[[Tissandra]] is a country in the middle of [[Yasteria|Yasteria Major]] continent. The area extended from the [[Hikaru's Gulf]], to the West into the Yasterian Range. ToIt borders the north,Caliphate itof borders [[Hama]], andPackilvania to the east lies the huge [[Packilvania]] territories. Though small, itand onceAlva heldto the entirety of Yasteria wastelands and interiorsnorthwest. The core area of Tissandra consisted of two major cities; [[Annuriel]] and [[Eranorth]], with population of around 7238 million people.

The history of Tissandra began with the rise of the [[Hellenistic Civilization]] around 700 bc. The divided tribes united under the [[Eranorth Tribe]] and began the [[Pax Hellenica]] around the year 500 bc. The [[Hellenic Empire]] occupied much of Yasteria Major for 5 century, before the [[Great Revolt]], led by [[Vinitius Clint]] in 1 bc overthrew the despotic hierarchy, and founded the [[Clintinian Republic]]. The Republic downfall in 527 led to the Hundred States era that lasted until 1865, when the [[First Civil War]] ended in a stalemate and divided the realm into the [[East West DividesDivision]] that persisted well into the 20th century. The two state then clashed on the devastating [[Tissandra Second Civil War|Second Civil War]] that broke out in 1914. The unified modern nation today is the result of the [[Angelas Treaty]] signed in 1918 tto end the war.
 
Modern Tissandra is commonly described as decadent and corrupt, although life expectancy and quality of living are high. This attributes are seemingly derived from Native Yasterian who felt the nation occupies their territory unlawfully. This description is also held by the [[Tissandran Liberal Rebels]] which rebelled in 2019, and engulfed the nation into the [[Third Civil War]] that still continue to this day.
 
==Etymology==
The name "Tissandra" first derived from the ancient [[Eranorth Tribe]]. No one actually clearly knows about the real meaning of the name for the Eranorthians. But for the Hellenistic cultures that succeedsucceeded it, the name came from the [[Legend of Hellen]], where supposedly, [[Tissa]], the God of Earth was [[Helen]], Goddess of The Skies's first true love. And so, universally accepted by the Hellenist, that the entirety of Tissandrantheir people arewere the descendants of Tissa and Hellen. The name Tissandra is not commonly used during the Clintinian Era and the Hudred States Era. During the Clintinian Republic, Tissandra was only used by foreigners to refers the people that still worship Hellenic Religion, while most Children of Abraham adherents were called Clintinian, or Abramaic. Internally, everyone called themselves as Clintinian.
 
The Hundred States Era further drains the usage of Tissandra, as during this time, there was a surge of Hellenic converted into the Children of Abraham. Peoples usually atributed themselves into local lordships or regions, and so the name of Tissandra fell in popularity during the early and middle periods of the era. During the rennaisance, prominent philosophers used this name in their works, such as Robert Bertolli's 'People of Tissandra', and Jaem Cato's 'Mighty Swords', both published in 1456. Both books called for national unity, and set trends throughout the region, inciting the ideals of unification.
The first official use of the name came after the [[Tissandra Fisrt Civil War|First Civil War]] where the two halves of the country claimed the name as their own. Today, the name Tissandra is codified in the section 2 paragraph 1 of the [[1918 Constitution of Tissandra|1918 Constitution]] and stands as the official name for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/constitutional_monarchy Constitutional Monarchy].
 
The first official use of the name came before the [[Tissandra Fisrt Civil War|First Civil War]] when the Duke of Eranorth took the title, 'King of Tissandra', which in ancient hellenic means 'Descendants of Tissa'. This act quickly followed by the formation of the Republic of Tissandra. The usage throughout the pre-civil war era, and post-civil war era was used as a propaganda for unionist factions and political parties between the two halves of the nation, hence it quickly gained traction as the most popular way of referring to the entirety of the nation, as early as 1865.
 
