| | |
| [[File:Freejaffanation.jpg|thumb]]A nation of independent [[Jaffa]] who have come together following the downfall of the [[Goa'uld]]. Born from the underground [[Jaffa Resistance]] movement, their base of operations is [[Dakara]], a planet deep inside the territory of the former System Lord, [[Baal]], though they plan to expand outward into the galaxy.
| |
| In its first, formative months the young nation included at least two rival factions vying for power, one led by [[Gerak]], a stern Jaffa warrior who has manipulated the High Council into giving him power. His political opponents included [[Teal'c]] and [[Bra'tac]], who believe the Free Jaffa Nation should be democratic in governance, rather than ruled by a High Council where votes are appropriated to representatives based on military assets. Gerak was soon convinced by an [[Ori]] [[Prior]] to lead his people on the path of Origin, the deadly religion that enforces conversion with the threat of annihilation.
| |
| | |
| After Gerak betrayed the Ori and was killed, the High Council voted to hold democratic elections and make the Free Jaffa Nation a democracy. The arrogant and hard-headed [[Se'tak]] was appointed leader, and even his use of the [[Ancient super-weapon]] on Dakara could not stop the Ori when they attacked the planet and annihilated the weapon, leaving Dakara in ruins and the Jaffa Nation once again in a precarious position, without a formal government.
