Temple Of Kroska

Kroska depicted as the spirit of the sun when the first prophet heard his voice.

### Religious Head

House Ledovowski (??? - 976 A.E.)Vacant (976 A.E. - Present)

### Main Deity

Kroska

The Temple of is a denomination of the overall Kroskan faith. It differs in many ways from the Kroskan Orthodoxy. However the most significant and apparent difference is that followers of the Orthodoxy believe Kroska was reviled to them in physical form, whereas followers of the Temple believe Kroska was reviled to them in the spiritual, and talked through the power of stars and sun above.

## Main tenets

The Temple of Kroska shares very similar values with the Orthodoxy.

* Honest
* Honor
* Hierarchy

Followers of the Temple also believe in the ability to make one's self better through hard-work and determination, the value of noble blood is still crucial, and leads many of the follower's political beliefs. However, the economic side is slightly less important. Peasants are encouraged to work hard and strive for a better life for themselves and their families.

Conversion is also far more presentable than the Orthodoxy. Those who convert to the Temple are treated as equals as those who have been following since birth. They are treated as people who have lost their way and have returned to purity and sanity. And they are allowed to live on as the rest of the people do in the skies upon death.

The Village of Orvestscire was a more tribal society that was founded and ruled by then-Ealdorman Bjorn "Frostbitten" Horvar. Now succeeded by the Jarldom of Gildenford, it is still one of the few nations without a set religion in place.

## **History**

### Founding

Formed a few months after Bjorn "Frostbitten" Horvar's arrival to Sykrovia, the Village of Orvestscire is a tiny bustling village found to the very northern reaches of Sykrovia. Their main cultural ideals are community, tradition, and perseverance.

## Reign of Ealdorman Bjorn Horvar (972 A.E. - 973 A.E.)

972 A.E. - Bjorn Horvar creates the Village of Orvestscire, becoming it's first and now only Ealdorman.

973 A.E. - Bjorn organizes Orvestscire into the first Jarldom, becoming the first Jarldom of Gildenford.

## Culture

This section will be delved into on the new Jarldom of Gildenford page.

## Military

The Orvestscirian military is what is called a fyrd, or peasant army. It is made up primarily of many conscripted villagers, or, if needed, less, yet more professional warriors. The main purpose of the fyrd is defense of the nation, so offensive wars would typically not be seen as much, unless an ally provides a equal or solid amount of troops as well. Because of Orvestscire using a fyrd, there is no single specialization, though Orvestscirians would make good archers typically, as the villagers are usually required to provide their own weapons, and bows are one of the easiest weapons to obtain, if only crudely made.

Stengar was the first kingdom allied to Kaltlanda, followed by Libertia. But with rising tensions between Tyrakir and Stengar, Kaltlanda had to make a choice. They sided with Tyrakir, dissolving the allyship between them Stengar, and Libertia.

After the allyship with Tyrakir, Stengar had an issue with Kaltlanda, for breaking the alliance with them to join sides with their enemy. Soon the Stengarian builders had built a wall blocking Tyrakir from the Greenlands. Kaltlanda did the same, except blocking the Greenlands from the snow. After this, Stengar saw this as a sign of hostility, and declared war, on the Kaltlandians. Soon this war claim would dissolve, with Stengar falling apart, and King Jack burning it to the ground. Soon Stengar would be rebuilt and would cross the snow border and threatened Sir Tybalt's head if the wall weren't taken down within a week. This threat wasn't followed through with because King Jack went missing, and was never seen again. Soon, Kaltlanda allied with the Libertians, and made well relationships with nations such as Hippolyta and the Mardock Merchant Guild.

But before Jack had gone missing, it was found out King Jack, along with Kordonians, tortured the Jarl of Tyrakir, Aelthred to death. After this, the Jarl Sigrid had allied with Libertia and the Mardocks, and in a few weeks, the war was declared, and The Seige of Kordaliska was fought, and won by the allies. After this Kaltlanda formed a massive alliance between the Mardocks, Hippolyta, and Libertia. Now Kaltlanda stands as one of the most powerful nations on the island.

When Sir Alek Dondarion and King Jack both died, neither Houses had been able to remain, that is until the son of Jack Stewart, Flynn, appeared to retake whatever remained of the House his father created, with the Dondarion House falling to obscurity.

It was not an easy task, but after founding the Stengarian Order, Flynn Stewart found solace with one Adrestia Lauren, fostering three twins, two boys and one girl, and establishing a new dynasty of his own making.

## **Placeholder**

Following Flynn's death on Askalar and the move of his children to Barnaim, his children grew up unknowing of the nation Flynn had fostered, and the legacy, both famous and infamous, he gained over the course of his short life. That being so, and what little time Flynn could spend with his kids traveling back and forth from Barnaim to Askalar, his children, and thus his dynasty, grew without many in it ever quite knowing of the damage he caused and the infamy he brought to the Stewart line.

The House of Horvar came to be in 611 A.E., after Sigismund Horvar, a Commander in his clan's army, successfully led a rebellion in 611 A.E. against his former Leader, overthrowing him and taking the seat for himself. During Sigismund's reign, he conquered many clans surrounding himself, uniting them all under one banner. Having been the first Clan Leader to do so in many a century, he was aptly named "the Uniter," to indicate his accomplishments. He would continue to unite the surrounding lands until his death 10 years later, in 647 A.E., at the age of 53.

