Hallengard

The Sovereignty of Hallengard
The Sovereignty of Hallengard is a southern empire located centrally on the continent of Sørligste, spanning the dark oak forest, plains, as well as the mountains.

Origins
Hallengard originates from an old-age tribe called the Talvölker ('Peoples of the Valley' in the Traveller's Tongue), and inherited from them a dialect that was more Germanic, rather than that spoken on the rest of the continent. The warrior-king of this tribe, said to be born into divinity as the offspring of Midar, the Sun and Sui, the Moon, (see Hallen's Faith) is known to have gone by the name of Hallen, thus making the nation's name derived from its supposed first ruler, but is more often known by the title of Erstkönig, or First King, by locals in the region, who are said to be his direct descendants. In the ages following Hallen's initial settlement of the land, each king, now coming to bear the title of Grand Emperor, has been said to be born of the same two deities, who only end their eternal conflict for the shortest time in order to bring about a heir to the lineage.

History
After it's founding on the 23rd of November, 2021, the nation was established with the construction of the Emperor's Bastion - an imposing mountain-top fortification marking the capital's northern border as well as it's main gate which was the first monument to the nation's glory to be built. Standing watch over the valley in which the capital lies, the Bastion was intended to serve as both a base of operations as well as a warning to anyone who might've thought to challenge the fledgling nation's claim to the region.
