The state was unique for being an elective monarchy. It is also known by the name Varmerien, or Vasterien.

However, the rise of powerful Empires surrounding western Nieden (Escharia, Yimmu-Audal, Bardonia and the Sterling Crownlands) pushed the Vasteri into unification. Corthaidh was chosen as the capital of the Kingdom since it was the most powerful town and the center of the pro-escharian parties.
