Drokeseon

Flag

**Drokeseon** is a semi-independent Kingdom of Skjoldrbrodir. It is located within the Shattered Sea in the continent of Plagos, and due to its location, it is surrounded by icebergs and to the north, mainland Plagos to the west, and shares a landborder with the City of Feneyjar to the south.

## History

### Founding

Drokeseon was founded by Adri Floyen, Medicalend and Kuro in late 2021. The sea that Drokeseon was founded in was de jure Skjoldrbrodir, and thus was quickly annexed by Skjoldrbrodir. Drokeseon was originally quite small, with its only features being a wall, a mining area, a military area, a community storage house, and an apartment for citizens to live in. This, with the arrival of new players, would soon change.

### First expansion

Drokeseon quickly gained population, which forced Adri, the main leader at the time, to build more houses and also create a market area. Drokeseon was also not connected to the ocean floor which made it highly unstable, so the wall that surrounded Drokeseon was built to continue to the ocean floor. The growing population in addition needed food, so a farm was created in another location in the shattered sea to bring resources and food to the city.

### Gallus's arrival

For a while, Drokeseon had been mostly uninterested in religion or really having much of a unique culture, but that all changed when Gallus came down. Medicalend, Lemurmartin, Chariz Lucio, and Mythicalaxolotl had been going about their day living in Drokeseon, when all of a sudden, a chicken came down from the sky. The chicken spoke cryptic messages and made the impossible occur in the sky and on the Earth. Medicalend wrote down what the chicken was saying, and it was eventually realized that his name was Gallus. Gallus gave several unique items to observers, and told them to sacrifice a king, a llama, a pig, and a cow. Adri was not at the event but could hear all Gallus was saying, as he was mining. He rushed up to the surface and saw Gallus right before he left. Adri, Medical, Lemur, Chariz, and Mythical due to this event created Gallism, which became the main religion of Drokeseon. The large temple seen in the corner of central Drokeseon is the official temple of Gallism.

### A Brief Independence

Drokeseon had long wanted to leave Skjoldrbrodir, and after the collapse of the Sapphire Commonwealth, saw an opportunity. Drokeseon quickly prepared, but Skjoldrbrodir was somewhat caught off guard. Several people in both nations were accused of being spies, but ultimately, no swords were clashed. Through diplomacy it was decided that Drokeseon would be semi-autonomous and could potentially leave in the future if they had enough money, however it is still undecided if Drokeseon citizens will want independence again.

### Second Expansion

Several people in Drokeseon had been eager for an independence war, that if won would allow Drokeseon to expand past its current borders, but since that never happened, Drokeseon's size and population remained stagnant. Chariz had seen that Drokeseon was starting to stunt, so he built a cobblestone ring around Drokeseon to try and take expansion into his own hands. Adri saw this and decided to help using his vast resources, which caused Drokeseon's size to essentially double, leading way to more areas for people to live in. The Second Expansion currently isn't done, as the new massive wall created to protect Drokeseon is not finished. This expansion has also caused Drokeseon to now share a land border with Feneyjar, and Adri has also decided to hold a building competition to design housing for Drokeseon.

## Government

Drokeseon's government style is complicated, as it is technically ruled by the Jarl of Skjoldbrodir. Drokeseon, on the autonomous level is a constitutional monarchy, however the king still has most of the power. The ranks of Drokeseon go from Kings, who rule over the Kingdom, Prime Ministers, who are democratically elected but have to answer to the King, Dukes, who lead Duchies, Counts, who lead Counties, Borons, who lead Cities, and finally Imperial Citizens who lead Forts. As of now though, much of this system hasn't been put in place as Drokeseon currently only has one city which is the capital city, making most titles void.

## Language

Drokeseon has many spoken languages due to its location near the center of the Shattered Sea, however cameleon is the main one used for communication. Drokeseon is a mix of several languages, including labellish, skjoldish, syvansian, and more, but uses a few uniquely cameleon words used for grammar.
