Empire of Aristios

"Ave Aristios!" - TbsDbs 5/29/2021

Pre-Founding
The Kingdom of Yurki was founded by Emporer TbsDbs

Founding
Aristios was founded by TbsDbs in 2021 on the day of the 29th in May. The capital city of Oleapolis was built upon the mountain of Oleaia. Settlers from far and near were in awe at its beauty. Slowly settlers, travelers, visitors, and traders brought up the foundation by Building homes, shops, farms, gardens, and Temples of Worship. It was a melting pot of cultures, religions, and ideals.

The Classical Era
During this Era of Aristios the government was mostly focused expanding into unclaimed lands around it and merging with other smaller nations. Voclaria-Transardacia was the first to merge by treaty. Voclaria-Transardacia was fairly small nation at the time ran by a group of leaders by the names of Pepexcelenta, Towersthetoad and percocet300. Not much is know of the form of government they ruled under most Aristii historians theorize it was a form of federation between local city states. This federation most likely expanded through merging with other city states on the Continent with treaties. Aristios was a small nation during this Era only getting around 25 active citizens, most of the land was vacant and the Oleapolis walls were under construction. TbsDbs was the emperor at this time.

The Post-Classical Era
During this Era Aristios was growing and ended up joining The Northern Lights. Oleapolis walls were near completion, the provinces were growing, In this Era Aristios absorbed primarily Spanish speaking Voclaria-Transardacia and adopted their religion. the Region is now know as Astilla and saw fast development in this Era. TbsDbs was the Emperor of Aristios during this Era.

The Era Of Growth
During this Era Aristios was growing exponentially due to Otto joining Aristios. The active population went up from 20 - 30 to 50 - 60 in a week. Aristios left The Northern Lights and adopted Voclarianism as the state-sponsored religion. TbsDbs resigned and quit Stoneworks, Jaggy assumed the throne. During this time the large province of Sanctus joined the Empire

The Reign of Otto
During this Era Aristios had grown exponentially. The active population went to 100 - 125 during this Era. Otto had assumed the throne as Jaggy wanted to focus on Oleapolis. During this Era Aristios reputation was at an all-time low due to Otto's behavior. Aristios had switched to democracy and adopted a 4-party system. Aristios also joined the Eldham Entente (Triple Entente).

The Aristii Civil War
During this Era Aristios was going through a civil war. This caused a great shift in government Aristios became a full democracy with Inverse as its emperor. During the civil war, Astrya, now known as Azad, as well as Abaddon and Vento seceded as Aristios lost population.

The Early Aristii Republic - Echo's Chancellorship
This Era is characterized by the new Democracy put into place by the Commonwealth. Inverse rules as emperor and Echo as the first Chancellor. Aristios is going through a great inactive crisis at this moment due to many people leaving when the Commonwealth came into power. However, the discord became more organized and Aristios is slowly getting better, but still, only a couple of cities are active. During this time Castellum gains more population, Aristios gains a catgirl mascot "Nyaristios" and Tarxien secedes from the republic.

? Chancellorship
We are currently awaiting the results of the second Chancellor Election

National Geography
The Grand Republic of Aristios is a nation crosses the three continents of Astios, Elastra, and Onthukhan and it borders 7 other nations (13 including Sylvania). Aristios is currently the biggest nation by landmass and one of the biggest economies in Eldham supplying Services and Ore to nearby nations. Aristios is named after the Greek word for excellence and is known as the Nation of Giants due to its spot as the biggest nation by landmass in Eldham.

Local Geography
Aristios is made up of 7 different provinces Castellum, Sanctus, Ameria, Olemeronia, Preyella, KATO/KWEC, and Astillia. Aristios also has two colonies Sylvania in the Southeast of Eldham, and Yurki the birthplace of Aristios

Demographics
Aristios is a melting pot with people from all walks of life, but the first settlers migrated from The Kingdom of Yürki and moved to Eldham in search of a better life. Aristios soon started annexing other nations and gaining the population and culture of the nations they annexed and this is why the nation is so diverse today, although they have stopped annexing land, they have still been growing over the years by buying land, which makes the nation extremely diverse.

A good example of one such culture is the Aristii Dwarves. They're located in the Province of Sanctus and live in the mountains.

Artifacts
An artifact is an object made by a human being, typically an item of cultural or historical interest. In Aristios there are multiple artifacts, each containing cultural or historical significants.

Tear of God
The "tear of god" is an important piece to Aristios culture and history. The "tear of god" was a jewel gifted to Emperor TbsDbs by a benevolent spirit. The tear of God became a symbol in Aristios of good hope since after TbsDbs got the jewel he succeeded in finishing the walls of the capital city even though it was deemed impossible. The "Tear of God" is now kept in a vault sealed away in the capital city of Oleapolis.

The Grimm Stone
The stone is said to have been chipped from the Gate of Night, an ancient gate formed by the Valar as an entrance and exit from Arda into the Void. How the stone was chipped is unknown but the force must have been mighty. The Grimm Stone has been lost to time, nobody knows its whereabouts, some have speculated that it was destroyed but we can't confirm these rumors yet.
