Utlia (Island)

Utlia is a mountainous island in the Attu Archipelago between eee and Casea. Utlia is currently governed by the Republic of Utlia.

History

Tribal Era

Earliest records show that prior to unification Utlia was inhabited by scattered groups of semi-nomadic tribes. The largest of these tribes were the Utans, a group who had settled in the northwestern grasslands. The inner mountain range was the most densely packed with tribal groups on the island. The southern tip of Utlia held very few groups, however these groups became some of the most important as much of Utlian culture comes from this region.

Unification

After settling many of the tribes began to amalgamate into larger groups. In the north the Utans merged with smaller neighbors to the east and controlled the island north of where the Balmor river flows, this group became the Eutan Kingdom on 12-11 1940 TT. The southern groups merged into the Frish Kingdom after being formed on 23-6 1863 TT.

The Frishs and the Eutans were by far the most prosperous of the proto-kingdoms in Utlia, with many of the smaller groups falling apart. The two groups were each othe and had a friendly professional relationship. On 4-7 1102 TT Wynlid Liamia and Shaen eien, the kings of the Eutan Kingdom and the Frish Kingdom respectively, met at a site near the Balmor river and signed a declaration of unification, merging the two into one kingdom, known as Utlia. This moment has long been mainly attributed to Wynlid but in recent years, modern Utlian historians have began to recognize the importance of the Frishens in the agreement.

Post-Unfication

After Utlia became unified, the kingdom began to annex the nearby city-states of Tela, Dirn and Lesyhan. Tela and Dirn accepted treaties for their land in exchange for noble statuses for the ruling families. Lesyhan refused a similar treaty, leading a 8 month war which saw an Utlian victory on 1097 TT. After this war, all inhabited land on the island became owned by the Unified Monarchy.

Republic of Utlia

On 12-6 6 TT the Last King of Utlia Ywylin, who was overthrown by the RGOU, a revolutionary group led by Yyme Braia and Votan who went on to establish the Republic of Utlia.
