The Empire of Seahaven or the Kingdom of Seahaven was founded when the Osteri Plagosi Trading Company and Seaside-Baronov united to make one state and one government to be stronger.

Origins
Please refer to the following articles for the history of Seaside-Baronov prior to the Empire.

Preceded By: Seaside-Baronov

The Start of Seahaven
At the start of Seahaven on March 9th, 2022. O.P.T.C and Seaside-Baronov united to make the Maritime Empire of Seahaven. Where all of the governments of the two nations worked together to secure the nation together more due to the O.P.T.C having a different government than Seaside-Baronov. However the new empire would work together and found a new style of government to make everyone happy due to it introducing ideas from both governments into one. The new government also had to introduce themselves to the Northeastern Rathnir Pact or the NERP alliance.

The End of the Empire
Before the Empire ended, O.P.T.C and Seaside-Baronov have worked pretty well with the leaders of both nations having a good bond, so with this growth, there were plans to make a new town near the city of Hollenkreis. However this plan was disturbed when the NERP alliance declared war against Veldion, a former NERP member for having old Plagatean members in their government. During this war, the leaders of Seahaven didn't really want to get too involved in the war due to how bloody it will be and how toxic it was. So during this somewhat neutrality, Seahaven continued to try and build their new town.

Adino and North went to Hollenkreis to search the area. During the trip Adino suggested to clean up the unclaimed chunks of the area which was filled with corrupted netherrack and a corrupted church which belonged to an old cult called the Bloodstone Cult. So Adino tore it down due the cult worshipping demons which is frowned upon by Adino's religion of Soleannen. But then the old O.P.T.C leader, Edd. Got mad at Adino for destroying the old church and so the current leader of O.P.T.C also got mad. Causing the empire to break and O.P.T.C declared independence.

The Veldion War
After the O.P.T.C declared independence. O.P.T.C left all Plagosi affairs entirely until the end of the Veldion War. And due to this new independence, what remains of the Empire had now became weaker and now with a huge war lurking around the corner, the King of Baronov talked to the Empress of the Lunari Empire.

The both leaders have talked about a possible vassalage of Seahaven into the Lunari Empire, but this was mostly to troll the NERP alliance which were at this point worried about the war and who they could trust. So Seahaven joined the Lunari Empire as a troll on March 23. 2022. This troll did what was intended and it trolled a lot of people, Seahaven would remain as a Lunari vassal until after the Veldion War as both sides met at fought at the Battle of Azadi, which resulted in a Veldion victory and causing the NERP alliance to disband.

The Kingdom of Seahaven
After the Veldion war, Seahaven decided to end it's trolling with the Lunari Empire on March 27th, 2022. Joining it's old allies of Aurora Novum or Novia as a vassal. But at this point. The people in the Empire didn't really know what to do. The Empire had fallen apart so Seahaven renamed itself to the Kingdom of Seahaven with it reverting back to the old government with a few changes. However the Kingdom would fall into more problems as the new king of Seaside, Nik907. Gave the town of Skadovsk independence without consent of the other government members.

So for weeks, Skadovsk new liege, Kartek, Has disputed the Skadovsk islands from Seahaven until a treaty was signed on April 19th 2022. But it was not the only problem the kingdom faced. There was also now the new rule of Aatyeli that they had to obey. With the trolling of the Lunari Empire severely souring Seahaven's allies opinion on them. Seahaven was in multiple plots of being invaded and killed by their allies.

The Avium Federation
The Avium Federation was a federation made up of the Plagosi Nations of Novia, Solitudinem, Zendenia, Nova-Regna and O.P.T.C. With nations of Canisa and Seahaven becoming vassals due to their previous vassalage with Novia and Zendenia.

The Kingdom of Seahaven wasn't informed of the federation until last minute causing the government of Seahaven to anger and with Veldion becoming Chumon Ito/Plagatean Regency. There became more of a threat to the federation as war was brewing, so during its vassalage to the Avium Federation. Seahaven decided to work on its self and started remodeling its towns and a King of Seahaven talked to the leader of Avium, Ad. ad agreed to give Seahaven leadership and rights in the federation as long Seahaven is committed to the Avium cause.

However directly after the town of Arlin, an old city left abandoned in the nation of Solitudinem, Avium wanted its leader to be arrested and kicked from the Avium Federation which caused the start of the Arinovla/Arlin War.

The Arinovla War/ Arlin War
The Arinovla War began on May 14th 2022. With the First battle of Arlin began the next day. This battle was between the town of Sand and the town of Arlin and while the battle was hard fought. Arinovla or Arlin came out with the victory. With this victory, on May 17th 2022 Arinovla declared independence with Nova-Regna and Seahaven following afterwards. The Kingdom of Seahaven was now independent. With it making close friends with Nova-Regna afterwards. However Avium still wanted to kick the leader of Arlin out. So the Second Battle of Arlin commenced.

The Second Battle of Arlin was quite controversial with the lag at the time being so bad people were logging out and people were falling through the map. It got to the point when in the middle of the battle, it was cancelled. The two sides began planning a new date for the battle but on the 23rd of May. A somewhat peace treaty was signed called "The Plagosi Solution" with Avium surrendering and letting Arinovla go independent and the town of Sand to fall under The Horde military occupation. The Arinovla War was over, causing a new era for Seahaven and Plagos.

The Return of the Exiles
4 months ago was when the Seaside-Baronov Civil War ended, St. Acol and more of his supporters were exiled from the nation and lived amongst other nations after Acol's Seaside defeat. However Acol return with his March of Exiles demanding the Kingdom of Seaside back from Seahaven. This demand did cause conflict within the nation as squatters/town owners took advantage and started declaring their independence from the Kingdom of Seahaven.

