Aladar Regency

The **Aladar Regency** is a large nation on the continent Havønea. It is predominantly inhabited by Humans and Elves and is led by the Royal Aladaria Family. The capital city is Aldørtria which contains many districts including the Royal district where the Royal Family has their castle, gardens, grounds, and buildings.

## Brief History

The Aladar Regency was founded after settlers came from the central continents. They made beautiful cities of quartz and stone and formed the nation. The Royal Family, the Aladaria’s lead the nation though a war with Karakoa and the betrayal of the middle princess. They lead Vineathorn today along with a few other nations.

## Religion and Culture

The Aladar Regency, being predominantly inhabited by Humans and Elves, has a similar culture to that of the central nations that were first settled. Sitting on the Grand Blue it faces some issues with Piracy which has enriched its culture of respect towards the military and Royal Family who defend the coastal towns.

## Aladaran Architecture

As seen in the city of Aldørtria the main architectural style consists of quartz columns and buildings with iron and gold accents. Its roads are made of stone bricks and are upheld by the nation's architects. It is a beautiful shining area of Vineathorn.

## Symbolism

Respect is a very important part of Aladar’s culture and symbolism. Things as simple as bowing when saying hello or entering someone’s home, not smoking or drinking in public places, and remaining quiet in important buildings can prove very important to the people of Aladar. The Royal Family is extremely important to the people of Aladar even if they may be involved in nefarious activities.

## Complete History

### Migration Period

As creatures migrated East and West people gradually crossed the Grand Blue and were successful in creating colonies in present day Aladar. These colonies were made up of Human and Elven colonies who worked together to create farms and buildings and do trade.

### Aladar Establishment Period

After a large quartz deposit the size of multiple cities was discovered in the mines of the multiple colonies, a head family that controlled many farms and provinces took control and formed the Aladar Regency. This family was the Aladaria Family. They helped establish the present Aladar Regency and to build the capital with the quartz deposit that had been found. The land they had settled on was quite rich with resources and thus they flourished and the Royal Family became quite wealthy. They established good relations after exchanging gifts with Sarya. This would come to a head when Karakoa began a feud between them and their ally Sarya.

### Aladar War Period

After the nation of Karakoa went on a massive piracy expedition with many ships and stole and raided many towns in Aladar, Sarya and Aladar had had enough. They raided the cities of Karakoa while their military and leaders were gone and left not a single survivor, however they did leave a sign of who was responsible written in the blood of the citizens. This caused Karakoa to snap and to invade Sarya. After a gruesome war that lasted many months and Sarya’s collapse, Aladar successfully defended their lands and regained the land of Sarya for the Sirens. This started a new age of somewhat peace between the nations having lost resources but not land in the end.

### Aladaria Family Era

Following the war, the Aladaria Family had become quite popular within the nation and the world as they always had been but to even new heights. This would remain true after the Royal Family made an example of the middle princess of the family when she attempted to murder the youngest princess over jealousy of who was getting more attention and praise. Amélie Aladaria was sentenced to public execution via Guillotine but the Family was allowed to take out their hatred on her first. The middle Princess had never been as loved and appreciated by the other members of the family and this just made their hatred for her grow. Before she was executed she was publicly shamed as she cried for mercy and claimed she didn’t do it. Each of her toes was cut off, her right arm was cut off, all of her hair was cut off, and they sliced her back and pressed heated metal rods into her body. It has been told her screams of agony could be heard as far as 3 towns over. After this torture she was sliced across the eye by the youngest princess and in complete anguish, still claiming she was innocent, she was sent down to be executed in front of the military and citizens. However as she was being taken down the stairs she managed to slip out of her chains and grab the sword of a guard. She killed both guards and managed to flee the country on a shipping vessel carrying quartz. Nobody knows what became of her after that as the ship was attacked by pirates not long after. The Royal Family reported she died and she was condemned by the entire nation who swore never to speak of her again. This brought the next era.

### Present Era

Today the Aladar Regency is a major player in the global political and economic scene and they are extremely influential across Vineathorn. They are the leaders in the quartz industry as they export it all over Vineathorn. Their royal family stands strong leading the world with a few other countries.