The Battle of The Greenlands

Stengar troops ready to enter the field

The Battle of the Greenlands was the only battle in the Stengar-Libertia War which concluded with a Stengarian victory resulting in the vassalization of Libertia under Stengar

## Prelude

The war itself began when Jack Stewart brought a proclamation to queen Ray offering to vassalize her kingdom, due to her short time as queen not instilling confidence in her abilities to make such a large decision, and the vassalization forcing her kingdom to lose much of its identity, queen Ray would refuse the proclamation. Upon return of Jack Stewart to Stengar he would declare war upon Libertia, claiming “The men of the Greenlands must be united by sword, pen or gold. Anything less would leave us vulnerable and weak.”

### The Battle

The Libertians chose not to wait for the battle and chose to initiate it the day of the war declaration. They had superior numbers than the Stengarians but the Stengarians had a technological and armoured advantage, having more bows, arrows and armour. The Libertians employed a short distance flanking tactic around the northern side but failed, having lost 300 of their 500 troops, shortly thereafter the Libertians retreated to their kingdom and promptly surrendered to the Stengarians. This battle was a major victory for the Stengarians as they would succcessfully vassalize Libertia and did not lose any men in battle by mostly wearing down their enemy with small guerilla tactics and volley fire from their archers.

Merchant Republic of Valetera

Avanti Valeterii!

With territories along the eastern coast of the continent, the Merchant Republic of Valetera is a fairly wealthy mercantile nation with trade relations spanning across the continent.

## **History**

### Founding

The preceding tribes of Valetera were unusually egalitarian, having an anarchic existence for hundreds of years in what is now known as Valland. Upon Massimo Compagni and his expedition arriving in the plains in 658 AE , he came into contact with the tribes, and upon assimilation, attempted to organize the peoples, and create a new and free country.

Agreements within themselves promised the keeping of their free traditions, along with equal rights given to both parties. A full republic was set up by the end of the year, and the city of Valetera was proclaimed as the seat of republican power.

At the turn of the year, a cry of "Avanti Valetera!" could be heard ringing throughout the town.

## Term of Massimo Compagni (658 AE - 660 AE)

The first election of Valetera resulted in a landslide victory for Massimo Compagni, heralded as the "Uomo libero!" by the populace of Valetera.

(Placeholder for now)

## Term of Bessabaria Berrerant (661-)

### Election Trail

Being a close friend of Massimo Compagni, Bessabaria had became a citizen of Valetera just a few months before creating the Valeteran Free Trade Party. Campaigning on the promises of neutrality, unrestricted trade, and continued promise of freedom, Bessabaria won the election, beating out numerous other candidates, and being sworn in as the second Grand Consul of the Republic of Valetera.

## Culture

The populace of Valetera is comprised of a mix of ancient tribes, foreigners, and men from the expedition of Massimo Conpagni.

## Military

The Valeteran military is made up of an elite volunteer army. Valeteran tradition mandates that soldiers must pay for their own equipment, and to undergo sometimes excessive amount of training.

## Settlements and Titles

City of Valetera ~ Capitol of the Republic
Voivodeship of Zykoszyn

Horsemen of the Plains

The County of Kozlowka is a feudal county under the rule of Count Sokół Aleksander Ledóvowski III. It maintains claims over the center of Sykrovia, in the Zlotovy Plains.

## **History**

### Founding

Upon Sokół Aleksander Ledóvowski III's arrival to Sykrovia via shipwreck, he quickly searched the nearby coastlines for fellow survivors, of the hundreds that came with him, only around 100 survived, and Sokół was the only Noble left alive.

He then reorganized the survivors into an operational group. He declared that he would lead them to glory, survival, and prosperity. They then went off into Sykrovia, looking for a new place to call home. When they stumbled into the Zlotovy Plains, and found the Seroki Lake, they knew they had found a new home, and declared Sokół Count of Kozlowka.

## **Reign of Sokół Aleksander Ledóvowski III (97x A.E. - 976 A.E.)**

### The Creation of the Voivode

Following this rapid expansion, Sokół Aleksander Ledóvowski III awarded Mindaugas Daumantas Wladyslaw Dominykas III the title of prince, and a small portion of the Zlotovy plains to be ruled personally by Mindaugas, known as the Principality of Arklysija. This was payment for the service Mindaugas had done for Sokół over the time of the creation and subsequent expansion of Kozlowka. However, due to this expansion it was not fit to refer to the overall nation as a simple county. Through this, The County Of Kozlowka was made into the Voivode Of Zykoszyn.

## **Culture**

The Kozlowkan Culture revolves around 3 main things. The hierarchy of nobility, the honor of one's nation and self, and to always be honest. These derive from the state religion of Kozlowka, the Temple of Kroska.

## **Military**

The Kozlowkan military derives its identity from the Stanislowian military, where House Ledóvowski is from. Due to the location of Kozlowka being in the Zlotovy Plains, the horse is the primary weapon of the Kozlowkan war machine.

Nobility is always utilized as the heavy cavalry force, focused more on hammer and anvil charges and horseback combat.

The heavy infantry is made up of veteran soldiers, or peasants who managed to rise up the economic ladder to afford their own plate armor.

Archers and peasant levy forces make up the final parts of the Kozlowkan army. These soldiers are lightly armored and are more utilized to trap enemies in positions where the heavy cavalry can do devastating damage.
