Formerly known as Jarldom of Ymirland, it changed governments due to the [[Ymirland Civil War]] and intense civil strife before the war (2018-2020). When the previous monarch Otto Tolvstat died in 2016, causing a succession crisis between his twin children Elin and Sindre who ran campaigns to gather populator support. The campaigns rapidly turned violent, despite the children repeated attempts including outright disbanding the military save a few divisions for the border. The drastic action resulted in terrorism from groups hosted in [[Jarisven]] attacking villages and towns along the border. [[South Hills]] backing Sindre and the [[Federation of the Southern Coast|Federation]] backing the Elin. The war ending in 2020, after [[South Hills]] pulled out of the war leaving South Ymirland without major military backing and resulting the North Ymirland quickly sweeping through the southern regions.
 
Demographically it is a Norgsveltian elves and Kemonomimi. With a heavy religious divide between [[Akuanism]] and [[Ulvriktru]] split down 54% to 41% with only 1% not in either religious. Economically, it is considered to be developing nation and founding member of the [[Red Crown Economic Union]]. The currency [[Red Krone]] as been the official currency since the [[Ymirland Civil War]] for North Ymirland, though there has been heavy issues with interrogating the south into the currency. The largest economic sectors are mining, agriculture and a growing industrial base exceptionally in household electricians. The largest trading partners being the [[Federation of the Southern Coast]], [[Norgsveldet]] and [[Kaldrbuth]].
The kemonomimi arrived in the territory of present-day Ymirland in the early neolithic period. Within the fifth and sixth centruies, the varies communities of kemonomimi gathered together to from a confederation of Ny‘Andrestopp and serviced as a trading point in the [[Rotantic Ocean]]. The primary servicing as a small economic power in the medieval period along its coastal cities while the inner lands was mostly empty from civilization due to poor farmland quality.
 
There has been several attempts by early Ulvikrik war hosts to conquer the peninsula with the notable and largest attempt in the 900s by the Fuglestad war host. Which dramatically failed and resulted in nearly the whole war host destruction.
 
== History ==
''Main article for Pre-Norgsveltian Ymirland: [[Ny‘Andrestopp]]; For [[Ymir History]]''
 
=== Pre-HistoryNorgsveltian Ymirland ===
Pre-Norgsveltian Colonization, Ymirland was a providence of [[Ny‘Andrestopp]] a large [[Akuanism|Akuan]] confederation. The Confederation was a critical part of the [[Rotantic Ocean]] trade network due to its wide and varied natural resources. Ymirland providence itself, held the capital of the confederation as well several other regions. It was the center for mineral wealth of the region, and the de-facto education center for the confederation. Being the center of bureaucracy, and as being the origin of [[Akuan Democracy]].
Ymirland was originally settled by Kemonomimi explorers from the Infinite Loop in the early neolithic period. Serving as an important stop for future expeditions before leaving Novaris proper. The development of Iron and later development of prehistory technologies led to a small growth of cities on the interior of the peninsula. Due to the poor soil quality and swamps, the farming of these lands wasn’t ever truly possible until Borean wheat was brought over. Resulting the Ymirs have the primary focus of fishing and trading as a food source for the inhabited region. The discovery of copper deposits led to a growth of trade in the city states and led to the formation of a confederation of Ny‘Andrestopp.
 
=== 900 Defense against Viking war host ===
The 900s brought a massive fleet of Viking longships seeking to invade the Confederation and curve a kingdom from its remnants. The Viking war host was led by Børre Fuglestad, the third eldest son of Anton Fuglestad of Hirdvik.
 
The viking fleet swept across the sea channels, pushing deeply into the capital of the Confederation. As a result, a prompt militia was formed to fight against the warhost as well as a clan of Ny'Sænuri. While the militia efforts were notable, however fighting was mostly taking place between the Ny'Sænuri and the Vikings.
 
