Uraka

= Uraka = Due to the nature of Uraka's oral tradition much of its history is lost, and even more of it is disputed.

Neo_Aurelian came to power after being elected consul by majority vote. As one of his first acts as Consul Neo_Aurelian on the 31st of July declared Uraka's independence from Barbossa. The Barbossans were apathetic to or unable to stop the establishment of the Uraki state. After its independance Uraka quickly grew into a regional power gaining respect and admiration from the stated surounding it. Not long after its establishment the Consul Neo-Aurelian was made Emperor by the senate as they viewed the task of ruling to be unfit for the many and thought it best as a right reserved for only a few. With this action the Uraki state transformed from a republic with a senate and a Consul into and empire with an Emperor. Since those early days Uraka has grown and grown, until it became the single largest political entity on Eldhem, having for itself a massive ever expanding sphere of influence and people bowing down to its mighty Emperor.

Early History
Due to this being early history it is shrouded in myth and legend.

The war of the Black Flag
(Link to main article)

Suprisingly the first war Uraka was truely a part of after gaining its independance was a war in which they helped defend Barbossa. Uraka fought bravely to defend Barbossa, ultimately they were unable to turn the tides of war ending with a Barbossan defeat.

The Consortium of Errine
Not long after the War of the Black Flag Uraka became part of the Consortium of Errine, a confederation between the nations of: Titania, Roðinnbrók, Mercury, Barbossa and Uraka. As Uraka laid in the center of the Consotrium they were the main benefactors of the closer coöperation between the nations seeing much of the trade between the stated going though its land.

A Union of many people
As Uraka was going quickly much like the other states of the Consortium of Errine it was perhaps inevitable that some of the states would merge. The first of these mergers was between Uraka and Titania where Uraka absorbed the Titanian state into its wider empire. This happened on the 27th of August and since that day every month on the 27th Union day is celebrated by all the peoples of Uraka. Not long after this union to appease the peoples of the empire a more fleshed out chain of command was created to ensure stability even in absence of the Emperor.

Neo Drakaes Vassalage
With the Rapid growth of Uraka it was no suprise that some states would like to become vassals of Uraka. The first state to formaly request this and be granted vassalage was the state of Zie Drakaen, which upon being granted vassalage was renamed to Neo Drakaes. This vassalage was very fruitfull for the Neo Drakaes as they would now be granted subsidies and protection from bandits and rival states by Uraka.

Aurelian Militairy Reforms and the Uraki Imperial Senate
In the reforms introduced on the 12th of september the Uraki reformed an Uraki Imperial Senate in which different parts of the empire would be able to be represented to the Emperor. This was done for ease of rulership and to lower the amount of time the Emperor had to spent on hearing petitions from township and vassals. This reintroduction of the Senate was combined with The Aurelian Militairy Reforms which detailed the restructioring of the militairy commandchain and the amount of pay each soldier was intitled to depending on their rank.

Union with Druk Yul
As the Uraki Emperor had been maried to the high councilor of Druk Yul for a while now and with the states as inseperable as their rulers they desided to merge the two into one under the banner of Uraka on the 16th of September. This Anouncement was met with loud applause and celebrations from both peoples, who had long since come to see themselves as the same people. This Union would reinforce the precedent set by the Union of Uraka and Titania, showing once again the unity between the people of Uraka and their neighboring peoples.

Pressent Politics
Uraka is as of today still ruled by its one true Emperor, Neo_Aurelian and this does not apear to be changing anytime soon. Neo_Aurelian has many concubines but his primairy wife is Ladyxade. They have several children together (children). Some of these children are too young for politics while others already partake much like their parents. Recently Uraka has started an invasion of the nearby world of Rathnir gaining an important foothold on the world by the name of (Name). This was done not through bloodshed but though diplomacy as Uraka purchaced the land from (State). However Uraka has not come to Rathnir to mearly make peace and friendship with the Rathniri, but also to conquer and subjugate inorder to create the first true interdimensional empire and to prove once and for all Eldhem supremacy over Rathnir.

City's of the empire
The Uraki empire is ruled as a feudal society with many, many, autonomous dependencies, vassals, tributairy states and other dependencies thoughout its varied and rich history. Some of these cities are run like the early empire having a republican style with elections and a senate like (examples). Other cities are run more like the pressent empire with a sole ruler controlling the city. There are ofcourse cities who are not easily fit into either of these catagoties but that is to be expected when administering such a large empire.
