Kyydrosil

Kyydrosil is an oligarchy with a prior and vast history of tribal violence along with the subtle nature of technological interest of the ancients. Kyydrosil itself is located within the northern region of the sub-continent Helmia on the root continent of Nieden, though it is tied to Syltör politically and economically. Its foundlings lay at their beginning on 8/23/2021 with a then-soon plethora of violent activities and regional conflicts. The nation itself is built upon the values of combat and blood shed with a majority of Raajjyn kinsmen, though, other species have entered their sphere and have thus forth integrated into both their society and ideals. Due to Kyydrosil being an oligarchy, the domain is ruled by 5 consuls with each taking part of their own jobs and roles within the nation that help guide it towards its future goals effectively.
== Government ==
Kyydrosil is a oligarchic military republic, its roots are in warfare and the system displays such though subtly. 5 consuls are laid within the ruling council all of which whom are trusted and effective leaders to their each respective towns. Though this does not mean all towns are apart of the ruling council more-so that they are next in line to any of the current council members. Kyydrosil is not a direct democracy, and instead the nation utilizes representatives that are elected to participate in a lower decision making slate. There are areas though, of which are more of an attribute to their older tribal days on the Raajjyn side of the multi cultured country, and that is of Raajjyn town owners. Raajjyn who hold power in towns and or own them are referred to as chieftains though any other species are not referred to this term. Some tribal sects do still exist within Kyydrosil but as of late are almost completely different from their initial roots, however, some traditions within the government do mirror their past methods.
=== Alliances and Affiliations ===
Often Kyydrosil participates in wars both foreign and domestic, as such they've made themselves a large gathering of both allies and enemies over the pass of time.

== Culture ==
Kyydrosil has a complex culture made up of multiple different cultures as reflected in its many architectural styles of its many towns. This is due to the constant cross breeding and cross integration processes that prior tribes had gone through over the years on rathnir but also due to the immigrant like nature of the Raajjyn themselves. Though many of the scientific structures and ancient machines are that of Raajjyn design, along with some houses, a large majority of Kyydrosil architecture can be viewed as some what all over the place. The borders of Kyydrosil are quite packed in together and the large walls they construct per expansion creates cultural boundaries between different sections and regions of the nation.
Raajjyn culture is in majority and has influenced others within the nation itself especially when it comes to the engineering of defensive structures. Raajjyn homes, however, within the Gyyzon district beside Veldora Vralas is very reminiscent of a merge between their ancient architecture and new influences from foreign contact. Though towns such as Monmyth more resemble a generic form of architecture from a far off region of the world, sporting more western styles compared to the almost pseudo alien style of Gyyzon. Inron is more suited of dwarven styles, but as stated the cultural divide within Kyydrosil in terms of style is very much so remarking its vast protective walls and compactness.

== History ==
=== Pre-Kyydrosil and Foundings ===
A multitude of Kyydro founding members initially belonged to the aforementioned Grey Banner, though hold no ties to it. Through constant threat of annihilation and clawing its way toward a final goal of settling and building a new nation in the ash of Daelyria through the violent means of attempting to cease Bern and the rest of the nation at the time, The Grey Banner would utilize the help of the Syltör League and other friends to try and create a new nation through blood-shed. However, things wouldn't go to plan and a world war would nearly start from their efforts. Miraculously they would pull through and establish the city state of Kyydrosil.
=== Era of Progression ===
Following their independence, Kyydrosil would remain a city state until the land purchase through Aestyria, which promptly renamed to "The State of Kyydrosil". They would experience a steady increase of citizens, with its main city of Inron reaching a peak of ~40 residents in the city. Several national projects were to be completed as well, which included a national marketplace, an underground tunnel network which connected all of its cities, and the construction of infrastructure connecting Inron to the main nether ice highway. 
=== The Creation and Fall of the Helmian State ===
After the conclusion of a brief war with the Kingdom of Mithra, Kyydrosil would go on to unify the entirety of Helmia under one government, something which had not been done since the time of old Noxnorr. The Provisional Helmian Government would be supervised by Bardonia, allowing for the region to recuperate from the war and for Kyydrosil to solidify control and amendments to how the government was ran. Eventually, to appease the old Mithran nobility which opted for a feudal system, a canton system was agreed to as a compromise, one that decentralized much of the country. 
Trouble began for the Helmian government following the collapse of Bardonia no more than a month after the conclusion of the Mithran-Dandelion war. This would lead to Helmian independence, into the formation of the Helmian Federation. However, this federation was short lived as on Feburary 10th, two days after Bardonia's collapse, an insurrection began orchestrated by the Domusists, a religious fringe in Helmia. This insurrection quickly gain traction among disgrunted Mithran nobles, many of which switched sides to help the rebels. Additionally, old Grey Banner leader OctoGlobtor would join the insurrection in a bid to regain control over Kyydrosil.
Foreign support also favored the Domusists, mainly comprising of foreign mercenary groups, however also notably including Ryzan. The support which Helmia did have, most notably from the Credians and Alamaynians were sufficient in holding off the Domusists in the Battle for Illerya, however neither side gained an edge during the fighting. However, following the defection of Kastollia early in the war, then later the succession of Daelryia towards the war, waning support from mercenary groups, and mounting pressure from foreign enemies, the Helmian Federation would surrender seeing as the war was lost.
=== The After-math ===
Following the war, many of those who had defected were promised some sort of compensation in return, whether that be titles, land, money etc. However, no such promises were kept. This would lead to the Dominate of Helmia losing popular support, eventually being ousted and subjugated by the Eldham Kingdom of Goonguard. Kyydrosil however, would retain independence under a tribal system under Octo, eventually being replaced by "Freeman" Jjunrrato.
Kyydrosil would run smoothly as a nation, retaining its borders comparable to its city-state status. However progress would become stagnant within the nation, as many who lived in the area had either been exiled, killed, or fled following the aftermath of the civil war. Support was given by Gertonia, as Kyydrosil was placed under its influence as to help the broken nation fix itself. However, stagnation and decline in Gertonia neglected Kyydrosil as a nation within their sphere of influence. It was then decided to merge with Goonguard controlled Daelyria on May 31st, as both nations peacefully agreed to the integration of Kyydrosil.
=== Present Day ===
Currently, Kyydrosil is a state within The Second Kingdom of Daelyria. Helmia is once again reunited, however under Eldhamite influence. Helmia as a whole still has yet to recover its population and political influence it carried before its civil war. May Helmia one day recover to its full glory.
