===The Beginning===
+
Astrum is the oldest living realm in [[Dwilight]] and is the first Democracy to flourish in these lands. Founded as a Theocracy of [[Sanguis Astroism]], Astrum served for long ages as the main defender of the church and was in fact the last Theocracy standing. Eventually however the era of Theocracies ended, Astrum and the Church drifted apart, and in early 2022 Astrum severed legal ties with the Church and became a Democracy.
Astrum is one of the newest realms on [[Dwilight]], formed by nobles from the theocracy of [[Morek]].
 
  
The realm was founded on the trade island of {{Reglink|DW|Libidizedd}}.
+
Astrum seeks to create itself anew. From our storied histories we draw inspiration, but it is the future which we most proudly seek to claim. The Democracy of Astrum will shine as a beacon of Liberty upon Dwilight!
  
Astrum was created to spread the word of the Bloodstars across the land, the expedition party was sent from [[Morek]] with honour and cheer.<br><br>
+
On 2023-01-28 Astrum renamed itself to [[Wicrose]].
===Government ===
 
The government of Astrum is a simple Theocracy, the ruler or Vasila as the locals call the noble who runs the realm heads the council, but relies heavily on the information supplied to them from the people placed as Strategos, Haruspex Maximus and Fiduciary.
 
  
The position of Strategos and Fiduciary are voted for every three months to ensure a suitable amount of time and competition for each noble currently in the roles. Only the Haruspex Maximus and Vasila are permenantly in position as they should hold the strongest religious beliefs and it is their mission to expand the belief of the Bloodstars.<br><br><br>

===History===

[[Image: astrum_cities.jpg]]</center><br><br>
 
Astrum was formed under the three Bloodstars, Maddening being the most potent and powerful lends its power to the capital city of {{Reglink|DW|Libidizedd}}, which Auspicious and Austere lend theirs to Mimer and Eidulb respectfully.<br>

===Constitution===
 +
On 29/06/2022 the Constitution of Astrum was ratified by a free referendum of all the nobles. Thereafter Astrum became a Constitutional Democracy. From that time on the Constitution became the supreme legal document in Astrum. No Law or Government changes may be enacted which are in discordance with its provisions.
  
===Religion===
+
The text of the Constitution can be accessed and maintained here: [[Astrum/_Constitution|The Constitution of Astrum]].
The official Religion of Astrum is [[Sanguis Astroism]]. (The worship of the Bloodstars.) The Bloodstars are three red stars: the Maddening Star, the Auspicious Star and the Austere Star, that only appear a few times a year for a week or more. The constellation curiously hangs permanently over west Dwilight.  Check the current phases of the Bloodstars [http://www.traption.org/cgi/bloodstar here.]
 
  
It is believed that the constellation causes madness among the natives of Dwilight and is a good omen to those of the eastern continents. It was the rise of Sanguis Astroism that led to Morek's rise over the natives.
+
=== Government ===
 +
Astrum is a Constitutional Democracy. All government titles and provisions are documented in the [[Astrum/_Constitution|Constitution]].
  
The rank Guardians of the Temple was established in Astrum between autumn and winter of the Year 5. The Guardians are bound by an oath to protect the Temples and Priests of Sanguis Astroism.
+
=== Religion ===
 +
There is no state religion, although the majority do worship Sanguis Astroism.

== History ==
[[/Festivals and Holidays#Holidays|Holidays]]
+
The vast and rich history of Astrum is difficult to behold, yet the effort to record it in a single volume has been undertaken by various chroniclers and scribes of Astrum. The tome named [[Astrum/Chronica Astrorum|Chronica Astrorum]] attempts to compile this history to ensure that this rich legacy lives on.
* Astrum Luminaria
 
* Fasting of Austere
 
[[/Festivals and Holidays#Festivals|Festivals]]
 
* The Festival of Auspicious Ascending
 
  
===Military===
+
The tome owes inspiration to the [[Chronica Astrorum|efforts]] of a modest knight of Astrum, [[Keen Family/Munsel|Munsel Keen]], who has long perished but left a lasting inspiration for scholarly pursuit.
  
The military structure of Astrum had for a long time consisted of only one army: '''[[Astrum/The Order of Astrum|The Order of Astrum]]'''. Sponsored by Astrum's first Strategos Justin Greystone, the army represented a milestone in the military affairs and expansion of the realm, but due to very bad sponsoring system, it is now departed. The Order will always be remembered with joy, especially among the older nobles of Astrum.

Nowadays, the military organization of Astrum is based on Ducal Armies and area coverages. All Ducal Armies are led by their Marshals and at the disposal of the Strategos of Astrum. Due to a favorable and unique geographic position of Astrum, each army is assigned to guard a certain choke point. This system adds to the flexibility of all armies as they encircle the choke points if needed.

Liberty under the Law!
Defend the Constitution!

Astrum is the oldest living realm in Dwilight and is the first Democracy to flourish in these lands. Founded as a Theocracy of Sanguis Astroism, Astrum served for long ages as the main defender of the church and was in fact the last Theocracy standing. Eventually however the era of Theocracies ended, Astrum and the Church drifted apart, and in early 2022 Astrum severed legal ties with the Church and became a Democracy.

Astrum seeks to create itself anew. From our storied histories we draw inspiration, but it is the future which we most proudly seek to claim. The Democracy of Astrum will shine as a beacon of Liberty upon Dwilight!

On 2023-01-28 Astrum renamed itself to Wicrose.
