History of Karnetvor
From Antiquity to the Present Day
Chapter I: Antiquity The history of the country now called Karnetvor starts approximately 2500 years ago, when the region was first populated. Not much is known about the first inhabitants of the land, besides that they shared a common language, the now called Ancient Russian/Karnetian, from which the modern Karnetvorian, Resentinian and Russian languages originated.
The country's written history starts in the 1st Century CE, when the land became a province of the Austral Empire. The Austral Empire was a powerful state that once controlled more than half of the Western Continent. It spread its own language, Austral, for all its territories; its modern form would become the standard lingua franca in many parts of the world. It also spread the Latin alphabet, and numerous technological and cultural advances. The territory of present-day Karnetvor was part of the province of Southern Russia, with the city of Drižny as its capital.

As with every province, the Imperial Government sent ethnic Australs to settle and populate the land. They controlled all political power, and the natives, which called themselves Karnetians (in Ancient Karnetian, Karnetskiy; "[people] of the eagle") were made second class citizens. The two groups (and other minoritary groups, like the Spaninols in the south) initially co-existed peacefully, but soon the Karnetians, who were the majority, started claiming equal rights. When the Empire disintegrated in the 5th Century CE, the Karnetian people gained control of the territory, and Southern Russia was divided into numerous kingdoms and city-states. As a compromise, the Karnetian leaders allowed the Australs living in the land to remain there, as long as they swore allegiance to the respective kingdom they were in.
The most important states of this era were:

The situation changed in 850 CE, when a warlord named Peter Fedorovich converted to Christianity, took control of the old capital, Drižny, and declared himself King of the Karnetians, with the name Peter the First, founding what is called the *First Kingdom of Karnetia; sometimes called the first predecessor of modern Karnetvor. King Peter and his descendants, the Petrović Dinasty, expelled the Jetikyans from the territory of present-day Karnetvor, and by the year 989 Karnetia had conquered the western half of the country, putting it in direct conflict with Corisia. Conflict between the two powers was inevitable.
*= It is called the "First" Kingdom by modern historians, as an entity with the same name, Kingdom of Karnetia, existed from 1520 to 1863.

The First Kingdom of Karnetia, led by the descendants of King Peter I, the Petrović Dinasty, rapidly expanded, spreading the Christian religion along the way. In the 10th Century, it defeated the Jetikyan Empire in a long series of wars. Jetikya was forced to withdraw from present-day Karnetvor; it survived, but in a weakened state. Karnetia took control of the western half of Southern Russia.
As Karnetia expanded, it threatened the Corisian kingdom's dominance in the region. After decades of rivalry, on the year 1088, Corisian king Insir III sent emissaries to the King of Karnetia, Julien I, threatening Karnetia with destruction if it didn't submit. King Julien responded by executing the emissaries and sending their heads back to Corisia along with a letter that simply said, "Never". Corisia invaded Karnetia, starting the War of the Eight Years (1088-1096). Corisia initially took the advantage, winning important battles thanks in part to the leadership of Duke Frikyned, a famous Corisian military leader. He led an expedition early in the war to capture the Karnetian capital, Drižny, and came dangerously close, but was defeated in the Battle of Imorely (1091), captured, and executed. Karnetia then slowly advanced to the east. Finally, on 1096, Corisia collapsed; Karnetia besieged the capital city of Corisia, Hyreil. Thanks to its superior weaponry and tactics, the city was taken, and Corisia was annexed. King Insir was beheaded and his body burned, and the city was looted and set alight. King Julien II, son of Julien I, declared himself Emperor. The Karnetian Empire was born. Battle flag of the Karnetian Empire (15th Century)
Official name: Карнетискй Империй/Karnetisky Imperiy (Ancient Karnetian); Карнетская Империя/Karnetskaya Imperiya (Modern Karnetvorian); Karnetian Empire (Austral); Imperio Karnetiano (Spanish) Historical period: 1096–1520 Capital: Drižny Languages: Ancient Karnetian (official) Religion: Christianity/Catholicism Government: Absolute Monarchy/Empire Emperor:
Unlike the previous kingdom, where the king's power was limited somewhat by a Council, the powers of the Emperor were absolute, as it was believed they came from God himself. He made all laws, controlled the army, and made all government decisions. However, due to the Empire's extent, he could not control the entire country. To alleviate this problem, the Emperor relied on feudal lords and nobles to maintain stability and collect revenue; they swore loyalty to him, and he, in turn, gave them military support and funds. In order to keep the lords in check, the army was composed of highly trained, professional soldiers. That way, if a lord revolted, the army could be called in a moments notice to crush the uprising. This system, even if highly unstable, worked for five hundred years, as fear of the Emperor or of losing their privileges kept the Lords from revolting. This stability, plus a stable economy, military conquests, and the most powerful army and navy of its era, allowed the Empire to become the dominant power in the region for centuries. After conquering the small kingdoms of Karotiá and Fiseland (1097) and parts of Jetikya and present-day United Expanse (1154-1158 and 1170, respectively), territorial expansion stopped, something that alienated some nobles and members of the court. Eventually, in 1233, Emperor Vladimir II "The Unfortunate" was assassinated under the orders of one of his closest associates, Count Frederick of Endville, who declared himself Emperor. He was overthrown by the army, and has been known as Frederick the Imposter since. Vladimir's nephew, Ivan, was crowned Emperor Ivan I. Centuries later, it became known that Ivan had conspired with Frederick to topple Vladimir, but Frederick betrayed him in order to become Emperor himself. This event, now known as the "Nobles' Conspiracy" sparked a new era of territorial conquests. Map of the Karnetian Empire at its maximum territorial extent (1348)
The Empire hit its peak in the late 13th-early 14th Century, with the "Five Magnificent" Emperors. They were:

