Windrop

Windrop is a theocratic state in Sparwood. Founded in spring of 2021, it was an independent nation based around the sharing of food as it's key philosophy. The Acolytes of Hostina is the name for the religion composed of a pantheon of thirteen gods, each devoted to a certain food group (with exceptions). While Windrop does not have an extensive history, it has a contentious past in a region known for the rise and fall of empires. 
== Location ==
Windrop is made up of a large peninsula & several islands dotting off of it in Western Magisterium. It once had a large border with Litowen, a former city-state in the region. Windrop's peninsula is accessible through the Astyllean Sea.
== Politics ==
Since its founding, Windrop has been fraught with conflict. Its first conflict was with a settlement called Litowen, a small city-state of about 20, sitting south of the capital. After a cease-fire was declared, Litowen and Windrop were united in a commonwealth, which would later lead to some strife.
Shortly after, the Battle of Riverwall began. Windrop citizens had gotten into conflict with members of the House of Ellas, an ally of Litowen. Ties degraded between the two city-states until full scale war broke out. On May 23rd, 2021, Windrop called it's allies together to defeat Litowen in a battle. The City-State was absorbed into Windrop, & renamed Vilnea.
Over the next two months, Windrop began collecting Money & Followers. With it's newfound power came paranoia however, as Windrop was used to near constant onslaught. Following a perceived threat by The Magisterium on it's borders, Windrop lashed out with a Border Skirmish. Underestimating the response though, the Capital of Riverwall was quickly invaded & raided. In order to make sure his people could keep their holy land, Banana willingly signed a deal with The Magisterium on July 17, 2021, and Windrop was converted into a Province of the nation.
