Vadam

The State of Vadam is a State or Nation in Yermo, Sanghelios. It was named after its founder, the ancestor of all citizens of Vadam. The Vadamese people all share the name Vadam, which is customary for Sangheili naming. It is probably similar in size to the State of Israel because states are rather small. It's leader is called a Kaidon, which is the very much like a presient or prime minister. The current Kaidon is Thel 'Vadam who served in the Covenant Special Operations and later the Covenant Separatists. The Kaidon in Vadam is probably not just called The Kaidon, he is probably refered to as something more elegant like Thel 'Vadam Kaidon of Vadam as a leader name. Vadam is mostly a desert country like most of Sanghelios.

Origin

The state of Vadam was named after its founder who was said to have been imprisoned by his enemies. He was starved in the prison and yet refused to kill himself. He eventually became so thin from hunger that he was able to slip his body through the bars of his window. Even in his weak state he managed to scale the cliffs of Vadam keep, and swim down the river that surrounded the keep and also provided a good source of energy. He had to walk many days and eat vermin and scraps to keep himself alive.

He soon came across the vast desert that was in the interior of the Sangheili land. He started rebuilding his strength and toughness in the years to come, and managed to make allies with other wanderers. His new found allies had statuses that were lower than Vadam's but they were willing to fight under Vadam's leadership. Now that he had warriors under his command he returned to Vadam keep. He successfully defeated those who had imprisoned and laughed at him.
