(You are welcome to adopt our faiths into your nation's own lore, if one were to lack the idea for religion.)
== History ==
=== Rathnir ===
The birth of Corry occurred on December 16, 2023, as a squatter near the nation of Vasterien in the world of Rathnir. It was still in its infancy a few weeks before the end of Rathnir.
The nation was founded, under the reign of King SerrealPlayer, with his regent, CorryPlayz (Hence the origin of Corry identity). Both Surreal and Corry had begun building the nation and adopt people from all over the world, which would later be one of the nation’s greatest strengths when recruiting members, through the embrace of multi-culturalism towards all ethnicity and culture.
The nation of Corry witnesses a tragic fate from ongoing raids orchestrated by the Nation of Vasterien, who wanted to reclaim their land from squatters. The distinction of both factions' equipment made it clear, that it is nearly impossible for the Corrians as they were outclassed to retaliate against the Vasteriens.
==== Arrival of Tomy and Rise of Corry ====
On December 19, 2023, an important name for Corry joined the nation for the first time ever, to be recruited name TomyZero. Beginning as a citizen, he went directly to work in the mines of the nation after meeting Serreal. 
The day after Tomy’s arrival to Corry, Serreal has unexpectedly been banned from the server over a limited time, which ultimately resulted in CorryPlayz ascension to the throne, as the next king of Corry until his return. Unfortunately, Serreal did not have an heir nor heiress who could inherit the throne as the next in line, such Corry would claim the domain by being crowned King.
When he first ascended into the throne, as king, CorryPlayz made the decision to relocate the nation to a more peaceful place, away from the Vasteriens transgression, in hopes that he, and the people of his nation could live in harmony without trouble, a hope that would be gradually extinguish over time.
After numerous days laboring in the mines, Tomy would arrive at the capital, where everyone was about to move, storing a large sum of wealth in minerals.
CorryPlayz scouted places to move for a long time, until he made the decision, that the nation will be built on an island, in the middle of the vast deep ocean.
After the tragedy from the last raids from the cruel Vasteriens, the Corrians has moved to the west ocean, which was “property” of the United Crowns of Syltor (UCS). The nation on the first day, had tranquility after moving in with all the stuff they gathered for days from their old home, and CorryPlayz would name the capital, “New Corry."
However, the second day after their arrival to the island, soldiers from Syltor spotted the residents of Corry in their territory and didn’t hesitate to inform the high command of their nation about the squatters. The UCS has planned a raid later at night against the Corrian's whom wanted a home to call their own.
After receiving the aggression of 2 well-geared soldiers from UCS, the nation of Corry began to prepare for a raid, gathering as many men as they could muster, and gearing up whatever they could, as soon as possible. TomyZero was the man to take the lead in this operation, and he did not hesitate to use what is left of his resources from hours in the mines to arm the nation for battle. Even though the gear was the adequate at best, compared to the superior equipment the Syltor had, it was useful enough to stand their ground during the raid.
==== Attack on Corry - Bardonian Subjugation ====
As the night falls, and soldiers from UCS came to descend at New Corry for the invasion. The battle would be an arduous and full of strife, regardless of how the Corrians who outnumber the UCS in manpower, the difference in gear made it clear that it is still in their place that the U.C.S has the advantage. However, the Corrians managed to claim the heads of the UCS soldiers, would eventually retreat back to their homeland after making clear their intentions to war against the nation, that they would not give up the livelihood, unyielding, unwavering, and undeterred reflecting the people of New Corry stands loud and proud against all-odds. The defeat of the well-geared Syltorians would’ve seemed like an impossible task for most squatter nations who worked for scraps as their only resource, yet Corry become predators, and the Syltorians has become prey, and the word spread like a raging fire over all of Rathnir to bear witness.
After achieving the survival of the nation, the residents of Corry began to develop the island and build walls all around it for defense, making it fit for a nation that is ready for combat. TomyZero would be trusted with the prestige and valor to earn the rank of Minister of Defense. A position that would encourage him to get work hard with determination and to obtain the proper gear for the soldiers of Corry for the next conflict that is yet-to-come.
