Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Border Dispute

The Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Border Dispute is an ongoing border dispute between the Aurlûnor Velande and the Fourth Tsardom of Ryzan that stems all the way back from the dissolution of the Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Empire.

Background
The formation of the Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Empire had saw multiple border rewrites to help accompany the Aurlûnor Velande's territorial integrity, and to give equal footing to both sides. The proposal of splitting southern Andorn, as well as the Eastern Territories, which was known as the "Territory of Takumakken" at the time, were unorganized due to it's sudden integration into the empire, and the results of the Partition of Takumakken were discussed between Sareariel Lelya-Earcala and Tsar Toss I, as well as members of the Ryzani Royal Council. A map was previously made which showed the Velande owning most of the Eastern territories, until the Discord was subsequently deleted, following the weeks after the dissolution of the Empire. The Chancellor's Hands, in which the Velereth was apart of as well during this time, allowed the Velande to keep these lands as a result of them dissolving the union between her and Toss, and was apart of the peace negotiations as well as 50,000$.

However, about a few weeks in the agreement, the territories were mysteriously taken back by Ryzan, without payment nor an explanation. As a result, the tensions skyrocketed between the Velande and the newly formed Ryzani-Carthyan Republic. During the first presidency of Josbar in the following declaration of the first Ryzani Republic, he would make it a public declaration, that the top priority, especially after the Velande gained back the eastern territories. He would demand the lands, as well as the acquired territory they gained from the fall of the Dual Monarchy, blaming the entire collapse on the Velande itself. Despite diplomatic efforts to bring the land back, he would declare war anyways. When he was taken out of power, Darrow Carpzov Aasimar-Eckbert would be elected, and would promptly sign the Treaty of Balreska, which saw the drop of claims on both sides, but this was apparently not recognized by the Velande, even though they added it as a condition.

Following the fall of the Second Ryzani Republic, the Velande would not recognize Free Ryzan, and would recognize Jacob Owl as the Tsar of Westreach, due to his faith being also of Twin Dragon, and his promises to negotiate a settlement to returning the eastern territories to the Velande. Claims on the territory appeared again during the Allium-Coalition War, which the Velande would disregard the Treaty of Balreska and promptly sided with Bardonia, and thereafter from declaring neutrality from the conflict.

As of September 19, 2021, the Velande still claims the land directly east of it's borders as an integral part of the former Kingdom of Almador in character, as well as recognizing the Dominion of Ashura's claims of the region as well.

Disputed Territories
The Velande claims the territory directly east of it's territory as Southeastern Tamaka Province and Northeastern Erúme Province, while Ryzani maps shows it as apart of the Freehold of Deutzan with it's capital in Haegiel, also known as Hróncendë, or "East Point" in Aurlûnoren, Desertwind, a Ryzani fortress town once owned by Vet, and Balreska owned by Nikolai Tossovich. A significant population of Celestial Elves and Twin Dragon worshippers live in the region, though the demographics had largely shifted to become more athiest as the country drifted away from religion, and free religious laws being introduced in the region. A Soleannen chapel is located in Haegiel, which has been controversial to the Twin Dragon population there, advocating for it's destruction before it "becomes a majority in the region".

Negotiations

 * In July 2021, the talks between the Free Ryzan government and the Aurlûnor Velande saw them wanting to start dialogue about the disputed region. Earlier talks were recorded back between Jacob Owl and Sareariel Lelya-Earcala saw progress of a full return a month in his reign.
 * In August 2021, the newly elected Josbar has apologized for the actions he had caused leading up to the dissolution of the Empire following the explanation by Coffeeccubus out of character about the whole dissolution of the Dual Monarchy. In terms of improving relations, Josbar has willingly accepted to find a possible way to negotiate the return of the region.

Joint Administration proposal
On September 18, 2021, Coffeeccubus and Josbar once again spoke about this, with multiple maps being proposed to help resolve the dispute. Josbar proposed a Joint-Administration zone, in which both the Velande and Ryzan would own the territory, and allow both sides to practice the law, which included the Velande's laws on heresy within the region. Should a person be caught by a Velande guard breaking the law, they are to be punished by the laws of the Velande, with the same being applied if a Ryzani caught them first. Should they both catch them, they'd be tried by both nations, and decide on what to do with the criminal, and agreed on the fate of the criminal. Jurisdiction would also create a neutral zone known as "Duck Island", which would prospect a canal that would be operated by both governments.

The leader of Bjørn´sberg, alohomora2006, who is also a vassal of the Velande, drew up a map of a possible divide.

There was also an agreement made between the Syltör Rangers, Josbar and Coffeeccubus that the jurisdiction of a town known as "Moto Moto Town" is to be placed under Ranger control.

This proposal would be agreed upon by all parties, but Josbar stated that this would go in effect only if Ryzan wins the civil war.
