Soon the king learned that the island belonged to the sterling crownlands and forged a plan to gain independence.

Independence and post-independence.
After they settled in the Sterling Crownlands, they thought they had built everything on the island; the Crownlands had done nothing with the land, so why not declare independence, they thought? Soon they formed a militia, they wrote a declaration of Independence, and prepared for the worst. In the end, sterling accepted their declaration of independence and allowed them to live on the island Much To The Suprise of Everyone.

After they gained independence, The King began growing tired of rule because of his people arguing over which direction the kingdom should take. Soon, a group of Vallian citizens which settled the isles known as the "Four Sisters", just north of Leeps, attacked Luperkania and declared independence from Valle. However The King had returned by that point and lead his men in battle, crushing their attempt. During the War The King's Brother Gold Mesa had fallen to the hands of the Rebels Breaking what resolve he had left.
