven) and the Devas (gods). He is associated with lightning, thunder, storms, rains, river flows and war.[7][8][9] Indra's mythology and powers are similar to other Indo-European deities such as Jupiter, Perun, Perkunas, Zalmoxis, Taranis, Zeus, and Thor, suggesting a common origin in Proto-Indo-European mythology.[9][10][11] and Dhanush meaning Bow in Hindi. So Indradhanush means Indra's bow.

History
The State of Indradhanush
The State of Indradhanush declared independence on 13 February 2021.
Rajagopalan I
Coronation
The coronation of Dinesh Rajagopalan happened on 13 February 2021. It was a solemn ceremony due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He decided to adopt his surname as his regnal name. The full style of him after his coronation is:-
"His Majesty Rajagopalan I, of the State of Indradhanush, Sovereign of Chandril City, Carreville and Gadinagar, Defender of the Constitution and all faiths, Sovereign of the Privy Council, Supreme Commander of the Army, Navy and Airforce of Indradhanush, Sovereign and Grand Master of Order of Dinesh I"
After Coronation
After the coronation, Rajagopalan I went to work. He immediately started to construct Indradhanush and its government. Under his reign, Hibernia was annexed. The diplomatic sphere was expanded. On one fine Sunday, the server of Indradhanush was raided. He couldn't do anything since his laptop was on charge at that time. He dealt with it the next day. He later said that this was the result of his karma and Newton's 3rd Law of Motion. He applied for the GUM for observership and the CA for membership.
Abdication
He abdicated on 24 February 2021, after ruling for just 11 days due to his failure of admitting Indradhanush into the GUM due to his past actions. He declared that fellow Privy Council, Aircraft,[e] be the next king.
Aircraft I
Succession
Aircraft, became the King of Indradhanush on the same day.
The Announcement
The announcement was the first and only declaration by His Majesty Aircraft, he announced,
Indradhanush is no longer a nation situated within Asia. It is now a nation with a global presence.
— His Majesty Aircraft I on the #announcements channel in Indradhanush, 25 February 2021
This was a major change from the isolationist domestic and foreign policy that the country was following.
Coup d'état by Rajagopalan
On 26 February 2021, Dinesh Rajagopalan did a coup d'état on HM Aircraft I and crowned himself King of Indradhanush.
Rajagopalan II
After the Coup'd'etat
Dinesh Rajagopalan was impressed with the announcement that Aircraft made. He was forced to agree and changed the foreign policy of Indradhanush.
Prosperous Era
This era was the prosperous or the golden era of Indradhanush. Under this, major reforms were done by Dinesh I such as the merger of Wisea into Indradhanush, annexation of Hibernia, creation of the orders, decorations, and medals of Indradhanush etc. He appointed Zabëlle Smith as Prime Minister. He also applied for the Micronational Assembly and proposed the MID Act.
Nowacki Crisis
Dinesh I, decided to take a break as he had exams within a few days. He decided he needed a regent for a temporary basis. So, in the night, he appointed Michal Nowacki, as King of Indradhanush by taking the following announcement:-
I declare His Excellency Nowacki as King of Indradhanush till further notice.
— His Majesty Dinesh I on the #announcements channel in Indradhanush
This ultimately backfired as Nowacki immediately resigned. Queensland blacklisted Dinesh I and sent the following:-
Announcements of HM's Government of Queensland
Blacklist of the State of Indradhanush and Dinesh Rajagopalan
The government has reported that the State of Indradhanush and Dinesh Rajagopalan has acted inappropriately in many ways. And it happened that Dinesh Rajagopalan led a foreigner to become the head of state of the State of Indradhanush who attempted to start a game of slandering a country with excellent diplomatic relations with Queensland, the "State of Vishwamitra". Queensland will not tolerate Dinesh Rajagopalan conduct. The Government of the Kingdom of Queensland therefore resolved to declare that the State of Indradhanush and Dinesh Rajagopalan is "blacklisted" from today onwards and will not have termination or cancellation of this notice.
Vishwamitra sent this lengthy statement.
We criticise the appointment of Nowacki as the King of Indradhanush by Dinesh Rajagopalan
We have been informed that Mr. Nowacki was not consulted before the appointment and also that he has abdicated minutes back.
Nowacki's appointment reminds us of how Rajagopalan is trying to manipulate Vishwamitrans to join his fraud nation and work against us.
It was considered as a diplomatic failure from Indradhanush, and specifically, Dinesh.
Dark Ages or the Regency Era
