Kingdom of Nosogov

 Kingdom of Nosogov 

The Kingdom of Nosogov was a minor Kingdom that was the predecessor of the Kingdom of Arkadia.

 History 

The Kingdom of Nosogov was a Kingdom led by the Numerius Dynasty, the dynasty that now rules Arkadia. The exact origins and date of the kingdom are unknown, but it has existed for many years. After the Allfather war, the Kingdom gained some power, expanding it's military and eventually looking out to their neighbors for expansion.

King Charles the second lead Nosogov at the time, and was a popular leader in the Northern regions. This, in contrast to the King of Bursk, who was seen as lousy and barbaric at times. That King, named Balyov, had centralized his powers enormously in the past few years.

He was disgusted by the rich nobles, and never gave them any power or voice in the leadership. Unlike the Bursk upper-class, the Nosgov Nobles held power and privileges. Charles II saw this as a great opportunity to extend his Kingdom, and made secret deals and alliances with Burk's unrecognized Nobles. In a well planned and executed coup, King Balyov was assassinated, and his followers were murdered. Swiftly after, the Kingdoms merged and former Bursk nobles were granted the same privileges as the Nosgovs. But that wasn't all. In the nearby Duchy of Wythover, Barbarian tribes held control over vast mining areas and fruitful lands. Once Burks merged with Nosogov, the armies moved in to Wythomer, and triggered a civil war within the Duchy. The barbarians fought bravely, but suffered heavy casualties and lost strategicly important locations. The tribe leader, Lekyion, demanded a fair duel with King Charles II to determine who wins this war.

Charles accepted, and they both met at the Larbodian mountains. Surrounded by warriors of both sides, they began dueling. Despite a fierce duel, Charles lost, and was injured by Lekyion. Instead of fulfilling the deal, Charles ordered his men to open fire at Lekyion. The Tribe leader was barraged with arrows, 9 of which hitting him. Charles' army had surrounded the mountain, and any tribe warior would be slaughtered.

Charles insured that this tale would never reach the day of light, and even went as far to kill his own men to make sure it remained undiscovered. Until now, the truth of the event is still not known to the public. After winning the civil war, Wythomer merged with Nosogov aswell. As a sign of a new Empire, the three signed a treaty where in they proclaim the new Arkadian Kingdom, under leadership of the Numerius dynasty and the Noble/Aristocrat families.
