Second Valardom of Vulpinia

Vulpinia, Officially the Second Valardom of Vulpinia, formerly Greater Vulpinia is a nation state located in Serrona. It is one of two successor states to the Vulperium alongside The Grand Federation of Eros. It is the main successor state, retaining most of the systems of the Vulperium including its constitution, until the ascension of Valar Marble, where it shortened it's name to Vulpinia and amendments were made to the constitution.

Founding & the Reigns of Westeros & Ilyas
Greater Vulpinia was founded by Valar Westeros Durradayne during the collapse of the Vulperium, during which, over the course of a few weeks, internal strife destroyed the Vulperium. It declared it's existence on January 11, 2023, followed by Eros's declaration a few hours later, ending their union under the Vulperium.

Reign of the Triarchy
After much turmoil, the legacies of the war left Vulpinia in a dark era. Facing a breakup and loss of duchies, Imdy of Vulpinia, Jolly of Batu and Cleany of Westreach and West Vulpinia joined together to form a triarchy. Jolly was known to be a fair and just leader who was keeping everyone together. This was short lived as internal disputes between lower members of government caused Batu to leave Vulpinia (known as Greater Vulpinia). Imdy and Cleany pressed on with running the nation. Great buildings were made and impressive monuments under Imdy's rule of Vulpinia. But as enemies started to become jealous of Vulpinia's success a scheme was made to war Vulpinia. A nation called Leiden sought to destroy Vulpinia. Seeing the government fracture under the pressure of war, Cleany allowed lower members of the government to take up royal court roles to help prevent the war. After the "great uprooting" of the royal Court the diplomacy between Leiden and Vulpinia was successful and war was prevented. In the aftermath Imdy stepped down and Cleany pulled Westreach out of Vulpinia to prevent further conflicts that could lead to another war. His Vulpinia territory of Kallivul remained with Vulpinia and Imdy's palace also became independent.

Reign of Whispo the Protector
During the period following the war, the Valardom of Vulpinia would be involved in a series of transitional periods, with the coronation of different Valars and culminating with the ascension to power of Whispo J. Wittix, son of the decorated Marble Wittix, founder of New Brownwich and wheat farmer. Whispo would be responsible for protecting Vulpinian culture and demographics after the transition period, one of Whispo's greatest achievements was the founding of Undervul, the largest Vulpinian city since the abandonment of Aroforn. Other notable achievements of Whispo were reestablishing peaceful communications with the USSE and establishing a geopolitical support network for Vulpinia.

Whispo's reign would end shortly before the AWE declared war on the Kingdom of Eros. During this time, the acting Valar Cleany would petition Vuleria to vassalize Vulpinia and fight against the AWE.

Reign of Cleany the Warlord
As interim Valar, Cleany knew this reign would be short so he acted fast. He commanded his soldiers from Westreach to aid Vulpinia in the defensive effort of both Vulpinia and Eros. He established diplomatic lines to allies in Tortuga, poedogia, Ashai and Vuleria for defense. Much debate and talks lead to a Vassalization treaty with Vuleria that both saved Vulpinia from an immediate attack from the AWE and served as the foundation for the alliance that would defeat the AWE. Cleany was noted for his major input on the Military infrastructure and war materials (potions,swords and armor) making enough fully enchanted sets for 52 soldiers. His reign ended after an internal argument over a suspected traitor he found lead him to step down. He returned to religious duties as Bothiv and front line military services for Vuleria.

Reign of Ixtab the Restorer
In light of the war, Ixtab Yolcotl, daughter of Nuncio and younger sister of Brock Yolcotl, would pass a vote within the royal court of Vulpinia that would solidify her as Grand Valar. She was the main regent of Vulpinia during times of war, and has established herself as a figure who seeks to restore the greatness of the Vulpur people, publishing different documents about the Vulpurology, history and religion of the Vulpur people.

Leadership
While the constitution was amended, the governmental structure of the Vulperium remained the same in the transition back into Vulpinia. Under the Valar, who has absolute authority, the Vice Valar is elected, and the Vierl is the heir to the throne.

Along with this a Head Diplomat and Grand Marshal exist, to handle foreign affairs and command the military, respectively.

The Royal Assembly consists of the aforementioned leaders and land owners. It acts as the legislative body, and has the power to remove Valar, Vice Valar or Vierl from their positions. They also elect new ones in such cases.

Vulpurology
Vulpurology: A comprehensive study on the Vulpur people, is a book containing an in depth study of the Vulpur people. It was influential book series and it's original published version was one of the key factors leading to the foundation of Vulpinia. The following is an extract from the the Vulpurology: A comprehensive study on the Vulpur people - 1st Edition authored by Nuncio Yolcotl: "The scarcity of unified Vulpur groups during antiquity caused a demographic collapse when these groups failed to cope with the crisis, leading all Vulpur people into a period of darkness and imminent extinction. The modern state of Vulpinia was created with the intention of safeguarding the Vulpur race from a calamity such as that which struck our predecessors, as well as the constant harassment and intolerance of groups, such as humans. The importance of recognizing each other as part of a group places us in an environment where everyone can develop freely, independent of each other, but close enough to care for each other. We must show ourselves as the true caretakers of everything related to our people: our culture, our religious views, our state, and our race. Once we have obtained this, we can rest assured that everything we have built will pass to posterity, achieving justice for the past mistakes of our ancestors by committing ourselves to our people. This is my personal vision of what it was like to found Vulpinia, my mission for the Vulpur people, and the short- and long-term goals of my research." -Nuncio Yolcotl
