'''The Imperial Realm of Norgsveldet''', more commonly known as '''Norgsveldet''' is an unitary sovereign state and a relatively small nation located in North-West [[ConcordeConcord]], sharing borders in the north east [[AtlaeAtlalandr]] and [[Kaldrbuth]] in the south east, and through its territory of Nyveldet in Gondwana it borders [[Tangrland]] and Twelijnland. Norgsveldet is an [[wikipedia:Constitutional monarchy|Constitutional monarchy]] with a [[wikipedia:Parliamentary system|parliamentary]] system, the current Monarch being his majesty King [[Olav]] the first since his corronation on the 21st of April 2002, his second eldest daughter [[Princess IngridAlexandra]] being heir. The nations's population is 8284,090974,081511 with it being relatively spread out. Norgsveldet having the second largest population in Concord. The capital is Osfjord, the nations biggest city and the nations main centre of finance and trade. [[Osfjord]]'s urban population being at 9 million, beating Norgsveldet second biggest city [[Hirdvik]]s population of 7 million. [[Hirdvik]] is often called as Norgsveldet cultural capital with it's several of cultural buildings, museums and restaurants.

Norgsveldet is also ana majorfounding member state of the [[Union of Commonwealth Alliances]], since it's formation in 1981, and is a founding member state of [[North Concordian Economic Forum]] since 1989, having often been considered as the leading nation within both organisations. With an gdp of 4,22 trillion being the second largest in Concord, only being beaten by [[South Hills]]. With it also having 7th largest military budget world wide, which is the second largest on Concord once more being beaten by [[South Hills]].

In the beginning of Norgsveldets' founding it was called '''The United Kingdoms of Riksheim and Novreheim''' or more commonly '''Riksheim-Novreheim''', however there were several of disagreements of which nations name should be first. Which was only solved after the act of unity were the both kingdoms agreed on calling the nation after the geographical region both kingdoms is placed in. Norgsveldet name come from what ancient traders called the region, mean the northern realm. The first documented use of name, is at 100 AD. Some disagreement have been about the official name for Norgsveldet during the mid 1800s came up. Some meaning that the nation should be called the kingdom of Norgsveldet, instead of the united kingdoms of Norgsveldet. Debates about it is still being held withduring the first years of Norgsveltian democracy. With parties like the Liberal National someParty arguing that nations of Riksheim and Novreheim has been so intertwined both in political and cultural that the difference between them is non existence, thiswith cantheir alsofocus beof seenbringing inforth politicsa wherelarger thenational more liberal parties is for changing the nameidentity. However from theparties morelike conservativeNational partiesCentre Party they argueargued that keeping the name as it is fits with history of two kingdoms uniting, and that the diffrences still exist between the Northern and Southern halves. The current offical name, being '''Imperial Realm of Norgsveldet''' became common usage during the early 1900s. As the nation was often called Norgsveltian Empire by foreign powers, instead of calling it by the offical name. After the independence of Eyjaria, it officaly became '''Imperial Realm of Norgsveldet''' (Norgsveltian: Imperiskeveldet av Norgsveldet) as an attempt by the prime minister Agnir Hansen to symbolise that Norgsveldet was a nation made up all states of the empire, and not just the two orginal kingdoms. This was followed up with legal reforms in the colonies in Gondwana, and the creation of the adminstrative regions of Riksheim, Novreheim, Stor Osfjord and Nyveldet. Giving a semi federal nature of the nation. With it also making Nyveldet for first time an integral part of Norgsveldet, and not a colony. The offical name is however still being seen with supicion today.

With an warning shot from Novreheim fleet accidentaly hitting one of Atlaen flag ships, the Atlaen-Norveheimblown war started. WhileIn thea navydesperate ofattempt Novreheimto was eaily crushed,resist the earlyAtlandian years of the war was still safe on land. However because of the long distancearmy, but at the year 1586 12th July the first troops from '''Atlae''' landed on Novreheim shores. Atlaen troops clashed against Novreheims troops at the battle of Hirdvik, 140 000 Atlean soldiers against 90 000 soldiers from Novreheim led by King Fredrik VII himself. The battle at first looked like it would be anof Novreheim victory,sent but after an lone gun shot hit Fredrik V the moral droped for his troops and they fled. With Novreheims king dead with no heir, the council of elders was in panic. While there were disagreements ona whatletter to do, the council of elders knew that asking for peace is to surrender to whatever demands is asked for. This terrified councilsmen which made them desperate for any help. They turned to their neighbour in the south for help, King Varg I of Riksheim wasin unsurewhich whatwith topromise do.of Vargswearing I was sure that if Novreheim falls his nation is next, but goingloyalty to warRiksheim for simply protecting an other nation would anger his people.

