Hion Norld claims plot 1627

In the times before the the uniting of Hion Norld, the 4 tribes would compete and battle. The first tribe, Hi, was lead by a calm, cool, and collected leader Edward the thoughtful. Although his tribe was the most prosperous of the area, was the least active in intertribal relations, but had a close alliance with one of the other tribes, On, On’s leader was Laura the cunning. Although they wanted peace, they had a tendency to engage in wars against No and Rld, both of defense, and aggression (presumably pre-emptive action). The culture of both Hi and On where ones of art and literature, although those in the lower classes tended to be looked down apon, causing some tensions between the lower and upper class in these places. Both nations have a tendancy to be taller than the other two. The tribe of No, is lead by Anthony the Vicious. In the more tribial culture of No, cruelty and war are more admired and respected, Millitary service for 2 years was mandatory before the assimilation, and still is to this day. And Rld lead by Joseph the Young, the Rld was always a semi mix between the other tribes, so it was only natural that they be the ones to unite them. A major war had not been declared in decades and the lines where already starting to blur, leading to the founding of the nation Hion Norld, about 5 years ago. The kingdom is relitively peaceful with all of the monarchs of the respective tribes meeting at the Tribal Table, to discuss issues of the Kingdom. The head monarch being voted on democracy by the dukes and duchesses of the land. But Hopi Norld is not entirely peaceful, not by a long shot. The fact is, that the populous is more and more divided, some cling to the ways of the old Nationalistic tribes, while others embrace and celebrate the new Kingdom. The chances of a full out civil war are low, but political manipulation, blackmailing, and back room deals are sure to happen. Not only facing the political strife, but the now 20 year old King Joseph’s nation is opening to the outside world due to lack of trade and a stunted economy. Nevertheless, this small, new, fragile nation is about to enter the world. As King Joseph sits on his throne, he finishes typing the first international decree of Hopi Norld.

“Hello people and nations of the world, this is King Joseph, leader of the Kingdom of Hopi Norld. We hope to have a prosperous future by your side, we are a friendly nation, and a relitively new one. Our main concern is trade relations and boosting our economy, so we will welcome any trade relations. We will welcome any diplomats, embassies, and letters with open arms. We hope that our future with the international community is one of peace and brightness. Thank you.”

And with that, Hopi Norld had said it’s first international words. The announcement had already been made that the Nation was opening up to people from outside the nation. Ports and markets where being set up eagerly, the merchants happy to have more customers. One such merchant is Ki Edwardo. He is a humble seller of fruit in the Newport Market, with Newport being the nations capital, and on the coastline, made it an ideal spot for setting up a merchant stand, but hundreds of fruit sellers, along with thousands of other merchants, had already thought the same thing. Hopefully he could stand out, such is the life of a merchant.
