History

Valeland

The historical land's of Valeland started when a group of people called "Umide's" started to live here at year -1000 years or so and they made some historical settlemets like "Kerne" and "Ugsta." Some raiders called themselves the "Vales" and raided the Umide's settlements at year 21. Soon after the Vale's decided to migrate there due to the nice land's of the place. Soon they made a new settlement called *SHOCKER* "Vale City" and the city was located in the center of the place.

The king, Cyrus (52) brought alot of new things to Valeland like Festival's, Tradition's, a new Language and a new Alphabet.
King Josephe the I (332) has built many fortification's around the kingdom and established the House of Magdenburg.
While Queen-Consort Josephine has inspired Beauty and Fashion across the Nation.
A large fire broke out in Vale City under King Henri the I which was dealt easily (522), he also established the fire department and the police.
At 851, the same time king John got assassinated a large and dangerous plague has been undergoing in the entire nation and 25% of people died in this strange disease called "Tuberculosis" which started in the small costal town of Fenel. So basically COVID 0.0
At year 1008 Emma became the first Queen-Regnant of Valeland and at year 1344 a war broke out between Valeland and Latatea which was called "the 3 year war" which ended with both sides agreeing to not wage war between eachother.
at 1424 the Magdenburg House and the Appalia House(house which ruled Latatea) decided to make the heir's marry eachother (Janessa and Henri).

Year 1445 was the time when Janessa inherited the throne and shortly after Henri sucseeded the Latatean throne.
They both had one son named "Alexander" which inherited the throne when both of his parents abdicated.
Alexander, king of both Valeland and Latatea decided to unite both kingdom's into Lethinia.

This is where the story of Valeland ends and where Lethinia's starts

Latatea

The historical land's of Latatea started when a group of people called "Umide's" started to live here at year -1000 years or so and they made some historical settlemets like Villa and Režine. Some raiders which called themselves the "Vale's" captured the Umide's settlement at Kerne and Ugsta, but the eastern Umide's werent harmed. Year -88 was the time where the golden age of Latatea began with many gold and succesful trades at the time, until 52 a deadly disease called Tuberculosis killed almost half of the population.

King Arten was an expert general and raided the neighboring cities for gold and wealth (125)
King Svatopluk was very old but has made philosophy and astronomy very important (378)
King Čeprka brought many things into the nation like Festival's, Tradition's and a new Religon (856)
Queen Anna Marie was the first queen of Latatea and heavily focused on education for all social classes (1241)
King John I was the first king to be die in war during the 3 year war between Valeland (1344)
QueenSarah mainly focused on modernizing the kingdom, monarchy and the people (1347)
King John II was the one who accepted the marrige between Janessa and Henri(the son of King John II) (1424)

Year 1445 was the time when Henri inherited the throne with Janessa.
They both had one son named "Alexander" which inherited the throne when both of his parents abdicated.
Alexander, king of both Valeland and Latatea decided to unite both kingdom's into Lethinia.

This is where the story of Latatea ends and where Lethinia's starts

Marburg

Marburg started as a small fishing port under the Alfadini rule (-7). Marburg soon discovered a weird thing called a "purple snail" and there were many of them, if they crushed the snails then they get food and smth unique. PURPLE DYE!!!! so they soon became and expanding city due to the purple dye bcs it is very very rare to find one. The only way to get purple dye are to get it from the "Galfaire Flower" which were protected and rare.

Marburg soon got independence in the year 26 and made their own state called "THE MARGLADINI." The Margladini was really succesful as they made the largest port at the time in Lacia and were bloated with money and coins and made many colonies at the Gulf of Marburg.

But at the 11th century the Vales came and raided Marburg repeatedly leading to the downfall of Marburg, from 24k people to 6k. As the city was weak, the Bardigani Leage (a leage with small nation which were protecting themselves from Valeland) attacked Marburg and made them to join their league as a vassal.

The Margladini soon revolted in the 12th century and gained independence but that means they left the league which made them a free meal for Valeland and lost at the war against Valeland. After they were annexed by Valeland, Marburg was always a prominent city in the country but were usually mistreated due to them being annexed and captured unlike being build in Vale soil.

Year 1445 was the time when Janessa inherited the throne and shortly after Henri sucseeded the Latatean throne.
They both had one son named "Alexander" which inherited the throne when both of his parents abdicated.
Alexander, king of both Valeland and Latatea decided to unite both kingdom's into Lethinia.