==History==
Historical Intellects and scientist agreed that the [[History of Tissandra]] mainly consisted of six stages; [[Tribes of Yasteria|Tribal Era]], HellenisticHellenic Civilization, Clintinian Republic, The Hundred States Period, The East-West Divides, and the contemporary history.
===Pre-Historical Era===
Around 1000 bc, Middle Yasteria was occupied by both Yasterian Natives and Coasts Tribes. The origin of these Coast Tribes are unknown, although there are lot of its remnants around the caves in Packilvania's coasts. The tribes were peacefully coexist, with some evidents showed trading and migration happened between the tribes. Some artefacts from this periods including casted irons and clay potteries were found in Yasteria's interiors, even though these goods were only produced by the coastal tribes. Some remnants of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibex Ibex] bones were also found around a former coastal tribe village near Annuriel, although Ibexs are only found in inner Yasteria, suggesting a burgeoning barter enterprise.
 
The mainland tribes were mostly migrational in nature, although they did setles and cultivate some corps between two to three months. These migrational tribes is thought to came from nearby areas that now consisted of Packilvania, while the coastal tribes were most likely came from further areas, with some suggesting that the coastal tribes were seeafarers from the islands of [[Peregrinia]]. This ideas was put forward firstly by [[Professor Natalie Watcher]] from the University of Anuriel. She pointed at the mainly maritime culture of the coastal tribes, and the different physical appearance they have with the mainland tribes. However, another theory persisted, mainly among the supporters of the Union of Tissandra, that both tribes were descended from the same mainland tribes of Yasteria.
The tribes was peacefully living together. Some evident showed that Native Yasterian received Iron pots and potteries from the Coast Tribes. Some remnants of Ibex bones was found around a former Coast Tribe villages near Annuriel, although Ibexs are only found Around inner Yasterian, suggesting that trading was flourishing at that time.
 
The tribes lived in the area for roughly 10,000 years as neolithic farmers, or as hunter gatherers for the mainland tribes. The coastal tribes built many villages and evidently, a complex of structures that resembles a city just outside Creçore, the [[Anerimian Structures]] which dated back to 2,000bc. These were mainly agricultural and fishing communities, with rarely any distinction between one tribe and another. Apart from casted irons and clay potteries, many lapis lazuli jewelry were found especially around Anuriel. Gold was rarely found from this era, as the coast of Tissandra lacks precious ore. Gold was more prevalent among the artefacts of the mainland tribes, as their homeland was close to the gold ore concentrations along the Yasterian Range. Gold artefacts found in coastal areas further proves that both tribes did had a flourishing trade. Evidently, the coastal tribes were much more advanced than the mainlanders, and so they were the ones who developed sophistication in information exchanges that culminated into early [[Old Hellenic]] writing. The earliest Old Hellenic writing was found on the [[Alita tablet]] which was placed on the side of a huge monolithic tablet erected in Eranorth, called the [[King's Finger]].
Around 800 bc, a Coast Tribe called the [[Ærath]] moved near [[Lake Tiberion]]. The exact date were unknown, but according to [[Aelita Tablet]] [[King Æthélfled]] was the one who led his tribe to conquer most of inner Yasterian, and subjugated most of Yasterian Natives.
 
The founding date of Eranorth seems correlates with Æthélfled's conquest, of around 800 bc. Æthélfled died on Yasterian Range when he led his tribal men across during a hurricane. Legend often stated that the hurricane was unnatural, and was started by Æthélfled's brother, [[Æron]]. The conquest was continued under Æron, until he was deposed by Æthélfled's heir, [[Queen Eleana|Eleana]].
 
It was under Eleana, when the first [[Hellenic Temple]] was founded in Creçoré.
 
