Three Golden Kingdoms

The Dominion of Shirlan had been a tranquil and peaceful country over the past century. This was helped when Hirom Jacotti of the kingdom of Sciras unified the five other warring kingdoms under his banner with his forces. Before Hirom's defeated the five other kingdoms, the past century had been marked by the bloodspilling of one kingdom against the other. Yet that was all made a distant memory when Jacotti defeated Julian Pargas at the battle of Harlicarnusius. In exchange for the lives of his soldiers, Pargas swore allegiance to Jacotti and his kingdom. The lords of the other kingdoms of all swore similiar allegiances, and Hirom returned home to his kingdom of Sciras and established the capital of this new Dominion he had formed. With their forces depleted, the other five kingdoms were forced to accept Hirom's rule.

Without the fear of opposing kingdoms attacking their caravans, merchants began to flock back to the region. The shattered kingdoms of Rosenatti, Laponia, Mudoma, Juran, and Gegorus welcomed the wealth that the merchants brought and used it to slowly rebuild their forces and land. Jacotti worked tirelessly to keep the peace, and passed laws that created an Imperial army to maintain the peace. The army was scarecely used, and most of its' forces were stationed at key border fortresses. Despite his death twenty years after Harlicarnusius, his son of Ju took up the crown and kept the peace. Yet when old age dealt Ju his death last year, a religious cult known as the Red Ribbon Battalion began to infiltrate the Imperial Court. With Ju's son Niko just a mere eight years old, the relgiious cult's supposed divine leader, Foros Jargs, is manipulating the young emporer to further his cult's own amibitions. What those amibitions are, one can only imagine, but it is known that a great number of peasantry has been conscripted into the Imperial Army and the trade caravans heading towards the other five kingdoms have been attacked.

As a result of these actions, a call to arms has been made by Hero Fortuna of Rosenatti. The impressive figures of Augstos Hergai of Juran, Karsan Mattian of Mudoma, Ero Siron of Lipona, and Regos Weart of Gegorus are seen gathering in a council at the sacred garden of Trelios in Rosenatti to discuss the appropiate responce to the Imperial transgressions...

OCC: I shall be controlling the forces of the Rosenatti and the Imperials. Those wishing to take control of one of the other four factions need to TG me as there are some circumstances that must be provided before your allowed to post.

A rough map to help orient people, also some basic information about the kingdoms.

The Laponia have great infrastructure and calvary units. They can mobolize their forces quickly and get to any part of their kingdom within hours.

Mudoma has the best generals, but fewest amount of recourses and soldiers. Many of the Rosenatti generals went to school in Mudoma, as well as the Imperals.

The Juran are highly developed war society whose turns out the best soldiers, yet have no proven generals. If they could just get some sort of leadership they could easily challange the Imperials and Rosenatti for the most powerful kingdoms in the region.

Gegorus has small amount of troops but is in the northern mountains and is an easily defendable position with tons of iron to mine/barter/etc..

The Rosenatti and Imperials have good amounts of soldiers, good generals, a fair amount of recourses, infrastructure, and the wealth needed to wage a prolonged war independently.

Augstos Hergai, a well built fellow, his muscles told everything, he was a warrior, a man who went into the thick of Battle. A man that could perhaps tear your arms off if he so desired, but then that wouldn't be civilised. Adapt with the sword and the musket he was perhaps the most physically threatening person that ever would enter.

So he entered, and grunted a bit, he was early and this annoyed him, nothing could get done until everyone else was here which meant waiting around making idle chit-chat wasting his and everyone elses time that was there.

He found a corner and waited to see when the rest of them would turn up.
