2024 Marnilas Affair

Protests for the seccession of Ospalar from the ICO and the unification of Selton and Kolodetsi into the Republic of Ospalar.

### Background

[ ] resulted in a flair up of anti-ICO sentinent across Ospalar and areas of significant Ospalan populations.

### Initial Protests

Protests broke out throughout Ospalar, Selton, and Eastern Kolodetsi against the ICO after \_. Protestors protested for a variety of goals, ranging from increased Ospalan autonomy to Ospalan secession from the ICO. Many called for the unification of Eastern Kolodetsi and Selton into the Republic of Ospalar. Following the outbreak of protests the Ospalan People's Party released a statement, in support of secession to form a socialist republic. Additionally, numerous nationalist organizations, notably the Ospalan Nation Party, the Selton Brotherly Front, and the Kolodetsi based Southwestern Unification Party.

#### Slogans

Various slogans grew popular during the protests, notably "Burger King time to leg".

### Marnilas protest

On November seventh protests broke out in Marnilas. These protests grew in size and attracted various ethnic Akarans across Kolodetsi who felt their land was stolen by an imperialist ICO. Following the breakout of the protest, the ICO increased its police presence within Marnilas, increasing tensions between the Kolodetsi government and the protesters. The protestors in response took to building blockades in several streets. These blockades were decorated with anti-ICO slogans. As the protests continued various businesses set up stalls to service the protesters with food, drink and goods decorated with anti-ICO and pro unification messaging. Some makeshift structures were built within the barricades into storefronts and sleeping quarters for protesters from outside of Marnilas.

### Outbreak of Violence

Though the protests were intense, violence did not occur until the twentieth when a drunk Ospalan man, \_\_, got into a fight with an off-duty ICO police officer. This fight grew into a large brawl, prompting police intervention. [Stuff goes here]

The Marnilas city government, surrounded by increasingly angry protestors on all sides, fortified city hall and requested government intervention.

### Storming of Marnilas City Hall

Protestors stormed Marnilas City Hall on the 24th at 9:37 AM. The protestors used a commandered truck to break through the doors of the \_\_ building, and poored in through the entrance, overpowering the poorly armed guards within the building. The mayor was taken hostage.

### Counter-Protest Action

ICO police forces entered the building from the top floor on December 1st, apprehending protestors floor by floor. 38 protestors and 2 police officer were fatally wounded during the action.

### Results

In total 82 would die in the Marnilas Affair, and over a thousand would be arrested, marking the greatest outbreak of anti-ICO violence in the historical Ospalan region since the end of the Ospalan civil war.

#### International Reactions

The Ospalan government was criticized for a lack of a condemnation of the actions. ￼
Davanporian Civil War

Belligerents|  Kingdom of Davanpor**Protected Princes:*** Principality of Feril
* Principality of Nanzkya
* Principality of Zelburg

The **Davanporian Civil War** was a succession dispute and civil war in the Kingdom of Davanpor that lasted from 1106 to 1127, though there were long periods of stalemate and *de facto* peace during that time. It began with the sudden death of Vaughn II, the reigning Vilkan monarch of Davanpor. The throne was disputed by his youthful son, Vaughn III, and warlike younger brother, Volarys I. Fighting broke out across the Davanporian lands, with Volarys eventually capturing of the stronghold Quelanpor and its environs (henceforth known as *Upper Davanpor*). Volarys was supported by the Jabeyracki Republic, while Vaughn coerced the protected princes of Feril, Nanzyka, and Zelburg to side with him. After a prolonged stalemate, Vaughn managed to mount a successful offensive against his uncle and captured Quelanpor in 1127.

The conflict exhausted the treasuries of all parties involved, leaving them vulnerable to expansion by the Principality of Polgan as well as roving armies of Kurvacki mercenaries. This vulnerability indirectly drew the region closer together in the face of a common enemy, causing the formation of the Northern Union upon Vaughn's death.

## Leadup

### Reign of Vaughn II

From 1093 until 1106, Vaughn II Vilkan- third son of Vaughn I Vilkan- served as the King of Davanpor. An inexperienced and weak King, Vaughn II never reached the massive popularity his father or any of his predecessors held. After all, Vaughn II had not been the intended successor of Vaughn I- he only managed to get the throne due to the death of his elder sister Amver Vilkan to dyssentery and the death of his elder brother Kenvil during the Battle of Jodril in 1085.

