Orbochsia

Orbochsia, officially the Orbochs Duchy or Orbochs Kingdom, and later known as the Duchy of New Orbochsia, was a nation in the Orbis Minecraft server. Originally founded in 2000 BCS as a cow country in the west of the world, the Orbochsen would migrate to the northern border of Almaren after the occupation of the homeland during World War I. There, New Orbochsia would thrive for a short time before being destroyed by their Almarener hosts, forcing the remaining Orbochsen to migrate once more to eastern Khazaria in 1929 BCS, thus forming the Pastoral Confederation. Another independent Orbochs state would not exists for 321 years.
== History ==
=== Founding ===
Long ago, around 20,000 BCS, the Orbochs race of cows began to undergo a change in which they rapidly advanced in sentience. By the time Orbochsia was first formed, these cows had intellectual capabilities approaching (but notably beneath) those of the biped races of Orbis. Orbochsia was first formed by this sentient race of cows in 2000 BCS, being originally located in the plains between modern Mito and Freiburg. Over time the government formed by the cows began to lose much of its bovine identity, abandoning the traditional herd structure that existed for thousands of years in favor of feudalism. Thus, the Buleswavian elite system of feudal monarchy began to emerge over time, culminating with Duke/King (all termed "Kow" in the Orbochs language) Buleswav becoming the leader and national symbol of Orbochsia.
=== Years of Peace ===
For most of early Orbochs history, there was a general lack of activity, threats, and ambition. Orbochsia made minor diplomatic statements, such as condemning the invasion of Aeronautica by Kuhland, and officially proclaiming its ambition to own the neighboring savanna as more grazing land. This ambition would see a steady stream of Orbochs settlers enter the territory, laying the groundwork for the formation of the Third Orbochs Duchy at Stordowa over 300 years later.
=== Conflict with the Opsianokastro ===
In 1960 BCS, some local human peasants calling themselves the "Opsianokastro", supported by the Almaren Foreign Legion, launched a sudden violent rebellion in eastern Orbochsia. These rebels, dubbed "Komoonishci" by the Orbochsen, proved difficult to dislodge and split the country in two for 3 years, until an international group composed primarily of Columbians and Occidentalians aided the Orbochsen in forcing the Opsianokastro to flee east into the highland savanna. In the aftermath of the war, eastern Orbochsia was left scorched as to deny its use by the "Imperialist Orbochsen," and as such would only be reincorporated a year later in 1957 BCS.
The war left a sense of insecurity in Orbochsia, which responded by strengthening the government. "Kow" Buleswav became a more public and powerful figure, a constitution was drafted for the Duchy, and the Orbochsen would set their eyes on procuring more permanent protection from outside threats.
===Vassal of Occidentalis and World War I===
Seeing the rise of Occidentalis as a regional hegemon and fearing for future safety, the Orbochs Duchy requested to be formally vassalized by the state in 1953 BCS. For some years the agreement was mutually beneficial, as Orbochsia was guaranteed and followers of Merpism within Occidentalis had their faith confirmed and spread to new heights. This changed however, when war came to Orbochsia.
World War I was a global conflict in Orbis that saw Orbochsia drawn in as an Occidentalian vassal in 1940 BCS.
During the First World War, the Orbochs mustered a mighty army of 500 Orbochsen, which followed the Occidentalians request to defend Rome. As such, Orbochsia came under Columbian occupation, and the Battle of Rome saw all Orbochs forces perish in the city's defense, resulting in the Orbochs Genocide. 
After these events, the Orbochsen renounced allegiance to Occidentalis and proceeded to migrate to the north of their former (and future) enemies in Almaren, forming the Duchy of New Orbochsia with Buleswav maintaining his control. There, hopes of a new homeland would be formed.
===New Orbochsia===

In 1938 BCS, a year after the end of World War I, the Orbochsen migrated across Wozgoria to end up in the plains and forest north of Valimar. The migration did not encompass all Orbochsen, and indeed many had spread far already; the framework for the first radiation of herds began. In New Orbochsia, feudal legends were enforced, the Orbochs tongue was given standardization, and reconciliation began with the hostile powers in Rovoda, Columbia, and Almaren. This all stopped however when, upon learning of dissent growing among the Orbochsen, Almaren set the plains of New Orbochsia ablaze and slaughtered the migrants, including Buleswav. After the slaughter, the remaining Orbochsen would cross the western strait and settle in Khazaria, forming a state within the newly formed Pastoral Confederation and providing the basis for the future Herd of Cazaryi. There, the Orbochsen would remain nation-less for over 300 years.
===Legacy=== 
In the short term, Orbochsia and New Orbochsia were of local importance and legacy. In Wozgoria the Merpist faith continued to grow and Orbochs communities persevered. The cattle were destitute, but still maintained their dignity and an aspect of a homeland. Of importance to this intermission in state-hood and the Merpists was the appearance of a bovine spirit during World War II, which was reported by both enemy and ally of the Orbochsen to be rallying the Occidentalian troops at numerous battle sites. The true identity of the flying spirit and the laws governing their appearance would remain poorly understood, but Orbochs mysticism would heavily relate this event to the return of Buleswav several centuries later, citing it as proof of a divine realm and that Buleswav was among it.
In the long term, Orbochsia left an even greater legacy that would span across worlds. The Orbochs Duchy was the first cow country ever to occur and would be the ultimate ancestral civilization of all following cow countries. In this way, despite its continued defeats, sorrows, and fairly insignificant geopolitical position, it would be among the greatest success stories of Orbis.
== Territory ==
Orbochsia was originally comprised of the prairies between Freiburg and Mito in Wozgoria. New Orbochsia would significantly relocate, instead being located along the periphery of Almaren in central Orbis.
