Kingdom of Islanio

Flag of Islanio

History - Founded in Year -46 by King Lorronzo I, the Kingdom of Islanio originated as an island of four self-governing villages torn apart by bitter territorial feuds. Seeking an end to the violence, the village leaders convened a five hour summit and agreed to appoint an impartial outsider as their monarch. To ensure lasting stability, King Lorronzo I established the People's Senate to grant each village equal representation, ushering in an era of peace and prosperity. Following his death in Year -5, his son, Lorronzo II, took charge, and in Year -1, Islanio merged with the Federal Republic of Viscarono to form the Federation of Southern Calaverian States, where it eventually evolved into a constitutional monarchy under the constitutions of all future unified Calaverian governments.

Government - The Kingdom of Islanio currently operates as a Calaverian state with a semi-autonomous constitutional monarchy. Like all states, the kingdom must follow the constitution of the Republic, however, they still choose to appoint a king as their leader, who manages the state economy and almost all state internal and external affairs.

Capital - The capital of Islanio is the city of Southport. However, after recent terrorist attacks, the city has been reduced to rubble, and many government officials now operate out of Viscarro.

Important Figures - Important figures from Islanio include...

King Lorronzo I - First appointed king of the Kingdom of Islanio. Established the People's Senate.

King Lorronzo II - Son of the first king. Successfully unified the nation with Viscarro in Year -1.

Current Serving Leader(s) - The current head of state of the Federal Kingdom of Islanio is King Lorronzo II.

Flag - The flag of the Kingdom of Islanio was created and adopted in Year -40. The 4-pointed star represents the 4 villages that united to form the kingdom, and the blue representing the sea and sky, which Islanian philosophers studied for centuries.

Map & Location - The kingdom is located directly east of Viscarro City on an island in the southern regions of mainland Calaveria.

West Calaverian Commonwealth

Flag of the West Calaverian Commonwealth

History - Before becoming a state within the Federation of Calaveria, the region existed as an independent nation known as the Calaverian Commune, founded in Year -89 by Chairman Ibistine Orion on the principles of libertarian socialism. Over the next several decades, the nation struggled with internal instability as political factions fought over the power of the central government, with major reforms like the Council of Many failing to unite the public. Tensions reached a breaking point in Year -1 when radical violence sparked a short, but large, war with the neighboring Federation. Following the Commune's surrender, the territory was integrated and reorganized into the West Calaverian Commonwealth the same year.

Government - The Commonwealth kept the old Council of Many, as well as the old promises of the old Commune, like light socialism, many personal freedoms, and a light government as the primary focus of the new government. The Council of Many consists of 999 elected citizens to manage the nation's economy, laws, trade, affairs, and domestic/external policies. Every 6 years, the regular citizens and the Council vote on an elected Chairman. Each citizen gets 1 vote, and each Councilman gets technically 1 vote, however, this special vote will count as 20 votes in a federal election.

Capital - The Commonwealth's capital is located in the northern region of the state in Orion City.

Important Figures - Notable figures from the land include...

Ibistine Orion - Peaceful founder of the Commune and its first chairman.

Eugene Fransise - Second chairman of the Commune and created the Council of Many.

Harold Zelrafisk - Last elected Chairman who fought for unification between the Federation and the Commune and was assassinated by radical extremists.

Andrew Urthano - Radical extremist who organized the assassination of Harold Zelrafisk and Joseph Werrin. Last chairman before the collapse of the Commune.

Robert Jones - First Governor of the new Commonwealth. Fought for Calaverian unification within the Commune.

Gabriel Jones - Notable and very popular Councilman in the Council of Many.

Current Serving Leader(s) - The current governor of the West Calaverian Commonwealth is Robert Jones.

Flag - The 4 golden stripes and 4 diamond stars, as they are known, represent the unification of the people of West Calaveria and their perseverance as strong as diamond to stay unified as a nation. The flag was proposed by Gabriel Jones, brother of Robert Jones, very shortly after the Commune became annexed under the Federation as a symbol for the new unified Commonwealth. It was used almost everywhere, but was not officially adopted by the government until Year 5.

Map & Location - The Commonwealth occupies and spans the entire current western region of Calaveria, which is entirely a very thick dark forest.
