Kratoria en Olea

The Kingdom of Olea was a former nation on the continent of Elastra officially established on Thursday, June 22nd, 2023. It was made up of two former Aristii provinces.
== History ==
==== Foundation Era ====
With the death of Otto en Olea and the sacking of Akirashalam it was decided in order to prevent the total collapse of Aristii culture, the Imperial Provinces of Aristios would have to be split up into successor states. The successor states were to be Preyella, Alanios and Olea, Wize the heir to the throne was entrusted with Olea to which he accepted with a heavy heart. The government was made up with a central leader the Kratoras and a court filled with his ministers like the early days of the Empire.
The nation was named after the Olea Family which was the choice of Otto before he died during the siege of Akirashalam. There was major instability following the second Ashai-Aristii War. Almost all of the military aged men were culled because of an order given out by Otto for everyone to fight in defense of Akirashalam as a last stand. It had stopped Ashai from finishing off the Aristii remnants, but Akirashalam was sacked. 
Perdin was named the capital of the new nation. It was the largest city, but the city was still in ruins due to the Aristii Revolution. The city was filled with fall pits and a large ugly wall that had to be torn down because of its instability. It was extremely dark times for the nation, the squatters had formed their own nation that split Olea in half called Defias with the help of Ashai. The nation went into a period of isolation only communicating with the other Aristii remnants. There was constant threat of invasion by Ashai or the neighboring nations of that had been created by Ashai as a proxy. 
==== Reconstruction Era ====
With their capital still in ruins Wize en Olea and Hessel Van Gallisti his internal minister got to work. The city of Perdin needed heavy construction to be done so the remaining population got to work fixing it up. Wize established a new Voclarist Church and established the Olea post headed by Midnight. Hessel worked on the main government building and tearing down the wall. The nation of Olea was healing bit by bit, but it would get itself embroiled in another conflict. Olea's neighbors the Defias Coalition and Costa Stellar would merge into one nation. The Oceanic League made itself an enemy of Olea secretly. Ryver a member of the Oceanic League and Wize's son secretly gave Olea information that there was a spy in the young nation. Wize was enraged but knew he couldn't directly war Defias and Costa Stellare. 
Olea approached Dova a smaller nation to the west of them with a plan. The nation of Dova wanted Costa Stellare and Olea wanted Defias so they made a plan, Olea along with the rest of the Aristii remnants would support Dova in secret while Dova would war Costa Stellare. They used a squatter nation that Costa was already warring, they backed the squatters. However, the server had crashed in the middle of the battle making it a stalemate, this was extremely unfortunate for Olea. Dova went behind Olea's back and made a deal with Defias and bought Costa Stellare with the money that the Aristii Remnants gave them to hire Aragotha and thus the war ended with Olea receiving zero land and being five-hundred thousand dollars in debt.
The government decided it was time to fix relations with Defias because they had merged with Yuvaria a nation Wize was familiar with. Olea had integrated a small part of Ameria owned by Ryver into the nation and they began construction on Perdin once again. Olea had grown extremely close to Exousia and by proxy Veskalide, apart from the Aristii remnants Veskalide was their closest ally. Hessel Van Gallisti had approached a remnant of the VVR, Gardenia of which he was very close with and ended up getting them to join Olea as a vassal state which brough Olea into the realm of VVR politics. 
==== VVR Wars ====
The region of central of Eldham known as "Ex-VVR" was a region of extreme instability similar to the Sparwood continent on Rathnir. The leader of Olea, Wize convinced his vassal to allow him to a small part to his friend Ryver where he would form his own nation Tyrathia. Their neighbors Defias integrated into Yuvaria and then Yuvaria merged with Valoore to create Yuvaria-Valoore Kingdom. This new nation run by KuhJay the old leader of Defias and Micheal Aurelian son of Tylics and leader of Valoore had increased relations with Olea since they had land in ex-VVR. Yuvaria-Valoore was at war with Valreshiya who happened to own land in ex-VVR. 
Kayeda a known figure in VVR politics before its dissolution made a play for an Olea controlled town in Gardenia, claim-couping it and declaring independence, Valreshiya backed Kayeda's claims. The new rebellion was an embarrassment for the Olea government, the town Kayeda had claimed Pactria was a large central town. Wize put his son Milos in charge of quelling the rebellion, however Kayeda and her second in command Delta had hired Aragotha. The defense had held against two separate sieges.
This wouldn't be the only war Olea had fought in ex-VVR territory, they had also backed Preyella and the Imperials with a siege which also was a failure. Wize had decided to sell off the rest of his VVR territory in hopes of earning back a sliver of what he lost supporting these wars. Olea had lost in total five-hundred thousand from their VVR occupation and had been internationally humiliated. Oleannen industry began creating new sets and potions to regain what they had lost in the recent wars.
==== Dissolution ====
With the population of nearby Defias which was controlled by Yuvraria who had recently unmerged with Valoore, Olea requested Antflip the leader of Yuvaria for the Defias territory which he gave due to his close ties with Wize. Integrating Defias was a huge boost of Olea. Orithia a nation run by Swen and a close ally of the Aristii remnants was at war with a mutual enemy, Sylvania. It was decided with Ashai now breaking a part and Sylvania being warred Olea decided it was time to merge back with the other Aristii remnants towards the end of Eldham.
The Second Kratoria of Aristios was formed with Wize as its Kratoras thus ending the Kratoria of Olea. The Kratoria of Olea, being one of the only pieces of Aristios to survive and not be under foreign occupation since the beginning of Eldham survived until the end. The nation dealt with extreme hardship from its first inception, it built a country of survivors who could live through almost anything. The people of the nation of Olea have a saying "Baptized in Blood." From the start the nation was born into conflict and it died entering conflict with one of the largest nations on Eldham.
