## History

### Founding

The stars shine bright in the night sky, though one shone above the rest.

Arcturi ruled over it.

From before the shift to Keranos, where Flogos was consumed and Keranos rose, Arcturi had plans for the Kingdom of Arcturus.

After the great world separation, the habitants of Flogos were transported into Keranos, landing in a spawn not so different from one of Flogos, or so did Rudher think. Sweeping his eyes through the new landscape, a sense of nostalgia and deja vu rushed over Rudher, yet it was completely unfamiliar. Completely without direction, he looked in despair into the reddish sky of dusk, of which he saw a bright star, shining before the others, urging him on to follow.

With a sense of direction, Rudher began to travel through forests and fields, mountains and rivers. He at last came to a halt at an island, with shining waters in the moonlight and hardy trees, where the star faded back into the darkness of night. Monsters surrounded him, the first of Arcturi's trials, so he buried himself in a hole within the ground and waited for night to pass.

When the day came, Rudher decided to worship the star, Arcturi, and named his newfound nation after it, the Kingdom of Arcturus. Some of its initial citizens were familiars of Rudher from the late Magnum Empire.

By Arcturi's command, the island became the great capital city of a great nation to come. The first building built was a temple to Arcturi, blessed by Arcturi himself in human form.

### Early Days

The firsts of the citizens were believed to not live in huts, houses or trees, but living in holes, after the manner of Rudher's first night. They used simple tools of iron and diamonds, simple yet steadfast, and advanced by mining and chopping down large trees.

### The First War

The Kingdom of Arcturus was allied with the Asbonian Empire at the time of the declaration of war, which was about Ocean's illegal occupation of lands owned by the Asbonian Empire in order to annoy OneBraincell. Thus, the Kingdom of Arcturus stood beside the Asbonian Empire in preparation for war against Soulaan.

However, this preparation in the war was ill-purposed, as Arcturus was not informed that the war was going to be settled by a duel between the best fighters on either side. Thus, Arcturus was not able to contribute any of its fighters, and logged on to a shock when it was said that Soulaan had won. This war greatly soured Arcturus' relationship with Soulaan, following Arcturus' refusal to sign the treaty.

### Feud with TahaRazing

TahaRazing was one of the many helpers Rudher brought on for the First War, most of which created lasting impacts and shaped Arcturus to be what is known today. Although it was already known to Rudher that Taha may be dishonest, wavering in loyalty, or disobedient to orders, Taha was played an important part in the beginnings of the Kingdom. This resulted in Taha staying in the Kingdom, despite his actions such as trying to claim the entire world, and claiming a far-away place that was hotly contested by two nations.

Over time, Arcturus has grown considerably in all aspects, with recent developments overshadowing the ones done by Taha in the early days. This overall meant that the Kingdom was no longer dependent on Taha as a person, having more useful and more loyal members. On the third of December 2022, Taha tried again claiming that far-away place that was once rejected, himself labelling it as a 'misunderstanding'. This resulted in him threatening to leave unless he "got more rights", of which he was helped on his way out and kicked.

After this, Taha started the Carsigian Federation, later becoming the greatest enemy to the national security of the Kingdom of Arcturus and the Necro-Arcturus Empire.

### Merge with Vincentopium

Rudher's ties with Vin go back all the way to Flogos, where Rudher was found by Vin, lost and lonely. Rudher was warmly received into the Kingdom of Ghosts, and later the Magnum Empire, establishing a close relationship with Vin. After Vin's demise and eventual resurrection, of which the nation of Vincentopium was created, a strong alliance reminiscent of the old days was formed. It was through this alliance that ultimately merged together the two nations, and formed the Necro-Arcturus Empire. This decision was widely believed to be the best decision in Arcturus history for the political stability of the nation, and the eventual mass development of the nation. It later became the "Crown of Arcturus" in the NAE.

## Politics

Arcturus was generally an absolute monarchy, with a royal councillor to help the King make decisions.
