Centaris

Starter Information
Known by many names, "The Huitcan State of Centaris", "The Republic of Centaris", "Regnum Wrecker", Centaris is the largest state in the Huitca Federation in terms of size and population. The northern state/city encapsulates almost a third of the nation (more if you include colonies in the A.I. Islands), as well as housing more than half of the nation's population!

The state consists of six active districts, that are owned by their respective Meirases (mayors):


 * Aequallis, oldest district and lower residential zone
 * Termina (Katolis/Aeremere), state capital and merchant's zone
 * New Fernheim, second oldest district, agricultural zone
 * Ataraxia, higher residential district
 * Vont, underground district
 * Farafin, scientific district

Founding
Centaris first started as the small city of Port Royal (later Aequallis) founded by Sycth Centari (IGN: sycth_3839). Although due to his death, he was never involved in Aequallis' expansion that led to the formation of Centaris.

That, and the founding of Centaris as a whole is credited to Necro Mercellus Centari (IGN: Necro_Mercellus), Sycth's younger brother, Lily Centari's (IGN: LilyPrism) older brother, as well as Centaris' first Hoxi and Chancellor. Together with his adopted sons, Ambrose Selesti-Centari (IGN: PeanutBoota152) and Mett Centari (IGN:_M3tt_), they created The Immortal House of Centari, the most powerful noble family in the nation, second only to the former royal family of the Atl'Tizocs. The Centari family is credited with the conception and planning of Centaris, along with the Emendari Household, their distant relatives.

The Ocotlan-Inari Union
After the Aequallis' Golden Age and a series of conflicts and events that led to the Siege and Fall of Aequallis, Lily Centari, Hoxi of the former state of Ocotlan and Meiras of Aequallis decided it was time to retire from both of her positions and live a peaceful life with her adoptive family in the Abyssal Isles in Escharia. Before leaving, Necro Mercellus Centari, then the Hoxi of Inari, was given the title in her absence. Because of this event, Necro decided to merge the two states into Centaris (a city in its original conception).

Age of Expansion
With this, and several negotiations with the residing cities and the Huitcan Crown, Necro commissioned his most promising apprentices and friends to secure territory within the state, these people eventually became the Meirases of their respective territories, known as Districts.


 * Endmxn, Meiras of Termina
 * Venomous_man101, Meiras of Ataraxia
 * NOTAFunnyBee, Meiras of Aequallis
 * NUCLEAREIGNN, Meiras of Ignitia
 * PeanutBoota152, Meiras of New Fernheim

During this time of expansion, many of the Meirases planned out the function and layouts of their city and other outside cities joined to experience such expansion, this included:


 * FStone, Meiras of Vont
 * RedFireRex, Meiras of Farafin

Although as of December 17, 2021, the projects still remain incomplete.

Political Structure
The state of Centaris follows the laws of the Federation, but in a state level, openly adheres to a mix of a meritocratic and democratic form of government, wherein the lower ranks are chosen by the Crown and people, while higher positions are nominated, appointed, and occasionally trained by the Chancellor and higher ranking members of the local government.

Culture
Compared to most cities and nations, Centaris is the most open about other cultures, religions, lifestyles, and etc. This is greatly emphasized by the different forms of architecture around the state.
