Kingdom of Helos

The Kingdom of Heloisa, also known simply as Heloisa, is a country locacted in the southern part of Eldham. It is a protectorate of Nova Azcoria.

The Founding
The Kingdom of Heloisa was founded almost a month exactly after the founding of Helos. While there was no war or dispute, the country underwent a big transition. Although Helos growing fast, it didn't have a proper government for a nation and it had almost no culture identity. Before the founding, most Heloisans were converted Zavtranianists. This was until Prince Bitter was visited by the old god, Tybur. Bitter was one of the converted Zavtranianists, who did so primarily to cultivate good relations with The Second Plagetean Empire. Tybur reminded Bitter, in the old tongue, that he must continue the prophecy of restoring The Osstieon Empire. Inspired by this message, Bitter restored his faith in Osstieon Divines. On June 19, 2021, he changed his title from Prince of Helos to King of Heloisa. He changed the country's name and made a new flag; he also reincorporated traditional Heloisan culture, renamed the cities, and changed the state religion back to Osstieonism. Many citizens were happy to see the culture of the previous Heloisan nations being restored for the first time since the Heldrak; a surge in nationalist sentiments soon followed. King Bitter Dovialka remarks that this change is the last era before his destiny is fulfilled and the New Osstieon Empire is created.