Vaughn's reign was thus lackluster and disappointing- especially considering the popularity of other members of the Vilkan Dynasty; namely Volarys I Vilkan, the fourth child of Vaughn I and an extremely popular general and statesman. Volarys was beloved across the Kingdom, but his most ardent following remained in Quelanpor- the city under his personal watch.
Battle of Ultokis

The **battle of Ultokis** (1925) was the culminating event in Ospalan reunification. It was an engagement between the Republic of Ospalar (which had been established following Airolia's withdrawal from Helinska during the Cataclysm), and the Legionary State, a warlord "squatter nation" that had been occupying ethnically Ospalan land in the Selton Peninsula. Ospalar's victory in the battle secured the downfall of the Legionary State.

The battle sparked dreams of a "Greater Ospalar", but these were stymied by the Union of O'Lear, which cut further south than expected while fighting the Legionary State and met the Ospalans near the Selton border. Not wanting a war with O'Lear, the Ospalan campaign ended.
Armchair Commander V

**Armchair Commander V** (AC5 or ACV) is a widely popular grand strategy game, made by the [country] developers [company]. One of its most well known features is its vibrant and creative modding community, which has made several highly popular mods that might as well be their own games. AC5 has also received criticism for the game attracting a variety of terminally online internet nutjobs, such as fascists, Westists, communists, Fulcrumites, Johnnies, monarchists, ultranationalists, and other fringe extremist ideologies, though the vast majority of its fanbase are normal people
Adelans

The **Adelans** were an ethnic group in Western Helinska. They were known to be diverse and independent-minded. In the 8th century, there were many Adelan cities in southwest Helinska.

Megas Alexios conquered numerous Adelan cities and absorbed them into the Despotate of Ionia. The remaining cities banded together into the Adelsrodan League in the interest of self-defense. Ionian settlers continued to extend their cultural influence in the league, creating the **Adelo-Ionian** ethnic group that eventually became the **Johninians**.

The **Battle of the Spinebelt** was a huge naval battle during the O'Leary Unification War. It resulted in the collapse of Clan Skulder's naval forces and the Aastersen blockade of Einar Island.
Angjaar Skulder

**Angjaar Skulder** was the Head of Clan Skulder and Lord of Dullen from 1869 to 1898. He presided over a brief "thaw" in relations with the Lordship of Jern and Lear during Asta's reign, due to his blood ties to her vassal Clan Algotsen. However, to dispel notions that he was "softer" than his father Ini, he also ordered a long and bloody period of Skulder-led piracy along the eastern coasts of Helinska.

After the death of Asta Aastersen, tensions rapidly re-escalated between the Aastersens and Skulders, to the point where they were on the verge of a blood feud by the time of the O'Leary Unification War.

Decade of Hate

The **Decade of Hate** was a phenomena in the politics of post-1950s democracies, most notably Eredan's but also in other countries around the world. With numerous economic, social and political issues, a resurgence in the far-right and other kinds of political extremism and bigotry arose following a period of relative stability and moderate rule, known as the "Decade of Hate". While the radicalism eventually died down, the root of the problem, that being the underlying economic, social and political issues were rarely addressed, and many analysts predict something similar to the "Decade of Hate" to reemerge after another period of peace, stability and moderate rule. This phenomena is most visible in Lesovia, which saw the collapse of the Third and Fourth Republics within a century and is currently on its Fifth.

Ospalar under ICOTAO is often included as one of the nations that experienced the Decade of Hate despite the lack of peace or moderate rule due to the extreme rise in nationalism, attempted ethnic cleansing by the Ospalan populace, Seltonese nationalism and separatism, and the initial rise in far-right party popularity in informal polls before international crackdowns. Previously-occupied nations such as Vestrax, Gresia, too, experienced a great increase in nationalism. However, all of these nations remained democracies, often with significant international coercion.
Adrianos Gareas

**Adrianos Gareas** (1866-1941) was a Kokinan Ionian merchant and Novo Gavian collaborator who founded the Retgard Steel Refinery and ruled over the factory town as his personal fief until 1926, when the factory workers unionized under Michail Orion and Gareas was forced to flee to New Granfel. He then retreated to Port-Vamosa as the Novo Gavian Bush War raged on, and died on the island penniless in 1941

International Military Intelligence Agencies

The **International Military Intelligence Agencies**, typically shortened to **IntMil** or **IMIAS**, was a loose grouping of various national intelligence services loyal to the ICO. It was founded immediately after the War of the End-Times and initially comprised the former intelligence services of the nations comprising ICO Transitional Authorities as well as that of the Lemetiate of Airolia, Republic of Regit, and Principality of Volleryn, among others.

