The Kaltar Throne War was the war which saw the United Kingdom of Staynes and Kaltar come into being after the surrender of the Republic of Kaltar to the Kingdom of Staynes and the Bishlan kingdoms of Dovia, Calthia and Laulia which made up the monarchist faction of Kaltar, as well the resurrection of the
In March 1513, the Kingdom of Kaltar was overthrown by a military coup which established the Republic of Kaltar. Haligar II, the King of Kaltar and father of Princess Katerina was executed. Princess Katerina was married to [[Lambertus III]] and was the second in line to the
In November 1514, Chancellor of the Republic, Gretargius Ballistra, had his prisoners of war and two of Katerina's six siblings executed. Katerina discovered the news later the same month and convinced Staynes to intervene. It was not only a personal loss to Katerina as they were distantly related by previous marriage to Lambertus III. After their execution, the Republic was unable to make friendship with either the Ethalrian's or the Molgov Dynasty despite previous talks.
From the 12th of January 1515 to the 29th of December the same year, Lambertus III led Staynes and the
With the initial execution of Halligar II's two children and another one child, Lambertus amassed an army of 140,000 Staynish and 240,000
Their victory in Lambertupol concluded the end of the war. The monarchy was re-established and Lambertus III was crowned King of the United Kingdom of Staynes and Kaltar, later the Imperial Kingdom of Morstaybishlia, on the 29th December. The remaining four siblings and cousins of Katerina who had fled to the both the Ethalrian Empire and Molgov Dynasty returned from exile. A feast on the 11th January began in Lambertupol to mark the victories. This day is celebrated annually around the world as Unity Day.

Morstaybishlian colonialism began as early as the 11th century with
Staynes led an expedition in 1444 and found the [[Necraties Islands|Necraties]] and [[Eskomia]] under Admiral Wince Ledkeat. The islands were not inhabited by any sentient species and became a pivot point for Staynish naval projection and trade prowess. Perdaé, the Necraties' capital, began life as a port town until the late 16th century, where [[Lambertus V]] designated its port to be shared for naval affairs. It was first used for this purpose when it rallied galleons in 1604 to invade Jusdelva.
Line 306:
Meanwhile, Ethalria expanded the independent Kormistazic regions, landing forces there and also in southern Staynes (today Valeria), aiming to cut off Morstaybishlia's strangehold on southwestern Aurora. Morstaybishlia was now unable to travel through the Kormistazic principality because a fleet of mainly Ethalrian warships stunned them at the Battle of Montinay in the same year. Since Ethalria had preempted Morstaybishlian movements across the Zycannes, their forces had to take harsher undefended passageways such as Dragon's End and across the West Coddles. A winter in 1798 was the coldest recorded in over fifty years, bringing below freezing temperatures into the continental centre, including over the Zycannes where the forces were passing through. Straddled down in valley settlements, including Birchlea and Emptingdale, food and wood supplies were occasionally intercepted by Ethalria, which killed a large portion of the force to starvation and the elements. Ethalria made enormous territorial gains after two long years of sieges to Morstaybishlian cities in southern Staynes, who surrendered because they ran out of supplies.

By 1799, Ethalria had beat Morstaybishlia at the Battle of Kirdintayos and had begun to absorb all of its surrounding lands and cities who surrendered. The southern Ethalrian city states that were now surrounded on all sides by Ethalria felt that their sovereignty was threatened.

After loyalists to the Ethalrian Monarchy illegitimately seized the government of the Republic of Ethalria in May 2017 to form the Greater Ethalrian Empire, the Morstaybishlian Government would call an emergency meeting between world leaders at [[Sani Bursil Royal Palace]] resulting in an allegiance of half a dozen countries to fight the new Auroran threat. Tensions rose across the world for a few weeks. The Royal Parade was not cancelled despite the best efforts of Prime Minister Walter Johannes, who deemed it 'unsafe in the current political climate'. During the parade around Sani Bursil, an assassination attempt on King Lambertus VII failed but resulted in the death of the heir apparent [[Prince Thadeus]]. It was soon thereafter discovered that the plot was orchestrated by operatives of the [[Ethalria (Matriarchy)|Matriarchy of Ethalria]] working for [[Amalda Harimann]] and Great Morstaybishlia declared war on the Matriarchy the same day.

Great Morstaybishlia as a whole comprises largely varying [[wikipedia:Ecosystem|ecosystems]]. Jusdelva has an entirely [[wikipedia:tropical climate|tropical climate]] and over 65% of the land is made up by the Flizon rainforest. The Flizon is recognised as being one of the greatest biological diversity sites in the world and is a lot more species rich than the Jubrione evergreen rainforest despite its higher level of biodiversity to other evergreen rainforests, caused by large annual rainfall from Morsa Lake which extends all the way to the Agners mountains and the Staynes-Kaltar border.
Small regions of [[Wikipedia:Moorland|Moorlands]] and the [[Wikipedia:Gran Sabana|Great Savanna]] form a natural barrier around the Jubrione evergreen rainforest to the temperate deciduous forests in Staynes. The Great Savanna offers one of the most unusual landscapes in the world, with rivers, waterfalls and gorges, deep and vast valleys, impenetrable jungles and savannahs that host large numbers and varieties of plant species, a diverse fauna and the isolated table-top [[Wikipedia:Mesa|mesas]]. The Great Savanna extends all the way from the western Staynish coast to the centre-north

In Staynes, Valeria and Jusdelva, The Court of Magistrates conduct trials. They are ranked according to the affairs and geographical area over which their jurisdiction extends. In order of least to highest, they are as follows: ward (or parish), borough (or shire), county (or district), then region (or province).

In the 2017 Census over a forth (25.6%) of the population of the Province of Horkalo said they could speak Horkalic, an increase from the 2007 Census (23%). In addition it is estimated that about 200,000 Horkalese speakers live elsewhere in Staynes. Over 492,000 people in Jusdelva (just 3% of the population) had varying Reoa language ability, including 66% of those living on the eastern islands. The number of schoolchildren being taught through minority languages are increasing.

Line 1,163:
During the Classical and Romantic periods of music, lasting from roughly 1750 to 1900, many musical instruments capable of producing new timbres and higher volume were developed and introduced into popular music. The design changes that broadened the quality of timbres allowed instruments to produce a wider variety of expression. Large orchestras rose in popularity and, in parallel, the composers determined to produce entire orchestral scores that made use of the expressive abilities of modern instruments. New instruments such as the [[Wikipedia:Clarinet|clarinet]], [[Wikipedia:Saxophone|saxophone]], and [[Wikipedia:Tuba|tuba]] became fixtures in orchestras.

Morstaybishlian art refers to all forms of visual art in or associated with the country, and encompasses Staynish art,
The training of artists, which had long been neglected, began to improve in the 18th century through government and private initiatives, and greatly expanded in the 19th century. Public exhibitions and the later opening of museums brought art to a wider public, especially in Sani Bursil. In the 19th century publicly displayed religious art once again became popular after a virtual absence for over a hundred years.

After the mass, the Battle of Wine commences. The participants toss wine on each other until everyone is completely soaked. This is greatly enjoyed by the locals and is tourist friendly. It has been televised on MBC Two since 2009.
