Anoshphéy

The Shyhenéy íl dé Anoshphéy (Neo-Anoshphite), or The Duchy of Anoshphey (Traveller's tungue) is a intergrated duchy and vassal of the Empire of Yimmu-Audal, streaching from the Northern points of the Geshem Bay, all the way to the Northern border with Escharia, And from the deserts of Theiotokos, to the isle of Shiny. It's a multicultural Duchy, that is home to many people, towns and heroes of the recent era in Yimmu-Audal history.

History of Anoshphéy
The global history of Anoshphéy mostly follows the main global history of the Empire of Yimmu-Audal, but some events are unique to the duchy. The history of the duchy has been shared and saved, through tales and folklore, with most of the recent history and events being well documented by players.

Foundation, pre-trillium war and The Social-Audal Union history
Most of the early foundation of early Anosphite society is lost, but we know the early Anserii people's founded their first settlements around the northern peninsula of the Geshem Bay, arround lake Carrowmare. These first settlers were lead by their leader, and the first regarded leader of the Duchy, DrLunkin, who established the first settlements of Yirs-Rock. In the other regions, the early ancestors of the Idani and the Caedean people's began migrating to the region, forming their respective tribes and towns alongside the Anserii. In the beginning, the Caedean and Idani tribes stayed out of Anoshphite regions domestic situation but with time, as Yimmu-Audal came to rule the region, they were slowly entered into the duchy administrative power.

It did not long for the Anserii tribes to unite under the lead of Lunkin I, who then established the first nation in the region, known as the Social-Audal Union. Here the teachings of Communisim began taking its roots within the state. The Social-Audal Union was quickly intergrated into the rapidly expanding 1st Empire of Yimmu-Audal, of which it was allowed to retain its laws and structure. This intergration would indirrectly lead to the formation of the region and Duchy of Anoshphéy. It was durring this time that the small settlement of Jirn was settled near the Audalad town of Amos.

Things were relativly peacefull in the region, until the reign of Dalatra and the coming of the Trillium wars. Lunkin had a large distrust towards Dalatra and her own political beliefs. This lead the Social-Audal Union to rebel against Yimmu-Audal with, with leaders such as Ean-Carweather, being one of the rebellion leaders. The rebellion existed for a good amount of time, until the rebel leaders were defeated and Ean-Carweather was executed in the Urnu-Arrak lava pit. After this, the rebellion was re-intergrated, with reprensentation, but after this period, the power of Communisim slowly faded away from the region. Soon after retaking Yirs-Rock, Lunkin, togther with CrazyChaosCaleb, a legendary founder of the origional Yimmu-Audal on Jagdas, founded the town of Yirenes. The Anserii people began developing a fear of foreign cultures, which would stick with it till the arrival of the Poncyréans

After the peace negotiations and the 2nd treaty of Tlahatl, Lunkin decided to lead the Anosphite people into war, with Yimmu-Audal against Escharia and Sikkeost, but it would not be long after, when the Escharian ocupation of the lands of Audal happened.

Theios-Essukdal, The Cultural Schisim of Anoshphéy, Theioisim and the rise of the new Anoshphite identity
Nothing much is know about Anoshphéy durring the Occupation era, but the SAU legacy on the region, had cemented that the region would become a region, when the new reunified Kingdom of Theios-Essukdal formed. One of Lunkin I decendents Lunkin II was given the title, Duke of Anoshphéy, and the region got a grand renaissance along with the Audalad regions. Cities that took root in this period were cities such as: Konushum, Siroba, Pheonix and Ersetu.

It was here in the slow reconstruction that one more culture began migrating into the region. These people were known as the Poncyréans(Pontaniedians), who came from the north, in the region previously ruled by Escharia. Its with the arrival of the Poncyréans into the duchy that the cultural schisim of Anoshphéy began. When the Poncyréans, lead by Pontéos, began constructing the city of Postrom Nova, Lunkin demanded the constructions of shrines to the in qoute "Ancestrals" and for daily sacrifizes of bread to them, for the Poncyréans to settle there. Even with the compliance of the Poncyréans, Lunkin decided to ignore the existance of the Poncyréans and some other people from other regional cultures. The Idani and Caedean cultures also got caught in the crossfire of the strict anti-foreigner stance of Lunkin, with him having similar harsh stances towards them. It's only when it became apparent to Lunkin, that the Duchy was becoming multicultural, that he stepped a bit back with his cultural tensions, towards other cultures. This allowed the duchy to have many new towns and villages of Idani, Caedan and Poncyréan majorities, establishing their cultures in the Anoshphite region and the Theiosian Realm.

Even with the heavy Cultural tensions, the Duchy was united in spirit, under the religious unity of Theios. The worship of Theios had been preaty prevelant. The so-called "Funny chair" icon was created and used by the Theiosian Inquisition to convert the non-belivers. Theioisim was very succesfull in Anoshphéy during the Kingdom of Theios-Essukdal, with many of the inquisitors, living in the duchy and operating around the region.

One of the greater achivements of the Duchy was the foundation of the megacity Anoshpiae. The megacity was a idea that came about after the unification of the towns of Jirn and Postrom Nova. The leaders of Pontéos and Lee, talked together with the Duke, Lunkin II about the potential of making a megacity, to rival Urnu-Arrak. Lunkin agreed to the idea, and signed onto the Treaty of Carromare, formatting the megacy of Anoshpiae. Today the megacity has gone through many phases, but today its name has cemented around the name "Jirnoshphéy" or sometimes Jirn for short. The megacity contained the towns of Postrom Nova, Jirn, Yirs-Rock, Serenes, Erebus and Aeeindaroon, is ruled by the City Council.

The health of Duke Lunkin II was deteriorating with the trial against him, made by his wife Sheepy I, whom he killed during the trial. Lunkin was then thrown of the side of a mountain, lit ablaze, thought to have died, yet he survived. It did not take him long to be look as, not fit to rule, by Mistic and the Government of Theios-Essukdal. This lead to his abdication and the rising star Pontéos I taking the title Duke of Anoshphéy. Pontéos would definatively take the steps to end the segregation and mistreatment of cultures, and began the moves towards a more multicultural duchy. This gave all the cultures equal rights, and the Idani, Caedaen, Poncyréan and Anserii was seen as equal. Pontéos, starting his rule quite far into his life, would soon after die, due to his depression and acension. This lead to the acension of the current duke Nattynuke.

Anoshphéy durring the 2nd Empire of Yimmu-Audal, and its expansion
With the new rule of Nyles I and with the shift of Theios-Essukdal into the 2nd Empire of Yimmu-Audal, the duchy also changed with it. The previous powerful Theiosian faith, began losing its power, since many of the inqusitors left the faith. This lead to the eventual athiestic stance in the court of the duchy, not recognizing a main faith, but still allowing the practice of faith for the citizens. The court and faith was also seperated,following these moves.
