Bingo Bon Annover

Bingo Bon Annover is the Patriarch of the Annover Family, the unifier of the Askonian Empire & the Annovers, and an Askonian official. Bingo is known to be in the top 100 richest men in all of Rathnir, inheriting much of his wealth from his deceased father, Jingo. Bingo has seen many things on Rathnir from the rise and fall of foreign nations, to being a spark that ignited Syltor.

Origin Story
Bingo Bon Annover (IGN: Bingo_69420) has had one of the most successful careers within the country of Andorn, along with one of the most interesting stories to tell. Bingo's Story starts with a fascinating tale of betrayal and lust. His father, Jingo von Hannover, partially succeeded in a coup against the Andorn government headed by Lucius von Savras. This was known as the 2nd Andorn Crisis. After the coup was initially successful, it failed after several hours as Jingo had disappeared. Bingo discovered his father as a different man, not the hero he once knew. He was changed. In Bingo's confused feelings he struck his father down in an act of patricide that would alter the course of his life and the future of Andorn as a whole.

On the Death of Jingo: "It's a somber night in Hannover, after chaos filled the day. Bingo von Hannover, son of Jingo to his mistress Bobo, saw the wrongs his father was committing. He crept up the stairs of the Oreo Castle and approached the bedroom of his father. While in his sleep, Jingo, had the sharpest feeling he felt before, but it was over in an instant. The “Sword of Hannover” was used by Bingo to commit the act of patriotism. Bingo vowed to never walk the path his father did, he would continue the good work of his father, but let the atrocities die with him. Bingo inherited all items, lands, and titles of Jingo."

However, later in his life, after living in the same shoes as his father, Bingo would see why his father did the things he did. Bingo made it his goal to finish what his father had started and vowed to bring Andorn to its knees.

Aftermath of 2nd Andorn Crisis, the Construction of Savras and Beyond
After the death of his father, Bingo sat in the Oreo Castle in the town of Hannover and thought to himself what his future would be like. Like his father before him, Bingo had a deep love for architecture. He would carry the torch for his father’s final project; rebuilding the city of Savras. Savras was the former capital city of Andorn, but it was moved to Orilin.

Bingo would build the entire city to a new generation of glory nearly by himself. His closest friends Bobo and StrikerO were there to help him. Towards the tail end of the construction of Savras, Bingo made a new friend named Robyn. They would quickly become very close friends, Robyn became the only other prominent person to assist in the building of Savras, constructing the gardens there. Because of this, Robyn would become blood brothers with Bingo after spending so much time together. Building Savras is the most substantial architectural achievement of Bingo, but this did not stop him from continuing his building.

Bingo began constructing a new city in southern Bardonia called Bannover which was to be a place of refuge in the result of the fall of Andorn. While always being a part of the nobility, Bingo would start to tire over boring politics and constructing cities. He wanted more excitement in his life and began training to be a fighter with a mercenary named Galrouch, who is a Goblin. Bingo would pay Galrouch so he could defend himself in the noble quests he would hope to find himself on. This would start an even longer relationship between Bingo and the Goblins.

The Creation of the Annover Family
What was originally the Hannover Family, Bingo changed his family name to the Annover Family where he is the Father of the Family, or patriarch. Here he would strengthen ties with his friends through family ties along with strengthening his name and influence. The Annover Family has grown powerful within Andorn, having members in four provinces.

The creation of this family was one of the tools Bingo would use to increase his influence upon the whole country, as well as make himself a potential rival to the throne of Andorn.

A Break in Politics and The Bingmas Holiday
Within Andorn a new religion was born, known as Sannhet. Bingo is a Patron Saint in the religion as he is the beloved “Bingo Claus” during the Bingmas season. Bingo takes on the character of Bingo Claus to spread cheer and joy to all of Rathnir. This holiday was used to bring people together, specifically in Andorn where the country was beginning to polarize.

Andorn's Last Straw & the Creation of the Annover Province
After years spent working for the betterment of Andorn, through the completion of the City of Savras, multiple events held for citizens, and working to improve Andorn relations on an international level, Bingo was casted to the side. After asking the Kaiser for years if he could get the rights to the Savras lands (since they had been built by him and his family) he was repeatedly told no. This angered Bingo as he spent years of hard work to recieve no credit, as the city was supposed to be reverted to the capital city of Andorn, but was given the title back too late.

