The micronation, officially referred to as the State of Yidmahh but more commonly known as Yidmahh, is situated in Central Europe. It came into existence during the 8 Weeks Preparations for the Last Day of the Year holiday within a Jewish sub-branch.
Etymology
The name "Yidmahh" is composed of two parts: "Yid," which signifies Jew or Jewish, and "Mahh," meaning Slav or Slavic. This naming convention was chosen as Yidmahh is located in Slovakia, a Slavic country, while also being a Jewish State akin to the State of Israel.
History
The State of Yidmahh was unofficially established on December 27th, 2023, and formally established on the 28th, coinciding with the planned dissolution of the Shtetl Force and its integration into the Yidmahh Defence Force. This significant event can be also aligned with a holiday known as the Three Day Fast, marking the end of the year.
The begining
It was unofficially established following the SDF's takeover of control over Hátárváros Oblast, signaling the conclusion of the Shtetl Insurgency and the de facto establishment of the State of Yidmahh, occurring four days before the end of the year. This also signifies that Yidmahh has reinitiated negotiations with the State of Lasetia, aiming to secure an alliance or potentially become an Aligned State of Lasetia. The preference leans towards an independent or semi-independent status within the Micronational Community.

As previously mentioned, the Ministry of Justice in Yidmahh, serving as a legislative branch, operates independently from other legislative branches and government authorities to prevent external interference in its internal politics and hierarchy. The court system follows a three-step process: Step 1 involves processing the case and assigning a date, Step 2 consists of one or more court sessions, and Step 3 concludes the proceedings. This system aims for efficiency to avoid unnecessary delays in the legal process.