With this the newly elected General Assembly decided to vote on to joining the Lunari Empire due to their old and current ties with the nation. This new vassalage caused stability within the nation and Lunaris helped with most issues due to their powerful position in the world of Rathnir.

Due to this, St.Acol Rebellion fell apart as all nations supporting him left him and mercenary groups refuse to help him due to the war now being against Lunaris and her allies.

Vassal of Lunaris
With Seahaven under the banners of the Lunari Empire, they started to get back on their feet, Making relations and strengthening themselves for the day they return to be independent. This work paid off as in the coming days, Seahaven experienced a sort of renaissance with Seaside being filled to the brim of new citizens, new developments and studies and new programs and expansions into the Seahaveni culture.

Seahaven would make an alliance with the Kingdoms of Myrtana and Sandonia within the Lunari Empire called the Archipelagic Economic Alliance (AEA). The point of this alliance was to help each other out within the empire with trading supplies and helping the other towns develop.

On July 20th, 2022. Myrtana and Sandonia joined Seahaven to easier manage some topics and materials.

The AEA
Although the original purpose of the AEA was to have good relations with the inner states and trade materials with each other. The Kingdom of Myrtana decided to take it further and plan for a rebellion. The King of Myrtana was planning onto using the states within the AEA as a rebellion center and launch a full on revolution and trigger a Lunari Empire collapse with the states leaving the empire. Myrtana tried and tried but kept failing as Sandonia didn't really want to rebel and Seahaven didn't really either as a rebellion while the kingdom was growing would be stupid so the AEA somewhat disbanded.

The Seaside Queen
ZMW7, the King of Seaside died on September 2nd, 2022. Leaving his Kingdom to his wife, Intergers. However at this point in time, Intergers had made a reputation of herself to the Lunari Empire as a practical loose cannon who had tried to get the Empire of Lunaris allies to turn on it as so Seahaven could be free, and also for things she would say about the empire. So the day ZMW7 gave up his throne, the empire somewhat demanded Seahaven to find a new queen or war. Intergers talked with Blanii and both came up with a compromise. Marino, the last member of the Von-Blarg dynasty at the time would be regent until Intergers could return. However Intergers was later revealed by some citizens they were being kicked out for no reason. The General Assembly voted on an impeachment and it was also revealed Intergers tried bribing some of the members. However the impeachment passed and the Queen of Seaside was out and Seaside no longer had a monarch.

The Last Von-Blarg
With the void of no monarch for Seaside, it seemed obvious that the new Regent of Seaside, Marino. Should be the new Monarch, after all he was the last Von-Blarg, the Seaside Royal family. So preparations were made to make Marino the last monarch of Seaside, re-establishing the Diarchy and giving the Seasiders a new leader to have. With all the major progress going on in Seaside, all Marino has to do was to maintain its growth. However problems arose more specifically, IRL reasons and the relationship with Lunaris. The role of Monarch of Seaside on Marino was a lot more harder.

The Jarldom of Bar
During Seahaven's time as a Lunari Vassal, it explored its own religion and with it, they found that the spirits of Krellr Gqfugr have reawakened and so the Battle of the Faith events happened where the citizens of Seahaven and other lands had to explore forgotten tombs and crypts to either seal the spirits back where they came from or make their religion the dominant one in Seahaven, however the Battle ended in a Krellr Gqfugr victory and the Jarldom of Bar was established, destroying the diarchy as the King of Seaside, Marino ran off.

During the Jarldom of Bar era, the General Assembly was disbanded and replaced with the old Baronovian council which whom members were appointed and not elected, however in the later weeks of the Jarldom of Bar, the Jarldom started facing a lot of problems, more importantly problems with Lunaris as both sides seem have angered the other, with this came the Myrtana Revolution where Myrtana declared independence from Lunaris and the city of Baronov was dragged into it through trickery by the revolutions organizer, Inosid. Lunaris beat Myrtana by a landslide as one of members in the revolution was a spy.

This affected Baronov greatly however as the city of Baronov now remained under the control of Inosid who had also taken the entire Jarldom's treasury. Inosid kept the city until Lunaris gave him payment and retook the city, however to punish the Jarldom for also somewhat participating in the revolution, Baronov was never given back to the Jarldom of Bar but under direct Lunari control.

After, the King of Baronov and Jarl of Bar, North Norcician retired and gave up his crown to his daughter-in-law, Cheezus as the original Baronovian Successor had died. And the former King of Baronov sailed away to live out the rest of his life.

The New Era
After the retirement of North, Cheezus became the new sole Jarl of Bar but later reverted it back to the High Kingdom of Seahaven with her as Queen. With this however, not a whole lot happened as Cheezus tried hard to regain the city of Baronov back for Seahaven but failed. There also came the job of her primary title of Queen of Aurea which came with a whole other set of stuff to do. So Seahaven sort of sat in a limbo, it became inactive and was left in a sort of ruin as the Kingdom sort of collapsed and Seaside being greifed and raided. Losing its grip on it's other towns as Lunaris had taken the Nation Claim too. With no money left due to Inosid and barely any people. The Council thought if there was a way out of this. Maybe there is as activity started to pick up again to help repair Seaside from its current state.

The Commonwealth of Ancora
On January 25th, 2023. The Council of Seahaven had decided to move into a new era. Rebranding the kingdom to the Commonwealth of Ancora. While still being under the queenship of Cheezus, the council was being manged by CaptainNorth370 as he had returned from his retirement to help out the nation relive again.

Politics
Seahaven has followed the traditions of its predecessor, Seaside-Baronov. It was a diarchy with a chosen General Assembly, But after a few reforms. The General Assembly became an elected position from where all Seahaven residents and choose to run for and vote on instead of the old tradition of the monarchs choosing the new members of the General Assembly.
