Regnum Drakaes

The Drakesland Autarchy, otherwise known as the Drakeslands is a nation located in New Rathnir, founded by fleeing refugees, political dissidents, and settlers from Rathnir a century before the New World was first officially discovered.

Lore
It is the great Period of Unrest. For centuries the great powers of Rathnir's old world have fought each other for sovereignty over their already tired and devastated lands, their fleets make the oceans red with the blood of countless hundreds and their armies march in the tracks of countless wars. However, all this time there was a place that managed to remain at peace, hidden and isolated from the rest of the world. While the other powers were burning in futile conflicts only to be blown away by the sands of time like so many others, the light of the Autarch shone on Drakesland.

When originally discovered by the humble and charismatic fisherman Thomas Drake over two centuries ago, Drakesland was nothing more than a story being played on the streets of the so-called "Empire" of the White Raven. The first encounter of the man who would later bear his name in the new land took place, as all great encounters must, by accident. The boat Drake worked on was thrown off course by an unimaginable storm of proportions never seen before on Rathnir. Having miraculously survived the hurricane, the fisherman found himself in a mysterious and beautiful land half a world away from his destination.

By the grace of no one but himself, Thomas Drake returned to the empire with stories from this distant land, but as they were only tales told by only a mere fisherman, the discovery went unnoticed by most, being treated only as the jokes and foolishness of a madman. However, a select group of adventurers, seeing the situation in that region of the world deteriorating and revolted by the injustices of their homeland, embraced Drake's ideas. With just two years of the accidental adventure of this humble fisherman, hundreds of settlers from all over the world braved the sea in search of the legendary land. Refugees, adventurers, sages and fools made up the great expedition, all carrying the same dream of the now-deceased Thomas Drake. After countless challenges, the expedition would find a point inside a mighty river where they would finally realize their ambitions. And so, the great High City of Aurica was forged from the pages of a humble fisherman's diary.

Today, Drakesland is absolutely commanded by the Autarch and his most trusted advisors who together form the Senate. Under the authority of the Senate are dozens of minor officers who command all parts of the state, be it city command, sovereignty over the economy or army domination, there is always an officer for the job, and no matter what the position, from the lower rank and file soldier to the most influential of mayors, they all serve the will of the Senate.
