Westmoor |

Westmoor is a realm on the East Continent founded by friendly secession from Perdan. Its crest is recognisable by the sword and rose, the red rose signifying passion and the sword is the will to enforce it.
The realm motto, 'Causarum Amicitia et Memoria' , means simply, for the cause of friendship and memories, and reminds the knights of Westmoor of the reason for the realms founding and the history of lost allies on the East Continent.
The idea of Westmoor's creation began with King Nightmare of Perdan, who desired to see the rebirth of his long lost ally, Oligarch. His successor King Sangue reinforced the idea and brought Perdan a step closer by leading the realm in a successful campaign against Fontan, capturing the city of Westmoor. Lady Evangeline, former Queen and General of Perdan, was chosen for appointment to lead the idea. However, since decades have come and gone since the falling of Oligarch the idea became a new realm, with it own identity and the opportunity to create its own position within the continent. The idea became Westmoor.
The Geography
Westmoor is nestled with Badlands of Sultanate of Asena to its west, rural regions of Fontan to the north, and to its east the rolling mountains of Evora. To Westmoor's south one can take a boat ride to visit the realm of Perdan and Perdan city.

Diplomacy & Treaties
Diplomatic Relations
With the exception of our enemies in Sirion, Westmoor has generally good relations with all other realms on the East Continent. We are currently in an alliance with Fontan, Sultanate of Asena, and the Obsidian Islands. Relations with Perdan and Caligus have been dropped from alliance to peace because of the war in the south between the two.
The War of Fontanese Aggression
Fontan declared war on Westmoor the day of its creation. The reason given was because of Perdan's war on Fontan and the capture of the Westmoor duchy. Chancellor Mikhail of Fontan stated he wished to see Westmoor destroyed, but would not encroach on Perdanese lands: Chancellor Mikhail's address explaining war declaration.
Despite Fontan's superior size and wealth, Westmoor was been quite successful. The war was ended when Fontan sued for peace and surrendered, and Westmoor's allies were needed elsewhere.
Friendly Neighbours
Westmoor took a controversial stance when they decided to cement their friendship with their small and struggling neighbours, the Sultanate of Asena. At this time, Westmoor promised to be a peaceful buffer to the Sultanate's southern border.