Perhaps most notably, IMIAS uncovered findings that credibly implicated Riveria and (to an extent) other CETO member-states' intelligence services in the death of ICO Director-General Konradt Luiz, a major turning point in the independence of international systems from national polities.
Bento of Feril

**Bento of Feril** *(1052-1126)* was a Jabeyracki monarch who served as the Prince of Feril for 25 years, beginning with the death of Kalvus of Feril and ending with Bento's assassination in 1126. When Bento was initially chosen to succeed Kalvus- who had no surviving family- Feril's nobility had expected him to be a pliable puppet. But due to the Davanporian Civil War occuring just 5 years after he took the throne, Bento was able to assume far greater powers due to the ongoing war, and became a major leader on the side of Vaughn III during the war.

Under Bento, Feril's armies were greatly expanded and reformed, with new funding and policies earning Bento the loyalty of the military. Throughout the war, Bento was able to leverage his great military strength to get immense concessions from Vaughn III, with his son Bento II Feril being wedded to Princess Evenlin Vilkan- securing his dynasty in a position of great power. Bento would also be one of the biggest supporters of the war, due to his increased influence being owed solely to the conflict, and was partly responsible for keeping the conflict ongoing for over two decades.
Ionian Magecraft

**Ionian Magecraft** refers to magic in Ionia. Prior to 1906, Ionia was one of the countries where the knowledge and usage of magic was more common. Magic users fought on both sides of the Revolution, under both the Despot and the various rebel alliances. After the Fall of Ionia in 1906, occupying Monarcho-Westist forces began a systematic purge of magic users in occupied Ionia, as part of the Ionian Genocide and preexisting Polmarian anti-magic laws. Much of the surviving magic users, documents and etc. were killed and destroyed by the subsequent Cataclysm. Even after the Cataclysm, the Tarnists purged all non-Tarnist magic in Kanoria, while the Lespians, KSWP and the civil conflict between them destroyed what remained of magical knowledge in Kokinos. With the Kanorian Revolution and the purge of Tarnists by the various post-Tarnist Kanorian regimes, the last remnants of Ionian Magecraft went extinct. However, rumors of supernatural incidents and magic users still persist in the two countries, though none of these are confirmed to be true
Felix Douglas

Douglas in 1903

**Lord Felix Albert Douglas, Fourth Earl of Whittelshire** (1841-1928) was a Prithanian aristocrat, soldier and Liberal politician who served as Prime Minister of Prithania for two consecutive terms from 1902 to 1910. He is considered to be the last "great" Liberal PM of Prithanian history, as the Liberals would be replaced by the Labour Party as the main opposition to the Conservatives shortly before his death.

Like most Prithanian politicians of his time, Lord Whittelshire was an imperialist, and he continued Alexandrian imperialist and expansionist policies, such as finishing the Riveria War, crushing the Kohlesian Revolt and defeating Aazarkan in the Prithano-Aazarkan War to preserve Prithania's control over the Aazarkan Canal Zone. Due to said imperialist views, from 1906 to 1910 the Liberal government refused to allow the entry of many Helinskan refugees fleeing the Cataclysm to the Isles Centralis, instead deporting them to neighboring countries or far off colonies.

Lord Whittelshire secured his reelection in 1906 by promising to outlaw child labour and bring education opportunities for all children, promises which he kept. The Liberal government, with the support of the Labour Party, outlawed child labour in 1907 and introduced compulsory education in 1909.

At the end of his second term, Lord Whittelshire resigned from his position as party leader, leading to the Liberals losing the 1910 General Elections
Greater Kanoria (concept)

*For the former unified government, see Tarnist Republic of Kanoria or Greater Kanoria*

**Greater Kanoria** or **Pan-Kanorianism** is a nationalist concept developed in the aftermath of the Kanorian Revolution of 1938 (and again after the Imperial Conference of 1972) by some political groups. It generally advocates for the reunification of the Kanorian people under a single government, and the acquisition of various territories:

* The Astavaran lands acquired by the Tarnist Republic of Kanoria during the fall of Astavara and later lost during the Revolution
	+ Extreme variant: All former Astavaran territory (known as *Estevera* in Greater Kanorian circles), including those lands annexed by the Astavaran People's Republic, Sultanate of Kherfiyyah, Valeronian Federation, Socialist Republic of John, Di'Aamascene Accords, and Republic of Gresia
* A myriad of formerly Karostainian and Katavian lands west of the Laron River with noticeable Kanorian populations
	+ Extreme variant: The Jabeyracki Quesi Region, known as *Kuesi* in Greater Kanorian circles