The clan dragged the vikings further inland away from their ship, while the militia burned the longships. The Ny'Sænuri and the vikings fought for several months in the wilderness, the clan of Ny'Sænuri slowly picking numbers off from the viking. While the clan had bigger numbers than the viking warhost, the clan kept with its safe tactics to minimize deaths and to make an example of the vikings. Wanting to only leave a handful of survivors to send the message back to the other vikings who might come.
 
Vikings finally gave in after the 8th month being trapped in the wilderness. Cold, starving, Børre opened negotiations with the clan. The Clan, of course, removed his Børre head which is currently resting in the Ymir’s People History Museum on the current day. The Ny'Sænuri gave the leftover vikings a ship and told them to spread the story of what happened. Giving them the headless body of Børre by tying it to the mast of the ship.
 
For the people of Ny‘Andrestopp was actions the Ny'Sænuri taken was considered to be extreme in nature. Wanting them only to fight them and not brutalize the vikings invaders. As a result, they requested the Ny'Sænuri clan to disband. To which the Ny'Sænuri clan refused to do so. Creating awkward state of affairs between the confederation and the native
 
==== 900 Defense against Viking war host ====
=== 1500s Early Norgsveltian influence ===
The first attempts to conquer direct region was conducted was in the early 900s was by [[Ulvriktru|Vikings]]. The warband was led by Børre Fuglestad, the third eldest son of Anton Fuglestad of Hirdvik. The warband was met with failure after initial successes, being encircled and flanked by Ny'Sænuri clans. Resulting in the viking fleet being burned as it was captured by the Ny'Sænuri. Vikings stopped their attempts to raid and siege the settlements of the Confederation. Placing it's focus on killing the Ny'Sænuri as revenge for their fleet being burned. The Ny'Sænuri clans forced the vikings into the wilderness, as well prevent large scale direct fighting. Rather the clans was focused on slowly picking them off, preventing escape and allowing the harsh elements of the wild kill majority of the war band.
By the mid 1500s Norgsveltian merchants and tradesmen from the Kingdom of Novreheim set several trading ports in Northern parts of Ymirland. Attempts to convert the natives to Asatru was done, but other than influencing culture in lingual practices, it had little success converting them. A cultural merger of Akuanism and Norgsveltian Asatru happened in the largest town of modern day Kyinster.
 
After the eighth month of being trapped in the wilderness, Fulgestad attempted to sue for peace. The clan terms was to remove the head of Fulgestad, but allow the survivors of the band to return home back to [[Eyjaria]] with the headless body. Due to the extreme nature, in the view of the Confederation's leadership council. The council attempt to curve influence by the clans, and demanding several clan heads to retire. Ny'Sænuri refused to accept their terms. Resulting in mistrust on both sides between the clans and the government of Ny'Andrestopp.
Norgsveltian trading ports became a source of large financial growth, and trade for not just Norgsveltians but also other traders in the region. Acting as a resupply point for many traders heading to western Novaris and back. As such a small Norgsveltian fleet was established on the port to fight against pirates in the region that’s affecting trade in the region.
 
==== 17811500s Early Norgsveltian colonization, renaming of the peninsula to YmirlandInfluence ====
Earliest existence of [[Norgsveldet|Norgsveltian]] influence, was by merchants from the Kingdom of Novreheim. Originally the Concordian influence was limited to the capital and kept within [[Ulvriktru]] quarter. Modern day capital of Kyinster, was originally settled by Novreheim merchants that ignored the [[Ulvriktru]] quarter mandate. The response to the refusal to maintain in the quarter resulted in the Confederation pushing a embargo of trade of the settlement and quarter. However the Confederation was in a upheaval on trying to find a more permanent solution, the Ny'Sænuri clans proposed to eliminate the illegal settlement all together before more [[Ulvriktru]] settlers arrived.
During Wars of Asatru religion the Norgsveltian king Gustaf II sent its military to secure the trading ports in Ymirland, and created the Crown Colony of Ymirland, under the colonial governance of Ivar Tolvstat, a elven Norgsveltian noble which had connectections with native elite and Norgsveltian merchants. By 1790 Norgsveldet had taken over all of modern Ymirland, and became crucial to competing with Morstaybishlia for influence in the region.
 
