1/3Zokkiberg was port city and as they claimed a colonial empire with owning small coastal claims across the Kaladinian Sea. The city was lead by Hans Warlock who his people would see as a person with godly traits, the city state would would start off poor and the only way on gaining money was to capitalize off their big coastal farm and trade with the near by tribes by selling wheat and now discovering fishing sold cod. The city state then got rich in Iron and items traded by the trades and Zokkiberg want to expand their trades so they traded with small tribes on islands and other land masses across the sea. With their amazing sailors and great sailing skills they became the most powerful in naval abilities in the region and conquered islands to show their power.

### Adara

They stole food, items and diamonds from near by tribes and changed their iron armor to diamond and would repeat until they got stacked from diamonds. They entered their golden age in just hours with their good pvping and fighting skills taught by their leader Amber king, the city state would end up giving their top fighters netherite armor and weapons. They didn't need to expand they had all they needed just but they had one problem, they had a huge lack in animal food which was very useful in fighting.

### Northton

1/2Northton was a calm peaceful city of people building small desert housing and making music that would be used today to show the culture of Bernard Land Empire, most popular of all the songs they've made was the Koiska (Koy-ska) a song made with iron horns & tubes and wood smashing into each other. The Koiska would also in the future have a dance that would be performed at family events and or huge events.

Northton wasn't that much of a city state that would want to fight but still had a small army. Leader Doug Voual would send his people to mine for materials to trade with Zokkiberg and Northton would spend the cash on Adaran fighters to help in any battles Northton took place in. Northton shared good relations with Zokkiberg and Adara;

### Pavo

Pavo would start off as a city state then would be forced into becoming a tribe then found land for a new city state in the north in modern day volkard where they built a huge snake where they believe it would watch over them and keep them safe from this weird magical land (that magical land would be the newly discovered snowy rocky lands never seen before). Almost everything from the city state would be destroyed or lost but the snake and chiefs house.

## History of City States

### Zokkiberg and Adara relations

Both city states were very different and did not see each other fondly, and after hearing Adara was killing and stealing resources owned by tribe that Zokkiberg was trading both city states relations went to a all time low and both sides declared that both sides were to blame for the aggression. Zokkiberg claimed that Adara was attacking the main way Zokkiberg made their money with Adara stealing from tribes who would trade with Zokkiberg. Adara was claiming Zokkiberg would be threatening the safety of their people with Zokkiberg claiming to colonize the Adaran land. Both sides knew Adara was lying but Adara kept making problems for Zokkiberg with disputing their empire and killing a unknown player who held 5 golden blocks returning to Zokkiberg, that would be the last straw.

### First Bernard War

Zokkiberg had declared Adara as a enemy of the world and forced their best friend Northton (who was friendly with both nations) into one union called The Bernard Horde. Adara trained their army and was set to fight a army of 19 people (Which was a lot at the time and Bernard Horde also had support from tribes) with their 6 people army.

Adara and Zokkiberg and Northton diplomats held a meeting in Adara and couldn't chose where the battle would take place in, the fighting and disagreement would lead everyone leaving the meeting and after the meeting Adara doing a surprise raid on Zokkiberg. The Bernard Horde seeing a Adaran army coming to Zokkiberg calling their full army and a battle would take place in Zokkiberg. Adara had 6 men and Bernard Horde has 19 men but The Bernard Horde were getting mass killed by the reason that they weren't good at land fighting. Adarans ended up winning the battle and the war and set the terms of: The Bernard Horde will be disbanded and Zokkiberg will lose all their over seas colonies / land and would keep their city.

### Second Bernard Horde & Second Bernard War

Zokkiberg and Adara would slowly improve relations after the war but both found a common enemy of their huge neighbor that surrounded Northton, That empire was The Berish Commonwealth. The Berish Commonwealth would send bandits to steal from Northton traders, Northton need a way to stop this so they call on their allies (Adara and Zokkiberg) and held a meeting in Zokkiberg to discuss how to stop The Berish Commonwealth.

One day as Adara men were in Northton they saw a bandit killing players in the city and jumped to help them and killed bandit but The Berish Commonwealth claimed Bernard Horde had killed one of their citizens and Zokkiberg not wanting war sent ex mayor Hans to Berish Commonwealth to calm down the issue but that wouldn't do anything. The Berish Commonwealth would declare war against The Bernard Horde; The battle would happen at Northton at 2:00 pm CST and Adara and Zokkiberg troops would lose the war against The Berish Commonwealth and The Bernard Horde would be annexed into The Berish Commonwealth.

### Aftermath

Zokkiberg would be almost fully demolished ordered by the High Lord of Berish Commonwealth for payback. Adara would have a plan, they didn't want to be taken over by a unstable union so they sent Amber's (mayor of Adara) daughter to become a high rank in the union. She would become Mae King and would soon plan to make a Third Bernard Horde...
