## Summary

The Kundrall Zrulenate was a small island nation located in the Tortugan-Karkarosi region of Rathnir, an absolute monarchy from 95 BF to 1 AF following its capitulation and the establishment of the Colony of Kundrall. It was known for its unique and history characterized by a despotic absolute monarchy and a complex political landscape, particularly from a strong military establishment. The nation was ruled by the Nasis Dynasty, although was ruled by regency and de-facto military dictatorship under Publiann from 1 AF to 6 AF.

The nation existed as a Tortugan colony for over 500 years until a Lorentian invasion in 99 BF. Since then, the Nasis Dynasty has ruled with nearly unchecked power. Domini Nasis ruled with relative stability and was succeded by his son Triki Nasis, who faced numerous challenges to his rule such as Lauser's Revolt, the Zrule's Council, and the "January Revolution" in 1 AF which would see his dethroningin favour of his son Greele Nasis. General Publiann would assume power as regent until the heir would come of age, becoming what was essentially absolute dictator over the Kundrall Zrulenate.

Publiann would institute the "Publiann Piracy", a period of state mandated piracy against fellow vassals in the Tortugan empire. Shrub Administration officials would allege that such piracy had devastated Lakkosian trade, further declaring it to be an intentional policy in an effort to topple the Republic of Lakkos. A declaration of war would follow as the Lakkosian Invasion of the Dual Islands began; Harold Shrub cited that the Dual Islands must be liberated.

Publiann wielded total military control and martial law, pursuing a naval policy with the intention of cutting of reinforcements to the beachhead and starving Lakkos through grain shortages.

## Geography

A network of rivers and freshwater streams snake through the grasslands of the lower Island towards the distant mountains, creating opportunities for river excursions. These waterways are home to a variety of wildlife, including colorful parrots and jaguars. The island is a biodiversity hotspot, with numerous endemic species found nowhere else in the Tortugan sea.

## Tortugan Colony

The Kundrall Zrulenate was first settled by Tortugan exiles as a penal colony around 600 BF, developing small settlements and gradually developing a unique culture.

## Lorentian invasion

In 99 BF, Kundrall fell to occupation via a Lorentian invasion of Tortuga. Following the defeat of Lorentian forces after a few years of fighting in the surrounding region, Kundrall would manage to proclaim its autonomy under the Nasis dynasty in 95 BF.

## Nasis Dynasty

The Nasis dynasty has wielded absolute power historically, a status quo that slips with each succession as each new Zrule is more incompetent and decadent than the last. The dynasty is currently led by Greele Nasis, 10 years old, ultimately delegating all authority to a strong military complex.

- Domini Nasis (95 BF - 40 BF)

- Triki Nasis (40 BF - 1 AF)

- Greele Nasis (1 AF - Present)

## Publiann Regency

Publiann embarked on a campaign of state piracy following his assuming of the regency after the January Revolution. This campaign of state piracy was conducted against fellow vassals in Karkaros, resulting in a war with the young Republic of Lakkos.

The war would result in the decisive battles of Foxindale and the Two Rivers, followed by the Siege of Kundrall and collapse of the Zrulenate.
