Veskalíde

The Grand Triumvirate of Veskalíde is a nation in the southern reaches of Eldham, in the continents of Arsine and Serrona. It was created when the nations of Exousía, New Domatia, and Neo-Bai all decided to merge because of their cultural roots going back to the Bai Federation. It was formed formally in. The name Veskalíde means "Land of the Exiles", in a mix of the Eschani and Exousían languages.

Pre-history
Since, Exousía had been formed as a vassal of one of the remains from the Bai Federation, New Domatia. Culturally and historically close, they had always been sister nations with each other, even after New Domatia had joined the Vulperium.

A few months later came the Neo-Bai, remnants of the citizens from the former Bai Federation. All three of them being able to trace their roots to the Bai Federation and being geographically close ensured that each nation had great relations with each other. Soon afterwards, Neo-Bai had merged with New Domatia to form Rang'Urdii, a new duchy of the Vulperium. Even while in the Vulperium, Exousía and Rang'Urdii always had great ties with each other.

Rang'Urdiian-Exousían merger
Close to the end of December and nearing the second century of the Travelers Era, the Vulperium was rocked with strife as there had been rumors of a coup. The Grand Valar of the Vulperium had resigned and there was chaos. This change alarmed the baron of Rang'Urdii, Puddles, and he decided to push for independence from Vulperium. Along the same time, many citizens and government officials in Exousía and Rang'Urdii had both talked about a merge between the two and how it would be beneficial. Eventually, the leader of Exousía, Vyani, had contacted Puddles to discuss this merge. Both Puddles and Vyani had agreed that a merge between the two would be extremely good for both.

The two arranged a meeting between both governments to decide on the details and terms of this new merge. They had decided to divide this new nation into their former territories as provinces, Exousía, Neo-Bai, and New Domatia. Each province would have a triarch and would rotate between each one as the Head Triarch every month, or every seven years in TE. They merged both councils together to create a Grand Council and chose the name Veskalíde.

Triarchs
There are three triarchs from each core state of the nation. Exousía, Neo-Bai, and New Domatia, These triarchs rotate every month for the Head Triarch. How the Triarchs are chosen are up to the provincial states. The Triarchs have the power to vote one another Triarch out and ask that state for a successor. These Triarchs are responsible for balancing power throughout the government and keeping the nation stable.

Grand Council
The Grand Council is made up of the councils of each state. 6 per region with a max of 18. The Grand Council makes major decisions for the nation and is important for generating ideas to keep the nation stable and growing. As there are a large number of people on the Grand Council, the triarchs must do their best to keep the Grand Council in check.

Senate
The Senate is another body of the Veskalii Government, with members of the Senate being democratically elected. The Senate is responsible for making decisions to aid the nation in ways to help it grow. Laws, ideas, bills, are all submitted to the Senate for the senators to discuss and vote on. Each Senator has a one-month term before the next senate elections.

States
The current states are made up of the territories of each of the founder states, Exousía, Domatia, and Neo-Bai. They still hold their own land from pre-merge. On the map, Red signifies Exousía, Green signifies Neo-Bai, and Purple signifies Domatia.

Exousía
Exousía currently holds 5 islands, as well as their desert mainland. On their continental territory, Exousía has the city of New Sybada in the desert, dry and filled with sand, although the local citizens have been able to use it to create large buildings and structures. They hold 1 small island east of the main land, however it is a small part of New Sybada. 3 Exousían islands are in the Aquinterrain Sea, containing the small island village of Vesperia's Bounty, and two large islands making up the city of Marportus. The last island is far up north, being the city of Wizelandia. Exousía holds a small piece of land in Katsura, to honour their Aristii & Yurkian heritage. There lies the town of Ameria, the name of the Aristios province that used to reside there.

Domatia
The state of Domatia is currently south of Exousía and is by the world border. The Domatian area is filled with grassy plains and small hills, with a large cliff and river in the east and a mesa valley in the south. Within Domatia contains 4 cities, Baicalite, Taernsby, Savan Dur, and Florinth. Baicalite is the capital of the Domatian state and rests on the top of the eastern cliffs. It has a great port with many ships coming and going at their docks. The town of Taernsby is a small village in the terracotta valley of the south, with a small and closed off community resting there. Taernsby is a comfy and small village to settle down in with some very friendly inhabitants. Savan Dur contains many of the Domatian artifacts and is a cultural capital within the area, having a magical atmosphere and calm ambience. Lastly, Florinth is an ancient ruined city in the west that has been abandoned, although there are movements on restoring it. Meant to be a flourishing city, Florinth was a populous city with many people, however it started declining with the Bai Exodus.

Neo-Bai
Bai is the only state in Veskalíde that rests in Arsine. It contains 3 cities and has very mountainous and forest terrain, covered with snow. The capital of the Bai state is Condull, a long & old city since the time of the Bai Federation. Many of the infrastructure within Condull and the whole of Neo-Bai are inside the mountains that are in that area. The town of Ancapistan is almost completely inside the mountain, containing a very large market in there and being an economic city in Veskalíde. Addressoria is a city at the very south of Neo-Bai, with a small town that shows comfort in the harsh winters and mountains of Bai.

Baivos
The island(s) of Baivos is a jointly owned territory between the Grand Triumvirate of Veskalíde and the Commonwealth of Falholt. Originally owned by the Bai Federation, after it's dissolution, New Domatia owned the island and had sold it off to Falholt in exchange for some money and aid against the Clockist rebellion. Long after it had been sold, the Neo-Bai came up from Condull and they offered to help populate and transform the island in exchange for joint ownership, The Commonwealth of Falholt agreed, and it is recognized as a special territory within Veskalíde.

National Territory
On the map, the Blue territory signifies National Territory that is held by the Triumvirate. The capital of Veskalíde, Veskaron, is national territory as the government didn't want to be biased in their decision for the national capital. The city of Veskaron is inside an ocean momuent, and holds (soon to be) many government buildings within it.