The Dark Ages or the Regency Era began right after the Nowacki Crisis. Dinesh Rajagopalan decided to propose an impeachment motion against himself in the Privy Council of Indradhanush. The vote went like this:-
Motion | Votes | Percentage |
---|---|---|
Aye | 1
Members:-
|
33.33% |
No | 0 | 0% |
Abstain | 2
Members are:-
|
66.67% |
Total | 3 | 100% |
It was eventually decided to appoint John Lakes as the next king. The first thing he did was dissolve the nation.[12] The reason he gave was that he was more involved in his own nation, the Republic of Floriland.
The Kingdom of Indradhanush
Phoenix Era
On 30 July 2021, Dinesh Rajagopalan decided to revive the country. He finished his coronation ceremony in the country of NoboBangla. He then passed a royal decree[1] which appointed Nafiz Morshalin, replacing Zabëlle Smith as the Prime Minister of Indradhanush. He resigned after 4 days becoming the shortest-term serving PM. He suggested that his brother serve as Prime Minister. Dinesh Rajagopalan agreed and hence, Nabin Mutakin became the Prime Minister of Indradhanush.
His Majesty Dinesh I then passed a royal decree on 11 August 2021,[13] highlighting the goals of the nation. He then passed a huge royal decree on 16 August 2021,[14] containing 20 points. It is the longest royal decree ever passed in Indradhanush. On 7 September 2021, Dinesh Rajagopalan passed a royal decree introducing the concept of ambassadors to the country.[15] Indradhanush became an observer in the Cupertino Alliance on 10 September 2021, with 14 supports, 3 opposes and 2 abstentions. On 11 September 2021, in a surprise announcement, His Majesty Dinesh Rajagopalan changed the Prime Minister to James Roberts. On 16 September 2021, he completed 200 days of his reign as Monarch of Indradhanush.
Swivelter ministry was announced by Dinesh Rajagopalan on 23 September 2021.[16] It is the largest cabinet formed in Indradhanush and consisted of 6 cabinet ministers. On 25 September 2021, the country inaugurated the current flag adopted. It is made by Ștefan Marius Snagoveanu and combined the flag of Lowenia and the previous flag. The country is currently on vote for promoting its status in the Cupertino Alliance from observer to member. He also appointed him as member of the Privy Council.[17]
Indradhanush then went on a diplomatic spree by signing diplomatic treaties with 3 micronations in 3 days. It signed a treaty with Winterspell on 5 October,[18] Salanda on 6 October 2021[19] and Arsalania on 7 October 2021.[20] Each of the treaties were unique. Winterspell is the first American nation to recognize Indradhanush. It was also their first diplomatic interaction. On 7 October 2021, His Majesty Dinesh I of Indradhanush, His Majesty Petrus I of Winterspell and the Prime Minister of Winterspell had a informal summit. Salanda is the first British nation to recognize the nation. Arsalania is the first Pakistani and ASAM micronation to recognize Indradhanush. The relations with all the nations currently are amicable.
It eventually became a member of the Cupertino Alliance on 13 October 2021, on the occasion of Maha Asthami, with 7 votes for promotion, 4 votes for expellation and 3 votes to remain observership. On the same day, Hibernia was reorganized as the merger of Carreville and Gadinagar.
Rory Era
The Rory Era or the Roravian Era started from 28 October 2021 till 18 November 2021, when Dinesh I, decided to take a break as he had mid-terms within a few days. Wanting to prevent another crisis, he personally contacted Rory, whether he could serve as regent. He accepted the position. Rory previously served as the Monarch of Indradhanush on 23 and 24 September 2021 during the Phoenix Era on the wish of Dinesh. He issued 5 royal decrees on 23 September and 24 September, completely altering Indradhanush.
He created the Order of the Royal Indian Star,[21] formally granted Dinesh I the Duke of Chandril City,[22][g] dissolved Parliament,[23] which it still is. He also removed the Privy Council President[24] and dissolved the role of the Prime Minister.[25]
Eventually Dinesh came and revoked the decrees that removed the Privy Council President and the Prime Minister.[24][25] His Majesty Dinesh Rajagopalan then passed royal decrees on special occasions like Durga Pujo, Diwali or Deepawali.[h][26]
As Dinesh didn't want to prevent history repeating itself (the Nowacki Crisis), he asked Rory whether he could be Sovereign in his absence. He agreed and so he made the announcement.
Rory will serve as regent till November 18.
— His Majesty Dinesh I on the #announcements channel in Indradhanush
Rory, unlike last time, published 1 royal decree. In this, he created the Officer of the State.[27] The title will be used by the deputy in charge of the nation. He/she will be styled ‘His Excellency the Officer of the State. He declared Dinesh Rajagopalan as the Officer of the State. Eventually, Dinesh Rajagopalan returned and assumed office as Monarch of Indradhanush on 19 November 2021.

