North Ethalria: Difference between revisions

Ethalria spread a renewed interest in the humanities, science, exploration and art during the 15th and 16th centuries. Ethalrian culture prospered, producing famous artists, polymaths, and scholars. During the Middle Ages, Ethalrian maritime exploration discovered new routes to [[Gondwana]] and [[Novaris]], piquing a new age of Auroran Discovery and colonialism. Huge sociopolitical reforms from their defeat in the [[Posolic Wars]] in 1826 saw Ethalria dethroned as a world power by Morstaybishlia, saw the end of its colonial empire and saw it transition into a matriarchy; where women came to dominate all aspects of life. From the late 19th century to the early 20th century, Ethalria rapidly industrialised, creating a vast dispora. Ethalria briefly re-entered as a global power at the conclusion of the [[Great War]] following its reclaimation of [[Marislia]]. In the 1930s1920s, the [[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Grand Matriarchy]] hid the [[Marislian genocide]] from the world, systematically murdering and expelling approximately 2.75 million ethnic [[Marish people]]. In 1941, Ethalrian scientists discovered [[Wikipedia:Nuclear fission|nuclear fission]], and in 1953 conducted the world's first nuclear weapons test, Operation Scharlachrote Morgenröte in the [[Azure Sea]]. In 1961, Ethalria sent the first person to space, Almut Fichtner, aboard Sternfinder-1. Ethalria lost the [[Auroran Imperial War]] in 1975 after surrendering to the destruction of [[Kevatuul (Satellite)|Kevatuul]], a nuclear-armed [[Axdel|Axdelian]] space weapon. The nuclear destruction of five Ethalrian metropolitan areas resulted in the signing of the [[Cynebury Accord]], banning the weaponisation of space. The Grand Matriarchy entered a civil war when the royal family was executed, ending a two thousand year line of monarchs, and split the country into the [[Ethalria (Matriarchy)|Matriarchy]] and the [[Ethalria (Republic)|Republic]] (also known as East Ethalria and West Ethalria). The two Ethalria's were partitioned into six following defeat again in the [[Auroran-Pacific War]]. Vöhmia and Kotheria were among these nations and went on to form North Ethalria in 2021.
