Line 187:
Most of Tretridian West Novaris had been lost in the war, as the collapse of authority in Cynebury caused no amount of troubles for the colonies. It was only a matter of time before [[Asendavia]] and [[Norgsveldet]] seized most of Tretrid's colonial holdings. Only [[Tretridian Nordenpunto|Nordenpunto]] was left.

In 1765, King Gustaf II of [[Norgsveldet]] declared himself the Saint of Asatru, declaring himself the head of [[Asatru]] over the traditional Asatruar leader, the High Gothir. The following religious schism would split the religion into two denominations: Gustafic Asatru, which recognized Gustaf II as the Saint of Asatru; and Gothiric Asatru, which continued to recognize the Gothirs as the religious authority.

===Decolonization===
The Great War caused a great deal of unrest in Tretrid, to the point that Tretrid was affected by a communist uprising in the early 1920s. To focus on putting down the uprising, Tretrid was forced to give more autonomy to [[Tretridian Nordenpunto|Nordenpunto]] and [[Transnalpia]], and even outright abandoned [[Tretridian Southwest Gondwana]].
The decolonization of Tretridian Southwest Gondwana has been panned by historians as rushed and careless, as Tretrid's abandonment of the colony was done without any care as to the future of the colony. The region quickly split into smaller states constantly warring with each other.
Nordenpunto and Transnalpia were fortunate by comparison. They were still left as part of the Tretridian crown, but were given a great deal of autonomy to deal with their own domestic affairs.
The increased autonomy in the colonies bolstered independence movements, and calls to make Nordenpunto fully independent from Tretrid slowly grew. As a result, a referendum was held in 1980, and Nordenpuntans voted to become independent from Tretrid. Talks ensued, and the request for Nordenpuntan independence was granted in March of 1981.