* Beginning in the mid-1950s, Kanorian nationalists have begun laying claim on Kokinan territory as well (something that the Kanorians promised not to do in the early 1950s). Kanorian nationalists, especially in the South, have adopted the idea that Kanorians are also the successors of the ancient Ionians, and have thus laid claim on Kokinos' Ionian-inhabited territories (Ionescos SAZ, Serco District and North Kokinos District). These regions have also seen large Kanorian migrations due to the Fulcrum invasion and Fraternal War, and ethnic Kanorians range from being the majority to a large plurality in these regions, further "justifying" Kanorian claims.
	+ Extreme variant: the West Kokinos District, known either by the archaic Ionian name *Nyreumia* or as *East Estevera* or *New Estevera;* areas in Kokinos with significant Astavaran minorities
		- Even more extreme variant: annexation/incorporation of the entirety of Kokinos to unite the old Ionian territories. Ethnic Kokinans and Katavians are believed to either be "equally Ionian and should be Kanorianized" or "subhumans that need to be cleared to make living space for Kanorians and Ionians"

The concept of a Greater Kanoria was loosely espoused by Kanorian State Action (KSA), a minor political party that contested elections in the State of Düllsberg. Greater Kanoria became a reality in 1955(I think?) under the leadership of Osea Zana, who subsequently declared himself Emperor of the Kanorian Empire
ICO Emergency Force I

The **ICO Emergency Force I** was a provisional military coalition under the ICO created after the discovery of Project: Permanence. It intervened in the War of the End-Times on the side of the Rygard Pact and would disband in 1961 following the Treaty of Courentia, though many of its personnel would be reassigned to the various post-war nation building missions.
Hend Viskov

**Hend Viskov** was a Foleshi Liamist and later a Bishop of the Longerian Sect. He is an MP of New Jazberk (representing the Nyormonanz district) and became leader of the Liamist People's Party after the assassination of Frevin Banyel.

## History

### Early Life

Hend Viskov was born in 1883 in the city of Szendrodvarke. Due to the lack of good universities in Jazberk, Viskov was unable to pursue his dream of becoming a journalist, and instead lied about his age and enlisted in the Polmarian army at the age of 16. He did this along with his friend Arbania Viskov, and together they fought in theatres across Helinska.

### Fighting for Jazberk

In 1908, Hend Viskov and Arbania (whom he had married in 1904) returned to their home city of Szendrodvarke and joined the Jazberk military. They fought for Jazberk until its surrender to the Pelarosi Triumvirate, and later joined the Volaysian army to keep fighting the Pelarosi. When the Volaysian Unification War ended, the couple retired to Szendrodvarke and started a local cafe.

### L.P.P. & the Longerians

In 1928, Hend Viskov and his wife Arbania were convinced to join the Liamist People's Party by Frevin Banyel. During the Szendrodvarke Riots, the Viskov cafe acted as a makeshift medical center for those injured.

In 1929, the Viskovs were convinced to join the Longerian Sect. After the death of Gonvia Vandi, Hend Viskov won the elections for the district of Nyormonanz and became an MP of the parliament.

### President of the L.P.P.

After the assassination of Frevin Banyel, Hend Viskov became President of the L.P.P. and became the *de facto* leader of the opposition to Prime Minister Arbus Evin. This was surprising to many, as Elven Priest Vandenya seemed a much better fit for the role. It is rumoured that Vandenya was not chosen as President due to his relatively moderate stance; something unpopular among the other Longerians.
Enotilopolis Militias

The **Enotilopolis Militias** were a constituent force of the Ionian Rebel Alliance based in the middle course of the Iordanou River (most notably Enotilopolis) that participated in the Ionian Revolution. It valiantly resisted the Monarcho-Westist invaders, who razed Enotilopolis to the ground in retribution. The majority of its members, including its leaders, were killed fighting against the invaders or by the subsequent Cataclysm, and the Militias had ceased to exist by 1908. Surviving members either joined other militias or resorted to banditry.
Archedon Mountains

The **Archedon** or **Archedonian Mountain Range** is a large mountain range in northern Kokinos and southern Kanoria that divides the two countries and defines their natural barriers. The large mountains are largely uninhabited, and are the source of several major rivers in Kokinos. There are several paths that traverse these mountains, and major settlements in the region (such as Ionescos) are important traffic hubs located on either ends of the paths
Battle of Delphicalum

The **Battle of Delphicalum** was a major engagement of the Laronian Civil War. It stopped the northern and southern halves of the Kanorian-backed Brotherhood and Prosperity Alliance (BPA) from linking up and becoming a serious contender for power in the war. It also resulted in major territorial gains for the Laronian Army, which was supporting President L. C. E. Nicobulus in the war.

First Battle of Jollity

The **First Battle of Jollity** was an important early conflict of the Battle of the Neck. It was the first time in the campaign that the Union of O'Lear and Treaty of Tradition committed their elite forces to the same battle. In the case of the O'Leary, it was a detachment of the Sovereign Military Order of the Red Roach, and in the case of the Johninians, it was Kith Microgroup 37.

