First Age
Founding of the Rines Republic
Soon after Beluaterra was discovered, many nobles took ship to explore the new lands. Arriving, they saw that only a few cities along the east coast were advanced enough to have risen above barbarism, all other lands were still rogue. Those original cities were (from north to south): Lin Helon, Agyr, Mhed, Fronepu, Fwuvoghor, Enweilios, Rines, Athol Margos, Grekh, Irombro and Eno. Soon after the first settlers had spent some time on the new continent, realms were created in those cities: Lin Helonon, Ar Agyr, Melhed, Fronen, Voghor, Enweil, Rines Republic, Athol Collective, Grekh and Eno Chia. Of those, only Fronen, Enweil and Riombara now remain in their ancestral lands.
The Rines Republic was founded under Panther II around April/May 03.
After some peacefull expansion soon the first conflicts arose, especially in the south were 6 cities lying next to each other vied for dominance. We took Cjelegy and Avengmil - then the first war on this continent was sparked on the small island that was divided between Rines and Athol Margos.
War against the Athol collective
Rines being the richer city by far, the chances of the Athol Collective to survive were low. After an initial round of negotiations, where an offer to merge the two realms as equals was refused, war ensured. Soon Athol was under siege and its palisade stormed. Since our income was still low, we never mananged to field an army big enough to actually _take_ Athol. To keep Athol from comming back, we had to maintain a significant garrison in this city for several months(!).
Then we took Ajitmon and Melegra and a treaty with Voghor was signed, establishing our joint border between Fwuvoghor and Melegra.
Around this time, Panther II left and Balin was elected as President. If we had but known what that would mean...how power did corrupt him and of the darkest betrayal ever.
Grekh's Grand Treck East
Grekh (then controlling Ardmore, Glongin, Bym and Mio Dupaki) had been under pressure from Eno Chia (then already controlling the city of Jidington) for quite a while. In addition they saw that between Enweil, Eno Chia and Irombro there was no place for them to grow fast enough to survive. Therefore they decided to gather enough men and money and head northeast to establish their realm once more in the wilderness. Before they departed into the unknown, they offered Irombro their old lands - mostly to defy the heavyhanded politics of Eno Chia. Then they left and were not heard from again for a long while before founding their realm anew around the city of Keffa.
During this time these nobles fought for Riombara: Balin, Raimona, Tan o'Kammar, Beast Rune, Llaerin Stark, Ryan B, Rip Cohn Thorn, Virath, Andy, Uanu, Cpt. Kronic, Durugar, Mufasa
