The Republic Beneath the Black Banner (Canceled)

(This is my 3rd fanfiction and 2nd crossover story, based on the The Breadwinner (2017) x Citampi Stories x Orwellian x Syrian reality x Checkered Ninja - depicting Sari backstories)

What if Indonesia fell into the grasp of a Salafi-Jihadist regime?

In 2025, the Republic of Indonesia-once the world's largest Muslim democracy-collapses not by foreign invasion, but from within. A Salafi-Jihadist paramilitary factions led by the elusive Rizki Al-Ghifari topples President Rahmat, a democratic-elected Russo-Sinophile leader. His ouster marks the dawn of the Islamic State of Indonistan, founded under black banners and enforced through scripture, fear, and fire.

With support from HTI, FPI, Darul Islam remnants, and ideological fuel from global jihadist networks, the regime launches a nationwide purge. Mosques become ministries, schools become madrasa, music is outlawed, and women vanish behind veils.

Sari, a nine-year-old girl from East Java, watches her world collapse. Her father, a moderate Islamic scholar, disappears. Her mother is forced into hiding. Schools are shut, books are burned, and girls are forbidden to speak. To survive, Sari ventures through jungles, checkpoints, Wahhabi patrols, and shattered cities-becoming her family's only hope and a defiant symbol of life under tyranny.

Inspired by The Breadwinner and Syria under HTS rule, and written in honor of Syrian minorities who continue to suffer under extremist oppression, this fanfic paints a chilling portrait of what might happen if Pruralist Democratic Indonesia fall into abyss of the religious theocratic regime.

Contains themes of war, child trauma, religious extremism, totalitarianism, and political collapse.

To the girls who weren't allowed to speak-this is your voice.
To the republic that forgot its people-this is your reckoning.
