Merchant's Guild of Osria

The Merchant's Guild of Osria, or Osria for short, was an association of towns in Eldham within Phoros for the intent of strengthening the economical power of the area. The Guild had four member towns: Ancontinople, Phantalia, Tatsuyama and Gabenberg (Grisa's town name at this period of time). The towns of Ancontinople and Phantalia had derived from a group of refugees from the nations of The Minrithian Republic and The Phantom Empire, respectfully. Due to civil strife and fears of governmental retaliation, the two groups had settled nearby each other in Northern Stoneguard, and established a commercial pact with both themselves and the nearby town of Gabenberg across the border into Barbossa, eventually forming a merchant’s guild. Tatsuyama was once a vassal of Ancontinople but had quickly gained its own township as the population expanded. The four towns combined with the neighboring town of Urak to create the nation of Uraki Imperium and the Merchant's Guild of Osria had disbanded.

Ancontinople
Ancontinople is a town owned by Queegharious and is, currently, the largest of the four towns. Queegharious has earned years of architectural and managerial experience regarding building towns and cities. According to the town's local religion, its people are descended from refugees from the fallen Minrithian Republic, from the not-well-known fallen continent of Atheiropa. The refugees, being mostly of noble familiarity, fled the republic after a new empirical government has been established. The refugees of Ancontinople settled onto land disputed by Stoneguard and Barbossa at the time, but had been granted to Stoneguard before Uraka's purchase of the town.

Gabenberg
Gabenberg is the oldest and, at the time, largest of the three towns. Frederickthebate, the town leader, had developed his town with his accustomed group of educated labourers within Barbossa. Slight tensions have arisen between Barbossa and Stoneguard as Frederick had accidentally built its town one hundred meters from the border between Stoneguard and Barbossa, thinking he was still in Stoneguard. The tension had quickly diminished as Gabenberg, after realizing their mistakes, welcomed themselves within Barbossan culture. The town is built upon a large island, connected to Rodinnbrok via the bridge owned by the town of Urak.

Phantalia
Phantalia is a town owned by SirLagsALot31_, otherwise known as Stumpy. Stumpy has been developing and managing his own towns for the longest time out of the three participating leaders. Phantalia has a very similar history of Ancontinople, with the founding citizens being refugees from another nation of Atheiropa: The Phantom Empire. The empire had collapsed soon before Atheiropa had been lost to the known world, and the refugees had arrived in Stoneguard alongside Minrithian refugees to develop their own separate towns in Stoneguard, with the culture and architecture of the nations they've left behind. They have since settled on the roofed forest region of Stoneguard, west of Ancontinople.

Tatsuyama
Tatsuyama is a town owned by xKenshin_, otherwise known as Daimyo Kenshin. It used to be a vassal within Ancontinople, but later grew into its own sovereignty with Queegharious' praise to the town. Tatsuyama shares a name to the previous town of Tatsuyama, once being a vassal within The Minrithian Empire back in 2017.

Nurnen (Present-day Aliabasso)
Nurnen was a settlement owned by Fishy, son of Tylics. It is only one chunk large, with no buildings to its name. Before its original plan of becoming a Roman Castra, Nurnen was removed and the town of Aliabasso had been built upon it since within Ancontinople's claims, now owned by JustZera.

Angasal
Angasal is a small town owned by icebear_____ within Ancontinople's claims. Although they are within claims of another town, it has retained its sovereignty as its own town.

Oda (Present-day Atroch)
Oda, otherwise known as Castle Kaneda, is a castle in between Ancontinople and Tatsuyama. It had been owned by Emo Gohan before he was exiled due to his attempted coup, and is now in the hands of TheMelch. Tatsuyama had laid claims on the castle, saying it had been a vassal of Tatsuyama before TheMelch had retained ownership, but had backed down since. TheMelch now owns the claim of Oda, now called Atroch.

Aftermath
The Merchant's Guild of Osria had been disbanded after the four associated towns have united with Urak to create the Republic of Uraka, although the history of the Merchant's Guild is lived on through the three survivors, Stumpy, Kenshin, and Queegharious, after Frederick mysteriously vanished and his town of Grisa had been given to another player.
