'''Vanadia'''
== History ==
=== Aldland/Artachi ===
The Vanadians originated from a continent they know as Aldland, which is believed to be modern
=== Maetalamh/Adelaar ===
Sometime in their history, many groups of Aldlanders were forced to leave the continent due to a tyrannical ruler known as Đuribhinn who had taken over all of Aldland. Many groups fled and formed many different cultures, one of these groups was what became the Vanadians. They were led by a great warrior who was thought to be a demi-god known as Dearac Ehl. He and his followers founded the city of Elvmhor Anbhajn in the continent of [[Adelaar]].
The Vanadians stayed on Maetalamh for a considerable amount of time, but
=== Kuthara ===
Line 70:
Most of the gods are not actually gods but instead mortals who became diefied in life by their actions to help the early Aldlanders during the end of the ice age. The only god who was not ever present on earth is Talamhor, she is the main god in the Vanadian religion and is said to have created the earth itself.
The Vanadian Faith is not generally considered a religion by most Vanadians, but instead a form of ancestor worship. Due to this many Vanadians practice other faiths such as Sengarianism or Agdarrism.
=== Related Cultures ===
Aldic cultures inhabit many different areas across the globe, even before the Vanadians arrived in Kuthara Aldic peoples lived in the areas of Själenland and it is even thought that the Kalikhs are originally Aldic. It is also thought that a few Aldic peoples landed in Omis sometime in the last 400 years, living in the settlement of Solevant Soros, however it is thought these people are extinct. One of the surviving examples of other Aldic cultures are the Jotnarian Vikings, many of whom are direct descendants of Vanadians.
== Settlements ==
Line 84 ⟶ 86:
=== Vhithafen ===
Vhithaven was one of the Rhumish settlements within old Vanadia. It was ruled over by Candac var Graefon who disappeared into obscurity after the Rhumish leadership vanished in the mountain of Gnibelhaym, and the collapse of the Rhumish realm. It is thought he was killed in some of the rioting that happened at the time, although his body was never found. Vhithafen was named so after it's walls and buildings made up of diorite and calcite from the local quarries. It was one of the first sights many sailors would see when they sailed into Rhumlaantd, as the walls would glisten in the sunlight.
=== Kalikhan & Wrensbath ===
Whilst not culturally Vanadian, Kalikhan and Wrensbath were situated in the constituency of Vanadia during the existence of the Triumvirate of Ceyreto. In the short time these cities were in Vanadia, they gained little cultural influence from their rulers.
=== Taobh Locha ===
Taobh Locha was the last Vanadian town led by Jarl Sigeric Ehlsonn as a static settlement. It was a member of the Commonwealth of Blackthorn and to this day still falls under it's claims. Whilst the structures of the town still exist, it remains empty and unpopulated.
=== Turlann ===
Turlann was a member of the Kingdom of Sunderboren, it functioned as a military camp for the Army of Vanadia. Upon the fall of the nation, this camp was abandoned.
