Baronos

Baronos is a small Audalad town located in southern Alteniquia.

Description
Baronos has a unique shape. Its buildings follow a round, ring-like road that encircles the town's shallow bay. Bamboos grow tall alongside the townhouses, built with concrete dyed in many lively colors and stone bricks. It neighbours the town of Bluefield and the Apollo Radio headquarters.

History
The town, being in a remote area, had a rather peaceful history.

Founding
The fisrt settlers of Baronos came on a ship captained by Riff_The_One fleeing a catastrophic event of uncertain nature back in their homeland. After a storm, the ship bogged down on the sandy shores of the island on which the town of Baronos was founded, by Riff, under patronage of Gray_Is_Yes. Originally, it as was part of the Kingdom of Tálor.

The fall of the Kingdom of Tálor
When the United Empire of Akratia decided to claim the land that belonged to the Kingdom of Tálor, the small kingdom was no match for the Empire. The capital fell to the Akratian forces without any resistance. Fearing for the future of his town, then alone and defenseless after the fall of the Kingdom, Riff_The_One decided that Baronos would voluntarily join the empire. Despite the conquest, Akratia's influence on the region was pratically nule during its reign.

The Recognition of Tálor Treaty
Following the outbreak of the Akratian Civil War, Theios-Essukdal, Yimmu-Audal's sucessor state, made negotiations with the United Empire. Akratia decided to back down and give back the lands it conquered from the fallen Kingdom of Tálor to Theios-Essukdal. Baronos, under a treaty of its own, was also peacefully and temporarily transfered to Theios-Essukdal, as part of the Atsyllean County along with Tálor and other settlements.