After Ivan II's death, a leadership crisis ensued, which resulted in a civil war between Ivan's brother Daniel Petrović, which claimed to be the legitimate successor to the throne, and a coalition of nobles led by Basil Ikonnikov, which said that the Petrović Dinasty had lost its legitimacy. In 1361, Daniel was defeated and exiled, and Basil was crowned Emperor Basil I. The Petrović Dinasty ended, and Basil's successors became known as the Basiliević Dinasty. After consolidating its rule, this dinasty tried to extend its borders even further. In 1403, the Empire, under the leadership of Emperor Mikhail III, invaded the bordering Kingdom of Noctenos. Despite initial victories, Noctenos resisted, and in the Battle of Cabur (1408) the Karnetian forces were surrounded by the Noctenosians and annihilated. The Noctenosian-Karnetian War lasted six years, and was a disastrous defeat for the Empire. It is universally agreed that this war is the beginning of the Empire's decline. The two centuries of prosperity were replaced by the Century of Decadence; territorial losses, military defeats, incompetent leaders, epidemics, and other factors accelerated the Empire's fall. In the early 16th Century, the Empire was on the brink of collapse.
History of Karnetvor
From Antiquity to the Present Day
Chapter III: The Five Kingdoms In the early 16th Century, the once mighty Karnetian Empire was on the brink of total collapse. As a result of a hundred years of military defeats, and natural disasters, the state was almost completely bankrupt, there was widespread famine, and both the army and the regional lords competed for power. Civil wars and uprisings became the norm, while attempts to centralize the state ended in failure. The final nail in the Empire's coffin came in 1475. The Kingdom of Sovonor, aware of Karnetia's weakness, attempted to establish trade outposts in the Empire's southern coast. Emperor Andrei II became aware of the attempts in 1476, and declared war. Mainly fought in the sea, the Karnetian-Sovonorian War demonstrated how backwards the Empire was in comparison to its neighbors; unlike Karnetia, Sovonor was a centralized state, meaning it could raise armies with less difficulty than its feudal opponent. Moreover, Sovonor had a significant technological advantage. Eventually, after a series of battles in the Karnetvorian Strait and the Jetikyan coast that completely destroyed the Karnetian navy, the Emperor sued for peace in 1480. The so-called Sovonorian Peace was a complete disaster for the Empire, who was forced to accept Sovonorian supremacy in the area and lost half of its territory (Jetikya, which recovered its independence), and to the Emperor, who was killed when a number of regional lords revolted against him following the defeat. A naval battle during the Karnetian-Sovonorian War (17th Century painting)
Eventually, as the army became almost nonexistent, the Emperor's authority was reduced to the capital and the surrounding lands, while the lords gradually took total control of their own territories. In January 1520, the heads of the most important noble families met in the small town of Granitsa (near present-day Karnetgrad) to divide the remaining lands in the Empire among themselves. The Molotović family took control of the city of Foreseas, founding the Kingdom of Molotov; the Harkenian family took the ancient city of Hyreil, founding the Kingdom of Hyreil; the Romanov family founded the Kingdom of Endville in the homonymous city, and the Milošević family established itself in Monachia, founding the Kingdom of Nitraen. The most important family, the van Heyden family, reserved the imperial capital, Drižny, for itself. Seeing his authority crumble, the last Emperor, Mikhail V, was forced to abdicate on June 1520. Theodor van Heyden, head of the van Heyden family, entered the city without resistance. Lacking a name for his new kingdom, Theodor reused the Empire's name, as it was located in the region where the ancient kingdom was born; Kingdom of Karnetia*. Thus, the Karnetian Empire ended, and the Five Kingdoms Era started. The Five Kingdoms
Official names:
Languages: Karnetvorian, Austral (18th Century onward) Religion: Catholicism Government: Absolute monarchy (until 19th Century), constitutional monarchy (from 19th Century) The other four kingdoms reacted strongly to Karnetia's use of the name of the old Kingdom and Empire, as they felt it was part of their own heritage. After two years, and seeing that King Theodor would not budge, the kingdoms of Endville and Hyreil, the ones who shared common borders with Karnetia, declared war on the latter. At the same time, Molotov and Nitraen fought alongside their common border. Both wars eventually intermingled, as each kingdom supported one side in the other conflict. The Ten-Years War, as it was eventually known, devastated the already ravaged land. Karnetia, supported