However after massive loses from both sidesNorgsveldet, Kingand Varg agreed on signing a peace with king of '''Atlae'''. Which allowed '''Atlae''' to keepgave the portcity of Ulvik, but was forcedUlvrik to sign war reperations and to stop all influnce in the regionNovreheim. After which the kingdoms of Riksheim and Novreheim sign the union agreement of 1594 17th of May, with King Varg I stating that the union will be equal and loose. Which can be seen when the only thing the two kingdoms shared was an common foreign policy and millitary, withcreating evena two seperate head ofdual statesmonarchy, King Varg I of Riksheim and Queen Elizabeth I of Novreheim. With King Varg I putting princess Elizabeth as queen in Novreheim to ensure that the council of Elders would not pick an monarch that would go against him.

While officaly in name an union, commonly it was more seen as an alliance. While Varg I thought that by putting his daughter would ensure his control over Novreheim, he was proven wrong when Elizabeth I actively disagreed with his views. Which could be seen at 1608 where King Varg I ordered her to increaseraise millitarythe spendingtaxes on her side of the kingdom, however Elizabeth disobeyed her father by stating that more millitary spending is not needed for building the new union. There were other disagreements like trade, taxes and political power between the two monarchs. The biggest diseagreements between the two was that Elizabeth wanted to increase the power of the council of elders. This inraged King Varg as it limited the little power he already had over Novreheim, but was welcomed with open arms from the council of elders. At the year 1624, 13th October King Varg I died, and his son Crown Prince Harald was crowned King Harald I of Riksheim. BecauseAfter ofseveral theirmonths of mourning both King Harald I and Elizabeth I promised to work together not only as two leaders of one nation, but as family. With certain disagreements still left both made an new and more unified document of the union. At 1624 21st of October King Harald I and Queen Elizabeth I with their advisers made an new consitution and renamed the nation into the United Kingdoms of Norgsveldet. The document first and second paragraf is: 1p The United Kingdoms of Norgsveldet is an equal, fair and free union between the Kingdoms of Novreheim and Riksheim. 2p The union shall have an common foreign policy, millitary, monarch, taxes and legislator. King Harald I was decided hasas the common monarch for Norgsveldet for his millitary expirence, however Elizabeth became the king's most trusted adviser. The council of elders was also given more power and could limit how much the king could demand in taxes. With Harald becoming the king of both Riksheim and Novreheim, he was called King Harald I of the unitedUnited kingdomsKingdoms of Norgsveldet. Harald I also declared Norgsveldet as the true succesor of the UlvikrikUlvrikian Empire as such contesting [[Atlae]]’s claim of the title. This often being set as the start of the First Norgsveltian Empire. With Harald expanded Norgsveltian holdings in Gondwana that it inherited from Riksheim. With the small colonies in costal cities in Nyveldet, being reorganised as one colony, with Nyveldet being the name given. After that Harald I made smaller coastal duchies in modern [[Meremaa]] into unoffical vassals. With also clear trade influnce over the diffrent clanssmaller kingdoms that made up modern day [[Tiervan]], [[Dvergerland]] and [[Dvalheim]].

At the year 1648 princessPrincess Elizabeth died, and few months later of the same year so did King Harald I. His son, Crown Prince Sverre was then crowned as King Sverre I at the capital, Osfjord.

AtAs such at 1837, King Haakon II was shotassassinated deadby an gunmen hired by thesouthern liberalaristocrats rebels,and asmilitary officers. As such hisCrown sonPrince Fredrick was corronated king Fredrick I, and tried reversing the reforms of his father, to appease the nobility. However his rule was also cut short when his palace was surrounded by the angry crowds at 1847, whichwhen a news paper named Osfjord Tidene exposed the truth King Haakon II's death to the public. The crowds forced him to abdicate for the favor of his more liberal and populare brother Prince Varg. After his corronation at 2nd of January 1848, the start of his rule was the start of making Norgsveldet into an democratic and parlimentary [[wikipedia:Constitutional monarchy|Constitutional monarchy]], and the continuation of his father's policies. At 1850 10th of April, King Varg III assembled an national assembly from people accross the nation. Where both nobles and commonors was represented. As such the current constitution was formed, which ensured the freedom of protest, press and speech. It also heavily limited the powers of the king, effectly making him an symbolic figure. However it ensured that king had some royal powers incase of war and emergency. The first elections was held at 1851, with the political parties of National Centre Party (NCP) and the Liberal national party (LNP). With the Christian Michelsen of NCP being chosen as the first prime minister of Norgsveldet. WithDuring histhis policiestime Norgsveldet went through heavy industrialisation, which increased the overall wealth of the nation and Varg III forced many within the nobility to either let go of their titles or be exiled to the colonies. NorgsveldetThe Norgsveldetian mainland went also through an big population boom during the 1800s, going from 22 million at the start of 1800 to 49 million at 1900, which ensured further and further settlement into the colonies. The 1800s was also a time of national romanticism in Norgsveldet. With several famous paintings from famous artists.

