The '''House of Cenhelm''', also known as the '''House of Sigested''' (Norvian: ''Casa Segesteda''), the '''Cenhelmings''' (Tretridian: ''Cenhelmingas''), and the '''House of Easþrena''' is a Novaran royal house of Tretridian origin that ruled Easþrena from its foundation in the 10th century until Tretridian unification in the 13th century, and ruled [[Tretrid]] and [[Seccera]] from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The cognatic line of the House of Cenhelm continues to rule Tretrid<!--under insert house name here-->. It was founded by [[Cenhelm I]] in the 10th century after his founding of [[Sigested]] and repulsion of vikings from the east. |

The Cenhelmings would unify a large swath of land under Easþrena, which they would rule until 1255 upon its conquest by Norþrena amidst Tretridian unification. Though they were dispossessed of their ancestral seat in Sigested, the House of Cenhelm ended up as an influential player in medieval Tretridian politics. In 1689, Wilheard III became the first Cenhelming king of Tretrid and Seccera after inheriting the crowns from his mother Eadgyð I, and the House of Cenhelm would continuously rule the two kingdoms in personal union until the death of Bada II in 1802, upon which the line of succession was split. During that time, they played a major role in Volscine politics due both to the relative amount of power Seccera had and their ability to draw resources from Tretrid. |
