Splitland

Splitland was a monastery on the edge of the Empire of Uldarash. It was a spot of worship for the fox god Siktab.

History
Splitland was founded when its first, and presumably last, head monk Alolanvulpix, found two severed islands in the middle of a lake. He put the two island together and from there began to gather resources. From the resources he gathered he put together a small camp. While working in the dirt, the captain of the Uldarash Empires guard came to question him. In their first exchange he gave the visiter an apple and the visiter in kind gave a potato. In that conversation Alolanvulpix proclaimed the area pacifistic and asked to join the empire. From there Splitland was formally founded on the site of the island, and head monk Allanvulpix was made a count in the Empire of Uldarash.

Splitland would eventually fall in November of 2020, and would cease to exist. The ruins of Splitland would be visible from the surface until November 26th 2021, when they were torn down to build a new city in its place, Leonis. The worship tunnels beneath the monastery are still chalked full of religious artifacts and remnants of the lost site. Following a year of changing borders, splitland eventually landed in the Kingdom of Boulderov. The current possessor of the land is WhimsicalDolphin
