The Empire of Iyadtium

The Flag of the Empire

## Overview

The Empire of Iyadtium is a nation located within the heart of Iaddithis, at the south-center of Aelisandri. Iyadtium was first founded by six individuals, them being Alternis, Lettcor, EmiNoob, TheCrossbower, SirLegolot and Ethank under The Addian Confederation. They were all nation leaders, soldiers and diplomats who came together with a shared set of ideas: prosperity, peace, freedom and justice for their and surrounding lands. This singular set of ideals would unite them all together, and thus followed the creation of The Addian Confederation. Its capital, Nova Domus, has been an economic centre for the subcontinent of Addia for most of its existence, and has often been given the title "The Shining Jewel". However, soon after the formation of Addia, heavy internal and external political pressure resulted in the shaken founders attempting to reorganize. In addition, upon the recent realization of Yad (a deceased Elder Goddess) having been the mother to all gods and cultures, the founders picked up their broken confederation and turned it into a special kind of empire. Contingent upon the unified theogeny of their faith, and mirroring it with the singularly empowered monarch Iyadticzar/Primiyadt , no more would man, nation or world disrupt their stability.

## Government

Coming from different nations with different ideologies, no one government would work for everyone. And so instead, the founders created a new government that fit the scope of one of the largest empires on the continent. The scholars of former Addia came together to study various political systems, as well as their newly found religious texts. With all of this together, the Iyadtine Constitution was drafted. Upon the revelation that Yad unified most of their religions, it was decided that the role of Primiyadt would never be removed, and they would act as the face for the empire. He would be succeeded by the next Inkarnate of his Goddess the roles of Kantarios, or Secundiyadt, as designated regent. Voldtashkrei, Aherriudtico, Stadtensaani, and Auckoloss are all roles given by the Primiyadt, or by some unanimous decision, and are kept for as long as their duties are fulfilled faithfully and lawfully. The religious role of Ganzseher has been maintained, as to ensure religious orthodoxy and manage interpretation. Regional Representatives and Magistrates are all roles only given by the higher ups, and administer their lands

## History

### The Origins of Iyadtium

#### An Imposter

The story of the The Empire of Iyadtium begins with a person. Someone posing as Flav Syrius Maj, the former First Consul of Albia, announced that he would recreate the fallen nation. Although the poser soon disappeared, without this singular event taking place, six unique individuals would have never of met. Some believe that the imposter was a human depiction of fate, who emerged with the soul purpose of bringing the founders together. An idea was proposed. An idea of creating a peaceful and prosperous empire to help maintain order in the world. This idea soon took form as the Straeia Inceptum Empire. However, without any sort of structure, the empire could not support it's own weight and thus collapsed. With nothing but a fallen dream in front of them, there was decision to be made. Give up on their ideas or fight for what they believed in. Deciding on to give it one more chance, six individuals who cam from all areas of the world, came together to protect their empire. These six people would soon be referred to as the "founding fathers of the confederation" after creating the soon to be named Addian Confederation.

#### Creation of Addian Monarchism

The unification of Gewebe, Prima Lvx, Lordania, Solaris and Lionport officialised the creation of the newly formed empire. Having already spent time creating a government for Gewebe, Lettcor Volkost spent day and night in creating an ideology that would be able to hold the full power of the Addian Confederation. It was built around the ideas of giving power to the people and freedom for all. Carefully crafted together with the faults of the past, along with the combined efforts of the other five founders known as Alternis, Tramonto, Ethank, TheCrossbower and SirLegolot, the government was officially created and the confederation was born. With everything now set in motion, positions begin getting handed out. The role of Emperor was given to Alternis, the Region Representative of Lordania. First Consul was given to Lettcor Volkost, Region Representative of Gewebe. General and Head of Economy was given to Karma and Ethank. With everything now done, the confederation was ready to take the world stage by swarm...

> *`"Greetings all. I come before you today with a new empire. As most already know, the Staeia Inceptum Empire collapsed, due to internal affairs and a lack of structure. We were faced with a decision to make, leave behind the empire or fight for what we believed in. How far would we go for an idea? The idea of bringing prosperity, peace, freedom and justice back into the world. The idea of injecting life and excitement into the dull streets we have all grown used to. And so, six individuals came together. All with different ideologies but yet with the same idea. And thus, The Addian Confederation was born.`*

Our goals only involve peace and prosperity for not just us, but the wider world as well. However, we will fight for our cause if it is required. To those who still refuse to look past their blurred vision, look at us as a golden goose. Kill us, and you will be fed for a day at most. However, help us thrive, and we will take you into the future. We have all become stuck and stagnant in the past, I say no longer! Addia has been there from the beginning of time, and no matter what you do, we will be the last word in the book of life.`*

#### Reformation into The Empire of Iyadtium

Problems began to plague the confederation. After the sudden departure of the emperor Alternis, leadership was passed onto Lettcor. But internal problems would soon face the nation. Citizens, town leaders and even ministers began leaving, believing the nation to be dead and the Addian Dream to be over. Despite this, the former Addian government continued forwards, however, with their final reiteration. During this time, they invited the newly freed Ganzseher De'moda to administer the state religion. They transformed themselves into The Empire of Iyadtium, a nation based on the Iyadtine Constitution, and inspired by the revelation that Yad, is the birthplace of their gods and cultures. Through this, they detached from their strictly Addian customs, forsook the originally Addian vision, and sought to generate an inclusive and powerful cultural identity for a more stable state. With a written constitution, new flag and adjusted government, the now Empire of Iyadtium was ready to bring in their first elected administration.