Ultimately, the Red Roaches overpowered the Kith, primarily through their numerical advantage and force of arms, allowing the 5th Naval Legion to capture Jollity.
Hadrianos

**Hadrianos**, formerly known as **Methos**, is a Kokinan city located in the Lakonia River District. It is situated where the Serco River flows meets and merges with the Lakonia River. The city was once the capital of Upper Lakonia (and subsequently Great Lakonia), though its remoteness led to its loss of influence and fall to irrelevancy by the 18th century. 70% of the city's population was killed in the Ionian Genocide, and the Cataclysm put the final nail on the coffin for Methos.

In 1909, a new city was built on the ruins and named Hadrianos, after the Ionian revolutionary Hadrianos Gabrelis.
Floropolis

## FloropolisΦλωροπόλις

* (Floropólis)

**Floropolis** is the current name of New Granfel, capital of the Socialist Republic of Kokinos, and the capital of the Granfel Capital District.

The city of Floropolis was once the capital of Ionia and Novo Gavia, before it was taken by the SRK in 1927 during the Novo Gavian Bush War. The city was renamed to Floropolis in honor of the martyr Spiro Floros, and was designated *de jure* capital of Kokinos, although government institutions were mainly in Johanopolis until 1932.

> *With a population of 930 thousand, Floropolis is one of the most developed cities in the SRK, and arguably the only "true city" in the nation. With paved streets, apartment buildings, and a government building filled with bullet holes, it is planned to be the nation's capital in the future, but many high ranking members of the government disagree, pointing out the city's proximity to the coast as being hard to defend"*

Elyas Vatyar

Elyas Vatyar in 1945

**Elyas Vatyar** is a Jabeyracki born Foleshi politician in Crimpor and is extremely influential in the country's politics, being one of the three founders of the Crimpor Democratic League alongside Ashwin Giorgos and Iris Ophelia. He served as the first Governor of the country's capital region of Crimpor City from the country's independence in 1930 till 1940 when he resigned in favour of Heshen Lerdon and due to his appointment to the Crimporian Cabinet.
Adam Dionysios

**Adam Dionysios** (1840-1908) was a Kokinan Ionian revolutionary who commanded the Ionian forces at the Battle of the Laron River against Monarcho-Westist invaders. The battle resulted in an Ionian defeat, and Dionysios was captured and transported to a POW camp in modern-day Düllsberg. He escaped after the Cataclysm struck, but was killed in a volcano eruption in eastern Kanoria in around 1908
Gedshiv

**Gedshiv** *(1858-1926)* was a Jabeyracki politician and officer who served on the Council of Six as Councilman of Defense for four years, beginning with the elections of 1922- which saw the incumbent First Grand Alliance lose in a landslide, with independents winning most seats. Gedshiv was crucial in organising a patchwork coalition of these independent candidates and forming a governing coalition- known as the Gedshiv Regime.
Felrin Republic

The **Felrin Republic** was a republic situated around the Felrin Province of the Kanorian Empire. It was established during the Felrin Revolution by dissatisfied anti-imperial revolutionaries in the context of the Fulcrum–Kanorian War. It was a durable republican state supported by the Fulcrum, and its growing power led to the Kanorian Fraternal War, a bloody conflict that saw it reintegrated into the imperial government by brute force.

Rather than adopt the name of the earlier Republic of Kanoria, the revolutionaries chose the more general "Felrin Republic" or "Republic of Felrin", which implied that it had a motherly responsibility to more than just ethnic Kanorians - for example, the Kanorian Ionians within their own boundaries, or the Laronians under their sphere of influence.

The Republic's brief existence contributed to the philosophical idea that Felrin was a "Second Granfel", i.e. an inheritor of the old Ionian culture.

On the death of Kanorian Emperor Osea I in 1972, local officials successfully lobbied for the creation of an independent "Federal Republic of Ionia" situated around Felrin. However, the appropriateness of that name was later contested by the Socialist Republic of Kokinos- though a vote in the Interstellar Cooperation Organization eventually resulted in their favour, much to the SRK's annoyance.
Inter-Continental Security League

The **Inter-Continental Security League**, commonly abbreviated as **I-CSL**, was an intergovernmental military and economic bloc headed by Wilter & Levi Industrial and consisting of itself and 4 other nations. It was most notably in opposition to the Fulcrum during its early years, but the two never directly engaged in combat.
History of Kanoria

The **history of Kanoria** began with the establishment of Kanorians as a cultural identity in Central Helinska.

## Early Kanorians

The Kanorian people are believed to have originated in southwestern Helinska sometime in the 1300s, until they were driven eastward and forced to settle in Central Helinska. They formed many petty chiefdoms, all of which were gradually conquered by the Despotate of Ionia in their push northward. They were "Ionianized" over time.

