# Exile and Foundation

Electra establishes the Kingdom of Electra in the Transylvanian Mountains. The kingdom consolidates its power in the rugged terrain of Transylvania, attracting refugees, dissidents, and disenchanted individuals from neighboring regions.

# 110 - 120 CE

Electra engages in diplomatic efforts with neighboring tribes and local populations. The kingdom experiences a cultural renaissance, blending Roman traditions with local Transylvanian influences.

Electra passed the crown to her son, Aurelius Trajanus, named in honor of his father, the mighty Emperor Trajan.

# Aurelius Trajanus

Aurelius Trajanus, ascended the throne with a sense of duty and a burden of secrecy. The truth about his lineage, tied to Rome, was kept veiled until Electra's death. The revelation sent shockwaves through the kingdom and Rome, and Aurelius Trajanus, now King, found himself at a crossroads.

Forced to cut ties with Rome or fight a war to became a Emperor, Aurelius Trajanus turned his gaze north and west. The decision to sever connections with Rome was met with mixed emotions among the populace, but the king focused on consolidating power within the kingdom. Despite whispers of impending conflicts, the king refrained from engaging in external campaigns. Instead, he quietly cultivated an army, known as the Silent Legions, drawing on the strength and discipline of the diverse populace that now called the Kingdom of Electra home.

The northern and western expanses became bastions of resilience, prepared for any storm that might descend from the mountains or sweep across the plains.

# Peace

After forty years of reign, Aurelius Trajanus passed away, leaving a legacy of preparation and silent strength. His son, named Octavian Trajanus, succeeded him, under Octavian Trajanus' rule, the Kingdom of Electra entered an era of relative peace. Octavian's focus shifted inward, fostering internal growth, cultural development, and diplomatic ties with neighboring tribes.

The years unfolded with an unspoken promise of stability, the fruits of Aurelius Trajanus' preparations. Octavian Trajanus, although untested by the external tumult that had plagued his predecessors, navigated the delicate balance of maintaining vigilance without provoking unnecessary conflicts. The Kingdom of Electra became a haven of prosperity, seemingly shielded from the storms gathering beyond its borders.

# Uldin The Great

Olt River, 400 CE.

Uldin's influence stretched over Muntenia, present-day Romania east of the Olt River. The extent of his dominion to the north and east remained shrouded in mystery, but the whispers of his authority reached the banks of the Danube, where Hun refugees had encamped since 375.

As the political landscape shifted, Uldin's nomadic camps faced challenges. Gainas, a former magister militum praesentalis, sought refuge across the Danube in his native land. Uldin, wary of allowing a formidable force to establish itself so close, engaged Gainas in a decisive conflict. In a victorious display, Uldin not only defeated Gainas but sent his severed head as a grim testament to his prowess to the Emperor Arcadius in Constantinople.

Late in the fall of 404 and in 405, Uldin's Huns crossed the Ister, leaving a wake of devastation in Thrace. Yet, Uldin's motives were not those of the typical marauding invaders. They were nomads in search of a new home, driven by the winds of circumstance rather than a lust for conquest. Their presence mirrored disturbances in Isauria, with the Huns crossing borders, not as conquerors, but as tribal warriors seeking sanctuary.

In 406, Uldin and Sarus the Goth joined forces to repel the Gothic invasion of Italy led by king Radagaisus. The Battle of Faesulae witnessed the might of Huns encircling a significant Gothic contingent. Radagaisus met his death, and the Goths of Radagaisus, fleeing from the Hunnic lands, were unwittingly pushed westward by other nomadic tribes from the East.

# A Kingdom United

In the summer of 408, the Huns learned of shifting Roman strategies. Stilicho's decisions led the Huns to venture into Balkan and Thrace. Capturing Castra Martis in Dacia Ripensis, Uldin's forces asserted their presence.

But, Uldin's path intersected with the Kingdom of Electra, ruled by Queen Minola. Instead of a clash of arms, it became a meeting of hearts and minds. Recognizing the nomadic refugees not as invaders but as tribal warriors seeking refuge, Queen Minola extended a hand in friendship.

Uldin and Queen Minola forged an alliance that transcended borders. The Huns, found a new home in the Kingdom of Electra, blurring the lines between conquerors and the conquered. The political landscape shifted from confrontation to cooperation, as the once-wary nomads became integral to the fabric of Electra's realm.

Uldin became the first not Balkan King with Queen Minola as his wife and the Hun Empire was born.