Over the course of the weeks, Bardonia, known to be one of the biggest nations in the history of Rathnir, who were conveniently rivals against the U.C.S, seized the opportunity to vassalize the nation of Corry, as a strategic move, with the ulterior motive to expand the Bardonian Bloc as a perversive sphere of influence across Rathnir with the Syltorians. With how convenient Bardonia came to Corry's aid as Syltorian's share the same region as the Bardonian's, which only inevitably resulted in conflict in the mainland, as one would desire to reign supreme for the entirety of the Syltor continent. The Syltorians name as a culture and ethnicity will undeniably instigate a conflict with its neighbors as if they represent all of Syltor. This is to further the Bardonian hegemony over the Sylor continent under the guise as peacekeepers, since Corry has shown to be a nation that was shown to be promising, and that they would be able to participate alongside there masters in the war.
Continuous raids at the beginning, where primarily mercenaries have occurred in New Corry before and during the declaration of war by the UCS. The first ones being a clear victory by the invaders, but as more time passed, the tools and equipment of the Corrian military has beginning to improve thanks to the tutelage of Minister of Defense, TomyZero, and the Corrians are able to stand their ground, and win against countless raids.
==== Raid Event Defined Corry ====
On January 6, 2024, the admins of Stonework's prepared a special broadcast for the entire world, organizing a raid against Corry, to see how they would do against larger numbers of soldiers from all over the world, who wanted to test the might of the Corrian people. However, upon this call, there began the support of foreign soldiers who supported the buddling squatter nation and intervene in Corry against the opposition in what would be their biggest raid yet.
These soldiers would be prominent figures who would lead the Corrians as the most well-rounded members, them being:
-CorryPlayz, the king.
-Sargent1010, the Regent of Corry.
-IcyObserver, the Commanding Officer
-TomyZero, the Minister of Defense.
-Aspiry, Corry’s wealthiest and most skilled marksmen.
The invasion commence afternoon, Aspiry took reconnaissance on top of the walls coast of Corry, he immediately spotted the Syltorian coalition. Aspiry immediately alerted the soldiers to engage with the impeding forces, and Tomy was the first Corrian to be the first responder to the call. The opposition has docked to the island in boats and trying to breach the capital of New Corry, climbing the walls and avoiding the onslaught the Corrians would unleash. Aspiry, showcased being a skilled with a bow, was able to hit every single one of the soldiers with his arrows without missing, as many begin to pour in with their troops with their group from the ocean, it was a difficult task to stand their ground until the reinforcements for Corry came. That’s when Tomy made a vital move for his strategy that would cement his reputation.
Stocking up on health potions and drinking potions that improved his strength and speed, as he leaped straight into the ocean from the top of the wall in a rush of adrenaline, disregarding the onslaught of enemies that came before him. He would audaciously begin overpowering his foes that were at a disadvantage in skill and gear, the Minister of Defense, was able stall for enough time for the reinforcements to arrive and face the larger groups of the opposition.
The night arrived, and both sides had their troops ready for the final raid to come about. The opposition charged against the capital once again after the failure of the raid in the afternoon, and the Corrians fiercely retaliated against their enemies in the streets of the capital, failing to make the opposing soldiers stay outside of the walls, which will ultimately result in a major victory, as they began to disperse, as the opposing faction would flee from the island in utter defeat. He would later inherit the name, "The Seawolf," due to his immense bravery and sheer will against the greater odds in the sea that would result in the turning point for Corry.
==== Final Outcome ====
Night falls, full of terrors where the unknown that may come about, both sides had mustered their entire force ready for the final push. Those are the people cut from the same cloth, will have the thought distinct from one another, a battle that will represent who are just and righteous, the victors are the ones to define justice. The Syltorian forces launch their final campaign to reach the capital, after the walls were breached as the Corrian's made the desperate last defense, where the land shall bleed, filled with strife dancing in the calamity. 
The invasion has been a cold-blooded and merciless, even at our darkest moments, there came hope when the battle concluded in the mass of chaos that have ensued. With the comradery and resilience as a united front has persevered with a dumbfounded outcome that no squatter nation has ever achieved. An astonishing victory for Corry against the Second United Crownland of Syltor, with New Corry prepared for what the next coming war, until they had to relocate the capital again, within Bardonian territory due to the upcoming comet that shall cleanse the world anew. The Corrian Remnants has managed to survive and journey forth to the new world of Abexilas, to forge legacy that will immortalize them.
