First Kingdom of Varsais

The First Kingdom of Varsais was a state that existed in the south of Kordowyn until 241 KOR, when it's government was executed by a joint coalition of factions in the War of 241. It is succeeded by the Duchy of Maereynde.
Varsais was declared a kingdom 32BKOR, and was among the first countries invaded in the Kordynian Conquests, eventually allowing themselves to be bought after a major military defeat in 183KOR. Over the next few decades, Varsais abused loopholes in the Treaty of Subjugation and built a minor empire of vassals, but by late 240, one such vassal, the Kingdom of Garman had enough and seeked secession. While technically legal, the Kingdom suddenly accused Garman of violating law, resulting in the Garmanese Secession Crisis, which through the actions of Phillipe IX resulted in the War of 241.
After declaring independence from the Empire, Kordowyn intervened in the war and by mid 241, the capital was under siege. Templari'i troops sacked the city unexpectedly in July, and the Kordynians executed most of the government, except Queen Vivienne II, who the allies viewed as a victim of her husband's cruelty. After the war ended, Varsais was dismantled and replaced by three duchies, an allied occupation zone, and jointly held territory with the three duchies and the Allies.
