History
Founding
Mantle was founded by Cyan Nox Rose-Timemantle, who, coming from another realm in which her family were esteemed nobles, wanted to rebuild the Timemantle Family name. According to legend, she found an enchanted apple shortly after her arrival in Alathra, which she sold for more then enough money to establish the City. She would establish a new branch of the Timemantle Family, the Rose-Timemantle branch, in order to run this new City.
Trouble first came to Mantle before it was even founded, as the original site of the City was to be on a Peninsula in Prospit, however, the Lothridgians would not allow settlementation there. Left with no other Options, the Grand Princess to be departed for Koganon, where, near the fellow independent city of Eisenbury, she would find an uninhabited, snowy Island to call home.
Financial Crisis of 22
In the Year 22, a Financial Crisis struck the newly formed City-state, as it began to very quickly run out of Money. During this time, the Grand Princess controversially ordered more funding be poured into both the research of the Magical, Alchemy, and Mining Industries, a Gamble that would pay off with the invention of the Magitech Pickaxe, which allowed for extremely increased ore production. This, coinciding with the founding of Mx Pharmaceuticals by the future Viscountess Sienna, lead to a major economic boom that propelled Mantle economically onto the world stage.
The Violet Scourge Outbreak of 31
In the year 31, 10 years after the founding of Mantle, it became Ground Zero for the Violet Scourge epidemic, as a startling new disease threatened to destroy the entire city, and an eternal night fell over it. A multinational foreign intervention was the only thing that managed to save the battered city, which incurred over 1.1 Million Mantlean Marks in damage and the lives of 247 citizens being lost.
Economy and Government
Mantle's Economy is mostly capitalist, with the only checks instituted on the Government being labor laws to protect workers. The Mantlean Government believes that capitalism encourages innovation, and therefore has a hands-off, Lazes-faire approach to the economy.
The Government itself is headed by the Grand Princess, who appoints "Viscounts" to run the various districts of the city. Viscounts can further appoint up to two Barons to assist in the administration of their district. Both titles are considered hereditary, however, they can be revoked at any time by any person above them in the Mantlean court.