===Hellenic Era===
The Alita Tablet was made by a migrating coastal people called the Erathi around 800bc. The reason for this migration is unknown, but the migration seems coincided with the founding of Eranorth. The tablet described a semi mythical king, [[Æthélfled]], as the one who led these people to migrates inward. The tablet said that Æthélfled was the son of Alty, who was herself a great grandson of [[Tissa]], the Goddes of The Earth and [[Hellen]], the God of The Sky. This claims proves that the Hellenic Religion was already widely spread, particularly among the coastal people. The tablet then described that Æthélfled died on the Yasterian Range when he led his men across during a hurricane. A folklore developed from this story, that often said that the hurricane was unnatural, and was started by Æthélfled's brother, [[Æron]]. Æron continued his brother's conquest, acording to the tablet, and managed to subjugates a huge area surrounding the city of Eranorth. His conquest was cut short by Æthélfled's heir, [[Queen Eleana|Eleana]], who deposed and hung him for treason around 700bc. [[File:Eleana Æçara.jpeg|thumb|Eleana and her husband, Huron|alt=|left|129x129px]]During the reign of Eleana, she formulated the first codified law inside Tissandra, the so called [[Codex Maxima]] (The Final Verdict). She dubbed herself the first [[Shallah]] (parent) of the Hellenic followers. During this time, the sun dial was also invented, and calculation of dates and times began, even though in a very simplistic way, formulating into [[Hellenic Calendar]] that was personaly aproved by Eleana. Archeology evidents showed that the first intentional road building project was carried in Eranorth, during Eleana's reign, becoming the first public work project ever be carried out in Tissandra's history. The Codex Maxima was found right behind the Alita Tablet, on the other side of the King's Finger. The Codex surprisingly filled with ideas that can be considered revolutionary for the time. It divided the administration into executives, legislatives, and an independent judiciary branch, suggesting that political philosophy was thriving at the time. It also stated the main rights and responsibility of the people, and a tax system even though not as advanced as the later stages of the civilization. The third side of the King's Finger, showed not an atached tablet, but a writing directly carved into the monolith structure. This side is called the Hero's side, as it listed battle victories and the commanders that led Hellenic mens in these victories. The list provided a great timeline for the expansion of the Hellenic Civilization, and also proves that most of the Hellenic expansions were carried out during Eleana's reign.
[[File:Eleana Æçara.jpeg|thumb|Eleana and her husband, Huron|alt=|left|135x135px]]Eleana [[Æçara]] became the first [[Shallah]] of the Hellenic Civilization on 24th of August 624 bc, and gone to rule almost for 72 years. During her reign, Hellenist began to preached across Yasteria, while roads are built to connect the major villages and tribes of Yasteria Major.
 
