Lutian

Lutian, officially the Kingdom of Lutian, is a kingdom in The United Crowns of Syltör, located in Nieden and Plagos.

Early history
In, then named Jostepher Stephan bought the island of Solnostan located in the Silver Sea, which was later renamed to HeroldsBurg. Because of the looming threat of other bigger nations in the area HeroldsBurg decided to look for allies. So in, the Treaty of the vassalisation of HeroldsBurg into the Kingdom of Arcan was signed, which marked the beginning of Arcan-Lutian relations.

Nationhood and territorial disputes
After being vassalized by Arcan, the town of HeroldsBurg proclaimed the nation of Lutian with Jostepher von HeroldsBurg as its leader. The land that they had obtained was falsely sold to them and its actual owner the Theivocracy of Charm was disputing Lutian´s claim. After nearly going to war both sides settled and arranged an agreement to solve the issue.

In, the MIC went into an agreement with Lutian. Not many details about this integration have been released and it is still an ongoing project for both sides.

As Lutian was increasingly getting stronger, Shania, one of Lutian´s neighbours, was increasingly getting afraid of the duchy. So they joined the nation of Ultima and convinced them to go to war with Lutian. After realizing what was going on Emperor of the Northern Crowns managed to deescalate the situation and preventing a military conflict.

Devassalisation
In, the King of Arcan, Twisty Constantine decided to abdicate his throne. He adopted and named the then Duke of Lutian, Jostepher von HeroldsBurg as his heir and grandson. After succeeding, King Jostepher von Constatine-HeroldsBurg established the Kingdom of Lutian and moved the capital from Arcan to HeroldsBurg. Arcan was soon integrated into the kingdom as a province while its high council was official disbanded. Soon, a new high council was soon established in Heroldsburg to aid the King in running his realm while a regional council consisting of former members of Arcan's high council was established to rule Arcan.

This marked the beginning of a new era to Lutian as an independent state.

Confrontation with Kartek Fjellheim
In, the Kingdom of Lutian welcomed a new addition to their nation, the island town of Southland, a newly established town by the player Janel after buying the islands from the Empire of Kartek Fjellheim for 100k. This marked the first expansion of territory for the Kingdom since its establishment.

However this joyous occasion was short lived as a very angry letter from the Emperor of Kartek Fjellhein, General Ich made its way to King Jostepher's hands. In the letter, the emperor threatened to declare war on Lutian due to the illegal claim of Southland on Kartek Fjellheim's territory. It was later discovered that Janel didn't actually buy the land from Kartek Fjellhein and had just claimed the islands illegally. To avoid war, Lutian had to delete the claim of Southland and had to repay Kartek Fjellhein 100k. Lutian wasn't willing to pay for the mistakes of one of its citizen so tried to negotiate with Kartek Fjellhein. However, General Ich wanted none of it so he moved for immediete declaration of war.

Fortunately, the war was delayed due to the timely holidays truce declared by the international comitee. Thus, time was given for the King of Lutian to negotiate a peace treaty to avoid war. Finally, a deal was agreed upon, which Lutian agreed to throw out the town of Southland from the kingdom and Janel would take full responsibility for his actions and would accept any reperations due to his town.
