The Nordessonate/Commonwealth of Ancora was a state within the Lunari Empire, formerly known as the Kingdom of Seahaven.
== History ==
==== Origins ====
Please refer to the following articles for the history of the Kingdom of Seahaven prior to the Nordessonate of Ancora.
Preceded By: Kingdom of Seahaven
=== The Commonwealth of Ancora ===
==== The Start of the Commonwealth ====
On January 25th, 2023. The Commonwealth of Ancora was founded from the Kingdom of Seahaven as the government voted on a new start for the nation. Although being under the queenship of Cheezus, the council is being managed by CaptainNorth370 after his return to the nation from his retirement. Beginning new proposals to help the Commonwealth start anew, such as rebuilding Seaside and rework on the economy.
==== Operation Renaissance ====
Operation Renaissance was a series of missions and goals for the old nation of Seahaven to get back on its feet, such as the renaming of Seahaven to Ancora. Reorganizing the entire government, re-establishing a military, Centralization, New Economic Reform and much more. A majority of these goals were met with mild success which ended up with one question, the fate of the monarch at the time, Cheezus.
==== The Zendenian-Ancoran Union ====
With Captain North being friends and rising the government ranks in their neighboring state of Zendenia, a proposal was made to make a union between the Zendenians and Ancorans, it was proposed to the Zendenian Senate and it was accepted with no nays. The Union was founded but very decentralized and poor, A major problem it had was that the Ancoran and Zendenian Government didn't put a lot of effort into it, while still existing as it was never officially disbanded. Many don't recognize it as an official union that happened.
==== The Return of the Diarchy ====
The council of Ancora decided to make a vote on if there should be a resurgence of the diarchy, or keep the Norcican Queen in power. This vote was a tie but the council made the decision to start the diarchy back up. This would cause Marino (BobBopSopPop) to return home to Seaside and bring back the Von-Blarg Monarchy. However with this new monarch, Cheezus was sort of shunned out for her lack of leadership within the nation during its most desperate time and so deposed.
==== The Ardune Invitation ====
Soon the Commonwealth decided to invite neighboring states if they wanted to join. One state was the state of Eden. Lead by Tempo Jotio Takumi of Ardune. After Captain North invited Jotio to join, Jotio accepted. Although much debate, Jotio came through becoming the Third Monarch of Ancora, bringing the Takumi Dynasty to Ancora. Jotio would lead and strive towards the reconstruction of Seaside as it was majorly greifed by what some believed to be an alt of an old Seaside Citizen. Working long hours, the city was mostly fixed to its original state.
==== The New Monarchs ====
By the time the old Monarch of Seaside, Marino. Came to the town and helped repair it, he had decided to retire and live a quieter life within the nation. During his time as monarch however, the town of Honoris, ruled by Pirnda/Honorzith, Head of the House Whoin. Talked with the old Seaside King about merging their houses to save the Von-Blarg line, Marino accepted and soon the houses merged into Von-Blarg-Whoin. So with this, Pirnda/Honorzith took the crown, making him the first person in Ancoran History to become monarch without previously originally being a part of either the Von-Blarg or Norcician Dynasty.
==== The Quiet Era ====
For almost a period of a few months, Ancora died down a bit again due to most of the government being inactive, later on Jotio decided to leave the commonwealth due to this inactivity. It also didn't help that the Lunari Empire. Still directly occupied the nation's old capital of Baronov, leaving it rot away, taking away's a majority of Ancora's industry and resources. Throughout this time, the Baronovian People and some others in the government decided to move away from Plagos, going to the Empire of Bardonia for refuge. Setting up the town of New Baronov or now called Port Klipzchia.
=== Nordessonate of Ancora ===
==== The Nordessonate ====
After a while of this inactivity, Honorzith tried to revive the nation by doing censuses and expanding the reach of his town of Honoris to other islands such as Altesten and Limer. However it was until Honorzith brought back the Diarchy with the last true Von-Blarg. Brandon Von-Blarg. Brandon being the son of the very first Seaside King, came to the throne and tried his best to revive the nation by posting guides and resources for citizens to use and soon enough, decided to rework on the entire culture of Ancora.
Changing the names of titles within the nation, such as the word monarch to Nordesson, Council Member to Phantisnate and Soldier to Sjóleiros. Also planning a coronation ceremony for his rise to Nordesson. Which would hold a PvP event and feast.
