Auravas: Difference between revisions

Though it had received a major victory in the Kaskadan Succession War, Auravas immediately faced the rapid spread of Silvism, further driven due to the presence of the Silvist Korcetta in much of what was Liesvozia. General mistrust of Silvism was further exacerbated by extreme violence against non-humans by Silvist groups, particularly in the southern regions with large human populations, where non-human populations are estimated to have decreased by around 20% between 1271 and 1284 due to violence and emigration. In 1284, King Partakol enacted the Edict of Unity, banning the practice of Silvism in the Kingdom and the Edict of Persecution, which began formal cooperation between the Kingdom of Auravas and the Sacred Guard, which had gained significant influence during the Era of Liesvozia, in order to persecute and root out Silvism from Auravas. Communities across the Kingdom ripped apart because of the intense Silvist violence, many extremist groups now targeting human non-Silvists, who were seen as collaborating with the non-humans, or the equally as intense violence returned by Shviesist forces. Silvist forces were further bolstered by many nobles in the south taking advantage of Auravas' recent suzerainty over them to convert to Silvist and maintain an additional level of autonomy.
