Volkore

The Empire of Volkore is a city-state founded by the now-deceased Thinker. Known for it's marketplace and diplomacy, it's lead by Emperor Athos, and within the sphere of Bardonia
== Infancy ==
The State was founded by Thinker with his advisors TheBurger3, ___Athos___, and Russischebanana, as a member state of the Ryzan Confederacy. While originally small and very rich, they purchased a large chunk of Erebor right before the 1st Ryzan Crisis, which ultimately found themselves with the most power a single state held. 
== Time in the Ryzan Commonwealth ==
After the 1st Ryzani Crisis, CanadianToss formed the Second Ryzan Empire, also known as the Commonwealth of Ryzani Crowns, which elected TheBurger3 as the Head Representative. Soon, a Nebskii named Nebsk founded the State of Nebskoslavia which encompassed thousands of chunks of Volkorean territory, amongst other Commonwealth nations. The Lord Chamberlain had ruled that the land was rightfully Volkorean, but also ruled that Nebskoslavia should be allowed to keep the Nebskogrod Peninsula for as long as they are a member of the Commonwealth. Nebskoslavia ignored the rulings, which resulted in the Head Representative demanding that Nebskoslavia rescind their claims of Volkorean territory, or face becoming a Dependency of Volkore under the Volkore Kingdoms Act. As soon as the demands were sent, Nebskoslavia declared independence from the Commonwealth along with Remtal, Nova Balreska, and Vologda, creating the 2nd Ryzani Crisis, which Volkore yet again won.
== Volkore Independence ==
Volkore had been unofficially independent for a couple weeks but decided to finally declare independence afterthe events of the 2nd Ryzani Crisis. It was also sparked from Ryzan's reaction to Thinkers disappearance and their hospitality during the 2nd Ryzan Crisis. The Ryzan independent states of Remtal, Nova Balreska, Volodga and Ryzan came together and formed the Freeholds of Westreach, unofficially creating the Third Ryzan Empire. Volkore and the newly-formed Freeholds were on good terms.
