Irombrozia

Leadership

On January 19, 1010, Irombrozia officially surrendered to Riombara due to the pressures of starvation, abandonment by allies, inability to secure new lands, lack of nobles, the ravages of the Plague, and impending and sure military defeat. The treaty was signed by Hireshmont Vellos as Ambassador of Irombrozia, and Delvin Anaris as High Chancellor of Riombara, in Bolkenia. It was a total surrender of the recognized and sovereign realm of Irombrozia of all existing political rights and claims to sovereignty to Riombara, without any future rights to ancestral lands. Full immunity was granted to most Irombrozians, except a few Riombaran defectors, who were still given free passage northwards. Irombrozia lasted for 1,283 days, over 15 years, never having more than 19 nobles, nor more than 17,000 total CS, nor more than 8,000 mobile CS, nor more than 3 regions. Irombrozia was a dream of a more chivalrous world: a dream which today is no more, yet which wanders on the wind as the spirit of its Phoenix-banner.

Regions Making Up the Irombrozian Cultural Region

The "Irombrozian Cultural Region" are the regions east of the Eno River, and south of Ardmore or Avengmil. Sometimes Ardmore and/or Glongin are included, however, their proximity to Grehk, and their frequent use as a conduit for large armies and as major trade routes, have caused their culture to be largely different. The Five regions of the Irombrozian Cultural Region all share certain qualities. Their natural hub of trade is Irombro (though many Bolkenians do trade in Eno, especially with current Alluranian control of the region). Their dominant religion is Qyrvaggism (though Alluranism has a substantial following in Bolkenia). They are predominantly farmers, though the freemen (those not in serfdom) are frequently traders or horse-breeders and horse-traders. This area is internationally known for it's fabulous horses. Due to the size of the horse business, it is not unheard of for serfs to have horses, and for nobles to have a dozen or so. They are numerous and cheap here, while in many foreign lands they are expensive. The people in this area are also fiercely independent, showing a history of unwillingness to bend to any foreign authority. While Irombro itself has a substantial portion of the population, the area could be characterized as primarily agrarian. Even in Irombro, many of the people reside in the fields around the city, not the city itself, and within the city, gardens are a common sight. Irombro itself is a fiercely patriotic city, frequently having parades and celebrations to commemorate days in Irombrozia's history, or various Qyrvaggian holidays.

Diplomacy

Realm	Relationship	Reasoning
Avalon	Alliance	We are allied with them. Historically, they have been an enemy, but the current war has made allies of old foes.
Bara'khur	Alliance	The inheritor of the fallen tradition of Khthon, we have found their courage not lacking, and they have become our allies.
Enweil	Alliance	Once an enemy, now a friend. Enweil has always treated us with respect, and we hope to be able to continue that relationship.
Fronen	Alliance	Old Fronen was an enemy of Irombrozia because of their alliance to Riombara; but the new Fronen is a friend of Enweil, and thus our friend.
Heen	Peace	Long an ally of Irombrozia, the distance between us and divergent policy paths have caused that ancient federation to decay. But we still see Heen as a true friend.
Hetland	Neutral	Once a friend due to their relationship tp the Republic of Fwuvoghor, we are now cool towards Hetland, lest they should attack Enweil.
Kingdom of Alluran	Neutral	We have warred in the past, but hoped for our anti-daimon alliance to last. Unfortunately, the war with Riombara ended that; but we still have no feud with the Kingdom, and hope to preserve the peace.
Melhed	Neutral	Not at war, not really concerned with each other... there is currently an attempt to foster good relations with Melhed.
Mesh	Peace	Far away, no real reason to fight with them.
Old Grehk	Peace	They seem like good chaps.
Riombara	War	Our mother-nation, who we wish wouldn't try to kill us all the time, but, instead, would let us live. We have been at war several times, and have been close allies and friends several times. Currently, we are at war, but we wish for our friendship to be restored.
Sint	Peace	Peace because we have no reason to fight each other.
Thalmarkin	Peace	Peace, largely because theya re so far away, there's no reason for us to have any animosity with them.