After the election of 1954, prime minster Agnir Hansen was elected as the first elven prime minister and the first labour party prime minister. After several years of the politics be dominated by NCP and LNP. Agnir Hansen policies ensured more welfare, higher social securities, higher taxes and more state owned companies. With foreign policy being one of isolation, as he tried to make the nation more self sufficient. Agnir Hansen and the prime minister of Eyjaria, Georg Bjørnhjelm signed the treaty of Svenhus, which gave Eyjaria independence, while also ensuring free trade between both nations and an common currency. At 19641960 Norgsveldet tested its first nuke, after Agnir Hansen was heavily pressured from parliament and from the Queen to create an nuclear arms program. At 1965 Ragnar Aasen from [[AsatruUlvriktru Democrats]] was elected as prime minister, thanks to his anti-communist rethoric and promises of increased nuclear build up. Which by 1965, Norgsveldet had nuclear stockpile of 10050. Under his ministry the nation supported a military coup against the Communist goverment in Helslandr, and jointsupported invasionRoyalist againstIncurgencies Socialistin the Republic of AtlaeAtlalandr, which lead to the reinstating the monarchy there in what is now called the [[Violet Restoration War]]., Whichbut manywith pointsAtlalandr atdivided with a constitutional monarchy in the [[Atlalandr|West]] and a republic in the [[East Atlalandr|East]]. The war causing an increasedlarge amountincrease of political radicalisation within Norgsveldet. SuchWhich asincreased the farpopularity rightto Nationala Unionfar Party(NUP)left andparty called the far left SocialistNorgsveltian EinarismEinarist Party(SEPNEP), spawing after the War. However how much it affected political life in Norgsveldet was uncertain, with the NEP highest electoral success to be 7.56%. After the reelection of Ragnar Aasen in 1969 Norgsveldet was dragged into war, after Tiereshs Nationalist militias declared Tiervan independenceindependet from Norgsveldet. Agnir Hansen’s was defeated in 1972 by the NCP leader Jakop Storhaug, for his failure at dealing with the Tieresh nationalists, with the NCP critizing him for early loses in the war and to relaxed diplomacy with East Cerdani that was supporting the Tieresh Nationalists. With Jakop however being replaced as party leader in 1981, that same year Norgsveldet, New Legans, Dvalheim and Eyjaria made the international organisation called the [[Union of Commonwealth Alliances]] or "Union av Sammenveld Alianser" in Norgsveltian, which is an millitary and economic alliance. The alliance was made mainly to strengthen Norgsveldet economic power after the bloody war against Tiervan in the [[Tieresh Independence War]] ended with a loss with only keeping the small nation of Dvalheim as a puppet in the region, however ended up giving independence to other colonies like [[Meremaa]] in North Gondwana. In 1984 Queen Magrete I was assasinated by far left terrorist from Socialist Einarismthe PartyNEP. Which the then prime minister Ivar Dval used as an reason to pass an law banning said party, and any far left party. Causing for many from the [[NCP]] voterbase turn to Labour Party leader Magrete Kverheim in the 1985 election, in which she formed an Grand coalition with the AsatruUlvriktru Democrats and Liberal National Party.

In contrast heavily urban areas in mainland Norgsveldet politicslike Osfjord had heavy public sympathy to Olav, often from labour movements and kemonomimi migrant communities. Even Magrete Kverheim having given her public support to the Crown Prince. Norgsveldet was also dragged into the [[Meremaa Civil War]] (1990-1994) after the republican forces attacked an AsatruUlvriktru temple and Morstaybishlia officaly supported the republicans, after disagreements in the goverment and the [[AsatruUlvriktru Democrats]] pressured that they would leave the coalition. Norgsveldet supported monarchist side in the civil war. After the victory of the monarchists gave Norgsveldet greater standing in geopolitical affairs abroad but has put as a standing point of continued Morstaybishlian-Norgsveltian rivalries.
