Hafinia

Hafinia or formally known as The Crowned Union of Hafinia is an autonomous duchy within the Tengalii Ejzen Empire. It is made up of three counties, the Khedivate of Zefrania which is the largest and most populated

county, Interland and Zelandia.

Establishment
After the Great Evacuation, back in December 2022, the Zefranians were on the run, and the potential of the death of the Zefranian people was very real. They therefore, went north, first to Caeli, then down south to Montroig, afterwards they went to Ashura. Until they finally purchased land from the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk.

This led to the establishment of the Khedivate of Zefranian-Hafinia, and it saw a quick rise to prominence, establishing diplomatic ties with nations such as Valoore and its old allies in Lennox and Caeli. It managed to recruit a large sum of people within a short amount of time, and was prospering. This was until the Atvertican secession from the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk.

Atvertican Secession
This saw the nation on the brink of war, Zefrania was a vassal state, and saw themselves quickly aligning with their overlords in T.E.K. Which was when Atvertico decided to claim Zefrania for themselves. War was narrowly avoided after a stressful week of negoations and preparations. Eventually the disputed duchy of Interland which had gone inactive would be undisputetly controlled by the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk. This was when the Khedive of Zefrania was approached by the Kajzer of Tengalii Gustav, about the purchase of the title of Duke of Interland.

This however came at a cost, the Zefranian nation-state would have to integrate into Interland as a duchy, however, they would be granted exclusive rights and autonomy compared to other duchies in the empire. Satüs Hejetür, the Khedive of Zefrania was quick to jump on the idea. And swiftly drafted a treaty which was fowarded to the Emperor. They came to an agreement on what the rights and restrictions of the duchy should be. And what role it would pay in internal affairs.

Eventually, on the 12th of June 2023, the duchy was established as an integral part of the Tengalii Ejzen Kajzerryk. It would quickly be renamed to the Crowned Union of Hafinia, as to bring better representation to the individual counties and cultures.

Cultural Diversity
The Crowned Union of Hafinia is quite diverse cultural wise. It has elements of the ancient Kuzat-Zefranian culture originating from Ummarnu and it has the old Interland culture which has many elements from the Audalad culture.

However, cultural, racial and religious rights have been preserved for everyone in the constitution, and as counties are allowed to run relatively on their own accords with very little interference from the main county of Zefrania, this allows for more religious, racial and cultural flexibility within the different duchies.

Religion
The religion of the Crowned Union of Hafinia is officially the state religion of Tengalii. However, private worship of other religions is allowed, this has led to the old religious beliefs of the Zefranian people coming back, this means religions such as Achon-Hekun and Lux is quite prominent within the population.
