Dun Draigath

== Combined Draigath Syndicates ==
The Combined Draigath Syndicates are a small nation on the East Coast of Central Sparwood, comprised of the Archipillago Islands and a small mainland holding, known as The Bogside. 
=== Early History ===
Dun Draigath was formed when Kiathe travellers landed on the isle of Pill off the coast of Sparwood in 1675 ASC. These immigrants mingled with Burgamerian and Zrykan natives. It moved for independence as an Iglooist Theocracy known as Iglotia, until a large influx of new, atheist members occured, causing them to seperate the church and state. This change in governance lead to the budding nation renaming to Dun Draigath. Their independence movement continues, until they integrate into the nation of Tovarisha as a region in 1689. This was on the condition that their culture, land and traditions would remain. Later during this time, the town of Redspire was integrated into Dun Draigath.
=== Late History ===
Eventually, Tovarisha collapsed, and Dun Draigath became part of Burgamere. Under Burgamere, their luck took a turn for the worse. The town of Vladingrad, led by Michial, was founded on the Inish Leath peninsula. After forming its own region, it took swathes of Draigath land with the help of the Burgamerian government, including Redspire. Seeing this as an infringement of their agreement of integration, the Draigath people began to protest.
=== The Great Famine and Black Age ===
With the secession of Vodistria, Dun Draigath lost its sacred farming and hunting lands of Clunath. This lead to the Great Famine, in which it lost two thirds of its total population. These bodies can be found in The Catacombs under New Pill. This loss lead to the Black Age. In this time, the streets of New Pill were barren, and the crops withered. The city eventually became overgrown, and it seemed Dun Draigath's time was over.
=== Independence ===
Then, the Revolutionary Army of The Black Rose, or RABR, returned to their home of Dun Draigath, and reforged it. This event, known as the Pillan Liquidation, is widely recognized as the beginning of the independence of Dun Draigath. Mere years after their return, in 1746 ASC, Dun Draigath declared independence as the Free States of Dun Draigath, which became a region of Valondor.
=== The Draigath Civil War ===
Once Burgamere had been defeated, the question of government was posed. Debates over government lead to partisan fighting, and eventually the Cavalier's Party staged a coup against the ruling Dun Draigath Socialist Coalition. This led to a civil war, in which the United Draigath Communes, Draigath Free States, Movement Anarquisté Draigath, and Iglotia all fought for dominance over the government. Eventually a peace treaty was signed (The Portsmouth Agreement), declaring victory for the Cavaliers. This led to the eventual recreation of the Draigath Free State.
=== Independence and Luscovy ===
Eventually, Valondor entered into a war with Tortuga. Dun Draigath was part of Valondor at that time, and many citizens expressed concern. The representatives of The Portsmouth Agreement were recalled, now as the Draigath Aonta. They motioned for independence, and, when the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk heard of this independence movement, they moved to annex the nation. After a long conflict, some members of the Aonta decided to agree to this annexation. In response, Taoiseach Oisin published the following:
==== The Draigath Letter to The Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk ====
Pirate devils! 
Greetings, hands of ill fate! What awful rogues you are, who cannot conquer the fisherman of the Iceberg Sea! The Boggers shit and your army eats! Swine of Vodistria, goat-thief of Aiur, runt of Tortuga, flatfish of the Rough Sea, oaf of The Bogside, Vericovian swine and Zefranian dog! You were a fool to attempt to bring Draigath sons beneath your yolk! You shall not shovel shit for Draigath brothers! Begonst with thee from our lands, Tsaljan dogs, and sink thou rotted ships upon the harsh rocks of Inish Maiach! May the gulls pick your bones! 
With love, the Draigath Aonta.
With this statement, they joined the nation of Luscovy as an autonomous region.
==== The Draigath Spring ====
After Dun Draigath joined Luscovy, it was reorganized into the Grand Duchy of Dun Draigath. Leading to an Era of Peace and Porsperity. This period ended when Burgamerian Loyalists, attacked them, culminating into the Battle of New Pill, a Draigath Victory. This started a Bloody Guerilla War, between Burgamere and Dun Draigath, called, "The Draigath Spring". Where the Aonta deployed the Draigath People's Liberation Fianna. The Burgamerian soon attacked Bhogside, culminating into the Battle of Bhogside, a Major Draigath Defeat, which led the occupation of Vykograd. This event led into the last major engagement of the war, the Siege of Killavona, which resulted in many Draigath casualties. Due to this, Dun Draigath soon had to admit defeat to the Burgamerians, and lost the War. This Restarted the Burgamerian Civil War in its Second Half.
==== The DunSoc Conferences ====
After the Death of the Archduke, by Burgamerian Loyalists, the Grand Duchy collapsed,and was replaced by the Provisional Government of Dun Draigath. The Aonta was then reorganized into the Black Rose Regency Council, They soon returned stability and industry, back into the Nation. Immediately afterwards, they held the DunSoc Conferences among prominent council members, who debated for weeks on end, finally ending in an agreement. Leading to the creation of DunSoc, establishing a Command Economy in Dun Draigath. While declaring the Draigath Paganism as the Official State Religion. This would lead to the reformation of the Aontic Council. Founding the Socialist State of Dun Dragiath.
Latest Happenings
Recently Dun Draigath, or should I say the Combined Draigath Syndicates. Had some unexpected events happen. Now let me help all of you folks understand... A couple of months ago from the time of writing this (November 10th 2023) ASO formed, ASO stands for: Avonic Security Organization was, and still is a pretty important organization for war, important builds and of course government discussion, not important for now... So later from the ASO formation, something happened, Lyumos Kalenich led a coup against the main government of Luscovy. He was successful! Which are very happy news for the Dun nation and it's citizens. Now this lasted for only 3 weeks, after that the then-council voted, Now let me clarify that we think this voting result was deeply unfair. Anyways a then government figure, Eevee got voted in charge, now, this was no biggie at the time! We would just go back to normal. No, no, no. DrFrog after 1 month, got New Pill. Our capital, very,very,VERY sad news for the Dun nation. We had been betrayed... Backstabbed as one might say. Now from what I can recall after that me (Jimmon, the Lemon Man) and ssupaa (The mayor of killavona) fortified all of killavona all the doors were incased in blackstone, heavy doors, as well as heavy reinforcement. Now we knew that, that was enough to stop Drfrog and the brainless CrashSyndicate, but, no. Constant monitoring, everything. We even got most of the abandoned village nearby. Now this, this was safe, luckily no major happenings occurred we just moved to eldham as refugees and stayed in the Republic of Razuni, now this was no long stay, 1 month later, Oot Otóż The Taoiseach. Made dun, into. The Combined Draigath Syndicates. And that's where we are today.