The council of [[Ny‘Andrestopp]] refused Ny'Sænuri suggestions, rather came to accords by establishing the illegal settlement as a province with voting rights within the lower house. Viewing it better to guide and work alongside the potential beneficial but threatening Norveheim. While viewing them with distrust, it was reasoned by the council that its better to make new friends than enemies. The settlement was legitimatized and later serviced for Norgsveltian justification for conquering the confederation 1781.
The colonization efforts were fought back by protests and by Ny'Sænuri by more violent measures when forced religious policies started to be implemented. Which was met with overwhelming violence from both sides.
 
==== 1781 Norgsveltian colonization, renaming of the peninsula to Ymirland ====
1792 Religious policies and development in Ymirland
After the [[Sauvageon Wars]] but during the [[Wars of Ulvriktru]], Lapérousian-Norgsveltian King Gustaf II sent a strong military force to protect the [[Ulvriktru]] minorities in the confederation. The king placed the governance of the newly acquired land under Ivar Tolvstat a Elven noble who lived in Kyivnster but was well respected by the greater nation for his neutrally and even-handedness. As well being a [[Akuanism|Akuanist]] himself. Though in practice, foreign nobility imported from [[Norgsveldet]] held majority of the control.
 
The colonization by Norgsveltians was the most brutalized of the colonial conquests by the [[Norgsveldet|Norgsveltian-Lapérousian]] Realm, land seizures, death penalty for minor offenses towards Akuanists and wide-spread use of slave labor was common. Ny'Sænuri decided to withdraw from Ymirland to [[Kuovälsna]], unable to match the personal union's raw manpower and strength.
Under Ivar Tolvstat far further attempts in converting the natives into Asatru, by far more forceful means than before. Being held at gunpoint (metaphorically but also literally at times) many Akuanists did officially convert but most practiced Akuanism in private. The Norgsveltian Crown built large infrastructure projects in the country with many Norgsveltian settlers moving into the land, many being elven nobles. By the 1850s Ivar Tolvstat ended the religious policy of Ymirland at the request of King Varg III. Allowing Akuanist religion to flourish to the fullest with even some Norgsveltian settler communities on Ymirland converting to Akuanism.
 
=== 1914 [[Akuan Atrocities]] and Independence ===
When the forced religious policies ended, so did the violence from the Ny'Sænuri clans. Who withdrew back into their wilderness fortresses. The blend of the two religions was quite common even in other colonies. Meaning Ymirland was not the outliner when it came to the Akuanism-Asatru relations, in most cases the religions often cohabited the same spaces.
[[Norgsveldet]] entry into the [[Great War]], result in massive protests, boycotts and civil disobedience from the [[Akuanism|Akuan]] population across the Norgsveltian Empire. Ymirland suffered the worst from the [[Akuan Atrocities]], millions died in the labor camps from mistreatment, starvation, disease and executions. Later in 1920, [[Norgsveldet]] gave Crown State status to Ymirland, thus on track for independence but due to the struggles of finding administrators that survive the atrocities and dealing with [[Ulvriktrian Flight]]. It took until 1950 when independence was declared, not by request of Ymirland but rather a sudden shock from Norgsveldet decision causing massive confusion and a hastily written constitution. Ymirland attempted to join the [[North Concordian Economic Forum]] in the 90s but was refused by the council. In addition to the troubles, throughout the decades terrorism from [[Hustreache]] and [[Jarisven]] sometimes referred to as the [[Novaris Icy Conflict]].
 
