Areveyi

Areveyi is a Shahdom in the form of a constitutional monarchy, in the Mid-West of Eldham. It is part of the Kingdom of Anglunia.

Founding
The Capital city of Areveyi, Bagrat was founded on June 3rd, 2021, by the former Shah of Areveyi Artof. Artof was able to purchase the land that the city sits on from Lechja who willingly allowed him to settle after peaceful negotiations. The city quickly gained hard working citizens who were all unified under the desire to make the city rival those found in Rathnir.

Early Struggles
The city of Bagrat was weakly defended, and so bandit raids were common to the settlement. During theses times it was decided that a city wall should be built. Shah Artof gave the task to one of his citizens Echo who non-stop built the walls that surround the city today. During these early days, the Andoran-Lechjan War happened, in which the nation participated in, coming into the war on the side of Lechja.

With the great influx of settlers, many nations were dealing with squatters. Areveyi was not an exception, and after diplomacy broke down with the squatter group known as Oblock, war with the squatters broke out. During a pre-emptive strike on Bagrat, Echo was attacked, but with the help of friendly bandits the attackers were repelled. After the failed attack the squatters gave up and unconditionally surrendered to Areveyi.

Steps Forward
Areveyi would continue for the next several months in relative peace as its citizens built the Grand Palace of Bagrat, the southern gates, the small council building as well as many other buildings and roadways throughout the city.

During this time, the Shah Artof went out into the world seeking a religion that was worthy of calling Bagrat its home. His journey took him across the grand sea to the old world of Rathnir where he made his way to the nation of Solisios and brought back the religon of Lux.

After this epiphany, Artof made it his goal and the role of every following Shah of Areveyi to make the city a religious bastion that would contain all the possible religions and find harmony between all peoples. The opportunity to be a religious beacon of light in the chaotic darkness of the warring Eldham was an oppurtunity the Shah could not refuse.

Artof soon constructed the first temple in Bagrat which was dedicated to the goddess Lux.

Tragedy
On September 7th 2021, Tragedy struck the Gracedom as it's Shah Artof, suddenly and without warning passed his scepter to his second in command Echo and left the server for personal reasons. The nation was fell into a state of disarray. As much as Echo tried, the nation like many others fell into a time of chaos. The start of the schoolyear IRL had brought chaos to the once populated city of Bagrat. Construction halted, and finding any citizen during daylight became near impossible.

Areveyi was not the only nation to struggle, as many other nations began to fall into the clutches of semi-active nations.

Hope in Darkness
It was at this time that Shah Echo was approached by a close ally from the Soolianic Congregation, BlockNutBoi. Areveyi was offered to join a fledgling alliance know as the Greater Eldham Alliance Reach or G.E.A.R. With the opportunity to stave off aggressive nations, and to give himself enough time to sort through the pieces of the once booming nation, Echo accepted the offer, and became one of the six founding nations.

Disrepair and Union
The Greater Eldham Alliance Reach failed to bring life back to the Gracedom of Areveyi, and on December 21st, 2021, Shah Echo announced the Gracedom's acceptance into the Kingdom of Anglunia, with The Grace of Bagrat becoming a city of the nation, and Shah Echo giving up his title and replacing it with that of Aellonsyr.

The citizens of Bagrat worked hard to be accepted into their new nation, with citizens building roads, making maps, and running for senator in the elections. Shortly after the elections, wherein citizen Tariq of Bagrat was elected to the Vindyi, Aellonsyr Echo announced that he would be passing his scepter- not to the next in line, however. He instead chose the senator, Tariq Aljaradh, to represent Bagrat's interests.

Rebuilding
Within his first sennight of being Aellonsyr, Tariq reinstated the title of Shah and pledged to bring Bagrat to the glory Shah Artof had dreamed of, and to make the desert town the finest jewel in Anglunia's crown.

Shah Artof
Shah Artof ruled from June 3rd until his abdication from the throne on September 7th. During his reign the foundations of Bagrat were built, including the grand palace of the Shahs.

Shah Echo
Shah Echo ruled from September 7th until his abdication on January 25th, when he set off on a pilgrimage. The stability of the nation continued under his rule.

Shah Tariq
Shah Tariq Aljaradh reluctantly accepted the title after receiving the unexpected news at a dinner for the newly elected Vindyi, on January 25th.
