ᄅ⥀EๅๅE∀ ⥀ĮγKट | ευλογημένο φως | Luz Abençoada | Blessed Light

### Language

Lightian (official), Portuguese, Greek

The **Light Nation** (Portuguese: ***Nação da luz*** | Greek: ***ελαφρύ έθνος*** (*elafrý éthnos*) | Lightian: ***⥀ĮγKट NɑटĮON***) is an island nation located near the Darkness Nation, which is also an island. The Light Map is located in the center of the country, and it's a region of the capital city *Sol*.

This nation is notorious for once being a "glorious" empire called the Holy Empire that had the most powerful army on Elemental Versial for over three centuries. Even today, most Lightians miss the days of the Empire, and still deny the many atrocities commited by them during those old days.

Most Lightian movies, series, and comic books that do not take place in the present day take place in the Holy Empire at its height as a beautiful land with ridiculously great living conditions, something most nations in Elemental Vesial condemn, especially the Water and Nature nations, which were once puppets of the Empire. The Aurora Nation isn't seen very positively by the Lightians, mostly for them being the main reason the Empire fell.

Full Name:

**Constitutional Republic of Light**

## History

### Foundation (1200 BC)

In 1200 BC, people in the twin islands of modern Light and Darkness started to gain the powers of Light and Darkness. The Light elementians had thus founded the Light Nation at the same day the Dark elementians founded the Darkness Nation. After that, the only nations in Elemental Versial was Light, Darkness and Space. The Space Nation is the older than both, being founded in 1725 BC.

### Construction of the Tomb of Rebirth (258 AD)

The Light elementians had been believing that a God was owning the universe and that he created Elemental Versial, so they did built a giant pyramid called the Tomb of Rebirth in 258 AD to make riots about that God in the past. *[more information needed]*

### The Beginning of the Imperial Light (1496)

By the early 1490s, there was a large wave of protests seeking the overthrow of Ikrya IX, as his rule was very unpopular amongst the Lightian people. This eventually led to the overthrow of the monarchy in August 1496 by Adzevo Scekter, the leading figure of the protesters, who crowned himself as Adzevo I and transformed the country into an expansionist empire, that, according to him, would bring glory and prosperity to the nation, although the Empire was quite autocratic and repressive throughout all of its history.

### The Empire (1496-1835)

#### Advancing the army

In 1501, advanced unique weapons were built and the emperor started to invest in the army to increase the number of soldiers. After that, the Holy Empire became the strongest nation on Elemental Versial.

#### Economy boost

Some years after the imperial overthrow, the Light Nation's economy skyrocketed due to benefits of a extremely powerful army, employment and advance in technology. It was considered the best nation to live there after.

#### Expansion

The Holy Empire, after it was fully ready to expand in 1506, started to expand itself into continental Kounia, conquering the ethnic groups who control the Water and Nature elements, as in order show triumph over any nation, and, in 1639, the empire reached its greatest extent, owning the entire north part of current Nature and Water nations (both were puppets at that time) and a small part of current Aurora Nation.

### Creation of two puppets (1635)

In 1635, the Light Nation's imperial council decided to create two puppet/vassal states being these Nature and Water Nation. These vassals later expanded. In 1655, a referendum was held in both puppet states if they should become fully independent or not. The referendum was deemed illegal by Erolak III, the Lightian emperor, which led to a war of independence of both nations that lasted for nearly two years. The war was quite costly for the Empire, as the Water and Nature nations fought in guerilla groups, and to avoid further losses, the Empire gave the countries independence in 1658, which left its native population quite disappointed. It is widely accepted that this war marked the beggining of the Empire's downfall.

### War between Darkness Nation (1772 - 1778)

LN and DN had been huge rivals by the 18th century. After both nations sabotaged the ancient works of each other, LN ended up declaring war against DN, and this was one of the deadliest wars on Elemental Vesial at the time. The enormous concentration of powers and magic from both nations had caused the building of large weapons that could kill a significant number of soldiers at a time, and, because LN's weapons were far more advanced than DN's weapons, LN ended up winning the war at 1778.

### Founding of Spectrum Nation (1775)

*Go to Spectrum Nation to see how it was founded.*

### Wizard's Drawing (1802)

By August 1802, a group of six wizards, each from a different nation, has visited the Tomb of Rebirth on Sol. The wizards were curious about the magic and nations that could appear in the distant future, so they've drawn their ideas of future elements on the empty board at the tomb, and since 1805, these drawings were known as the Wizard's Drawing.

### Great Holy War (1831-1835)

Ever since 1806, Aurora Nation had the strongest army on Elemental Versial. On 1831, Aurora Nation feared a comeback of the Holy Empire to dominate areas of it's nearby coast and have the strongest army again, and then created the Anti-Light coalition, along with Nature, Water and Explosion nations to destroy the Holy Empire once and for all. The Anti-Light Coalition had then declared war on the Holy Empire unexpectedly in the 17th of September, but the Empire's armies were already ready, beginning on the advantage, due to the fact that Water and Nature nations were weaker than the Lightians, but the Explosion Nation had effective war tactics against the Lightians and the Aurora Nation was stronger than the Light Nation and thus started to make a comeback in April 1833 due to strong armies and the Explosion Nation had giant vehicles with long cannons of cannonballs filled with gunpowder inside, making deadly explosions. The Darkness Nation joined the Coalition in 1834 for revenge of losing the Light-Darkness war in 1778.

### The Fall of the Empire (1835)

Eventually, most of the Holy Empire's best soldiers were lost in the war and the Aurora Nation rammed into the Lightians and besieged Sol, thus the other nations arrived in the island and the Holy Empire's army was completely destroyed and the population of Sol was slaughtered by the Polarians, with only 21% of the population surviving. Sol was completely destroyed due to severe bombardements of the Anti-Light Coalition. The Holy Empire was abolished in the Treaty of Sunburg and the entire western half of the Light Nation was occupied by the Polarians (they also occupied Sol), Explodians and Dark for 5 years. The capital of Light was moved to Brightnopolis during the occupation.

The ancient buildings of the Light Nation were restored after the Polarians left Sol.

### Rebuilding of Sol (1841 - 1850)

In 1841, the government executed the *ΛῸOՂEԷट ᄅῸĮγKटEN* (Project Brighten) with it's objective to rebuild all of Sol that was destroyed by the Polarian Army. The reconstruction took 9 years and it ended with success.

### Elemental League Founding (1889)

In 1889, the Light Nation had the idea of creating an union of all nations together to destroy evil empires to save other planets. A vote was created for the idea and the results were:

* Yes: 57%
* No: 43%

The Elemental League (or Elemental Union) was then founded and most nations joined it until all nations were officially in the alliance in 1904.

### Republican Overthrow (1996)

In June 1996, The Light Nation's monarchy council has been debating about a military alliance with other nations, until Max Lus, a Republican, invaded the office and overthrown the monarchy, and thus the Light Nation became a Constitutional Republic and still is until today.

### The Secret Pact (2000)

On April 2000, the Light Nation and Angel Nation signed a top secret military pact for them to trade weapons for war and for both nations to be very powerful. Both nations have the most advanced airplanes in the world due to that pact.

## Cities

The capital city of the Light Nation is **Sol**, and it's full of high-technologic stuff and has large skyscrapers at its center. It's also the home of the Light map, on which the Tomb of Rebirth (the pyramid) was constructed in 258, and the villages in the map are also ancient structures of the Light Nation. They are well preserved against sandstorms to not destroy the structures. In fact, there are a lot of ancient villages around the center city.
