Sun's Break

Sun's Break is the former capital of the Kingdom of Laurentides. It's most famous structure is the Royal Residence which is built atop a large and easily defendable hill. It has a small town with a very unique style of architecture, with tall skinnier sand themed city buildings. The construction of Sun's Break was a major community effort with all members of the royal council (BowMaster, DeathLife, BluesMoon, AdrianHES, PaintedIndigo_, Omega Astra, Morgini_, Gandalf, and MrAstronomic) and the later Gonzors (AsokTheFirst, Dan, Gustavus I and Gustavus II).

The Soleilism Central Temple
The Soleilism Central Temple was built primarily with a practical function at first only being the store room of the town but on the day of the formation of Laurentides it was hastily renovated to become a beautiful piece of Laurentide architecture. And it was the place of worship for all Soleilists in the town, holding the room for the coronation of future monarchs of the nation, and eventually became the resting place of the original royal council should they choose to permanently leave the server. However it is now being rebuilt to be a church of Gregianity.

Fortress de l'éclipse
The fortress was the first thing to be constructed in the new town of Sun's Break. It was built on the ruins of an old unnamed castle, predating known history. The Fortress is made externally of Sandstone and Terracotta but the residents of the Fortress has used a variety of materials for their own rooms. It remains in a state of constant upgrade with the walls regularly being remade or expanded to meet the needs of the new nation. It's maze like internal structure combined with it's location and features make the Fortress easy to defend but nearly impossible to successfully attack and take.

Lore
The ancient history of the capital of Laurentides started the same day the legions of the nation set foot on this new world. Among the first actions said to have been done by the Queen herself are the establishment of the capital, and the edification of its key component: The fortress de l'eclipse, still present to this day. The construction of the capital, as well as its other important structures such as the Soleism temple, centerpiece of the ancient faith, would be quick and well done. Buildings were lifted from the ground using nearby resources, blending the city into the desert. The defenses of the town didn’t take much time to be lifted, either, as the security was quickly achieved with towers and stones worthy of the capital’s size.

The Early Days
At the beginning of the town Morgini and other members of the royal council began working on the Fortress de l'éclipse keeping the original castle ruins as a confusing defence. Early farms were made and the first wood farm was made. Not much progress was made outside of the Fortress. The 'early days' lasted from the 25 to the 27 of December 2021.

The Laurentide Nation
At midday on the 27.12.2021, Fergey_cat66 joined becoming a member of the town and immediately was set to work on mining (something he was surprisingly devoted to). Throughout the evening Morgini, Fergey_cat66 and AdrianHES worked to gather as much as possible with other 13, working on other sources of income or occasionally mining. With their hard work done that very night the nation of Laurentides was formed in the Central Temple. Upon becoming a nation they quickly established diplomatic relations with surrounding nations leading them to a brief verbal conflict with Lorent which came to an end on the claim that they surrender land to the neighbouring Lorentish town. From there, the town joined Dande, Chevkri.

The Forgotten Ages
After the loss of the entire royal council, Sunea fell into a gap in the history books with very little knowledge over the events during that time. However it is generally recognised that this period ended on the 25.05.2023 with the proclamation of the Gonzorcrat.

The Times Of Hope
In the time since the fall of the royal council the world had grew around Sunea and the land was abandoned and lost in a flood of new nations. However Sunea was purchased by the emerging nation of Kutaiyara for a large lump sum of cash and was given its first Gonzor Bob. When he took his new position he rapidly modernised Sunea over the course of several days bringing it up to abide with the Kutaiyaran Constitution. However Bobs reign didn't last long due to his inactivity with him abdicating his position on the 26.06.2023 ruling for only 31 days, he was succeeded by AsokTheFirst that same day.

The First Dark Age
However Sunean bad luck continued as Asok soon became inactive himself and the Sunean population dropped by 25% and the active population dropped by 83%. This was a terrible time for Sunea and it was even thought to be the end of the town with plans to sell it going around.

The First Golden Age
The Hradriac Council (The Governing Body of Kutaiyara) began looking for new Gonzoral Candidates and selected Gustavus Adolphus Bull I on 22.09.2023, in his reign he made massive reforms building the trans-Kutaiyara railroad, the First-Lords Admiralty, the foundations for the future NIC factory and the construction of the Musketeer line of Naval Ships including the SSCS ATHOS, SSCS PORTHOS and SSCS ARAMIS.

The Second Dark Age
However on the 25.09.2023 after ruling over Sunea for only 3 days Gustavus I died in a mining collapse, despite this Gustavus I is often regarded as the 3rd greatest leader in Sunean history despite having the shortest reign of any leader. His son Gustavus Adolphus Bull II immediately assumed his position however was limited in his duties and was only officialy proclaimed and recognised as Gonzor on the 25.10.2023. During this time Sunea was stagnant and several public buildings falling into disrepair and was often described as the "Least stable town in Kutaiyara".

The Second Golden Age
On the 25.10.2023 Gustavus II was proclaimed Gonzor of Sunea and was anointed in the Soleilism Central Temple and made a Rotenkahnum of Gregianity. Upon his ascension he had the First-Lords Admiralty demolished and had the Cumumik Plairihemu (The largest mountain in Sunea) fully quarried away. This angered a former member of the Kutaiyaran Government Sinkturtle who entered into a debate with Gustavus II and eventually conceded his position. He then built the Second-Lords Admiralty where the mountain once stood and continued his fathers legacy by beginning construction of the NIC. He diverged in many ways from his Father though and constructed a Naval Academy and halted all planned naval vessels to instead focus on the local economy and in his reign the population grew by 38%. Gustavus still rules Sunea to this day and holds many titles, medals, roles and commendations, this is why he is often seen as the second greatest ruler of Sunea only after Empress Morgini.
