Solge

Solge, officially known as the Empire of Solge, is an intercontinental empire, spanning most of the world of Abexilas. Formed as a merger between Halge and Soliana, at the point of writing this it can be considered the most powerful empire on Abexilas and perhaps one of the most powerful empires in the history of Stoneworks. Solge is an Absolute Triumvirate, consisting of three Emperors, who are advised by a Privy Council. Due to the fact that it's an equal merger between Soliana and Halge it has two capitals, Soliana in Soliana and Leiden in Hälge respectively. Its official religion is Solonism, which originates from Soliana.

=== Pre-Solgean History of Soliana on Abexilas ===
The history of Soliana on Abexilas dates back to the very start of the world, during the arrival of the Comets. Prior to arriving on Abexilas, Soliana had been a province of Anglunia, a nation on Eldham - although Soliana did have a history of seperation from Anglunia. Due to the various power struggles that occurred between the Solianen & Idraenyan-supported GMP and the Roleplayer & Lutumite-supported MCP, as well as Solianas successful efforts to expand its population by way of mass recruitment, Soliana was perhaps by the end of Eldham the strongest of all of the Anglunian provinces. This gave Soliana good ground to capitalize on when it wanted to go its separate way from Anglunia after the end of Eldham.
==== Premigration Events & Founding ====
Prior to the end of Eldham, Soliana had gone through a tough patch (i.e a series of RP events). Discontent had been brewing due to the emergence of a revolutionary figure called Jugrar (real username Moravos), who lead an organization called the "Sons of Jugrad", whom sought to overthrow the government and replace it with a new, much more 'pious' government, as Jugrar & his supporters perceived the current government at the time to have gone astray of Solon and that if nothing was done in time, the world would end like Jagdas & Paxia did. This did eventually culminate in the overthrowal of the Solianen ruling class in the Great Decimation, which destroyed most of the Solianen nobility except for the Solonec family. Afterwards, the Comet Migration began and Jugrar led the Solianens to the new world, gaining him the moniker "the Voyager". (All of this apart of a series of RP events orchestrated by Moravos). 
Once Soliana had landed in the new world, Jugrar (Moravos) assembled a new council of prominent Solianens, succeeding the old one, and they began deliberating on where to establish the newest iteration of Soliana. Many suggestions were made but at the end of the day, the current location, located on what the Solianens call "Soliana Peninsula", won out, being located in Halinn, on the Zarilyian subcontinent. According to some sources this is because this is where one of the Solianen settlers first found a field of sunflowers, this having also been the way Rai Solonec (aka Raiempire) had founded the original Soliana.
==== Beginnings ====
Once after Soliana on Abexilas had finally started, plans started being formulated concerning the future. The Solianens established very early on that they wanted to build a city on the location that they had chosen and soon enough proposals were being formulated on how it should look like, with the Solianens settling on Byzantine-style architecture. Soon thereafter, schematics started being made - all of this via the efforts of the user Laurry, a longtime member & OG of Soliana. It was also established that Soliana should become a city-state & this desire would guide Solianen foreign policy for the next 5-6 months. Everything was not sunshine & rainbows, however. A user, named Arth, had after the failed coup of Soliana during Eldham (this was in fact a staged event that Moravos had set up for fun) assembled all of the failed conspirators and then invited them to his own nation. This took away a large portion of Solianas active population at the time, hindering Soliana at the start of the server. In order to rectify this issue, Soliana would attempt to recruit more people, however this largely failed as most people with the exception of Jugrar (Moravos) were not entirely interested in recruitment. 
==== Pre-Pre-Scaligan Period ====
During the next 5-6 months, Soliana would expand in various ways. For instance the city of Soliana would expand with its buildings, having already settled on a sort of Byzantine-style building. During this time the first Solonist temple on Abexilas was built as well as the buildings containing the so-called "Forum of Soliana", consisting of, among other things, Solianas armory. During this period Soliana would also begin expanding outwards towards the nearby nations. with Soliana vassalizing Steelwater. However, at the same time, Soliana would also stagnate in terms of population due to the aforementioned issues with lack of recruitment drive as well as Arths stealing of citizens. This period also saw, at the end of it, a large portion of the Solianen council go inactive, causing even more stagnation in regards of population & activity. This was mostly attributed to the fact that most people had school & work and thus had to focus on that more then Stoneworks. Moravos, however, promised that all of this would be rectified during the summer, wherein he would begin mass-recruiting again. In general, things were doing well on some fronts but bad on other fronts, but the future was bright and the Solianens had something to look forward to.
==== Pre-Scaligan Period ====
Issues persisted and sooner or later, summer came. At the beginning of summer, a High Council member & the Leader of Soliana both decided (those being Alexisthebest1 & Moravos) to take at least a week long hiatus and thereafter become active again. However, although Alexisthebest1 came back from his hiatus, Moravos ended up becoming inactive and did not come back until 2 months later. In that time span, the leadership got reshuffled and Alex ended up becoming leader, with High Council now having a much more important role now that Moravos' one-man rule had ended. During the same time period, Scaliga had begun rising as the pre-eminent power on the continent, with its Halinn League compromising most of the continent.
