Melcheezor

== Melcheezor ==
 Melcheezor (Saiännic: Melczēzomoä) is a city-state from the Doryi culture. It lies directly to the north of the Kingdom of the Gates, originally sharing a long border with the Wergom's northernmost provinces in Old Doriya. In the Gate Realm, it is simply refered to Greater Doryia or for commoners just Doryia. It also shares a border along the Doryikina ((Saiännic: Doryisai), the River Doriya, with the Doryi kingdom of Chazor. 
== History ==
Melcheezor is a surviving city of a previous Doryi state, recorded to history either as The Three Cities (Saiännic: Taimoǟt), but was otherwise known as the Kingdom Of Mergara. The Kingdom of Mergara controlled all of the plains north of the Doryikina. Following the Fourth Vidstossi-Doriyan War against the Kingdom of the Gates under Pelir in the mid 200s ABV, much of the kingdom was annexed into the Kingdom of the Gates. The Kingdom of Mergara was itself the successor state to the original Alharid Empire, which was destroyed by the emergent Gate Kingdom after the Battle of Zora.However, after the Kingdom of the Gates' defeat at the Battle of Erýaz, the Kingdom of the Gates fell into a period of civil war known as The Anarchy. Seizing upon this opportunity, Gabolak, king of Melcheezor, forged an alliance with the neighbouring Doryi kingdom of Chazor, and invaded the northern kingdom of the gates ~310 ABV with the help of the Doriyannized Rothinji mercenary general Galáspatri.
The war led to a massive expansion of Melcheezor and Chazor, and all the ancestral lands north the gate mountains were reclaimed by the doriyan armies. Gabolak re-established the great city of Dor was re-established upon the banks of lake Doriya.
A shrewd politician, Gabolak then installed Galáspatri as the "Prince of Zora" to rule over the southern province and provide a military buffer against the Kingdom of the Gates.
Following a coup by Gabolak's son (and current king of Melcheezor) Abzalem ~330 ABV, Melcheezor and Chazor are currently ruled by the same king, and for all intents and purposes are a single nation. 
As of the year 340 ABV, Abzalem has renewed conflicts with the Kingdom of the Gates in the Sixth Vidstossi-Doriyan War.
