===The First Kingdom (1840-1880)===
 
=== The First Kingdom (1840-ish-1880) ===
In 1838, a few noble families from the Grand Duchy came to the court of the Archduke and asked for a unification of the countries after Western Alksearia went through their third coup in 6 years. At the time, a council of the strongest nobles controlled Western Alksearia, with their Grand Duke as the Head of the Council. Two noble families started to gather supporters behind them to claim the newly established throne: House Tuvania and House Delvarian. Neither house was willing to give in to the other, and it resulted in a 2-year war known colloquially as the [[First Succession War]]. There were only three battles that were fought in this brief war: The Battle of Novia Pass, the Battle of Alkia's Run, and the Battle of Delvarian's coast. In the end, after three crushing defeats, the Delvarian House surrendered and allowed for the head of the Tulvanian house to be the first monarch. On the morning of April 13th, 1840, Lord Eldras III was crowned King Eldras. Upon his ascent, since he already was the third of his name, King Eldras continued with keeping his suffix of Eldras III.
Alksearia exists!
====King Eldras III (1840-1843)====
 
=== The BriefRepublic Republican Eraof Alksearia(1880-1890) ===
After ascending to the throne, King Eldras III immediately sought to bring stability to the realm. His first act as King was to nominate a Council of Lords who would serve as the King's closest advisors. This role served two purposes. The first role was to prevent the strongest nobles from rebelling against the new Kingdom, and the second role was to find areas of the realm that needed immediate attention. King Eldras III also sought political alliances from different nations that would recognize their monarchy. He was largely unsuccessful, but he did gain international attention. By the end of 1840, the nation was looking more stable, but there were still difficulties ahead.
No more Kings! Supreme Minister ftw!!
 
=== The Interregnum and Civil War(1890-1892) ===
The first month of 1841 was largely uneventful. Most that happened was the increase of national power and the rise of a centralized government. However, the first controversial decree, known as the 1841 Land Reform and Taxation Act, would be passed on February 2nd, 1841. This caused major backlash from most members of the nobility, and lead to a rebellion that would last the rest of 1841. King Eldras III's right to rule was tested once again as a religious fervor was sweeping the nation. The [[Church of Xaethos]] had taken root in Eastern Alksearia roughly around 1500, but now the church had short-lived splinter group known as [[Xaethos's Chosen]]. [[Xaethos's Chosen]] declared that the only monarch fit to rule them was Xaethos himself and that the Monarch was the Anti-Leader and had come to destroy the nation. King Eldras III declared that all holy men and women of Xaethos should rise up against the heretical claims of Xaethos's Chosen declaring in :
Ooops, no head government. Pew Pew! FIghting time!
 
==== The Second Kingdom (19021892-Present Day2020)= ===
''"Recently, a group of wicked men declared that they knew the Holy Texts of Xaethos better than our own Archbishop Alexandrian of House Pope. They declared that Xaethos is the only worthy Leader and that I am the incarnate Anti-Leader here to drive Eastern Alksearia to the ground. Rest assured, I am here to lead Eastern Alksearia in an era of unexplored territory and politics. Progress is painful, and some people wish to reject progress. Let us stand against this adversity, and rise together as a stronger nation!"''
Oh look, we good again.
 
=== The ModernThird Kingdom (18932020-1902Present Day) ===
Xaethos's Chosen tried to assault the capital and capture King Eldras III. It failed as their men mostly got shot down by Archers and then assaulted by the royal band of King Eldras III. After the arrest of Xaethos's Chosen's leader and the fall of splinter group in June 1842, King Eldras' attention was now fully committed to the rebellious nobles in the North. These nobles had been getting considerable kickbacks before the formation of the Kingdom, and were quite disgruntled at the Monarchy for a while. They were headed by the new head of House Delvarian, Lord Derrious II.The Rebellion of 1842 would end after King Eldras' army marched into Lord Derrious' capital and arrest him and several other nobles at a round-table. King Eldras then passed another decree, known as the Judicial Powers and Empowerment Act of 1842, that he used to try these nobles in court. The resulting court cases resulted in all of the nobles being sentenced to death, but due to incompetency in the jailhouse, Lord Derrious II escaped. The next morning, November 2nd 1842, the nobles were executed.The remainder of 1842 was spent overhauling the legal code and making sure that any other noble that dared rebelled would know the consequences. Unfortunately, this would mark the end for King Eldras III since on January 23rd, 1843, in an act of revenge, Lord Derrious II entered the palace at the request of the King to pass judgment on his crimes against the crown. In this "peaceful" move, Lord Derrious II ended up stabbing the King and leaving him to die. On January 24th 1843, Lord Eldras IV rose to power, and on February 1st 1843, he was crowned King Eldras IV.
ELECTIONS!! Idk, there will be better content
 
==== King Eldras IV (1843-1844)====
 
King Eldras IV didn't get to accomplish much in his tenure as king. He continued the centralization that his father had started, and completed the overhaul of the court system. On May 6th, 1843, King Eldras IV created and passed the decree known as The Power of the Courts and the Court Process. This is the only decree that King Eldras IV would pass before he would be injured by a hunting accident and end up passing on February 4th, 1844. The crown was now passed onto his brother Lord Albert. He took on the name Eldras in honor of his brother and father who had died. The new King Eldras was the younger brother, and onyl took over at the tender age of 18.
====King of Eldras V and Queen Catherine I (1844-1852)====
 