According to a clay tablet found in Anuriel, the Tablet of The Kings, Eleana's five direct descendants were known as the [[Philosopher Shallas|Phillosopher Shallas]]. The tablet described these five kings as benevolent and intelligent rulers that bring about a golden age in the civilization. The tablet listed King Araman, King Dunain, King Athura, King Conquitara, and King Bastierra as the philosopher kings. The philosopher kings ruled for almost 400 years. The Hero's side is still listing victories during the time of the philosopher kings, but the numbers isn't as many and the battle results aren't as glorious as the time during the reign of Eleana. The Hero's side listed that around 400bc, King [[Æthura]] led the Hellenic once more across the Yasterian Range, and managed to surpass the deadly passes. He would gone to conquer most of the tribes west of the ranges. He and then his son, King [[Conquitara]] moved eastward and won another victory against the mainland tribes. Finaly, around 300bc, King [[Bastierra]] won a final victory against the mainland tribe of Seducca possibly in an area that is now a part of Alva. [[File:Marcus Aurelius Denarius2.jpg|thumb|[[Bastierra]] in a Hellenica Coin. |alt=|130x130px|left]]The reign of King [[Bastierra]] is the most well documented of all of the philosopher kings, and even of Eleana's own reign. The main chronicler of Bastierra's reign was a mainland confidant of the King, [[Athura the Red Faced]], and the political philosopher [[Andryth of Anuriel]]. Both chronicler agreed that Bastierra's reign was a kind of a golden age for the Hellenic Civilization. For 300 years now, the Hellenic people had been transforming from a despotical tribesmen into a bureaucratic empire. Athura wrote in his chronicle that Bastierra was fond of building grand buildings. Athura was present when Bastierra ceremoniously blessed the Grand Acqueduct. The biggest project Bastierra carried out was the founding of a brand new city as his summer capital in the southern part of the realm. The city was named Alclairçreoe (the white marble), but the name now changed into a more comprehendable name of Creçore (the marble) referring to the many white marbles used during the construction. Andryth was somewath more critical to the construction of the city. as he stated in his book 'Enlightened Kings' that the projects was an example of an un-enlightened king, as it drains taxes of the people. However, the city center was finished around 250bc, and Athura said that the king was 'fast to move in' to the new city. Historian agreed that the project did cost a lot of money, and evident showed a decrease in numbers of trade activity throughout the civilization's territory. Around this time, Bastierra also christened some terms for the political system of the civilization. Although elected counselors and advisors already existed during Eleana's and her descendants' reigns, the terms [[Senate of the Shallah|Sænatu Princapa]] (Senate of The People) and [[Congress of the Shallah|Aconguiles Princapa]] (Congress of The People) was only conceived during Bastierra's reign. The right and responsibility, as well as the elections of these legislature bodies were prescribed inside the Terminal Corata (Testament of Conduct), Bastierra's own version of Codex Maxima. But the king was still a very powerful position, as the Terminal Corata stated that the king can 'dismiss everyone' he found unsuitable, although laws and taxes was still the dominion of the legislature.
Eleana's direct five descendants was acknowledged as the [[Philosopher Shallas|Phillosopher Shallas]], whom ruled over the realm for almost 400 years. Under their leadership, Hellenist occupied much of Yasteria. Their times were colloquially known as the First Golden Ages. Wealth did accumulate on this era, and the borders of the realm became opened, allowing ideas and trades to flourish inside the realm. Some historians argues that the all of the prosperities of these times as mainly attributed to the strong but wise hands of the Philosopher Shallas, and the sophisticated bureaucratic state of the Hellenic people. Others suggested that the long ages of the Philosopher Shallas was the main reason, as it contains resentment and prevents political upheaval inside the realm to happens. Either way, the Hellenic Civilization made its greatest success and impact in this era.
 
====The Golden DaysDæstan Dynasty====▼
Around 446 bc, [[Æthura]] led the Hellenist once more across the Yasteria Range, and managed to surpass the deadly passes. He would gone to conquer most of the tribes west of the ranges. He and his son, [[Conquitara]] moves eastward and won another victory against the interior tribesmen. Then, in 314 bc, [[Bastierra]] build the [[Grand Acqueducts]], series of [[Acqueducts]] and [[irrigation]] across core lands of the Hellenist.
[[File:Rm Fr.jpg|thumb|[[Carniol]], a giant forum in Creçoré where Senators and Congressman confide. |252x252px]]After the death of Bastierra around 200bc, Eleana's line ended as Bastierra didn't marry and he was the only son of King Conquitara. The descendants of Dæstan, the second son of King Dunain, claimed the throne and the Senate did approve the claim. But the descendants of Arima, the daughter of King Araman contested the claim, and present their own family as the rightful ruler. The Senate and Congress of the realm quickly divided into factions, supporting either the Dæstan or the Arima. The division was followed by a succession war that was estimated to last for at least three years. The sources were unclear about the times of this conflict, but Athura's chronicle did said about the war lasting for a 'brief long time'. The war ended after Carmac Dæstan captured Creçore and most of the members of the Amira dynasty. The Amiras were repotedly exiled into the interior, culminating in today's urban myth of a rightful Amira King still living in the western areas of Tissandra. After the war, Carmac moved the capital back to Eranorth.
 
