Lincis and Mqthijs had been living peacefully in Manandorff for quite some time, this was until their Lord started demanding more and more from their citizens. He demanded a 70% taxation of all iron and gold farmed, all citizens had to be in the mines for one hour a day minimum and they also had to spend one hour of their day building on the wall surrounding the city. This is when Lincis and Mqthijs had enough and starting planning a coup against IMKingKole, their lord. The higher lords in Redoriv found out about this coup and squashed it before it could really take off. Mqthijs and Lincis did not feel welcome in Redoriv no more and fled to found their own free state. But since all the land on Eldham has already been taken they had no other choice but to settle on some ice caps. They build their first town called Vallava here and ruled it together peacefully. This is when they heard there was land being sold near them for one million Eldham Dollars. All of vallava grinded together to buy this piece of main land. They succeeded in buying this land and started their second town called Mesara. Now Lincis and Mqthijs had what they had been looking for for so long, their own free nation. The Kingdom of Netvia.

The Kingdom of Netvia's euphoria over their creation did not last long however, an Imperialistic Rathnirian state who had already set foot on Eldham south of Netvia soon started asking around about the military of Netvia and finding out if Netvia was a good piece of land to expand their Eldham Colony into, Mqthijs and Lincis knew they had no shot if it came down to a war. This is when Mqthijs opened talks with their trading partner the Black Isles for a possible merger or union. The Black Isles were very interested in this idea and even the state of Eldercrest joined this merger. In , Morladron Mysterlu was born. In Morladron each of the three states had to pick one representative from their nation who would form the council of Pirate Lords. These would rule Morladron. For Netvia King Mqthijs would become the Pirate Lord of Netvia leaving Lincis as his right hand.
It was a big shock however when King Mqthijs coronated his son Olary as the new king and ordered himself executed at the hand of Olary with his own blade, Olary obeyed this request and crowned himself King of Netvia, Pirate Lord of Morladron. Immedietly afterward, Lincis, Mqthijs right hand demanded Olary an illegitimate heir and demanded that he be crowned Pirate Lord of Morladron. Olary argued that his father elected him as the heir to the throne and not Lincis. Netvia began to split down the middle between Olary's and Lincis' supporters until finally it was decided that Olary was the rightful heir after Lincis shocked the Netvian citizens with an attempt on Olary's life. Olary forgave Lincis and kept him as his second in command as that is what his father would have wished.
After a Morladron civil war Morladron went democratic and the Netvian towns Mesara and Vallava were no longer in the hands of Olary von Mqthijs and Lincis, this caused him to see the world by travelling around visiting many places. The old guard of Netvia had officially left Old-Netvian territory.

After Olary von Mqthijs felt like he was done travelling the world he wanted to reunite with the Netvian people and their culture, he started by travelling to Mesara to visit his father's grave. Upon arriving there he couldn not even recognize Mesara anymore. The Ocean Volks Union, supported by Sylvania, had taken over all of Old-Netvia after many battles with Morladron, the once beautiful towns of Vallava and Mesara had turned into a battleground. The grave of Mqthijs was gone. Olary von Mqthijs lost his home, all of the Netvians had lost their home. Olary decided that this could not and will not be the end of the Netvian culture and what they stand for. He contacted one of his friends he met on his journey, NAPLES_ESCOBAR from Drackar came to his aid and sold him one of Drackar's islands. Olary- and Crimsoncatt von Mqthijs and many more old Netvians sailed out to this new island. Under the Grand Lord Olary von Mqthijs they formed the new Authoritarian Netvian Republic. The town they formed on this island is now called Oldendam

== Culture ==
In the Netvian culture there are some values that are characteristic for a Netvian, they have shown to have these qualities time and time again and it is now ingraved in their culture. These values are what Netvians are and strive towards.
A strong work ethic is characteristic for a Netvian, this is because of how hard the Netvians had to work to be where they are now, if you look at the Netvian history this Netvian work ethic is recognizable everywhere, they have had to migrate twice and build up new towns from the ground up. They had to mine for days on end to buy their land to let their culture flourish. They had to grind for Morladron in Morladron's endless wars.
The Netvians are known for their building skills, after having to migrate multiple times they have now build multiple towns all around Eldham. From Radshire in West-Eldham. Vallava and Mesara and more small towns in Old-Netvia to Oldendam in the center of Eldham. They have left their mark all over the world.
If you were to ask a Netvian what they value most, its money. Their desire for money and richdom is unrivaled, since Netvians aren't always the strongest they had to rely on their brain to outsmart people. These skills have been giving from father to son. This is what makes the Netvians such good merchants. Their ability to outsmart other traders and find the perfect buyers and sellers is truly unmatched.
== Language ==
The Netvians originate from multiple different continents and nations, and with all the trading the Netvians do all around the world they use the English language most. Although a reasonably sized part of Netvia does originate from the Verenigde Vrijmasten Raden, the Dutch language that is spoken there is also used in Netvia. The Rat Tongue Olary has learned from time in the Rattican has also left his mark on the Netvian language. In Oldendam you can hear a noticable Rat Accent in most of the citizens.
