Turreich

Turreich, officially the Kingdom of Turreich, is a nation in Eldham.

History
Before Eldham was discovered by the colonisers of Rathnir, the Turreichians lived under a monarch. The Kingdom of Turreich was then local power and had many islands under its kingdom. They became a local power by having the most important islands for trade at that time. It was peaceful until the colonisers from Rathnir arrived and sought territorial expansion. Seeking to appease the colonisers due to their perceived danger to Turreich, the Kingdom peacefully gave away multiple islands.

This decision was highly unpopular with the Turreichian citizens which demanded military resistance against the annexation of further territory. While Turreichian leadership believed the colonisers would be satisfied by their concessions, the colonisers saw said concessions as a sign of weakness and invaded. During the battle of Thermonpal, the Turreichian defenders, surprised by the sudden invasion, lost the engagements due to a lack of preperation. After four hours, the Turreichians lost the whole island of Thermonpal. This loss shocked both the population and leadership of Turreich, which began conscriptions to fight of the colonisers.