While this Coronation Ceremony would never fully happen due to many reasons, it established a new era for Ancora and a new revival.
==== The Captain's Second Return ====
After many factors within the Empire of Bardonia, Such as the loss of territory and weakening of the empire, Bardonia joined the Shogunate of Plagatea aka Greater Plagos to make sure it doesn't get into any more wars. So this means the Baronovian/Ancoran people who fled Plagos to start a new life, just came back to it. Such as Captain North who decided to help out his old Nation again after New Baronov/Port Klipzchia became less of a priority.
Captain North returned and get the nation back to its feet, recruiting, bringing activity and providing advice for the government. Soon enough providing government and internal reforms and reorganization. Also preparing events with help of Brandon Von-Blarg.
==== The New Regent ====
North would soon proclaim himself Regent of the Ancorans, helping the Ancorans in anyway possible such as economic, building or political advice. While the City of Baronov would lay under direct Lunari Occupation, North would begin reconstruction of the city while being regent and also cleaning up other Ancorn towns and surrounding landscape
North would also conduct more diplomacy with Lunaris along with the help of Brandon, in hopes that Lunaris would forgive the state for its past schemes. They also started reconstruction of Honoris and started to reform the government by adding the Klipzinate.
==== The Return of the Capital City ====
After a lot of talk between Captain North and Rosa Rune of the Lunari Empire. There was an agreement that after more then half a year under direct Lunari occupation, the capital city of Ancora would return to the state and under ownership of Captain North once again on June 28th, 2023. This event was monumental to the nation as with Baronov once again under Ancoran Hands. Ancora could be fully restrengthened with the old farms and builds left abandoned in Baronov being put to use once again.
Including the religious temples once left abandoned being brought back to life as Captain North, head of the State Religion of Krellr Gqfugr announced the second Skógr Festival in Baronov, to thank the spirits for guiding their people back to the old city.
The Second Skógr Festival was held on July 12th, 2023. Where citizens and old friends of the Nordessonate came to the city of Baronov, and went to the holy Igskorani Temple to begin the festival. At Igskorani Temple, Captain North threw in gold and other highly valuable items into the holy waters of the temple and soon enough the spirit of bamboo, Skógr appeared in front of the crowd. Promising that he will protect the citizens of Baronov from anyone who tries to harm them again by giving them a blessing of protection.
==== The Ancoran Civil War ====
Soon enough however, the Nordessonate started to become more and more radical, the three kingdoms that made up the Nordessonate would soon choose an ideology to focus on, each believing to bring true glory and freedom to the people of Ancora.
The Nordessonate split into three, with the Ancoran Government in the city of Baronov forming the Imperialist Party. The citizen of Honorsten forming the Honorsteni Order, and the civilians of Seaside forming the Republic of Seaside.
The Imperialist Party was the party that ruled the Kingdom of Baronov, their beliefs were that the Nordessonate should still maintain it's monarchy and bring back the glory Ancora had during the age of the Seahaven Empire. Made up of a majority of the Ancoran Senate and monarchs, they would form the Imperial Militia to go and defend their belief and end the civil war, they would do this by destroying the other two factions in the cities of Honorsten and Seaside.
The Honorsteni Order would be formed when the people of Honorsten exiled their monarch, Honorzith and established Anarchy within the city. Although Anarchist, in order to win the civil war the Honorsteni Order was formed to form a militia and defeat the Democrats and Imperialists and proclaim true freedom for the Ancoran people by destroying the government and bring free chaos within the nation.
The Republicans of Seaside or the Democrats would be formed in the city of Seaside after the people voted to exile their monarch, Brandon and go back to their old ways of democracy. They would use their wealth to raise a militia and defend the people from imperialists and anarchists and bring true democratic freedom to the rest of the Nordessonate.
The Imperialists however made the first move, With General Rodarth and Daldiepie making plans to invade Seaside from Fort Worthalot and Baronov. They sailed to the city with a group of militia members and captured a majority of the city, inflicting deadly fireworks into the democrats, blowing them up. Soon enough the Imperialists arrived at King's Square, the center of the city and a tough battle commenced with one of the Mercenaries the republicans hired, Parrot, slaughtering many of the Imperialist forces. Soon enough however Parrot surrendered to the Imperial Militia, Rodarth and Daldiepie declared victory and held a short celebration in the city. They would make a small monument mourning the soldiers that were slain during the battle on the beach of the city.