Chronicler and writers of the Dæstan era didn't viewed the era as a golden age anymore. Andryth of Anuriel's disciple, Conga Leslie, writes some critical judgment against the Dæstan, spesificaly toward King Carmac for his 'brutal' war and a punitive tax law that Carmac raised during his reign. Reportedly, the King now set his own tax system, and dismissed the Senate and Congress as an advisory body. However the conditions were improving after Carmac's death, and his brother, Galantir, took the throne. Galantir returned the original rights of the legislature, and restarted the military expansion of the realm to subjugated the interior tribes that seceded during the succession war.
▲====The Golden Days ====
[[File:Marcus Aurelius Denarius2.jpg|thumb|[[Bastierra]] in a Hellenica Coin. |alt=|130x130px|left]]In [[Bastierra]]'s time, the Hellenist had transformed from a tribal despotism, into a bureaucratic empire. The nation now had an established political bodies. Life became more complicated, as social norms and national laws were flourishing. The realm expands and stabilized its borders, ensuring a long time of peace and prosperity.
 
During the expedition eastward around 100bc, [[Galantir Dæstan]] died. His son, [[Ærica]] was reportedly still 7 year old when the tragic death occured. Acording to Conga's chronicle, the elites inside the Senate quickly took over the King's responsibility and set up an interegnum administration, even though Bastierra's Terminal Corata stated that a king can be of any age. The senate reimplemented Carmac's punitive tax system for their own benefit, and began the time that according to Conga's chronicle as the Time of Troubles.
Although elected counselors and advisors already existed during Eleana's rules, the embodiment of the [[Senate of the Shallah|Senate]] and [[Congress of the Shallah|Congress]] of the Shallah are ratified inside Æthura's [[Book of The Century]]. The Senate was a freely elected body of 300 people. Though everyone principally can be a Senator, only the rich are able to fund campaigns ([[Prætoras]]) across the nation. The Congress on the other hand, was elected by the Senate. Both Congress and Senate serve for a 6 years term and can be reelected multiple times. The realm also owned national institutions, with its own branches regionally. The two institutions that were the main procurers of the government are the [[Magisterone]] and [[Milatireire]].
 
====The DæstanChildren of Abraham====
[[File:Stepan Blois.jpg|thumb|Ærica's fresco, inside the [[Temple for Caron]] |230x230px|alt=|left]]In the year 50bc, for the first time in Tissandra's history, a monotheistic believe was practiced. The new faith began to spread in Creçore and its surrounding. Some historian still argues about the real events surrounding the spread of this new faith, but its generally agreed that it was brought by [[Abraham]] son of [[Lucca]]. Abraham began his preaching after he was reportedly strangled by a demon on his way home. He was said to be acquited by an angle, and then was brought into the throne of the One God, and christened as an emissary and a father figure for the people. Soon enough many Hellenic believers converts to Abraham's religion and called themselves the [[Children of Abraham]]. Abraham preaches about peace and caring, and most importantly equality were very popular among the people, and he garnered the name The Resolver. His preaches were written into the [[Book of Essence]], and were quickly spreads throughout the realm. Abraham garnered reputation and quickly became and influential figure. This however made him a lot of enemies, especially among the Hellenic Priest who called him 'Tissa's own temptation to test mankind's resolve'. The political figures were not impressed as well, especially with Abraham's preaches about equality.
[[File:Rm Fr.jpg|thumb|[[Carniol]], a giant forum in Creçoré where Senators and Congressman confide. |252x252px]]After the death of Bastierra on 292 bc, Eleana's line ended. [[The Succescion Wars]] that followed his death rampage the country for three years, until [[Carmac]] [[Dæstan]] won the siege of [[Creçoré]]. He was crowned Shallah in Eranorth, as the [[Emerald Palace]] in Creçoré has been destroyed during the brutal siege.
 