The Kaiser and now Emperor of Bardonia, Lucius von Savras, met a new woman. Her name was Oranje, and she was adopted by Lucius to become his daughter and heir to the throne. This series of events happened very quickly, as Lucius planned to abdicate the Andorn throne soon to focus on the larger empire. This meant the Andorn was going to be under the rule of a new and foreign leader. This news was not popular with nearly all of Andorn's higher government, many of whom were in the Annover Family. After getting the final word from Lucius that he was abdicating the throne and it would be passed officially off to Oranje, Bingo and his family began to act. Lucius left Andornic tradition and law behind, as the new Kaiser was supposed to picked by a group of electors to ensure that the nobility of Andorn was happy with their new leader. However, this did not happen as Lucius wanted his family name to continue ruling the country.

Before the coronation of Oranje, the last bill Lucius signed into effect was the new map of Andorn and her provinces. With the creation of the Annover Province, Bingo and the Annovers had an official claim to a chunk of land in case their plans for the future did not go well.

The Coronation Coup and the Collapse of Syltor
The first coronation of Oranje von Savras was thwarted by the general population of Andorn and the true coup artists, the Annovers. However, Oranje and Lucius heard news of the coup minutes before the coronation and did not show up. Instead, they ordered the dissolvement of Andorn, having all of the provinces go independent. This was not the original plan for Bingo, as he lost communication with much of the population of Andorn, but he would find a way to make ends meet. The largest obstacle here was the creation of the "Black Dandelion Order" which held a coup in Bardonia at the exact same time as Bingo held his coup, which created an opportunity for these Bardonians to kick Lucius out of power. An added layer to this was there were two parties in Bardonia trying to gain power, and both attempted to get Bingo to join their side of the coup to have the power of Andorn with them. These two parties ended up joining together and thus formed the final government of the Black Dandelions. The coup by both Bingo and the Black Dandelion Order did not last however, as a coalition of southern states vowed to destroy the Black Dandelion Order if they did not dissolve.

With Andorn and Bardonia being in a collapsed state, the times were uncertain for nearly everyone. Lucius attempted to come back to Andorn, after being kicked out of Bardonia. He would try to reinstall the status quo in Andorn, but after many of the former citizens got a taste of independence, they would not let it go. The provinces of Annover, Wivamovia, Askonia, and Ostia would not return to Andorn.

The Cold War of Syltor and Unification between Askonia and the Annovers
With many tensions in the former Andorn states, war was on the horizon. Andorn had never been in a weaker state, they lost many citizens and allies after the coup at Oranje's coronation. However, Lucius wanted to retake his former country by force, and it was known these were his ambitions. After holding a meeting between Gobbo and Bingo, they decided to stage a fake war where the Goblins of Askonia would take over the Annover state. This was really a unification of the two, but was meant to appear as a sign of strength by the Askonians. This false war scared Andorn and Lucius, as they did not know the true power of Askonia.

The unification of Askonia and the Annovers would cause a power imbalance in Andorn, as these were likely the two most powerful former states of Andorn, and they had now become one. For months, the semi-reformed Andorn would be looking at Askonia with fear of potential invasion. This fear was not for nothing, as the Askonians and Annovers both wanted to reclaim the Jewel of Andorn, which was the city of Savras.

The Surrender of Andorn and the Return of Savras
After months of planning and preparation, the time had come for the battle for Savras. Lucious von Savras left Andorn months ago as he could not see any chance of victory, and there was already more infighting within the state after Oranje become the next Kaiserin. After the Andorn government has hurt one of their officials, Salos von Kendal, he took all of the northern provinces of Andorn besides Orilin and seceded. This caused almost all of Andorn to be lost, except for the city of Savras. After this blow to Andorn, Oranje von Savras also left the throne and retreated south to reunite with Lucius. Charlie von Savras was the final leader and Kaiser of Andorn, however this title meant nearly nothing anymore.

Learning of the news of the secession in Andorn, Askonia and the Annovers decided it was time for war. After a declaration of war was sent to the desk of Charlie von Savras, they could not believe the news. Charlie knew they could not win a war, so they sold Savras to Norfthorn. Charlie surrendered and left Andorn land behind, just like the last two rulers of the country. Norfthorn however, was friendly with Askonia and gave Savras to Bingo and the Goblins as a gift. The Treaty of Savras was signed, Norfthorn gave Savras back to its rightful owner and builder, Bingo bon Annover. It was a long journey, but the final goal was achieved. The hard work Bingo put in finally paid off after years of tireless effort. The city of Savras would be renamed to Greater Hannover, and the two cities that the Annovers had built were connected into one. Savras was the name of a family that no longer had a city, and the name of the city deserved a change. The story of the city of Savras and its eventual change to Greater Hannover is one that changed the course of North West Rathnir forever.
