Brydannia

Brydannia (Brydain for short) is the rebellious state formed by the Silver Mutineers in the Cold North. Brydannia is a monarchy ruled by a Regent, as the rulers of Brydannia have not yet determined their monarch. The Kingdom of Workhold, the monarchy from which Brydannia seceded, does not recognize Brydannia and so far only the Kingdom of Franzland, the rival realm of Alarass, recognizes Brydannia as a sovereign monarchy. However, in a broader sense Brydannia is yet to achieve legitimacy, as the title; King of Brydain means only the ruler of the Cold North, an area under the control of the Glissars. The capital of Brydannia is ironically the city of Iorisa, the city named after their main enemy King Jiri.
== Name ==
The name Brydannia comes from old Waldisian words Bry - meaning Truth or Justice or Righteous and in some translations Free, and dain - meaning Realm or Empire. The official name however is; The Kingdom of Brydannia. For short it is referred to as Brydain.
== History ==
Many people who lived under the reign of King Jiri had been discontent with the King's rule. Many attempts were made to usurp the king, however none succeeded. In the end members of the Royal Army formed the Officer Plot which sought to either usurp the King or begin a rebellion. This group was led by Grisweld Mittelhoss; a former officer of the Borian Army, and Henrivier Nizenkampf; the great-granddaughter of King Henrinion.
During the Fortudatum Crusade, accidents and circumstances led Henrivier to launch the Silver Revolution prematurely, whilst Grisweld was not present as Grisweld was sent to the Oblikrom Expedition. The revolution began with the Massacre of Eientei, when the Silver Mutineers slew all men loyal to King Jiri. It became a black stain in the formation of Brydannia. As the Royal Army retreated from the Cold North to consolidate, the Silver mutineers conquered all Workhold lands north of the Contest Mountains. At first the population resisted, but in the end the Silver mutineers managed to make the people content and join them in the revolution.
Brydannia was established shortly after by Henrivier, a northern Adelian noble Malko Zaver, and Waldisian noble Sil de Graf. They formed a royal court and established primary court positions. Graf was chosen as the regent and Malko as the Seneschal. Henrivier became the High Marshal and Hans Armitage, a former KOMS captain, received the position of Lord-Constable. 
The Court was set, however no resolution was made as to who was to be the New King. Many wanted Lloyd Niskain to be the king, since Lloyd was the son of Reinhard Niskain who in turn was the son of Henrinion I the Second King of Workhold. This sentiment was shared by many nobles including Graf and Malko. Henrivier argued against this, as many of the military officers sought to place Grisweld Mittelhoss to the throne as the new king, arguing that when Grisweld eventually joined the revolution, the people would support Grisweld's coronation more than Lloyd's.