It was told that Abraham moved from Creçore to Eranorth onin the year 62 bc42bc. He met with Ærica, and began to teach the young King his teaching. This act was received by the Senate as a brainwashing attempt against the young king. They opposed Abraham's relationship with the king, and even terrorize Abraham in the streets. The most notorious senator at that time, [[Duræni]] 'The Bloated' reportedly began to deliver somespread lies and accusations against Abraham, finalizing inforcing the Senate to order Abraham's orderimprisonment. toDuræni catchwas dubbed 'Satan's representative' by the Children of Abraham himadherents. The Senate sent the city bailiffs to arrest himAbraham in Eranorth's market on the 7th of Jani (now 6th of July), but unbeknownstunknown to them, Abraham was with Ærica at that time. TheAccording to the [[Stories of Abraham]], the bailiffs, possibly didn't know that the youyoung disciple of Abraham was the king himself, knocked out the young man with a club, and arrested Abraham before setting his home ablaze. Its possible that this act was the mortal blow to the king, as he died just a week later.▼
The reign of the Dæstans were filled with hardship, as [[Common Taxes]] was implemented to quickly rebuilt the burgeoning realm. But conquest continues, and during these times, Annuriel was founded. With the sovereign gone out on expeditions, there are no oversight for the collection of the Common [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/tax Taxes]. Soon, corruption ensues.
 
The Stories of Abraham stated that the Senate blamed the king's death to Abraham, and ordered him to be hanged During the execution process, he reveals his final revelation now called [[The Prophecy of Angelas]] stating his forgiveness to anyone wrongly accusing him, and that ordering his 'childrens' to spread his words with love and care to save the world from void of hatred and anger. The executioner hanged him right after his revelation finished. Abraham's execution clearly proved the Senate's corruption and scheming, and resulted into an open strive and military conflicts throughout the next half of the century, usually dubbed The Kinstrive.
During the expedition eastward in 75 bc, [[Galantir Dæstan]] died. His son, [[Ærica]] was still 7 year old. Although the law explicitly said that a Shallah can be of any age, the Senate overulled it, and set up an [[Interregnum]] for Ærica. The times was often described in historical texts as a the Times of Troubles. Rich Senators often accept bribes or easement to disrupt the bureaucratic processes of the realm.
 
Taxes were levied twice as many as during the time of Galantir. This caused poverty soar, and the bureaucratic offices to be burdened. As such, the realm expansion halted; though its just reached its peak size.
 
====The Prophecy of Angelas====
[[File:Stepan Blois.jpg|thumb|Ærica's fresco, inside the [[Temple for Caron]] |230x230px|alt=|left]]Arround 64 bc, a new faith began to be established surrounding Creçore. Some historian argues about the truth behind the exhibition and expansion of this new faith, but its generally agreed that it was brought by [[Abraham]] son of [[Lucca]]. Abraham began his preaching around that year, and soon enough there were huge number of masses hearing him. Most people argues that Abraham's doctrine of sharing and equalities were very popular among the growing masses of poor across the country. And it is also agreed that Abraham's popularity derived the corrupt senators to act against him.
 
▲It was told that Abraham moved from Creçore to Eranorth on the year 62 bc. He met with Ærica, and began to teach the young King his teaching. The most notorious senator at that time, [[Duræni]] 'The Bloated' reportedly began to deliver some lies and accusations against Abraham, finalizing in the Senate's order to catch him. The Senate sent the city bailiffs to arrest him in Eranorth's market, but unbeknownst to them, Abraham was with Ærica at that time. The bailiffs, possibly didn't know that the you disciple of Abraham was the king himself, knocked out the young man with a club, and arrested Abraham. Its possible that this act was the mortal blow to the king, as he died just a week later.
 
The Senate ordered Abraham to be hanged, but during the execution process, he made a great speech called [[The Prophecy of Angelas]] (possibly referring to the [[Temple of Angelas]] near his execution ground). The executioner hanged him just right after his speech finished. The crowd suddenly lifted in uproar, and Eranorth was engulfed in rebellion for the entire year of 61 bc. The rebellion soon retreated outside the city, and began [[The Kinstrive]]. In the end of the year, the senators fled the city to Anuriel and called for mobilization.
 