This is where the story of Marburg ends and where Lethinia's starts

Middle Ages

The Middle Ages was a pretty mysterious age for Lethinia (prob bcs people burned the pages where the history was) but whatever.

At 1522 Queen Mary Maud had 12 miscarriges and her oldest child surviving until age 4, Mary Maud nominated noble Cedric Veré to take her throne when she died and when she died at year 1543 Cedric Veré succseded Mary Maud and became the first Veré monarch in Valeland, and Latatea aswell...

The Renaissance began in Lethinia for a fact, in the city of Compeé. Various theories have been proposed to account for its origins and characteristics, focusing on a variety of factors, including Lethinia's social and civic peculiarities at the time: its political structure, the patronage of its dominant family, the Veré, and the migration of Oldenvilli scholars and their texts to Lethinia. Other major centers were Vale City, Battersea, Oldenville, Port Villa and Marburg. From Lethinia, the Renaissance spread throughout the continent and also to the Lacian terretories territories ruled by the European colonial powers of the time or where missionaries were active.

Wilson Republic

After the unification of Valeland and Latatea, a large prolem aroused. Where whould the capital be nestled? Valelanders demanded the capital to be Vale City while the Latateans refused the undeveloped snob city of the Vales and requested for Port Villa to be the capital, Marburg proposed the Capital to be Marburg or Oldenville as they are not on the Kingdoms soils/near the Kingdoms.
So for 104 whole years of fighting and arguing the Vales eventually came on top but Port Villa whould and is a huge contender against Vale City.

Anyways thats done... now what? said King Weizel the Ż\_(ツ)_/Żof Veré (wow new dynasty time)

Revolts...

Oh...

If you dont know. The Sadeline Revolt was a large Revolt in Sadeline Square (Vale City) and they protested bcs they had a sh😳tty king. King Weizel didint like that and said to his guards to kill them which they did. This tragic event was called the Sadeline Massacre which damaged a huge blow to the kings reputation.

Some person named Wilson was sad bcs his parents died at the Sadeline Massacre so he decided to expose the King by (*illegal things*) which made the King very unpopular bcs the (*illegal things*) was talked EVERYWHERE and EVERYWHERE i mean EVERYWHERE so there was some killing, some overthrowing and then Weizel died of malnurishment.

When the King dies the Heir usually becomes the King but this time not since the country didint want a monarchy so Wilson had an oppurtunity to become the Head of State, his opponents were many but his largest opponent was Lord Rex but at the end Wilson won the election.

This is the first time Lethinia became a Democracy so it is something new for the Lethinians.

The Official name for the Republic was "The Lethinian Republic" but today we call the "The Wilson Republic"

The Republic survived for only 12 years due to the civilian disatisfaction as the civilians thought that the republic whould give more then rotten bread with Berries (The Brearry Day) (and yes it is an event where Lethinians celebrate by giving strangers Bread and Berries)

Was the Wilson Republic Succesful? no
Was Wilson Succesful? yes at some extenct until he tragically fell at a river when protesters where trying to capture him (also lead to his death)
Did the Lethinians learn their Lesson? no (1875 Revolution.. *cough*)

What did we learn abt this "Wilson Republic"? that it was a mess and a dissapointment.

The Foundation of the 1st Lethinian Empire

After the Wilson Republic ended, the many states have protested to not unite to make Lethinia again and propsed to do some kind of "federation" but Louis rejected this idea and decided to rule it alone. Soon it united again under the rule of Louis the I. Louis went to Plajevo to crown himself as Emperor of Lethinia since he belived he was all powerful and deserved the title for some reason ._. But the thing is, is that he left from Lethinia to crown him the all holy Emperor of Lethinia so Lethinian states were all alone under the watchful eye of the "Regency" which did a terrible job at holding the states as they saw oppertunity to get independence. But many loyal states have disagreed (usually the states which were bribed by the Monarchy). Louis came back as "the Emperor of Lethinia" and a civil war has broke called "The Lethinian Civil War" which was from 1659 to 1666

At 1666 both sides were really tired and decided to make an agreement, the states wont get independence but will get full autonomy and a "Federation" has been made called "The (1st) Lethinian Empire."