On 12 December 2021, Dinesh Rajagopalan declared his mother as the Queen and announced that according to her instructions, Indradhanush will be terminating all diplomatic relations with foreign nations. Shortly after, the discord server used as the online representation of the Kingdom was seized by Nafiz Morshalin who did a coup d'état of the Kingdom under the name of the Republic of Lowenia which is believed to be a revived version of the original Republic of Lowenia, albeit with the territories per. King Rajagopalan fled after the coup d'état.
Such events were preceded by the termination of recognition by the State of Vishwamitra after the Kingdom of Indradhanush failed to prove itself as a proper physical nation. It was also because of some issues raised by Varuna Sriraya on the governance, seriousness and professionalism of the nation. The People's Republic of Arsalania was reportedly considering terminating relations as well until the Kingdom unilaterally terminated relations with all nations on it's own.
On 14 December 2021, Dinesh Rajagopalan sent a statement that was compared to Daniel Hamilton's message to Australissians.
Personal Announcement of Dinesh Rajagopalan to all Indradhanushians and the MicroWiki Community in general
BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF INDRADHANUSH,
Due to some major incidents and changes in my personal life, I will be taking a permanent hiatus from the Discord micronational community (Excluding MicroWiki). However, Indradhanush will remain in existence under the Queen’s rule till I am 18.This process will be weird, and it will sadden many, however it was inevitable for Indradhanush. Indradhanush will return to being a locally governed and micronationally isolated nation. The Indradhanushian Discord server will cease to be used for the government, and I will also cease to use it. The Privy Council will be dissolved. I thank all Privy Councillors, former and current, for the beautiful and dedicated tenure to the nation.
Everyone will raise their hands to say that what I am doing is wrong. To you, I would clarify for the last time for you to see the reason that I have no other choice. I wish to rule Indradhanush, but I cannot do so if I have to maintain and continue my education. Those who have been in the Privy Council know how much I score in my exams. So please, if I have to continue that pattern, I have to make this decision. Do not make this more difficult than it is. I am incredibly sorry for the inconveniences that have and will be caused.
From 15 December 2021, the Kingdom of Indradhanush shall return to being a locally governed and micronationally isolated nation. I wish that when I will be 18, then I will be able to come back to lead on Discord once again and rule like a King.
With best regards,
Dinesh Rajagopalan
Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Indradhanush
On 24 December 2021, the Queen changed her regnal name from Raani I to Monroe I[i] and asked her coronation be held on New Year (1 January 2022). It went ahead and as such the coronation of Queen Monroe I happened. The coronation honours were also released.[28]

Notes

- ↑ In reference to its translation of the name and difficulty in pronouncing it in English.
- ↑ The Kingdom of Indradhanush is considered a de facto part of the Republic of India and United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

- ↑ Later the title changed to His Illustrious and Royal Majesty after completing a year of his reign.
- ↑ The title of the Duke of Chandril City was considered a de facto role of the Sovereign of Indradhanush.
- ↑ As said in South India.
- ↑ It was later found out that Dinesh Rajagopalan gave his mother the regnal name of "Raani I", without her permission. She didn't like the name as Raani means Queen in both Hindi and Bengali. As such, it literally meant her name was Queen Queen the First of Indradhanush.. So, as such, Dinesh proposed her name be "Kajol I" after the actress Kajol. She rejected this and as such opted for Monroe I, after Marilyn Monroe, the famous American actress.
