Luz de Bia
Introduction
Luz de Bia, or Light of Doc's Biatch, was created by seceding Jidington from Eno Chia to help fight Riombara. Shortly after, God said the New World would end and the gates of Hell opened unleashing its hordes. Mankind united to fight for survival but the hordes were big and realms vanished. Fighting for survival the grand leader of the hordes was killed in the north desert and mankind turned the table. As the hordes slowly disappeared Luz and Eno joined forces to create a new golden age together.

History
Founding
If our original mother realm, Eno Chia, which was later to become annexed by Luz, was losing so badly to the new threats around her, where in the world did she get the troops to takeover Jiddington and start a secession? This is an interesting question about the founding of Luz.
Luz de Bia traditionally meant Light (Luz) of (de) Doc's Biatch (Bia), it could also mean Light of Bianca, meaning white, or Beatriz, meaning she who brings happiness.
First Age
Before the first undead invasion, our realm was a Monarchy ruled by Doc's Biatch. Her and her peers warred with Riombara and in fact sent Roimbara to the isles. Luz de Bia's other great successes where in the area of diplomacy where they allied with Enweil, Volghor and Eno Chia and forced Grehk to relocate to where it is now known as Old Grehk.
When the work began against Riombara, Luz de Bia forces pushed Westwards against incredible odds... Eno Chia had really messed up, and given the enemy plenty of opportunity to set up powerful defenses, and a powerful army, while Eno Chia had neither. However there were few gains and the war progressed slowly.
And change did happen, Luz no longer had the influence of Doc's Biatch and changed to democracy under Danang Isig. Some say it is a result of Enwiel's pressure to force all realms on Beluterra to a democracy others claim that that had nothing to do with it. As Chancellor Nhoc puts it:
"Our change from a Monarchy to a Democracy has nothing to do with the realm's name and as much to do with any of our neighbours as with the hump on my camel's back, and for the record I have no camel. It happened after the first undead invasion, during which all nobles fought, suffered and died together regardless of having or not titles. From early on we realized we were all equal and free to make our choices, and by the end our ruler, Danan Isig the wisest we ever had, debated with us and we all decided to change the realm into a more democratic institution. At the time we voted and a democracy was chosen. Throughout the continent similar events happened independently in most realms, and as of now only one realm is left that doesn't elect at least half of it's council. There was no noticeable conspiracy that I'm aware, just the realization after the what had faced that all men are equal to each other."
Second Age
Volghor helps us try to end our war by attacking from the Islands.
We keep pushing West, forcing our enemies to focus on us, giving Eno chia time to rebuild... and finally... start to "do something".
Our enemies Riombara very existense was put on trial. Lady Doc's Biatch Primus (LdB) argues in favor of exterminating and sparing the enemy, and then asks for a vote, taking no vote herself. The people decided that it would make LdB ever greater if she showed mercy, and if our enemies were to agree to the terms: Permanent exile to the Isles, and not to create hostile disturbances with us, lest we exterminate them. Riombara accepted.
