The Second Kingdom

The Second Kingdom is the name given to the united Urudiki kingdom of the Erĭgĭ city-states.
For only the second time in recorded Erĭgĭ history, the kingdom encompassed all the city-states into one political entity - reliving the fabled exploits of Ishĭ ĭnû-ur, a fabled hero and demi-god in Erĭgĭ culture.
During its existence, the Kingdom was ruled over by two monarchs from the city-state of Urudik, ĭnazu and his heir, adrahasis. During the reign of the latter, the "codex of adrahasis" was first created, providing a universal set of laws and punishments for all the Erĭgĭ to follow. A key principle behind many of the punishments were punitive in nature, with mutilation the prescribed penalty for even repeated minor crimes. A copy of the Codex can usually be found in many of the city-states.
The high kingdom of Urudik would prove short-lived however, and would come to an end in the aftermath of the Erigi-Varshan wars and the Ilkhurist Uprising.