==== 1914 Protests against the Great War,1920 Crown State status and Independence ====
After the [[Akuan Atrocities]], [[Norgsveldet]], gave further autonomy to Ymirland making them into a Crown State as a provisional government is formed. Due to the mass death, Ymir people struggled to find survivors with training and skill for administration duties. These issues only amplified as [[Ulvriktrian Flight]], huge amounts of wealth from Norgsveltian settlers and business fled out of the country.
Norgsveldet entry into the great war brought troubles to Ymirland. Waves of anti-war protests took hold of the country, waving banners to leave the war that they believed Norgsvaldet had no reason to be a part of. Brewmasters leading the way for the protesters to march against the military present on the island and for indepence of Ymirland.
 
It was joined by Norgsveltian settlers and the native Akuanists in marchs for autonomy with a handful of members outright pushing for independence. The response from the military was harsh, with military action against the protesters and enforcing martial law. Arresting several brewmasters and activists charging them with treason.
 
The military courts in all cases found them guilty and hanged them. Resulting in further protesting against the military present on the island. The military enforced martial law in Ymirland declaring the country in a state of distress. Cracking down on freedom of speech and movement within the country. The population was beaten into submission, until after Norgsveldet left the Great War where martial law.
 
==== 1920 Crown State status ====
Political pressure from Ymirland and from internal Norgsveldet forced them to begin the process of independence for Ymirland. Several months of negotiations took place between the colonial office, the Norgsveltian crown and the collection Brewmasters and native independent activists. While full independence wouldn’t be given right away, an informal agreement leading to independence would be given within twenty to fifty years after Crown State status.
 
Line 92 ⟶ 80:
According to transcripts from the PMs of both sides of Ymirland, first believe aid would only come foreign aid in funds, military equipment and training. Instead the [[Federation of the Southern Coast|Federation]] sent 50 thousand troops to which the [[South Hills]] respond by matching the number of troops and equipment sent. Much to the shock both the South and North Ymirland governments.
 
Majority of the civil war was fought was between the foreign powers instead of the YmirsYmir's militaries who was sidelined on garrison and defense duties. Nearly every battle after the arrival of the foreign militaries fighting only each other exclusively, with only small numbers of Ymirland forces taking part. The early fighting in the war consistently shifted around as each force tried to out maneuver each other before stagnating.
 
The war in the South Hills was unpopular. [TUVA PLS]
Line 119 ⟶ 107:
[[Olav I|King Olav I of Norgsveldet]] visited Ymirland after the Civil War ended. Paying his respect to the dead, and held a speech about how he supports the Royal twins efforts in unifying the country after the civil war. Olav stated he will actively work with the Norgsveltian government to establish a [[North Concordian Economic Forum|NCEF]] reconstruction program into Ymirland.
 
== Government and Politics ==

The 16 members of this court which are selected by the providences assemblies, each providence gets to vote in four supreme judges into the constitutional court.
 
=== House of Tolvstat ===
The present monarch is Jarlynja Elin Tovlstat, who has been reigned since the reformation of Ymirland in 2020. Her succession was disputed by her twin brother Sindre after her father's death, Otto Tolvstat which accidently led into a civil war. While the Ymirland branch only has two members currently alive. The [[Norgsveldet|Norgsveltian]] branch of the Tovlstat family several members alive and was uninvolved in the civil war. The crown prince is Elin's twin brother Sindre, which led to some push back within the two northern providences but far more approval in the southern two providence.
 
While the socialist Constitution of Ymirland can grand emergency executive power to the Jarlynja. It can be only be used in times of emergency when a government cannot be formed or in times of civil unrest, though doing so is considered to be a extreme.

Due to the switch to the Red Krone from the United Krone, with the two primary reasons to distance itself away from [[Norgsveldet|Norgsveltian]] influence and the joining of the [[Red Crown Economic Union|RCEU]] Monetary Union. The switch, while not controversial to the general population, business leaders raised concerns stimming from the volume of trade and investment coming from [[Norgsveldet]] despite the strained relations.
 
==== Exchange Programs ====
The first major currency exchange program started with the South and more rural areas of Ymirland, targeting the farmers and laborers in the region. Viewing it as a political necessary to bring the former Southern Ymirland peoples into fold of the new complete Ymirland country.
