'''The Republic of Lydoneia''' (Lydoneian: [Ly-done-e-ia]), is a republic nestled in the Southeast of Koganon, and is a free republic led by a ruling democracy, where the leader is elected and leads until he is removed by the house or steps down. The capital is the domain of [[Haven]].
 
== Lydoneian History ==
 
=== Pre-Southern Union ===
The nation of Lydoneia was originally founded as the Southern Union by a French man named Hat_Crab with the original capital being Fort Roberts, on the very south coast of the continent of Koganon. The town was formed in Late June 2021. The town, after gaining two members (Aethelmod and Westerian, the future founding fathers of [[Hanau]]) became very stagnant due to Hat_Crabs stubborness on development, restricting his townsfolks to tents, refusing to allow them to expand beyond that for nearly a week. After time had passed, Aethelmod had grown sick of living in Fort Roberts and quickly expanded west with Westerian, settling upon a beautiful piece of land between two of Koganons central rivers that flow to the south. This became the site of [[Hanau]] and future founding city of Lydoneia. Progress in the city came quickly, as the town grew fast to 4 concurrent members, with jester Hasur, Mayor Aetholmod, Head Builder Westerian and Dogs Person Cyber_Life, expanding very quickly, faster than the capital, which led to [[Hanau]] becoming the de-facto capitol of the [[The Southern Union]]. Soon after, with Hanau becoming angry with Hat_Crab over his poor and inactive leadership, Aethelmod and a group of armed guards forced Hat_Crab to step down as emperor of the Southern Union, handing over full rights to Aethelmod who would become the Republics first Minister. Days after gaining control of the union, Aethel decided it would be best to seperate itself from the Southern Union, creating a new identity for itself, and as such a nationwide poll was held on the new nation name, and the Republic of Lydoneia was the victor by a landslide, due to how engrained freedom had become under Hat_Crabs rule. After the transfer of power, Aethelmod restlessly lead the nation, but soon also succumbed to inactivity, eventually also being overthrown in the same fashion as Hat_Crab, leaving in the night under internal pressure from the House to resign, disbanding [[Hanau]] In the proccess. So as such, with Aethels departure, RapturedSplicer (Mayor of [[Haven]]) was named the Second Minister of Lydoneia, hoping to lead it from the inactivity it had been doomed with.
Lydoneia was originally an avoided area, as the wall of tundra surrounding the taiga was deemed impossible to cross. Eventually, at an unknown date, however, historical record shows that a group of people now called "Pre Lydoneians" eventually ventured in by sea from [[Lothridge]]. On this voyage, the Caelistis Isles where also discovered, however no one settled on any of the islands due to the extreme cold. A generation after this discovery, however, the Pre-Lydoneians became a completely seperate people from the Ashinians before them, and the area which is in the modern day ruins of Fort Roberts was forgotten. Some time later, a man by the name of Hat_Crab refounded Fort Roberts and built up the area as the new capital of his nation, [[The Southern Union|The Southern Union.]]
 
=== Establishment of the Southern Union ===
== Politics and Internal Structure ==
The nation of Lydoneia was founded as the Southern Union by the before said Hat_Crab with the capital being Fort Roberts as a monarchal society with Hat Crab being the emperor of the country. The young nation faced it's first big obstacle when it found itself bordering Icesteel territory. Icesteel was not happy about the newer claims on the northern rivers, and with the integration of new towns such as [[Haven]] and [[Iskandar]].
 
=== Growth ===
The nation, after the annexation of [[Hanau]] (modern day Havens Keep) and [[Haven]] saw the nations population explode from ~8 players to ~25 players. On top of that, the 2nd Icesteel Empire collapsed, fully legitimizing Lydoneia's claims on Iskandar and southern Icesteel. However, while all this was happening, Crab's capital of Fort Roberts didn't grow and instead became dwarfed by the towns of Haven and Hanau.
 
=== Coup ===
Although the capital of The Southern Union was Fort Roberts, it seemed as though the running of the nation was done from Hanau. Emperor Hat Crab also revoked voting rights in the national assembly from Kithe and Iskandar, leaving not only the people upset with Crab, but also the bureaucrats angry with him as well. Then, on July 18th, 2021, the leaders of Hanau (Aethelmod) and Haven ([[Aurelius of Haven]]) threw a coup to overthrow Emperor Crab. The coup was peaceful and successful and some new changes were made. 1. The Southern Union would become a Republic. 2. Emperor Crab would be able to still be a general, but step down as emperor. 3. The capital of the country was changed to Hanau. 4. The nations name would be changed to the Republic of Lydoneia. 5. All towns would get say in the national assembly, and 6. Aethelmod would become prime minister (Although this was more of a symbolic position)
 
=== Establishment of the Republic ===
After Aethelmod took charge of the country, he changed prime minister to make it a symbolic position like a figurehead, and handed all decisions over to the national assembly. The Caelistis Isles, a city formed by [[Rynnth of Caelestis Isles|Rynnth]] joined the nation shortly after, quickly becoming a very wealthy trade city with tons of Gold and Iron. The brand new Republic also quickly began to establish good relations with [[Kogongu]] and the[[Arcadian Altanate]], eventually coming to an alliance. Finally a flag was also chosen for the new country, being a red backround with a trident colored in the national colors.

* Lydoneian - The main language of the republic, it is derived from languages of the Northeast of Kogonon, arriving in the Southeast due to trade between the two regions. Lydoneian is spoken in the cities and is much easier to learn from an outsider due to it's simplicity. This version is also the official language of the ROL, being used in official documents like legal code and state records.
*Traditional Lydoneian - Spoken in rural areas mostly southeast and southwest, traditional Lydoneian is much more difficult to learn from outsiders and even to some Lydoneian speakers. Traditional Lydoneian is the closest thing to the original Lydoneian that originated from the Northeast of Kogonon.