With this victory for the Imperialists. the next battle was planned to destroy the Anarchists at Honorsten. With General Rodarth dong most of the planning, the Imperial Militia sailed from Baronov and arrived at Honorsten. Under the commands of General Daldiepie and Rodarth, the militia entered the city. However the Honorsteni Order were ready, soon enough the order attacked and slaughtered many soldiers from the Imperial Militia with only taking minimal damage. However with Rodarth using his firework crossbow, he reigned down thousands of fireworks into the hearts of many anarchist soldiers until only a few were left. A wild goose chase then happened as Imperial Soldiers were chasing the last of the Anarchists all around the city. However the anarchists still managed to kill a few imperial soldiers throughout the chase. Eventually the Anarchists proposed negotiations to the imperial militia and the militia accepted.
Sitting down at the map table inside of the Honorsten Castle, the two sides talked about a peace deal. The deal that was accepted is that the Imperialists would pay the Anarchists blocks of diamond in return for the Anarchists surrender. However one of the Anarchists wired the room with dynamite and soon the entire room would explode, severely injuring the majority of the high command of the imperialists but killing off the last of the Anarchists. With this bloody battle though, many of the militia began to anger and blamed the General Daldiepie for his incompetent planning and leadership. Soon the militia were beating him and overthrew him as Honorzith/Pirnda disowned him and threw him off of the tallest tower of the castle, almost killing him but surviving for another day. Honorsten however would be in ruins as the castle was blown up and the Anarchists destroyed many of the town's infrastructure.
However the civil war was over, soon enough the Imperial Senate of Ancora gave a speech in Baronov proclaiming the following,
"People of the Nordessonate, After weeks of conflict and chaos, order is restored within our glorious kingdom! We will begin reconstructing the damage the rebels have caused, both in the towns of Seaside and Honorsten, along with the government. 
Making sure this will never happen again. But soon, the Nordessonate will be ready to expand, to restore its former glory just like its predecessor. We will bring glory back to the Shattered Sea. 
Our Imperial Diplomats will begin to start talks with the other states, hopefully one will make the right choice and join us on our quest.
May the Gods Bless the Sea!"
And soon, reconstruction of the nation commenced and the expansion of its borders to other isles, proclaiming a new imperial era for the nation.
==== The Nordessonate and their Overlord ====
With the recent civil war and it ending in Imperialist Victory, Ancora was now very ambitious with it's activity and strength reinvigorated, Ancora aimed to spread it's influence and project it's strength and show the neighboring states and new Empress of Lunaris that Ancora will no longer be pushed around and be told what to do. However despite there still being a hatred to Lunaris within Ancoran Citizens and Government, Captain North and the other Nordessons like Pirnda and Brandon Von Blarg became candidates in the newest Lunari minister elections, and luckily Captain North and Pirnda did become ministers however due to North's close friendship with the empress, North soon became a close advisor to the new Lunari Empress as now with the old Empress of Lunaris gone. Empress Rosa Rune would have to manage a nation with no military and being themselves very inexperienced.
With Captain North soon being promoted to becoming a council member, he and other newly appointed council members which many of who come from Rosa's home of Zendenia and they would try their best to stabilize the rapidly destabilizing Lunari Empire. One of the first actions proposed was to restart the Lunari Military and Captain North proposed Brandon Von Blarg should be in charge of it as he has the most experience of anyone currently in the empire and Rosa agreed, soon Brandon would become council member and Head of the Lunari Military.
Soon Ancora had most of it's highest government members in powerful positions in the Lunari Empire, this would secure the relationship between Ancora and their overlord Lunaris and make sure Lunaris would never screw over Ancora anytime soon, but now Ancora's ambition would be doable and more importantly legal.
==== The Nordessonate Strike Back ====
On October 12th, 2023. The New Imperialist Senate of Ancora would send an ultimatum to it's neighboring states which were Osterium, Zendenia, Kolbeck (Formally Skjoldrbrodir), Myrtana and the old islands of Eden from the Lunari Crownlands. The Nordessonate's Ultimatum gave the state leaders 3 days to respond before the Ancoran Imperial Army raises once more and sails to conquer what was theirs. Obviously majority of the state leaders rejected the ultimatum and in general just didn't respond.