== Abexilas ==
=== Essence of Corry ===
The systematic ideals, the Corry values stem from the influence of their environment that will reflect the journey to Abexilas. It is prominent and commendable for a Corrian to be diligent and passionate with the fruits of the labor. Stating back to a time Corry were poor and underdeveloped during the early stage of their existence, resulted the need for combat as essential to their life, an unrelenting pursuit of power to carve their own freedom within the world. When times are in a dire position, and atrocious, all they have left to turn towards is hope, and find to believe in that came with their own philosophy on pacifism, "One does not strike, without a necessity, if a necessity, then strike without hesitation." Otherwise, they would be picked off by their neighbors, as intertwined within the survival of the fittest where only the strong survives. 
It has gotten drastic to the point that the means of survival was just the Casius Beli to justify their actions due to the Corrian's have a passion for fighting regardless of how feeble an individual may be to participate.
=== Rebirth ===
The Corrian's would eventually be resettled in Talasi, in the realm of Abexilas on the 13th of April at 9:54am. Originally starting off as a colony with no clear direct securing of the lands with Etris as the North-Western region of Talasi, being the first landmark. The territory is currently situated in the continent of Iristoya and the subcontinent of Gexico being Corrian's first neighbors were the Archonate of Orian and Rohldan. Corry was able to settle in what now is the capital city Luminaria on the 17th of April in the northern peninsula within Talasi. In which the Corrian forefathers were to formally claim the domain on the 30th of April. Situated in the subcontinent of Shurdal, being Grand Castell, Rethia and Seawolves as their closest neighbors, with Tholouj Algharb, Waterhaven, Araanas, Khara Ghami and Yvres being the furthest from their capital.
=== Corry's First Incident: The Grand Theft ===
On the 21st of April, two natives from the colony of Corry, Tristanseeks and Peakpeppr discovered a mass number of unclaimed plots of land inhabited by different cultures, they took the opportunity to orchestrate a plundering spree with unprotected claims. They both shamelessly admitted to their proceeding regardless of the wishes and warnings noted by the prominent Corrian's about their behavior. 
It would not be until the damage that has already been done, nations who were victimized by the two despoilers from their valuables looted, immediately made their claim and pressured the Corrian government. In response, the Supreme Government had punished Tristan and Peak, resulted in being exiled from Corry, to which an issue of a public apology was made by the Supreme Government, with the return of the stolen goods to their neighbors. This would only foretell the major consequences for Corry, and their reputation would be sullied, troubling times for the nation will threaten their survival in the new world.

The State of Xuriograd, primarily residing in the snowy mountains in Iristoya. (Xuriograd is now known as Xuria) 
On the 27th of April, in response to the hostility from the Archonate of Orion, the Corrian's immediately rallied from Etris to take arms to launch an invasion to the Orion capital, Kahei. They enlisted seven of their best troops, the Sieging of Kahei had begun, which they successful occupied the capital, placing it on isolation by lockdown, after the retaliation from citizens of Orion. They foresee that Etris was bound to be a target for potential raids, the Supreme government made the decision to unclaimed the land and abandon the continent of Iristoya, to officially develop Luminaria as the capital, along with other cities especially the state of Xuriograd. 
=== Seawolves attack ===
Three days after leaving Etris, the supreme government of Corry noticed a certain land that stood out near the capital in Talasi, called Whiteport. The claim had particular war ganks would foreshadow an inevitable conflict that has yet to come, they were not looking for peace, only pain.
The Minister of Defense, Tomy, "The Seawolf," has been given the task to organized and reallocated barrels full of materials from the outskirts of Luminaria to the new treasury of the capital, resulting in an ambush caused by an incursion by hired mercenaries from Seawolves. In response, Tomy had retaliated, take make a retreat back to the capital to gather up forces once the citizens of Corry took notice of the state of emergency. Without hesitation, they armed themselves to make haste in confronting the enemy forces who intrude on their soil.