Many powerful states (like Latatea, Vale, Alaie, Battersea, Oldenville, Gale and Levorné) were granted "Elector" rank, as they can choose the Prime Minister's and Emperor's(if the ruling house went extinct). and... OMG am i hearing another large war that will change Lethinia?

The War of the Vale Succesion

So the main family of the Magdenburg House all died due to some kind of disease so there was no one to rule, but there was? Marie Anna was the "sister" of the king of Valeland but was she? no one really knows(at the time) if she was apart of the House(spoiler alert, she ws apart of the house) and most of the states in Lethinia disagreed that she was apart of the house since everyone wanted to put their own official as the ruler of Valeland, which led to this war.

The main participants of the war were: Latatea, Battersea, Alaie, Oldenville, Valeland and many teeny meeny states.

The war started with Marie Anna sending an army to conquer the now emperor Louis the II to learn him a lesson to not attack Valeland(1676). At the battle of Lagana Bridge, Valeland has succesfuly pushed Battersean forces out of the bridge and capture the nearby city of Lagana. (fun fact: Battersea is so small that it only owns 2 cities) Latatea and Latatea teamed up to defeat Valeland and split the land respectfully but with disagreement and bad communications made them enemies and attacked eachother with Alaie supporting Oldenville. Battersea soon collapsed and their monarchy moved to their PU, Voldona at the north. Marburg soon joined the war. hoping to gain new ports and colonies in the coasts of the countries, harrased both Latatea and Valeland by the order of the Emperor, Louis the II. The war ended up being a stalemate and there were no border changes between Valeland and Latatea/Alaie, Latatea had to give up the Blagaine province to Oldenville, Seré got independence by the demands of Alaie and Marburg gained some ports. Battersea lost Voldona but gained the Coastal province of Vildana from Valeland and Anna Marie. At the end everyone was happy except for the Latateans. (1676 - 1698)

Deaths: 3M due to war, famine, ignorance of people, etc.

Colonial Era

The many explorers of Lethinia decided to make colonies since others did, they have already occupied the Aviéren Archipelago and decided to go to the other contitnent to occupy more land and they found a place where everyone wanted, there were many minerals which were useful at the time and everyone wanted a piece of it. Especially the Alaien and Marburgese which lead to "the war for Marghačene." Many Marburgese ships went to Alaie and harass them and looted some things. Alate couldnt do anything as their navy was smaller then Marburg but they arent gonna give up, they sent an army to the Marburg mainland to attack and raid them, it was usuccesful due to their proper and modern defences. (fun fact: Marburg at the time was the largest city of Lethinia) Alaian Marghačene attacked Marburgian Marghačene to hopefully push them out of the continent. It was succesful but they came back. after some years the Emperor (Louis the III) intervened and made Maghačene his own colony, this angered Alaie and Marburg but they couldnt do anything since Alaie's army was destroyed and Marburg was only naval focused and Battersea (as in capital) was landblocked (1702 - 1707). Vonštag laughed at Marburg for their failiure as their Navy was stronger but ended in a stalemate, this angred Marburg and bombed their colony (New Vonštag, Fun fact: Vonštag is actually landblocked with no coast but still made a colony throu Alaie) and made a new colony at the other side of the world. (New Marburg)

There was a small conflict between Alaie and Kelban Island to own the Archipelago at the east but Kelban Island won due to their more superior population and military. (like Alaie couldnt win that) Alaie instead went west and made New Alaie. They also discovered a new nation called Kanzlia and traded with them alot

War for the Emperorship

Many people were annoyed of Battersea since it was all so might powerful but weak at the same time. The emporer, Louis the III just passed away. His heir was not a boy tho, its was a girl! Which gave a chance to own the Emperorship. Many states decided to attack Battersea and caupture the new Empresss(named Matilda) and gain the crown to themselves. But the thing is that everyone wants it and does not want any other nation to have it so a large was has escelated. Only some fought for the crown, the others didint as they were too small or have no intrest in it. The nations which werent monarchies (like Oldenville which was a bishopric and the Arvonian league(cluster of small republics) were a republic) sided with the Empress as states which werent monarchies were not able to be emperors/empresses.

So yeah big war happen, Battersea survived and lives another day. Valeland lost some terretories, Latatea basically died.(and then reunited again) Alaie lost its holding in Quiven Island and was given to New Marburg.
