Empire of Narikaton and Darnussia

The United Republic of Narikaton and Darnussia is a nation located in the south western part of Artania but three of its states are islands and are in the shores of Majatra. It was originally called Darnussia, but became the UR due to the surrender of the Communist's during the Second Darnussian Civil War, giving the Imperials victory. After much negotiation, the UR was kept a republic.

Beginning of a Civilization
The first people that settled in the area now known the United Republic consisted of many different ethnic groups. The most dominant ethnic group was the Semitic peoples and they ruled from the Island of Narikaton. They followed the religion of Judaism and called them selves Narikatonites. The Narikatonites were different then normal Jews at the time as the Narikatonites combined pagan Gods with the Judaism religion. In the years of 550-564 there was a mass exodus of Jews leaving Darnussia via sail boats and they sailed to modern day Beiteynu. Some Jews stayed in Darnussia because it was already an established place with agriculture and fishing.

By the year 615 the Jews who stayed behind had blended in with the Narikatonites and soon their religion did not resemble Judaism but just another pagan cult. The people living there became less religious and focused more on life and on themselves. In 775 respected nobles from Darnussia appointed a leader to lead the peoples of all Darnussia regardless of ethnicity. War of Narikatonite Succession would erupt between different men who wanted to be crowned King, in the end Darntus the Flying was crowned King of the Darnussians. King Darntus I named his country and countrymen Darnussians after himself. Few years later he joined the mainland areas into the kingdom in Unification War of Darnussia.

Once King Darntus I was crowned King he rewarded every Darnussian man a cow and every Darnussian women with a Chicken. These reforms were recieved well by the public and King Darntus maintained high morale everywhere. Near the end of his long reign it is said that King Darntus I became insane and he tried to jump off a large temple so he could prove to everyone that he could fly, he hit the ground and died. The nobles appointed King Darntus's son King Darntus II to be his successor.

King Darntus II was widely known to be the opposite of his father, he ruled with an iron fist and his many reform policies failed. King Darntus II in a last attempt to recharge his failing Kingdom enslaved the small Jewish population. Darntus II ruled for 23 years in tell he was killed by a Jewish Women who he tried to rape. The Kingdom of Darnussia would be ruled by different Kings for many years.

Christian Influence
Large amounts of Darnussians were following different pagan religions, this caused conflict among the Darnussians and different pagans went to war with each other claiming their religion was supieror. In an attempt to reconcile and unify the country King Simon III declared Christianity the official religion of Darnussia. Mass conversions both voluntarily and forced conversations took place. The devout pagans found comfort in this new religion as Christianity had a "Trinity". The Jewish population were allowed to stay Jewish but they had to only practice their religion in secret and many chose to do this. Others fled to the Far East.

Brief Revolution
During the 18th century there was a large uprising that took place all over Darnussia. Darnussia was in a massive famine and the workers were getting angry at the King and the Nobles. This lead to what is now known in Darnussian History as the Brief Revolution. The reason it is called the Brief Revolution is because the workers and the peasants for a brief period time overthrew the monarchy of Darnussia. The revolution was lead by three men who formed a Triumvirate. The three men were Carlo Abruzzi, Aurelio Sasperi, and Moshes Federer. The men declared Darnussia a Republic and declared that every men had individual rights. The Triumvirate passed popular legislation to eliminate burdensome taxes and to give work to the unemployed. The revolution only lasted 345 days because the King with assistance from different countries and mercenaries led an army against the Darnussian Republic and successfully restored order to the Monarchy. After the Brief Revolution the men who formed the Triumvirate were arrested but later released for unknown reasons.

Last King of Darnussia
The last King of Darnussia was King Cecil I. It is a widely reported fact that Cecil I was indeed a homosexual and his frequent gay orgies angered the Christian population of Darnussia. Cecil I declared Darnussia a secular state in 1966. What happened next was a bizarre twist of events then eventually led to the downfall of the Darnussian monarchy. King Cecil I was in his Royal Palace watching explicit men doing explicit things. The next day Cecil I would wound up in a river with his private parts shoved in his mouth, it is widely believed that Cecil's bodyguards were the ones who killed Cecil I.