The battle lasted hours after the raid had ended with a clear victory for Corry, Tridder, the leading marauder of the Seawolves had decided to mend their relationship with the Corrian's to solve their disputes in a civil fashion. It is a vital move on Tridder's part, as he would primarily benefit from the ordeal, and mitigate what may have been the destruction of Seawolves civilization. Tridder and the Seawolves were previously victims who were affected by The Grand Theft committed by treacherous Corrian's in exiled Corrian's, wanted to enact vengeance that would have instigated the cycle of hate from an eye-for-eye. After months of commitment and heated discussions, Tomy would rise up the social ladder being the Supreme Minister of Corry for reassurance and negotiations to resolve the issue with the Seawolves, managing to buy the war claim from Tridder for $200,000 along with a Non-Agression Pact between both nations.

Even in the darkest of times, familial courtship is what will guarantee the livelihood to survive in the realm of Abexilas and the unknown. Caranthea and Corry would inevitably place their undying trust, by placing the lives in gratitude for one another, not being deterred by the falsehood and fraudulence that be their poison. 
Caranthea would later transition to be Sahriya through the unification with Yimra Ze Jarazeh. 
=== Interaction with Talasi International Union ===
It took patience for the restoration of Corry reputation among the continent, and the entire outlook for all of Abexilas through diplomacy and development envelopes prominence. The decision by the Corrian government to register their association with the Talasi International Union as a major power alongside Michava. Vital move that will provide more protection through diplomacy, Michava was their first official relationship within the social group, would later be a trusted ally. First beginning as communications and trade through livestock exchanges as the next chapter of their relationship.
Marks the day, where their first reunion of the Talasi International Union (T.I.U.) be rejoiced, where representatives and key figures of the union discussed matters of politics about the current status of their nations, plans and projects with potential allies and enemies.
=== Kuzina Joins the Realm ===
Officially on the 23rd of September 2024, the integration of Kuzina emerging into the realm, due to the close ties and sportsmanship between both prominent members in their respective domains is the next chapter for Corry to embrace. The Kingdom of Kuzina, from the central Talasi would merge with Corry, with the Kuzinites being officially recognized as Corrian's, along with new members from the settlement being installed to the government.

Known as the Orvian Expedition, established themselves as an authoritarian-state. Due to the presence of Andersmart, negotiations were held with Corry for independence. This would eventually result in the Orvian people being vassalized as the Festungsstaat of New Blih on the 28th of November 2024. The weekly fees and the demilitarization in exchange for Corrian protection and they were to receive acknowledgement for their autonomy. 
=== Tiberian Arrogance ===
The 6th of December 2024, an announcement from the Tiberian Commonwealth made a proclamation to forego a major war within the northern continent of Tiberia and primarily Northern Talasi will leave Sahriya and its allies including Beepeck are restless with anticipation. The Supreme Chancellor was wondering when they will draw their blade after looming transgressions. The insult term "Norvinium" is a deadnaming campaign against Tiberian nations since the continent was originally named Norvinia, (Norvinium being a wordplay for Tiberium) until there was rigged poll to be renamed Tiberia, to which they are selling and denying the history. Latter being a name push and manipulative nations in the continent. 
Thus, commenced the birth of the Sons of Corry campaign for the Post-Tiberium V. Sahriya Colonialism Allegations where it that Norvinium lands will be ripe for their pickings, it was speculated that anchor babies will be made and left behind during the collapse. Though from the perspective of others, people will mistakenly the quantity of land over quality to be the deciding factor for the outcome.

They will be met with destitute under the occupation as Corry as their first priority to eliminate distractions before they are on the move for the campaign in Tiberium. It has brought about unfortunate news that will be broken down to her now potential ex-husband or widow about finding a new wife, it has been an undeterred response for Regnum Aquilarum to aligned themselves with Corry and Sahriya for the upcoming war beforehand, which already makes the Tholouji people demise all the more inevitable as more neighbors had risen against Tiberium for their own personal grudge. 
Tholouj-Algharb is not to be mistaken for Syren under Iceio domain, who seceded from her reign, and integrated themselves to Michava, as their leader, who is on great speaking terms with the Corrian Supreme Government. Once Montarius Chalice had gotten word about the incident that happen, he was left utterly shocked about the revelation, then went to go transcribe the event that unfold. It made the need for the impending arrival of Endara, once remembered as The God of War & Blood, more than ever before to bring forth the moral high ground and divine right to conquer in the pursuit of retribution. The cleansing of disparity and tyranny in place to bring back solidarity is fore coming upon his return from the dark dimension.
Tomy Cero final response before the Corrian Stampede:
