History (Ataresia Setting)

Drethabe was the Duke of a large province within Sundaria. 5 months after taking her throne in the year 11,990, the Warlord of Sundaria - Silnel - decided that Sundaria had more territory than it needed and that being in charge of all of it was getting too stressful. So, she decided that she would bequeath some territories to her two top political leaders. The Duchy of Drethabe was one of those territories given, the other being the Grand Duchy of Helele. The only stipulation of this granting was that Drethabe and Helele not move against Sundaria. To punctuate this point, the three states formed an alliance known as the Tri-Power.

As with the Duchy of Drethabe, the Grand Duchy of Helele was given to the Duchess Helele 5 months after Sundaria's Warlord Silnel took the throne. When Silnel first told Helele and Drethabe that an alliance was required for them to gain these territories, she jumped at the chance. Her desire for war and more territory matches that of Silnel herself. Helele also worked as Sundaria's top military advisor for over 300 years, and she served the Warlords with extreme fidelity. When Helele requested some territory, Silnel saw it fit to reward her loyalty with the larger of the two territories that were being given.

Sundaria is a warfaring state. Its government is monarchical, led by a Warlord. Upon the death of the Warlord, the monarchy is transferred to the Warlord's eldest child, or the Warlord's designated top advisor, if they have no children. The Warlord can also designate a person of their choice to become the Warlord if they wish to.
