The History of Cardonia [W.I.P]

Chapter 1; the Origins

The First Records of people Settling around the Region where Cardonia is today occurs around the year 648 where The first Mention of the Kingdom of Corelia was Written, With its Capital being the City of Cardia. Overall over time Multiple Kingdoms and Federations were made, including the Kingdoms of Mardon, Londonium and Midguard, along with the federations of Meseria and Harrowstone. Another Group of People in the North called themselves the Llainfarians, who Took to living to the South of the Island of Llainfair, where the ground was the most fertile and Flattest of the Island. These Kingdoms and Federations would Expand and More would appear to the south over the Coming years. Wars and Infightings would also Take Place across the Years, with Particular Advancements of Technology being made to the Near Constant state of fighting between all the Various Kingdoms around the Region, with Gunpowder being Discovered and Used by the Kingdom of Midguard around the first Millennium. These advancements would come to a head when King Albert I, leader of the Kingdom of Londonium, was Conquering the Kingdom of Midguard during what would be called "The Precursor War", taking place in the year of 1066 Where Albert would Travel across the Midguardian Mountain range, Fighting the Midguardians with their Captured Weapons using Gunpower, eventually causing the Londonium Kingdom to win. Afterwards, Albert would Yeild the Sword as his Own whilst Slowly Bringing Corelia and Mardon into its sphere of Influence, as well as Invading the Llainfairians, though was a relatively quick war. After some Time, King Albert I would have the Other Kings in the 3 puppet kingdoms to be Silently killed and, Now with no opposition, Albert would Merge the 4 Kingdoms together, declaring the Kingdom of Cardonia.

Sub-section; The Sword of Morrigan

Legend would have it that Albert aome across a Sword that, with a switch of a button, the Sword's Blade would be Covered in a Blackish Liquid, before a small orange glow appeared, causing the Blade to Ignite in a Blue Flame. Albert would Use this Sword Throughout the War, striking Fear into the Midguardians and Eventually the Kingdom of Midguard became a Londonium Puppet state. Albert I would die however during the Unification war, where his sword Was lost and Has never been found to this day. The Sword has now Become Known as the Sword of Morrigan, which is a constant Source of Mystery of where it went or even if it existed. Needless to say the Closest resemblance to the Sword of Morrigan is the Flame Swords Used by the Cardonian Royal and Minister Guards, along with the Dark Winter Grand Guards.

Chapter 2; The Unifcation war

The Unification war Would Be the Vision of King Albert I and his Son, Julian II, bringing about the Unification of the Region under the Kingdom of Cardonia. After Albert's death in the year of 1094 at the battle of Trinestone, Julian II would become King, Eventually Annexing the counties of Westina, Harowstone, Lesterchire, Trasia and Meseria, proclaiming the First Cardonian Empire in 1116 where Julian would Declare himself Imperator of Cardonia. Imperator from this Point forward would Mean the King of Kings for the Cardonians, as well as the Title of a Monarch who has Brought About the Country to A new era of Prosperity which, was about to come very soon. Whilst the First Imperator's reign was Short, lasting only another Decade, King Bishop I would be crowned as a new Imperator, and begun to invest heavily into Shipbuilding Industries and Martime Navigation, to see what Lies beyond the Land.
