== History (pre-Miracaelian Province) ==
=== Formation and the Astherian Collapse ===
Fort Altisgrad was left completely alone in the wilderness after the Astherian Collapse so Trystan Chesterfield who had helped found the city, moved from Soleilis to Fort Altisgrad and with the help of the city's other founder, Zardy began to work on establishing Fort Altisgrad as the nation of United Altis Lis. The nation they created was in stark contrast to their neighbors, a constitutional monarchy, but this would not ultimately effect them.
=== The Great Starvation ===
==== The Cause ====
The Great starvation began when the could no longer feed its citizens after it couldn't afford the food it was constantly importing and the food reserves ran dry. Due to the rocky nature of the soil in the area it could never farm crops on a large scale. The lack of food caused hundreds of people to die and many more to immigrate away from the nation. 
==== The Response ====
In response to all of the death Zardy ordered that citizens go to the abandoned city of Soleilis and restore its farms so that they had a steady source of food. Trystan Chesterfield was tasked with overseeing mining for resources to export and composting waste into useable soil. 
==== The Solution ====
But a local animal species would bring them salvation they so desperately needed. That animal was the chicken. Chickens were small and reproduced fast so if you could maintain a small population of them you could feed a country. These chickens would help Altis Lis expand past its walls and have it become a larger city state. As the Great Starvation came to a close the efforts of mining, composting, and farming dwindled. 
==== The Effects ====
Now the nation had began exporting chicken, metals, and gems as it began to make it's own money. Due to the impact that the chicken had on the economy and the people of Altis Lis chickens were made the national animal. In modern Altis Lis chicken and fine jewelry are a staple of the culture and a primary export.
=== The End of a Kingdom ===
On the 31st of May at 7:48 AM EST the Invictor of Miracaelia, Sythodeus gave Zardy a opportunity to become a province within the neighboring nation of Miracaelia. As the country was a constitutional monarchy they held a vote on whether or not to join. The result of the first vote was strongly against joining Miracaelia but after the Invictor began to state how they could increase stability and trade through Miracaelia while still having control of an area a second vote was held. This vote was divided fairly evenly but ultimately they decided to join Miracaelia.
== History (Miracaelian Province) ==
=== The High Expectations of a Province ===
As the citizens of Altis Lis got intigrated into this new situation the scilence from the Miracaelian government incresed leading to many of the citizens to feel disconected from the promises that were made by the government. The lingering feeling of betrayal set in on the citizens and the government as time passed and very little changes had been made other than that they had now given up a lot of their freedoms.
=== The Foundation of Bamboches ===
Things would begin to change as the town of Fort Altisgrad expanded past its original borders and the invictor granted them the rights to make a fishing village right outside Miracalis that would become to be known as Bamboches.
=== Cultural Divides ===
On July 11th 2021 Altis Lis atempted to declare indepence from Miracaelia staing cultural differences as the primary reason. The invictor denied every proposed land claim made by the Altis Lis's government so Altis Lis's government stalled until Trystan Chesterfield got angry and stated they would be independent regardless of what the invictor thought. The tenstions skyrocked as Miracaelia refused to recognize them and for a second western Sylvantia was on the verge of war. Zardy eventually calmed Trystan down and they decied to re-integrate into Miracaelia.
=== The Two Sides of a War ===
On July 14th 2021 Miracaelia declared war on Reyllea starting the Second Reyllean War. The first battle would occur with no issue from Altis Lis but by the second battle many of Altis Lis's citizen had been tired of the wars Miracaelia was dragging them through such as the First Reyllean War and the War of the Horses/the Dwarven War. The citizens decied that it was time for another shot at independence so many of them defected to the Reyllean side as mercenaries because the king of Reyllea would get them their independence if they fought for them. This did not make the Miracaelian government happy so after Miracaelia won the war massive fines were issued to Altis Lis causing the province to go nearly broke but this was not a major issue as the mines had no real issue producing scince the Great Starvation and now with Bamoches producing fish.
== History (Post Miracaelia) ==
=== The Great Central War ===
On September 9th 2021 a coalition comprised of Dragonium, Thalsio, Altis Lis, Reyllea, and Mycopadre that had been forming from the shadows delcared war on Miracaelia. Roughly an hour after war was declared Altis Lis declared independence and a push through the Snowthorn Mountains began on the northern front. After a few days of gruelingly pushing through the cold mountains the coalition arrived at the mountainous town of Fort Altisgrad where Miracaelian scouts detected their presense and called for the army. In the following morning as the coalition was awaking the Miracaelian army arrived in the woods just outside of Fort Altisgrad so as the coalition army began to mobilize the battle of Fort Altisgrad began. The fighting was rough and chaotic as men fell from the walls and were pelted with arrows. But as the dust settled the colaliton's army went back into formation and chased the remaining Miracaelians out of Fort Altisgrad. Altis Lis offically had foreign enforcement of the area and they would recieve recognition when Miracaelia sued for peace.
