Kryvonea

Dea Kaeseriás vé Kryvonea (Traveler's Tongue: The Kaeseriàs of Krivoniya) is an empire located on the continent of Leifmyrr, it has no capital but a traveling court. The nation has borders with the Imperium, Durnhol Sarkaz, Samora, Lunaris, Sylvania, and Alodia. The national religion that serves as the inspiration for both the citizens and the government is The Holy Aetherian Orthodoxy. The Empire believes in democratic monarchy. Heir to Will and Ellesmere, the Empire unifies these two ancient nations into one. The Kaeseros is the head of state, while the Kansylios (Chancellor) heads the Rygerna (Government), most actions of the Rygerna must first pass through the Rylenia (Parliament) before any implementation. The kaeseriàs is a vassal of the Imperial Realm of Arktania with whom it shares the same ruling dynasty.

I.        A new state, a new regime, the monarchic experience in Kryvonea
It is important to specify that it is indeed by the will of His Majesty Nykolaus vé Aeseris, instigator of the fall of the Republic of Volonté, that the Tsardom of Kryvonea was proclaimed, an absolute monarchy.

A coup d'état was instigated by Johanes Kuzen (Koosh), but was eventually aborted, as he died. But behind this coup, Kryvonea showed signs of demographic and economic weakness.

Theodorico vé Aeserís (Templars), son of our blessed tsar, was placed as mayor of the city of Alvero. Finally, Theodorico (Templars) was promoted to the position of Minister of Culture. This allowed him to set up a real "Kryvonian Renaissance" by implementing a series of cultural reforms. Thus, the country no longer had a capital, the imperial court became ambulant. Moreover, various festivals were instituted.

II.      Time of reforms, time of troubles
Memories of the attempted coup by Johanes Kuzen (Koosh) resurfaced when three and a half years later, Crusader also tried to seize power by force. Crusader was a citizen of Oceanum and sought to install a puppet ruler in the person of Marco Sauhen (Sohowe) to maneuver behind the scenes. However, Theodorico vé Aeserís (Templars) and Livina Zaiser (Firefly) infiltrated the plot and people from the Heartlands and Tovik gathered in Kenka to arrest Sohowe.

His Majesty fell ill sometime later, and the tsarina consort, Robinia vé Aeserís, succeeded him and proclaimed the Kaiserreich of Kryvonea. During her reign, various reforms were implemented. Indeed, the creation of the Templar's hill estate and the Heartlands irrigation scheme, as well as the creation of a new religion, the Holy Aetherian Orthodoxy, which became a state religion. Finally, she proclaimed the Kaeseriás of Kryvonea, which became a parliamentary monarchy, and for the first time since the fall of Volonté, a democracy.

Thus, an election campaign began to elect the first parliament. The Konstyllienís vé Kryvonea parteás won the elections. Thus, the position of chancellor was given to Livina Zaiser (Firefly) when Arne Rosenfeld (Ted) became statelios and rylenios. After, several months of deliberations, the Triple coalition containing the three main political parties of Kryvonea was instituted.

Theodorico vé Aeserís, still holding his status of Minister of Culture, put in place several reforms and projects, including the adoption of Caranthean as the national language, under the name of Kryvoneís, but also the recognition of the four regional languages, and finally an excavation of the ruins of Caranthea.

If the beginnings of this new government were rather times of peace, the internal troubles resurfaced. An attempt to secede from the city of Ellesmere was organized, to join the country of Sylvania. However, this secession was a failure that must have been planned. Indeed, the rebels thought they had the support of Uraka and Oceanum, but this was not the case. In addition, people came to illegally found the city of Donza, in Augolia. The city was built on a strategic point, and after deliberation between the occupants and Kryvonea, it was decided that the new city would be fully integrated into the Empire.

Kryvonea also underwent new political changes, from within and without. In fact, a new constitution was written by Arne Rosenfeld (Ted). But perhaps the biggest upheaval was the fall of Uraka, causing Kryvonea to no longer be under his suzerainty. It is also worth noting that, after a little more than three years in office, Livina Zaiser (Firefly) decided to resign as Chancellor. But the latter, before leaving his position for good, advised the parliament to elect Halberto Zaiser (Rough) as the new Chancellor. Halberto Zaiser (Rough), who was independent of all parties, was elected to the misunderstanding of the parliament, which was not aware of his appointment. The people, appreciating the mayor of Wesnovitz, also accepted this almost appointment by Livina Zaiser (Firefly) of Halberto Zaiser (Rough).

III.     New difficulties: wars and weakening of the imperial power
Kryvonea could not imagine this part of its history. Indeed, the Turban clan, led by Hurun Bonecrusher (Templars) and the nameless Killer (Tobii) attacked Kenka. Three attempted assaults on farms, and two on the northern ramparts were launched by the barbarians. But the clan was finally decimated by the Guardian Knight of Aeseris, even though Hurun Bonecrusher (Templars) had a very unfortunate experience. The latter froze on the battlefield at first, but Arne Rosenfeld (Ted) joined him to strike a blow that would, in a very strange way, be fatal for the barbarian leader. Indeed, out of his frozen state and going mad, he rushed from the heights of a cliff, knowing only death.

In these troubled times, Halberto Zaiser (Rough) decided to appoint as vice-chancellor Theodorico vé Aeserís (Templars). But at the same time, after several years of illness, His Majesty Nykolaus vé Aeserís succumbed, and his wife and beloved Empress, Robinia vé Aeserís, died of grief. Arthur vé Aeserís (Tobii), their son, thus acceded to the most prestigious of functions, that of monarch. He was crowned in the church of the Holy Aetherian in Ellesmere. But a few months after his coronation, the young monarch, and the chancellor Halberto Zaiser (Rough) fell ill, so Renvick vé Aeserís (Renvick) was appointed as chancellor and Theodorico vé Aeserís (Templars) as head of government.

IV.     New alliances and rivalries
The first important contact with a foreign country since the fall of Uraka was certainly the signing of a voluntary treaty of vassalization with Arktania. The second was an alliance between Kaeserías and Samora.

At the same time, the city of Caograd emerged from the earth by the hand of clockist migrants who came to settle in Kryvonea.

I. Ethnicities:
Kryvonea is a land of multiple cultures, actually four to be precise. Each one has its own traditions, language, and architecture. But also unique gastronomy and literature. Only the monarchy, the love of the nation and the vodka unite the so diverse Kaeseriàs.
 * The Heartlanders who dominate the center of Kaeseriàs have been hardened by the barren lands, fighting against nature itself. Every Heartlander is born with the dream of transforming the desert into a lush garden. Highly religious, they embrace the ideals of chivalry as well as unparalleled hospitality. They also like to make decisions in groups, easily forming councils or assemblies.


 * The Augolians, living in the eastern regions, are a culture of resistance, hard work and a strong desire for self-reliance. The heavily fortified cities of this culture are also designed to contain the greatest natural beauty.


 * The Tovikians are a people with a strong belief in science, knowledge and innovation. These lords of the horse, are great warriors, but one should not think that they are nomadic barbarians, on the contrary. Their capital Kenka is a masterpiece of architecture, and its fortifications make most cities pale. Life in the desert has not made them cold, on the contrary they have a great hospitality.


 * The Norterreños were hardened by the cold lands of the north, which contrasts greatly with the arid lands of the Heartlands. These famously hospitable merchants are also known for their cities hidden by the dense forests of the eternal north. This culture also produces very good diplomats.
