Duchy of Saloria

== Establishment and Early Years of Saloria ==
The Duchy of Saloria, also known as, Saloria, was established in year 37 of the Voyagers Era. 
Salorians, being descended from Rhodockians, kept their culture largely intact, share the majority of their culture with the Rhodockian people, who live in smalle communities and strongholds across Abexilas, Along with sharing small portions with local cultures, taking the majority of these from Murim.
The establishment of Saloria is well documented as it is a recent event, the Salorian people, at the time being migrating Rhodockians moving north from Rhodockia and Veluca-Serenissima due to the Chimerian Struggle, they eventually settled directly next to city ruins occupied by an unorganized faction. The cities' name is currently unknown and lost to time, shortly after settling here, House Serenica, a prominent noble house originating from Veluca-Serenissima in Southern Talasi, took power in Saloria. They easily took power due to their wealth, along with owning a large sum of land. They also declared our independence amongst the divided region, largely being into separate unrecognized factions.
The Flag of Saloria was created based on House Serenica's coat of arms, being a double headed eagle placed on a yellow background in the top right and bottom left corner, followed by red and white stripes in the other two corners. the yellow background would be divided from the red and white stripes with thick black lines. this flag is distinct from the Rhodockian flag, taking no inspiration from it, regardless of the Salorians being descended from Rhodockia and their shared cultural ties.
== La Paza Tensions ==
In year 41 a neighboring nation going by the name of "La Paza",sent an ultimatum regarding an unfinished fortress on the border, demanding we disable a 10 chunk border limitation and let them claim this strategically important fortress, or submit and join their nation.
We denied, and La Paza quickly backed down, the denial was due to the strategic location and value of this fortress, being afraid of it being used against us.
== The Confederacy ==
Shortly after the La Paza Tensions, we joined an anti BTC coalition, coined as the "Loranik Coalition" which quickly changed into the formation of a confederacy. This confederacy consists of Saloria, Tsadreka, Neomurim, and Danubia, this confederacy was made to combat colonization in our peninsula and have this peninsula prosper as a unified state.
== Collapse of Rhodockia ==
After the confederacy was formed, our Ally (former), Rhodockia, collapsed due to incompetent leadership, high taxes, and high quotas for work. This highlighted a major flaw in Advantism, quickly after the collapse Saloria abandoned Advantism and adopted an absolute monarchy as a government form, this is a way to separate ourselves from Rhodockia and their ideology, which has wronged our brothers and sisters in Rhodockia.
