### Other specifications

## Founding and Purpose

The Nation, or the Nulgath Nation is formed around the archfiend Nulgath.

The Nation is founded when Nulgath opened Tercessuinotlim, his underworld dungeon, to adventurers.

As for the purpose of the Nation is to obtain more wealth and power for Nulgath the Archfiend. This consists of material wealth, but also new member, souls and knowledge.

The members of the Nation are mostly demonkind like Nulgath. Some members are created by Nulgath himself out of the void. They are bound to Nulgath. Others are fiends like Nulgath and just pledged their alliance to him. And a big part just joined the Nation to be corrupted by Nulgaths power for an harsh contract or a part of their soul.

As Empress Gravelyn sees Nulgath as one of her generals and he seems to obey to her the Nation automatically falls under The Shadowscythe empire.

## Notable events and achievements

### AQWorlds

In AQWorlds the Nation is most known for their base in Tercessuinotlim, the former hideout of Nulgath.

Around 2012 Dage the Evil betrayed Nulgath and the Nation took up arms against The Legion to defend their master and the Oblivion Gate from Dage. Despite winning the war, Dage did trick Nulgath in an assault on the Oblivion Gate which cost Dilligaf his life. In the turmoil, Dage made Nulgath lose his balance causing him to fall into the Oblivion Gate and banished him for a time to the timestream of OverSoul.

Since then the Nation has been without their leader. Dirtlicker took over in leading the Nation when Nulgath contacted him via the Archportal. Which he then secured for the Nation with the help of the Hero and Balor.

Since then there have been attempts to bring Nulgath back to Lore and recruit more members without him. Although rumors are that some generals on Lore are being restless and might take over lead of the Nation there.

An first attempt of Nulgath to return to Lore was foiled by ChaosLord Beleen after the Chaos war, but Dirtlicker made sure there will be nothing in the way next time.

In the years that followed; it appeared that Revontheus betrayed the Nation and founded his own faction inside the Crystallis.

### AQ3D

This is the only other timeline in which the Nation is present with a story. You can visit the Nation's headquarters in AQ3D through one of the portals in the Underworld.

### Oversoul

This is the game and timeline Nulgath was banished to by Dage the Evil during the war. Sadly the game's development did not come as far to settle a solid storyline. The only known thing is that Nulgath is here and is gaining power, souls and an army to return to Lore.

## Fun Facts

* The Evil war was rigged, but corrected by AE later.
* The Nation was the first faction around, but not recognized as such till around 2015.
* The realistic chances that Nulgath actually returns from Oversoul are very small.

## Real life story and faction development.

Nulgath was the founder artist of AQWorlds and snuck in his own faction and realm into the game in 2009.

Due to his plain but catchy artstyle and challenging quests a lot of players decided to go for it and obtain the rare loot his faction offered.

When Nulgath went to develop Oversoul in 2012 the Dage versus Nulgath war happened to explain this transition. As well did his name change from Miltonius to Nulgath at that time.

In 2015 Nulgath left Artix Entertainment, but the Nation is still being upheld by it's supporters and some dedicated developers over time such as Revontheus, Zee, Sync, Asuka, Tendou, Pisces and Lae.