King Eldras V got married to Catherine of House Iberous on March 23rd, 1844. Queen Catherine would help King Eldras make important decisions and helped govern the Kingdom. Within two years, Queen Catherine had set herself up to be integral part of the monarchy and all decisions being made. By late 1846, King Eldras and Queen Catherine had passed their first decree: The reorganization of Lord's territories and the Consolidation of Lord titles (1846). This decree stopped the formation of new Lord tittles and fiefs for 10 years, and allowed the Monarchy to survey and get a better understanding of the regions that have been established. By December 1846, the number of regions (and therefore Lords) decreased from 150 to just about 75. In early 1847, Lords that had been stripped of their title tried to petition the crown to reinstate their title or to award them new land. The Monarchy declined and told them that "The tittles and fiefs you hold are more than sufficient for your position." A second decree would be passed by the Monarch later in 1847 that would mandate the registration of the Lords of the land. This event lead to the Northern lords to rise up in rebellion against the "overreaching, tyrannical Monarchy." The Rebellion of 1847 would end up lasting 3 years with new Lords joining the rebellion as other lords would be put down and arrested. By the start of 1850, the rebellion was finally over. King Eldras V was able to fully secure
 
==== Succession Crisis (1852)====
 
In December of 1851, Queen Catherine would die from a lung infection, long presumed to be caused by untreated pneumonia. King Eldras V would grieve her death every day until he himself died. In February 1852, he ordered the construction of a Statue in her honor.and it would be placed in the newly created Catherine square. However, Eldras V would not live to see the end of construction because on March 5th, 1852, King Eldras V would end up passing leaving the Kingdom to his only child, Rhea. King Eldras V loved Rhea to the end of the Urth, and wanted to see her inherit. He had the succession laws changed so that she would be allowed to inherit, and he had each Lord sign a declaration legitimizing her right to reign. Unfortunately, Rhea was getting ready to be crowned and become the new ruler of Eastern Alksearia, Lord Xaen of House Interrious declared that there was an illegitimate heir to throne that Eldras birthed. He decreed that his nephew, Sir Vanos, was the true heir to the throne, and that Lord Xaen was going to press his nephew's claim to the throne. The [[Second War of Succession]] fired off with only two factions. By May of 1852, a third contender for the throne tried to press their claim to the throne: Lord Albertus of House Rivera. He claimed that he was a cousin of Rhea's because of marriage 4 generations ago. Princess Rhea personally lead an army of 10,000 against both Lord Xaen and Lord Albertus. On August 3rd, Lord Albertus made a public declaration that his claim was fabricated and unfounded. He then proclaimed that he would fight for the "true heir" Sir Vanos since Lord Xaen showed proof that Sir Vanos was a direct descendant. A week later, Princess Rhea routed a small force that was escorting Lord Albertus where Rhea imprisoned Lord Albertus on the spot. 4 days later, Lord Albertus was charged with treason and sentenced to death for his crimes. Lord Xaen would pass on September 1st, leaving Sir Vanos high and dry without any support. The next day, Sir Vanos surrendered and sent a letter to Princess Rhea that his claim to the throne was unfounded and illegitimate, and that his uncle wanted to overthrow the monarchy for his own gains.
 
====Queen Rhea I (1853-1870)====
Rhea's first royal act was to hold a trial for both Sir Vanos and Lord Albertus. They were sentenced to death for treason, and their exceution was held on September 20th, 1853.
 
====The Three King Crisis (1870-1880)====
On December 1st, 1870, Prince Erik I was crowned King of Eastern Alksearia. At only 17 years old, he was left with little to no aid in running the Kingdom. His father, King-father Dylan, left the royal palace and abandoned his child to be in charge of the whole

===The Interregnum and Civil War===
====Interregnum(1890-1893)====
 
The Interregnum begins when the government formed by Alvarious II collapses with the resignation of PM Alvarious II. Alvarious II resigns over the inability to keep control over the Parliament, and the lack of power the Reformist Party had in 1889. The Reformist Party immediately went to a conference where the party was shocked to learn that Alvarious II has completely resigned from the Parliament and the Reformist Party, which is directly in violation of the Parliament Act passed by his father. The Party started the conference on November 29th, 1889, but would end prematurely on January 2nd, 1890. The Party voted to dissolve, leaving the "Independents" in charge of the Parliament. The Parliamentarian Party proposed resolution CL-Dissolve, which was passed 149-1. The only vote against was by a hardcore reformist, MP Allaniar of the North Urgia, who had a reputation of voting against the will of the Parliament. On January 3rd, 1890, the government formally declared that they were dissolving without any successor. At 12:35pm, the Monarchist Party of the Parliament had declared that they were declaring Lord Eldras VI of House Tuvania as the successor to the Parliament. At the same time, the Parliament faction declared that their leader, MP Antonio of West Soria, was going to call for a new elections. At 2:20pm, the leaders from both side met at Urgia-Novia in the Urgia State House to discuss terms on the new government. On January 4th, at 8:30am, the closed-door conference had started between Lord Eldras VI and MP Antonio had begun. By 9:04am, reports of a compromise had emerged from the meeting. At 9:10am, the first coalition had officially formed, but at 9:20am, the coalition fell apart after a driver outside the Urgia State House opened fire and fatally shot both MP Antonio and Lord Eldras VI. On January 5th, MP Allaniar declared that he was responsible for the shooting, and that he has declared himself Lord sovereign of Eastern Alksearia until a new Parliament could be elected, where he would propose a new Constitution and declaring all nobility to be enemies of the state. Lord Hector I of House Tuvania was announced as the new sovereign over Alksearia where his first Declaration of office declared the end of the Republic and any MP that refused to acknowledge the kingdom, would be treated enemies against the Crown. On January 5th at 11:43am, the Reformists and a good chunk of the Parliamentarians declared their independence as the Republic of New Alksearia. The newly declared Kingdom immediately declared war on the Republic, leading to the events of the Alksearian Civil War.
