The History and Founding of Aurvandil

"Serve the Sovereign, Protect the People, Ave Auziwandilaz"

The Kingdom of Aurvandil was founded in the 14th year of the recolonisation of Dwilight, based on the southern Maroccidens peninsula, surrounded by the Maroccidens wilds and the Marwood forests of Barca in the north (Closely situated next to the Zuma lands) and with the Madinan Pirate Collective to the east. Under the governorship of Mendicant Anhanger, and the rule of Grand Dogess Florence of Madina, the city held a great coronation ceremony in which Mendicant Anhanger was crowned Sovereign of all Candiels lands, and absolute monarch of the Candiels peoples, shortly after this the Kingdom of Aurvandil was declared as the new governing body with its Imperial Capital in Candiels, with the Gentry and Commons bound to the High Sovereign under the political union of "Commonwealth".

Governance of Aurvandil

Aurvandil as an absolute Monarchy under a political union known as the "Commonwealth", the High Sovereign who wields unrestricted power over his Kingdom and people; the lands and government utilise a feudal hierarchy where the lords directly serve the High Sovereign, and the knights directly serve their lords, unaligned nobles form the lowest tier of the gentry of Aurvandil, with only the serf born of lower standing and stature. With the High Sovereign ruling the Kingdom, he designates the control of the military over to the "Hausos Knight/Dame At Arms" to enact his will and whim, ensuring that orders are adhered to and also administered. To grant the nobles at a chance of public oratory over military matters, Aurvandil holds a military council known as the "Assemblée de Royal Sovereign l'armée du Haut", of which entrance to the Assembly are granted to nobles who prove their valour in battle, or otherwise show promise in matters military. For the judiciary of Aurvandil, the High Sovereign delegates the power of judiciary to the "Royal Arbiter of Justice", an electable position (As only some one who represents the people, can truly judge them and deliver them to justice) the Royal Arbiter Of Justice has a variety of powers, and is expected to travel the length and breadth of the Kingdom, upholding law and order at the volition of the High Sovereign when lords are on the march. For the economy and financial management of the Aurvandil Kingdom the duties fall to the office of "Royal Purser" his roles, by and large are to manage taxation and international trade, he has very limited control over the agricultural produce of the Kingdom, save to see a surplus allotted to him, sold and the profits distributed to the lords accordingly.

Aurvandil currently has no Ambassador.

The landed Gentry of Aurvandil is divided up into a caste system three different ranks; the highest is the Duke of Candiels, the second rank are the Earls (Agl and Candiels Fields) and the lowest rank and standing are the Viscounts (Zerujil, Tubrel and Lusitania) the level of lordship is decided based upon the lands they control, for more vastly populated, and productive regions the lords are Earls, for the the lesser populated and more sparsely developed regions, the lords are known as Viscounts. At current, the Viscountry encompasses the outer rim of Aurvandil, encompassing those lands on the western coastline, with the Earldoms situated entirely around the eastern coast and the city of Candiels.
