Gallix, officially the Second Galligasque Kingdom, was a Kingdom of Cartonia until 709, home to the chicken species. 
Before the War, Gallix was the smallest Kingdom in Cartonia by size, and was landlocked between its only two neighbors: Cervidium and Vulpus. This would contribute to its undoing, as Cervidium and Vulpus invaded and occupied the Kingdom two years into the War. As of late 709, Gallix ceased to exist. The former territory was divided between Vulpus and Cervidium. 
==Geography==
Gallix was landlocked between Cervidium and Vulpus, and was bordered to the west and east by the Cartonian River. The nation was densely populated but overall had the smallest population of any nation. Despite its small area and dominion, Gallix was rich in its own history and culture, even having an individual language: Galligasque.
==History==
Gallix pledged allegiance to the Harmony Crown in the Year 1, thus uniting the Cartonian continent. It followed Simeone and preceded Cervidium in the rotation.
At the outbreak of the War in 708, Gallix declared neutrality. After the Vixen Queen abolished the Harmony Crown in February 709, eight further nations rushed into the conflict. Despite this, Gallix maintained its neutrality. After Cervidium sided with Vulpus, Gallix found itself sandwiched between two of the largest warring states on the continent. 
In June 709, King Poultrus III could no longer ignore the calls from the Granite Bloc and Summer Sun for Gallix's support. Poultrus feared dire consequences if he aligned with the Granite Bloc due to Gallix's location. Therefore, he reluctantly joined the Summer Sun. The conditions of the alliance was the retention of Galligasque sovereignty and the assurance that chickens would not be drafted. Three months later, this promise was broken when Vixen VII and Stag Ellis enforced a harsh conscription notice to bolster trench support in Capricon. Poultrus betrayed his alliance and orchestrated a mass evacuation of troops to the Granite Bloc. The plot was discovered, and Gallix was invaded by forces of Vulpus and Cervidium. The King and the royal family were publicly executed for their insurrection. Even the extended members of the family were tracked and murdered. 
Immediately upon the execution of the royal family, the monarchy was dissolved and the Kingdom of Gallix ceased to exist. The territory was split into West and East Gallix, with Vulpus occupying and administering the east and Cervidium the west. The occupied zones were formally annexed into its respective Kingdoms by 711. 
West Gallix, annexed by Cervidium, was granted a shred of autonomy in 725 when it was inducted into Stag Barrow's Union of Cervidian Centralized States (UCCS). The Union dissolved that same year. Gallix remains split between Cervidium and Vulpus.
