Autokratoria Sirradra

The **Imperial Archonal Union**, commonly known as the **IAU** or the **Union,** was a nation ruling over the continent of Cymru and the Svalden Sea, as well as large swatches of Sparwood, Tovarishan land gained during the formation of the union. The nation was founded following the Viodoxan Civil War (Second Purple Insurrection or the March of the Exiles) and the dissolution of the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa. It was dissolved during the Viesten Coup, and replaced shortly after by the Autokratia Sirradra.

The nation was created by adapting the government of the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa following the war, as well as incorporating elements of the Tovarishan and Eisenlandian government systems.

The government structure was a Constitutional Monarchy with a strong bureaucratic system. It was led by an Archon, with a Regent Archon and Lord Protector who were able to function as head of state in the event of the Archon being indisposed.

## Cultures of The Union

The IAU is known for its freedom of speech, religion, and culture. This results in a diversity in culture like no other, with every province having its own major culture. In any case, all of the Union stays together enjoying their freedom and unity.

### Viodoxan Culture

Viodoxan culture is the oldest culture in the nation, and it can be mainly found on the city of Viodoxa and the territories around in the province of Adytum. Viodoxan culture forms the main basis for the other cultures in Cymru and has remained the heart of the nation's core as it maintains a national hegemony over the I.A.U. Ever since the inception of the Archonate, the city has been known for its exceptionally niche occupations found nowhere else. This in turn has created one of the wealthiest and developed groups of people in Rathnir, as these jobs pay the salary of a common noble.

### Tovarishan Culture

Tovarishan culture is found primarily in the northern reaches of the Union, particularly in Sparwood, but some immigrants from the region have spread the practices and beliefs to other regions in the nation. Tovarisha contains three provinces, those being Seragon, Tatsuhosho, and Burgamere, all of which posess their own distinctive cultures.

### Hanzeizh Culture

Hanzeizh culture is most present in the city of Valentum, and the province of Hireathium. It is the origin of the Hanzeizh language, and a basis of the current general culture of the continent of Cymru.

### Valroni Culture

Valroni culture is mainly found within the province of Valron and some parts of the Aurlunor Velande and Yimmu-Audal. The culture was developed when the City of Valron was being built, due to being inland and having luke warm summers and chilling winters, different from Viodoxa, its customs and cuisines are majorly different from its neighbours. Also of note, due to the fact that Valron is situated near the river mouth of the Cuvon River, many of its cuisines are fish based and influenced by some of its foreign immigrants.

### Shalomakii Culture

Shaloman culture has changed drastically over time, evolving into two distinct subcultures, Slaekii and Hantseakii, being respectively the native peoples and the hybridised culture of Shalomakii and Hanziezh, forming the dominant culture of the region today. Slaekii culture is mainly followed in De Sloog and Blackwater, but it can also be found in some cities inside of Tortuga, but is a minority ethnic group compared to Hantseakii, which is found through most of the rest of the region.

### Silvish Culture

Silvay, due to its age and size, contains a variety of cultures within itself, each county within the nation nearly having its own independent identity beyond the umbrella term of Silvay. Silvay is as a general statement, one of the wealthier provinces, and encourages hard work and ambition (within reason).

### Fortunan Culture

Most of the culture in in the north of this province is derived from the Fortunans and the Fortunist religion. There's a Hellenistic building design in these buildings and they spread throughout north of the province. Very similar cultures are the Kaisaran culture and the Lapithosi culture. For example, in the Lapithosi culture, buildings are more detailed on their walls and they use granite in their roofs instead of bricks like Fortuna.

The south of the province has different cultures, like the Foxterians, which live in Vassa, and build foxholes instead of normal houses or the Fjörgyian culture, which places an emphasis on building and cooperation. Fjörgyians build unique red brick houses and form very close bonds of friendships with friendly groups.