Only one state leader decided to join the Nordessonate peacefully and that was the Kingdom of Myrtana. Ruled and Governed by GeneralSkeletos or Ravain Prolcun-Rune. A treaty was made and Myrtana would become a state within the Nordessonate of Ancora and a festival in the Myrtanan Capital of Lucida would be made to celebrate their entry within the Ancoran Nordessonate.
Meanwhile Ancoran Boats would begin to sail all around the Shattered Sea, They would first sail north to the isles of Kolbeck. However no battle took place as a peace treaty would be made between Captain North and AC0N. Ancora would stop their invasion on Kolbeck and return occupied land while in exchange Kolbeck would pay Ancora 350k of Reparations for their actions against Ancora in the Past during the Seaside-Baronov Civil War. With the new found friendship between the two Viking states, the Ancoran Fleet moved south to the lands of Zendenia.
Soon the Ancoran Fleet would arrive on the isles of Zendenia, with little resistance the Ancoran Army would take it over and annex it for the Nordessonate. This recent annexation would be unpopular with the local Zendenians as they hate the new found Ancoran Imperialism, they were too weak to stand against the Imperialist Army. Sadly the Ancoran Fleet would be severely damaged due to the icebergs that surround the Islands of Zendenia, so Imperial Army couldn't travel to it's goal of Osterium but could travel to the Plagosi mainland in small droves.
So soon enough the Imperial Army would set up a rally point at the small outpost of Aldrnari's Landing which is on the old Island of Ardune which was recently gifted to Ancora after Jotio would die shortly after with no heir. With the Imperial Army on the Mainland and the Ancoran Fleet still in repair. The Campaign would continue on the mainland, passing through Stitchtopia and conquering the lands of Czervoslavia and Veldion. After resupplying at the city of Black Hollow in Aurora Novum, The Imperial Army would continue to march north of the mainland, setting up outposts named after the spirits in the Ancoran Religion of Krellr Gqfugr such as Vindur's Pub, Grjot Keep, Tunfifil City and Hraun's Fort.
The Imperial Army would soon occupy most of the Plagosi Mainland and all took less then 3 weeks. Soon the Ancoran Fleet was repaired and the Imperial Army was ready to set sail to the Kingdom of Osterium. However something would happen that not only would severely effect the Ancoran Campaign of conquering all of their previous land, but also the stability of the entire Lunari Empire as a whole.
==== A Lunari Twilight ====
With Ancoran Leadership also now being Lunari Leadership, Captain North and Brandon were both now concerned with any issues or problems that will effect the Lunari Empire and soon enough, a lot of these problems arose. Brandon would soon bring back an old Lunari senate member from the dead and bring back Echo Luon from the old state of Sandonia into Lunari Politics as most of the council agreed he was experienced enough to help Lunaris in its current situation. Throughout the period of September to October 2023. The Empire of Kartek-Fjellheim and Ultima had both started to have towns succeed from Lunaris and join them as new towns in their empire.
With pieces of land being stolen from Lunaris, the Lunari council worked hard to find a solution to resolve this crisis. Empress Rosa Rune however would make some matters much worse with some terrible internal management prompting more town owners to be wanting to leave the empire. Brandon and Captain North soon decided that the empire is soon coming to it's end as it simply cannot defend itself from foreign threats anymore and that states within the empire were at risk as their land can be stolen from by either Kartek or Ultima.
The end of the Lunari Empire eventually came on October 10th, 2023. The Empire of Kartek-Fjellheim had sent Empress Rosa an ultimatum demanding the rest of Lunaris be annexed by the greater Kartek Horde. It was here Rosa as her last action as Lunari Empress was to dissolve the Lunari Empire. This would release most states to go free, however Kartek would try hard to coerce much of the break away states to join them or else face a war. States like Kolbeck, Myrtana and a few others would cave in and join the Karteki Empire. Ancora however would find itself free for the first time in over a year from Lunari rule, soon enough Ancora had to act in the current chaos in Plagos.
Captain North and Brandon would soon agree to reform the Ancoran government and nation and bring back the empire that had ruled the Plagosi waves before Lunaris came in. The Nordessonate of Ancora would soon reform into the Seahaven Imperium, also known as the Second Empire of Seahaven.
