History
Cabarchia was originally divided into four nations, Fractia, Arrudia, Bareria, and Wailikia. In 2390 after a bloody civil war, The Great King Cabarco, united the four nations into Cabarchia. He reformed a government and made each nation into a separate province. He also split up Bareria into Barria and Ereria. Together with his wife, Queen Cantabra, he set up his capital in the heart of Fractia, and called it Kotoaiobriga and his Palace, Torrelabega.
Fractia is a Industrial, high tech, fast paced province in the NE of Cabarchia, it is also home to the Cabarchi Capital Kotoaiobriga. Fractia's capial city is Mortera, it controls most of the trade and power of Cabarchia.
Arrudia was Fractia’s main rival, it is very similar to Fractia, and slightly bigger in area, however it lacks important resources, thus it is not as prosperous as Fractia but pocesses the bulk of Cabarchi Military training Facilities. Arnnuero is Arrudia’s Capital. The Lordship of Esunertus is an Arrudia conclave inside the Hesperia Regency of the Eternal Empire of Light
Barria and Ereria are sister provinces and were once a single united nation of Bareria, however after the unification war, King Cabarco decided to split up this mostly rural and humble territory in fears that a united Barerian army would rise up and wage war on his troops. Barria is a fairly mountainous region that borders the treacherous Pirechian Mountains. Ereria is by far the largest of the Cabarchi Provinces it’s about three times as large as Fractia and twice as large as Barria, this province is the bread basket of Cabarchia with its fertile valleys and terraced hills, this Province grows most of the food consumed in Cabarchia. Logrovia and Letaisama are the capitals of Barria and Ereria respectively.
Wailikia is the spiritual capital of Cabarchia. It is a densely wooded area full of feroucious creatures. Royal Magistrates are usually selected from The Noble Wailiki Kuezontikum Family . The Wailiki capital, Akuaio is in the foot hills with its palace of Dunwailiki on the outskirts of the city on a mountain, with overhanging balconies. Wailikia’s main defence is its unforgiving forests and escarpments and rivers and waterfalls. Wailikia’s spiritual centre is Roilobuca, it is situated deep in the forest and has at its heart is the Divine Temple of Light and Wisdom (known to the Fractians as Sophia Lucia), where new Cabarchi Kings and Queens are coronated and Royal Magistrates preside when not at the Supreme Ruler's side. The Wailiki do not fear but avoid technology preferring the ways of magick and mysticism instead.
Ortizia and the Isles of Albia and Arezia (the Oleron archipelago) though sparsely populated these lands were added as Colonies of Cabarchia by King Kalos KenOrtizio Cabarcum, after a short campaign prior to the Pirechian War, securing these islands were crucial in guaranteeing a constant supply of raw materials, as the archipelago is rich in mineral deposits. King Kalos also had a sentimental motive to take Ortizia, as his Grandmother was given in marriage to his Grandfather King Cabarco II as a symbol of everlasting peace between Cabarchia and Ortizia, however, Cabarco II’s nephew, the Ortizian King raided several Cabarchi trade vessels during King Kalos’ mother’s reign prompting a severance of formal ties and new hostilities between these once amicable peoples. By maintaining Ortizia as a Colony, The Cabarchi King could ensure direct control over the Ortizian people through direct appointment of the Captain of Ortizia. The Ortizians are Great Scientists and Traders. The main Ortizian settlement is called Ortizia, the main Albi Settlement is called Kuios, the main settlement in Arezia is knows as Laiseca.
The Pirechian Mountains were a source of great bloodshed for generations, the Pirechi and the Cabarchi have being hostile towards each other since the days of settlement, the Pirechian War ensued, the war lasted from 2460 to 2480. After the war the Pirechian Mountains were annexed from the Pirechian Territory and are now also directly under the King’s Control through the appointment of the Captain of the Pirechian Mountains. After the Annexation of the Pirechian Mountains a new settlement was established to control the region and spread Cabarchian influence through the land, this new settlement was named Karalom.
During the reign of Cabarco KenTuriaco Cabarcum, Cabarchia was occupied by the Eternal Empire. The occupation lasted from 2544 to 2581. During this time Cabarchia was allowed to stay autonomous but had to pay constant tribute and submit to the will of the Eternal Empire. During the provincial years as they became known as, the Empire had direct control over the election of the Supreme Council of Lord Protectors, but was content to let Cabarchia run its own affairs as long as they were in the best interest of the empire. In 2579 King Fractios KenFractio Cabarcum managed to drive the Imperial troops from Fractia and in 2581 from the rest of Cabarchia. After this period the King proclaimed the creation of the Barrian and Ererian Militias, the Wailiki Rangers and the Colonial Forces.
