Akratia

Akratia is a sprawling city on Western Sparwood, while also being the capital of the former United Akratian Empire. Established on 4 October 2020 by Akratian migrants in search of their promised land. Their original homeland was on the continent of Sørligste, in the ancient city of Eaksor.

The city is full of history and also the homeland of the Akratian people. One can find the oldest and most important building of the Akratian culture, The Black Citadel. Unlike many, the city did survive the test of time, and is now a relic of the former Akratian Empire glory.

Location
Akratia is located in the Southern part of the Eork Plains, or in wider term, south of Western Sparwood. The city stands on the banks of the Ekara's Valley river, both having the same name. Being close to Ozhaliz/Kibbutz, NorthWest, and to Eastor/AppleHarbor, Eastwards.

The Foundation
The foundation of Ekara is very old, a long time ago, a weak and desperate people, arrived, in a terrible storm, on the mountainous western banks of the valley. This people were one of the only groups of survivors of a once great race castaway on a hostile and unknown world, the Magis. The legend says that these Magis, would have followed the incarnation of the all powerful being who had saved them from the destruction of their world, but this is another story ...

When they settled in the valley of Ekara (the new home), sometime after arriving their guide, the incarnation of their god died.

The Akratian Oligarchy
At this moment the most important families of the community come together and decide on the way forward for the future of their people. Later these families will scattered across the plains, some remaining at Akratia, others creating powerful Kingdoms, thus these families form what was called the Akratian Oligarchy.

The city is filled with the marks of the powers of these families and factions.

The United Empire
When Emperor Neoz rose to power, he renovated the old castle of Arkosa (the seat of power of the old oligarchy) in his own fortified palace The Black Citadel.

RIP AKRATIA
A creation by Neoz kept going for years by groups who wanted to retain their former glory. Rest in peace.