The **18th Kagrabadi Fitna** was the largest and final civil war in the Caliphate of Kagrabad. It led to the complete overthrow of the Caliph government and international intervention, itself leading to the later creation of the Republic of Al-Ansan.
Duchy of Translaronia

The **Duchy of Translaronia**, alternatively the **Principality of Translaronia** (*Principatus Translaroniae*, meaning "lands beyond the Laron"*)* was established by Alexios I, Despot of Ionia, during his conquests beyond the Laron River in 779. It was held by the House of Megas, usually through a governor, until its dissolution after the Third Sundering in 965.
Ionian Federation (Concept)

## Ionian Federation

Proposed flag for the Ionian Federation. Authenticity - dubious

The **Ionian Federation** was a concept for a centralized and federalized state to unify the Ionian Rebel Alliance. This idea, although promoted by some Ionian rebels and intellectuals, did not gain much serious traction, and it ceased to exist alongside the Ionian nation after the Genocide and Cataclysm.

The Ionian Rebel Alliance was a loose coalition of numerous militias united by nothing other than a common enemy. After the Ionian Revolution, the country's future was very much uncertain, and it was predicted that the Rebel Alliance would not last much longer. Some intellectuals therefore proposed a democratic, federalized nation to unite the Ionian people.

However, this idea was relatively unpopular. The militias, which ruled over their respective regions as *de facto* warlords, were unwilling to give up their power and lay down arms; The Kanorians, having overthrown Despotic rule, were unwilling to be in a state dominated by New Granfel again; and the Kokinans and Ionians felt that Kanoria's large population would lead them to dominate any democratic union between both sides of the Archedon Mountains

Therefore, some proposed that the Kanorians would be an independent nation separate from the Ionian Federation, with the Archedons as the border between the two nations. The borders of the Ionian Federation would thus largely mirror Novo Gavia and modern-day Kokinos. Nonetheless, the Ionian rebels were unwilling to give up power, and no such Federation would ever come into existence

When the Federal Republic of Ionia was created, many felt that it was a successor to the idea of an **Ionian Federation**. However, as the proposed territories of the Ionian Federation coincided with modern-day Kokinos, the Kokinans saw it as a move motivated by Kanorian nationalism to lay claim on Kokinan territory, and strongly condemned the Federal Republic as well as claiming that Kokinos was the "sole successor" to the Ionians.
Iordanou Rebel Alliance

The **Iordanou Rebel Alliance** was a part of the greater Ionian Rebel Alliance, that operated in the Iordanou river region from the 1880s to 1917. Led by Kokinan revolutionary Nestoras Spereas, the group was an influential faction in the Republic of Kokinos until its destruction at the hands of Novo Gavia in 1917
First Grand Alliance

The **First Grand Alliance,** more commonly known simply as the **Grand Alliance** was a coalition of Jabeyracki Political Parties formed in 1917. It was formed mainly at the behest of the Jabeyracki Liamist Party politicians Evandian and Bervo Remgard, and consisted of the Quesi People's Party, the Jabeyracki Liamist Party, the Davanpor Socialist Party and the Jabeyracki Liberal Progressives.
ICO Transitional Authority in Aeiliam

The **ICO Transitional Authority in Aeiliam** (ICOAE) was the first Transitional Authority to be declared by the ICO and arguably one of the most important. It was first declared in 1956, then disbanded in 1974 when Aeiliam was admitted to the Organization as an internationally-recognized member-state.
First Mistad Offensive

The **First Mistad Offensive** was a military operation during the Battle of the Neck that was launched by the Union of O'Lear's 13th and 5th Naval Legions in late 1926. It was targeted against Mistad, a large city located in the southern fringe of the Treaty of Tradition.

The fighting at Axiom Transit Hub had allowed Johninian forces to heavily garrison, fortify, and blockade all important routes to Mistad. This, in addition to the casualties already sustained by the 13th Naval Legion at Axiom and the inexperience of the newly-arrived 5th Naval Legion, meant all factors favored the defender. The First Mistad Offensive only saw minimal gains for the O'Leary before it was cancelled.

While the way to Mistad had not yet been forced open, the town of Gahn and its pacification complex were seized by the O'Leary clan-allegiant forces of Clan Skulder.

