Political Regions of Rhesainia
🕑 Added 2021-04-11 23:07:28 +0000 UTCThe past two centuries have re-shaped the political borders of Rhesainia many times. The early 11th century saw a golden age for the Lotharic city states, small independent nations near and around the Lotharic Sea. These principalities included Calaide, Umbara, Corsida, Edessa, Nemain and Velantis. However, their independence was not to last.
Timeline
1030 - 1040 - Lotharic city state Golden Age. The Arathian Empire pushes its trade routes, capturing many small islands along the coast of Arsenia and throughout the Azure Sea.
1041 - 1145 - An extended period of conflict marked by relentless invasions from Farandor. Farandor aims to dominate the Lotharic and Azure Seas, and concentrates its forces on coastal islands and regions. It also pushes deep into Artanisian territory, eventually capturing and burning the Artanisian capital, Tyridia.
The Lotharic city states form an alliance to push the Faran invaders out of their territory, but there is little they can do against the Faran troops. Corsida, Nemain, Edessa and Calaide fall to Farandor, with Umbara and Velantis standing as the alliance's last bastions.
1146 - The Arathian Empire forms an alliance with Velantis and Umbara and extends their aid to push out the Faran invaders. Once liberated, Calaide and Corsida become vassal states and are incorporated into the Empire.
1146 - 1160 - The Arathian Empire wages a decades-long war to push out the remaining Farans. In doing so, it folds more Lotharic territory into its control. After Umbara is captured, Velantis is the last independent city state. After putting up a strong resistance, the city falls in 1160, its royal family is executed and House Anaxas is installed as the city's rulers.
After assisting Artanis in pushing out Farandor, the Empire keeps a foothold in its river delta.
1227 - Rona separates from the Arathian Empire, becoming an independent city. The Seven take control.
1234 - The Arathian Empire extends its influence over the outer reaches of Artanis.
1243 - 1252 - The annexation of Artanis main territories begins in 1243 and the nation becomes part of the Empire in 1246. With the Empire's attention on its northern border, political borders around the Lotharic and Azure seas remain the same into the present day (1252).