==== The Kinstrive====
[[The Kinstrive]] was a series of peasant and religious dissent that followed the execution of Abraham son of Lucca onthat 61happened bc,from all41 the waybc to 15 acbc.

Historians agreed that the advent of The Kinstrive did a lot to change the Hellenistic beliefs of the realm into the monotheistic [[Childrens of Abraham]]. The former disciples of Abraham spreads quickly into the realm's periphery to spread this faith. Even though it has a lasting effects, the chronology of the strives itself was not properly documented, and there are generally less historical evidence from this period, possibly due to the strives itself.
 
The natural philosopher, [[Eldric the Wise]] who lives through the time of the strive moved to live with the peaceful mainland tribes and gains most of his accounts of the strive from traveling merchants. His accounts aren't complete, but they are the only reliable sources for a definitive explanation of the Kinstrive. Eldric said that there were always mob fires in Eranorth and Creçore, suggesting protest against the senate. He also noted a large number of senator resigned fromtheir post and led new factions agaisnt the corrupt senators. The Congress is weirdly didn't showed up in any of Eldric's account, suggesting that the body was abolished. He also noted that foreign merchants stayed away from the realm's port 'waiting the fires to be putted out'. Eldric didn't went back to hos home in Anuriel until well after the Siege of Creçore.
The Kinstrive ended when The Great Revolt broke out across the nation, led by a former General, [[Vinitius Clint]] in 5 bc.
====The Great Revolt====
[[File:Vinitius Clint.jpg|thumb|236x236px|[[Vinitius Clint]]'s statue in [[Creçore]].]]The unstable times of the strives, and the amassing of powers on the hands of the senators led into growing dissatisfaction among the people. There were growing inequality between the elites and the commoner, as trades and commerce bean to halt. Around this6bc time,a theformer eponymousgeneral semi-mythical general,named [[Vinitius Clint]] led his [[Bands of Traitors]] into the first act of open rebellion against the senators. Clint led his bands into a series of successful raids against senatorialrich possessioncorrupt during the strivesproperties, until the people of Creçoré requested him to protect their city from tax collectors whom by the time organized into armed divisions. The refusal of Creçoré to give their annual taxes was followed by an entire army marching toward the city aroundon 4th of Anery (3rd of April) 5 bc. Clint and his men rallied the population of the city, and manageddefended tothe defend itcity for five days before evacuating the entire cityrebels into the countryside.
 
The [[Siege of Creçore]] marks the beginning of the Great Revolt. Clint then started an extensive guerilla wars and skirmishes. The former militants of the strives joined his growing army, and on around 4 bc4bc, Clint already in possession of 20,000 men. The senate declared Clint as an outlaw inside the National Order Decree of Jani, and that anyone following him will be regarded as traitors,. butBut reportedly there were some senators that were givingemphatetic supportto Clint's cause and went as far as to give monetary aids for Clint's army,. theThese sosenators calledwere dubbed the [[Golden Sphere]] senators and became the primary opposition againts the status quo. Mny of these senators resigned and joined Clint's army as commanders, while some stayed to disrupt and delay the senate's campaign against Clint. One of them, [[Jacques Marie le-Brun]], openlyresigned opposedafter thean senateopen afterspeech Clint'sthat victoryrevealed atmany corruption scandals among the [[Battlesenator, ofand Anuriel]]quickly vanished after the speech.

The 3bc saw the peoplesenators losing grips over the situation. One senator, Alflan, was found dead inside the hall of Anuriel's supportCarniol, forresulting into a Republicmass hysteria among the senators.
 
Vinitius Clint's campaigns culminated into the [[Battle of Anuriel]], andon the subsequent3rd [[Siegeof Denii (2nd of Anuriel]].February) During2bc, in which his army won a descisive victory, routing the twentyentire daysarmy of the siege,realm. The battle subsequently followed by the Siege of Anuriel that lasted for twenty days. The senators continuescontinued to debate on what action should be taken throughout the siege. On the twenty firstninetieth day of the siege, the [[Fire of the Carniol of Anuriel|Carniol of Anuriel]] was on fire and immediately destroyed by the flames. The senate withhold anymore meetings, and on the thirtiethnext day of the siege, they surrenderssurrendered.
 