Felrin Province

The **Felrin Province** was the largest province- by both population and land- in the Federal Republic of Ionia and was often considered the 'main' or central province, wielding the most influence in Ionia as well as being home to the capital city of Felrin. Previously, it served as an administrative division of the Felrin Republic and, before that, of the Kanorian Empire.
Great Purge

The **Great Purge** was a series of widespread and systematic purges in the PDRK that destroyed, killed and disappeared everything and everyone associated with the Cult of Tarn, use of magic, manufacturing of golems, Patuljacs, and the old Kanorian ruling class, both Tarnist and aristocrat. The Great Purge, which was suggested by Chairman Paul Honecker's Kokinan advisors as well as the Minister of State Security Heinrich Brunn, is believed to have killed up to 0.7 million people from 1938 to 1942. The purge is considered a genocide by some in the Republic of Kanoria and beyond, and frequently mentioned by the PDRK's critics, such as Arkom Flintaar
Imeldach

**Imeldach** is a Kanorian city in Socialist Republic of Kokinos, initially founded in 1967. The settlement was demolished 2 years later, and its inhabitants were relocated south. Imeldach was reestablished in 2025 by ethnic Kanorians re-migrating to North Kokinos. Since 2030, it has been designated an **ethnic autonomous polis** by the Kokinan government.

The city is located near the ruins of Amaldorf, a once prosperous Kanorian city south of the Archedon Mountains. It is believed that "Imeldach" may have been named after or derived from "Amaldorf"

## Demographics

Kanorians are the majority population in Imeldach, making up 72% of the population. Kokino-Ionians are the largest minority, making up 13% of the population. 8% are Katavians, and the remaining are various international migrants

## Separatism

A self-proclaimed "Imeldach Provisional Landtag" claiming to be the "democratic legislature" of Imeldach exists and operates in exile in Felrin. It consists mostly of Kanorians from Kanoria, along with some ethnic Kanorians from Imeldach and other parts of Kokinos. Outside of Kokinos, the "support for Imeldach separatism" is often overblown, and more "accurate" estimations state that almost all Kanorians in Kokinos have no interest in separatism

Attack on the Gilded Keep

Belligerents| Elves and Graolist militias of Esket | Lordship of Heliogatenberg* Clan Sorrel
	+ Clan Selby

The **Attack on the Gilded Keep** was the decisive battle of the Faithful Rising of Esket that took place in 1895. It was mounted by the elvish forces of Kayas Melnaus and aimed to wipe out the leadership of Clan Sorrel. Though the attack was unsuccessful, it rattled the Sorrels enough to make concessions and reconciliation attempts.
Elf

Elves are one of the species found in Yulea. Dating back to ancient times. They have the longest lifespans out of all the species, living up to 400 years, and look very similar to humans, distinguished by their long, pointy ears. Elves are also usually very adept in magic, their long lifespan affords them more time to master the art of magic. However elves are physically weaker than humans, this is because their skeletons are smaller to place less strain on their body allowing them to live longer.

Elves also aren't the best at thinking in the short term with their long lifespans.

* (Hung Kwangchung)

**Hong Wei** (CH: 洪威), courtesy name **Guangzhong** (光中) was a Cathese revolutionary and politician who founded the National Revolutionary Party and led the War of Liberation against the Kanikawa Shogunate. He served as the first Prime Minister of the West Kalshei Federation. While he was celebrated as the Founder and Liberator of the WKF, his semi-authoritarian rule and the pseudo-cult of personality built around him, as well as some of the WKF's early anti-Kanikawan policies during the tutelage period has left a mixed and controversial legacy
Edmond George Callaghan

**Edmond George Callaghan** *(1946-2037)* was a Polmarian politician from Staptonsburg who served as the Prime Minister of Polmaria for 15 years, serving from 1992 until 2007. Callaghan was the first Prime Minister to have not held any positions in the nations that preceded the Second Republic i.e. the nations of the Alliance to Restore Polmaria.
Duchy of Camaria

1906

Flag of the Duchy of Camaria

The **Duchy of Camaria** was one of the three main nations to succeed the First Kingdom of Polmaria after the Cataclysm and the fall of the Polmarian Triumvirate. After the death of Carlov West in 1907, and King Lucas escaped captivity, Polmaria was fractured into many smaller nations and warlord factions (Such as Volaysia, Jabeyrack, Pelaros etc.). The Duchy of Camaria is located in the capital region of Polmaria, and yet it remained the most unorganised of the three main Polmarian successors until 1925. It had no official government and was often ravaged by lawlessness, crime and chaos.

Early in 1925, King Lucas returned from Saldeo to Camaria and many Camarians immediately swore loyalty to him. Gone were the days of chaos; Camaria was back on the world stage.

Soon after Lucas's return, Edward II was made Duke of Camaria. After that, the Calano Dynasty aggressively pursued the reunification of former Polmarian land, and managed to convince the nations of Jabeyrack and Republic of Volaysia to join the Second Kingdom of Polmaria.
Eirstad Socialist Party

The **Eirstad Socialist Party** is a Fulcrumite Socialist party and the only official party in the Fulcrum Republic of Eirstad. It was the main force in gaining Eirsten independence from the United Regions of Haljanska in 1954.