War
In 2124 the government of Beiteynu declared war upon Darnussia, they claimed that Darnussia was stockpiling weapons of mass destruction. They also claimed that the Jewish population living in Darnussia were being oppressed. A eventual stalemate occurred between the Darnussian forces and the Beitenyuanse forces with neither side obtaining victory. Taken from History of Beiteynu: ''After 26 years of the stalemate in 2150 the Chief Rebbe called for the complete capitulation of Darnussia and the remainder of the army was sent to the islands. This included conscripting all men over the age of 19 to the army. Sensing this Darnussian government immediately sent telgrams to both Pontesi and Barmenistan to form a three nation alliance against Beiteynu. Pontesi and Barmenistan invaded from the south and with the army all fighting on the islands they were able to capture the bottom half of the nation. The Chief Rebbe panicked and ordered all troops to return to mainland Beiteynu leaving the islands easy for Darnussia to reclaim. However by now the Pontesi-Barmenistan alliance had grown too strong and with the Darnussians pushing from the north the entire nation was occupied within four years. The three nation alliance to enable easy governance divided the nation into three zones with Barmenistan taking Quo'gün and Padrilka, Darnussia taking Endlid and Fruskila and Pontesi taking Tadraki. Each nation appointed an army commander to oversee their respective zone and all were governed by military rule.''

By far the biggest attempt to end Deltarian rule was the Revolution of 2323 however this ended in failure as many Darnussians died and Red Stad was hit by a nuclear weapon.

Geography


The United Republic was once almost completely covered with forest, but thousands of years of civilisation had it's toll on the nature and have changed it radically. Most of the old forrest were cut down to build houses and ships to sail over the Migrant's Pass. There are three major rivers in Darnussias mainland. The Crow is largest of them if counted with the amount of water and it flows from the Great Lake of Alkavon to the Bay of Migrant. Ghacrow, the largest city in Darnussia was built at it's delta. Redriver is the strongest and broadest of Darnussian Rivers and it goes through New Parts of Red Stad and flows to Bay of Migrant. The third large river is Cerrot River that flows from Malivia to Bay of Migrant. There are also Alkavon Mountains at the very border of Alkavon and Beluzia.

Other parts of Darnussia consist mainly from the two islands at Migrant's Pass, Island of Narikaton and Island of Shirmania. Both of the islands have high mountains and they are relatively far from the mainland, which once caused some cultural differences between the mainland Darnussians and the Darnussians of Jewish Descent in the islands. There are also smaller islands at the middle of the Inner Sea of Darnussia known as the Migrant Islands. They are relatively small and are considered being part of Nihaton.

Alkavon
Alkavon is one of the two mainland Duchies of the United Republic and it is also the most populated part of the entire country. The ex-largest city in Darnussia, Ghacrow, is also in Alkavon (it was destroyed during the 2nd Civil War). The population in Alkacon consists mainly from Darnussians of Non-Jewish Descent and Lusitânians. People in Alkavon have somewhat conservative views, but they are not as religious as many other Darnussian conservatives are. Majority of Alkavon could be described as Moderate Liberals.

Clenon
Clenon is the 2nd largest Duchy in the United Republic and it's capital is Podrueja. Most of the people in Clenon are Darnussians of Jewish Descent and Judaism is strong in southern parts of the state. Majority of people of Clenon are very conservative and religious and they believe in strong military.

Narikaton
Narikaton is one of the richest regions in the United Republic, but they also have the largest unemployment rate. Most of the Darnussians in Narikaton are of Non-Jewish Descent, but Judaism is also strong there. They are mildy secular in their religious views, but at the same time very restrictive in civil rights. The capital of Narikaton is Merenbürg. Narikaton is the strongest Duchy, with nearly all of the power of the nation. This was recieved during the Civil War.

Nihaton
Nihaton is the richest part of the United Republic and the core of the Darnussian Islands. Nihaton's capital is Moete. People in Nihaton are not right- or leftwing and they could be described as Moderate Capitalists. Half of the Darnussians in Nihaton are of Jewish Descent and half are not, so Judaism is strongly represented in Nihaton. In general people of Nihaton are secular-leaning. Most of the Deltarian Minority lives in Nihaton.
