Jingo, a comedic novel by Terry Pratchett, is part of the Discworld series. In it, a volcanic eruption has created a new island exactly halfway between the cities of Ankh-Morpork and Al-Khali. Because of its strategic value, both cities begin preparations for war. During this time, Sam Vimes investigates the attempted assassination of an Al-Khali prince, which he believes was caused by persons hoping to provoke open bloodshed. Jingo is a satire of war and nationalism, and its plot was inspired by the real-life conflict over Ferdinandea.