The ESP was founded in 1950 by the revolutionary Fredrik Eirent, along with his cousin Jens Eirent and the Orc leader Skaldor Hartling. The ESP wished to establish an independent nation in Eirstad, and waged a guerilla war against the United Regions of Haljanska for four years before gaining the support of the Lemetiate of Airolia and the Fulcrum in 1954. This outside backing allowed the ESP to defeat the armies of Haljanska and establish a Fulcrum Republic.
Isles Centralis

It consists of the Prithanian Home Island, the Isle of Guernas, the Isle of Zantea, the Isle of Wilburn, the Isle of Stein, and other smaller islands and rocks surrounding these islands. The Isles Centralis are the homeland of Prithania, and all of the islands are held by Prithania or are Crown Dependencies, that being personal property of the Prithanian Crown
Great Eredanese War

Belligerents| **Southern Protection Pact** (Protectionists) Karostain Empire

SFR Iljekya* Various collaborators and agents

Leaders| Clement ISainted Imperial Officers' Council* Hermahn Ottozohn

The **Great War**, also known as the **Great Anti-Communist War** by the CEF, the **Great Holy War** (Grosgeheiligtkrig) by the GROR, and the **Great ~~Patriotic~~ War to Defend the Motherland from Reactionaries and Imperialists** by Iljekya, was the largest international total war in Eredan by terms of scale, casualties and destruction. It's outcome is debated - some call it a stalemate, while others call it a decisive or pyrrhic Allied victory/Iljekyan defeat.

Despite having the largest population and military in Eredan before the war broke out, Iljekya's leadership suffered from intense power struggles and frequent, massive purges, meaning that competent generals did not last long. After the execution of Field Marshal Konstantin Makarov, often dubbed "the last competent Iljek general", in February of 1945, the Iljekyan military suffered a string of defeats and pushbacks. The Karostain Empire was also toppled, and the frontlines would only stabilize in 1947. The International Cooperation Organization called for a ceasefire, though it was largely ignored by Iljekya until its leader Mikhail Voloshin was toppled and purged by a coalition of Party members led by Viktyor Karbachev, who believed that a ceasefire would allow Iljekya to recoup its losses, rebuild and continue the War in the future. A temporary ceasefire was called, though no formal peace treaty with Iljekya was ever signed, meaning that the Great War is - technically - still ongoing

## Aftermath

Up to 1/4 of the Eredanese population perished in the War and from subsequent famines and disease. Casualties in countries ranged from 10% to near 50% of the population. Numerous minority ethnic groups went extinct. Countless historical, cultural and archaeological symbols and sites were deliberately destroyed or caught in the crossfire.

Fear of Iljekya and communism prompted the creation of the Central Eredan Treaty Organization, beginning closer diplomatic, political, economic and cultural cooperation between Eredanese countries that would eventually result in the CEF. The Badgural Trials were held to try war criminals and put them to justice.

When the Iljekyan regime collapsed, CETO ensured that no unified Iljekyan nation-state, with a strong economy, industry and/or military would be able to emerge from its ruins, and the slogan "Iliekia Delenda Est" (Iljekya must be destroyed) was promoted. This ensured peace and stability in Eredan would remain for centuries to come, though some in the ICO have called it a "genocide". To this day, Iljekya remains a wasteland with no unified regime - ICO and CEF jurisdiction exists in name only for the most part.
Great Mind-Death

The **Great Mind-Death** was a catastrophic event for Clan Baxter that occurred early in the O'Leary War of Changing. In it, nine skilled Seers attempted to amplify each others' power and discern troop movements of Clan Sorrel's 5th Naval Legion. They anticipated a naval assault on Courienta, and sought to ward it off by gathering powerful military intelligence through Sight. However, something went wrong and all nine were rendered comatose, dying shortly after.

## Seers involved

* Grand Huntsman **Gaston Klathburg**, regarded as the second-most-powerful Seer after Laurents Baxter
* Huntsman Lord **Brauchner Magnus Taverly** of Two Folds, the Head of Clan Taverly
* Lady **Daeria Sussang** of Ragnalloc
* **Janos** and **Justus Torwylde**
* **Cassandra Beatty**
* **Klement Hadermann**
* Attendant **Maurits**
* Attendant **Nestor**

## Aftermath

The death of Gaston Klathburg meant Laurents Baxter was the only Grand Huntsman of the Spirits Graol left alive.

Brauchner Taverly's death was a crisis for Clan Taverly; his son Jaeson succeeded him as Head of the family.