===Clintinian Republic Era===
After the fall of the Hellenic Realm, Vinitius Clint and the former senators who were part of the [[Golden Sphere]] formed the Clintinian Republic. The Republic was modeled after the Hellenic Empire, but with some reforms, codified into the historic [[Anuriel Testament]]. The Golden Sphere quickly formed the new [[Congress of The Republic]], and drawn up constituenciesnew acrosslaws theand realmedicts, while Vinitius Clint was appointed as its first Consul. One of the Congress' first legislation was to extend Clint's terms to unspecified amount of time, making Clint consul for live. ButDuring his reign, Clint didn't liveparticipate prettyto much in governance and politics. The only major reform that he passes through was a new calendar system based on the movement of the sun that had been proposed to him by Augusta Summer, an astronomist from Candira.The new callender is now called the Clintinian Calendar and started the counting of years from 1ac (after clint). Clint didn't live long after the Republic was founded. He died on 12 ac, and the Congress reconstituted terms limit for Consulate after that. After Clint's death, the Republic began the annual celebration of the Siege of Creçore, on the 27th of March. This celebration persisted to this day, as the [[DemocracyVictory Day]].

The Republic era showed little to no military expansion of borders whatsoever. The Republic seemingly prefers for an isolationist view in diplomatic terms; The Republic released all vassal states of the former Hellenic Empire and all of the subjugated mainland tribes, leaving it with only half of the Empire's territory. The main endeavor of The Republic was trade, as there were many legislation surrounding trades and wealth management during the duration of The Republic. During the early part of The Republic (before 250 ac), many public works and infrastructures were initiated, resulting in the irrigation system for the once barren Yasterian Range and the western plains. Coastal cities grows in prominence too and many grand public work were achieved in the cities, such as the construction of the [[Great Port of Anuriel]]. The next phase of The Republic (250 ac - 526 ac) saw the realm began to sent trade expeditions across [[Urth]]. These trade expeditions open The Republic's market to other nations, mainly with the coastal cities that is now [[Packilvania]], and the lands that now constituted [[Peregrinia]]. Around 300 ac, the [[Great Road]] between Eranorth and Anuriel was built, around the same time with the [[Giant Acqueducts|Giant Aqueducts]] (prolonged version of Bastierra's Grand Acqueducts) spanning through the nation. This huge endeavor was done with labor forces so large, that the realm gone into budgetary deficit for the first time. The deficit initiated the founding of the first bank of The Republic, [[The Merchant's Guild Bank]]. The Bank began to exerts certain influence over The Republic, but mostly beneficial in nature, even though it clearly show the lack of transparency and accountability of The Republic's bureaucrats.

The Republic enters a period of stagnation around 400 ac, resulting in a bloated bureaucracy, and more red tapes. The main contributor of this stagnation was the unreformed [[Constitution of The Republic]], which in turn made the nation helpless to made any innovation or efficiency on its bureaucrats. The bodies of The Republic increased in size, making decisions harder to formulate. This all happens all the while the Congress and the Consulate continues to debate over jurisdiction and responsibilities. These factors ultimately culminates into the [[492 Election]], on which the nation are splitted into right and left politics. The heated political situation of the year 492 and 493 was further abated by [[Consul Hannah Marigold]] and the left's constant attacks to the Congress in general, and to the right in particular. The debates increase the national militancy, and upheavals began to soar in number. Around the year 500, new Monarchist ideas began to emerge, preferring a strong hereditary ruler over a republic of red tapes. The idea gain tractions predominantly in the east side of the nations, around the city of Eranorth. The ideas was fiercely debated by the left, and [[Consul Adrian Malachus]] began to prosecute anyone with such idea.
