Invardia

The empire that is Invardia is home to people of status and rank. Their highly advanced technology allows them to build structures taller than any other culture in the world, forming spiraling towers of incredibly elegant design. The elites reside in the tallest and most ornate structures in all of Vanquera, located in central Invardia.

In the last few decades, Invardia has started to run low on available land in their plateau. Expansions outward are becoming exponentially more difficult. Thankfully, a recent advancement in Mana technology has allowed them to start expanding vertically with floating structures and landmasses.

The currency of Invardia is the Invardium Bit, which are cubic beads of metal infused with Mana such that they stick together.

## Districts

### Estabula District

The Estabula District was attacked by Enim Aluard, their ex-Abuman.

## The Undercity

Invardia's undercity is the slums of their civilization. It is a crumbling wasteland crawling with the vagrants of Invardia.

## History

Invardia's history is rich and vast, involving countless wars among many cultures.

### Founding

Invardia was founded by Jadeth Camiern and his followers, who sought to form a haven for humanity and its upbringing in Vanquera. They built the beginnings of a great wall, which would one day come to tower above Vanquera. It was started as a monument for peace and protection in Vanquera. Thus would end the Era of Adversity.

The Jadeth Council was formed in his honor to govern and protect the city.

### The First Council's Fall

If the claims of notorious conspiracy theorists are to be believed, the first ever Jadeth Council members became corrupt, becoming Mana Deities to protect themselves. The White Lady would then confront them, defeating each of them and imprisoning them, becoming the Prisoners of Mirtragard.

### Uprising

As the city expanded and the wall grew taller and taller, Invardia continued to push with their advancements. They invented all manner of new technologies. The Jadeth Council started the Invardium Militia Legion, which would go on to serve and protect Invardia for centuries to come.

As Invardia continued to prosper, the Takari wanted to take advantage of this to allow their own civilization to grow. They placed themselves in the nearby wilderness. They would eventually become autonomous thanks to their ritualistic practice of creating Mana Deities to protect them.

The Equavir would end up being under Invardium protection without their consent, and would later come to rebel.

### Usura's Assault

Usura's Assault was an event that greatly shaped how Invardia would protect themselves from threats long into the future. While Mechabeast had attacked Invardia before, none were as pivotal as Usura's assault.

## Government

Invardia has been ruled by Jadeth Council since its founding.

#### Districts

Invardia is divided into districts, each run by their own elected Abuman.

#### Mechabeast

Mechabeast are a highly contentious subject in Invardia, swayed greatly by Invardia's history with them. In recent years, certain types of Mechabeast have slowly become incorporated into Invardium society - particularly amongst Invardia's elites - but continue to remain divisive.

#### Mana

Mana is a much less divisive topic than Mechabeast, as Mana is of regular use all across Invardia. There are still opponents of its usage, advocating for its abolishment.