by Molotov, achieved a hard-won victory, ensuring momentary dominance by both states, and temporary stability. The war also had the long-term effect of popularizing the name "Karnetvor" (in Karnetvorian: Карнетвор) for the entire territory; the name, which originated from the archaic terms Karnyet/Карньет, "eagle" and Voryet/Ворьет,"land" (roughly meaning, "Land of the Eagles"), was created after the name "Karnetia" became limited to the western region. Around this time, in 1530, a Karnetian warship captain by the name of Josef Ibisević petitioned the King for funds for a naval expedition to the east. At the time, only the lands in the Western, Antarctic, and Mid-Western Continents were known; Ibisevic assured the King of the existence of rich lands to the east; a popular legend at the time. He was initially refused, as the Ten-Years War had fully concluded yet. He kept petitioning,but his luck only changed after two years, when King Theodor reluctantly gave him funds, two ships, and a crew. Ibisevic set sail on January 10th, 1533. ![[Image: final_56e93092115a45.24192137.jpg?1458072039]](https://media.kartable.fr/uploads/finalImages/final_56e93092115a45.24192137.jpg?1458072039) Josef Ibisević, Karnetvor's most famous navigator
In his first voyage, Ibisević and his crew navigated the northern coast of the Mid-Western Continent, charting the coastal regions of the present-day Resentine Kingdom and Sporaltryus, until he stumbled with the island now named Petalia, in Tasternine. Due to adverse weather and lack of provisions, they were unable to land, and forced to return. Six months after the end of his first voyage, he returned, charting the entire archipelago, landing in the island now named Karniya, and returned to Karnetia using the southern route around the Mid-Western Continent. He tried to convince the king to establish a settlement in the islands, but as he wasn't interested in naval matters, he refused; King Theodor died of pneumonia in 1536. His successor, Leopold I, saw the advantages such a settlement would provide, and authorized its creation. In another expedition (1538), Ibisević negotiated with the Tasterninian natives the purchase of a portion of land in the island of Karniya. After a deal was reached, Ibisević claimed the land for Karnetia, and founded a settlement, called Petrovka after Peter the First, the first King of the Karnetians. In 1542, the settlement was in bad shape, because even if they were relatively self sufficient in terms of food, there was little support from the mainland. History changed in October 12th, when an unknown ship was sighted near Petrovka. Ibisević, the governor of the colony, ordered a pursuit. The ship was interceted by the settlers' own vessel, the Artemis (one of the ships Ibisevic had used in his voyages). To the Karnetians' surprise, the unknown vessel was manned by a people similar to them. Ubenknownst to the Karnetians, the unknown ship was the Sedunnic vessel Tapparad; led by Captain Linnerse, the vessel had been sent by Sedunnic king Ynnse II to find a continent to the west, unknown to them at the time. Despite not understanding each other, the Karnetians convinced the Sedunners to come with them to the settlement, where they exchanged gifts, ate together, and showed aspects of their culture to each other. The Sedunners spent a week in Petrovka, pledging to return some day after they left. A Karnetian by the name of Kristian Perišić left with them, in order to learn their language. This historic encounter, the first between civilizations of the Western and Eastern Continents, is unofficially conmemorated each year in Karnetvor as Friendship Day. Josef Ibisević (right) meets Captain Linnerse (left)
As promised, the Sedunners returned a year later. This time both sides sent envoys to Petrovka for a formal meeting. With Perišić as interpreter, both nations agreed to send representatives to each other's countries, and to establish trade and diplomatic relations. The Sedunners also met representatives of the other kingdoms on the following months. After these meetings, Petrovka's importance rose dramatically, as it became clear that it would become the link between both continents. Petrovka became one of the most important ports in the world. The Karnetian Government took complete control of the settlement, sidelining Ibisević, and started to build a powerful navy to protect it and conduct trade. By 1600, Karnetia had become a naval power; this alerted its neighbors, especially Molotov, the other regional power. It was a matter of time before it tried to test Karnetia's newfound strength. *= Out of convenience, it is called Second Kingdom of Karnetia by some historians.

History of Karnetvor
From Antiquity to the Present Day
Chapter IV: The Karnetian Golden Age In the year 1600, the Five Kingdoms of Karnetvor enjoyed an uneasy peace. Molotov had defeated a Hyrellian invasion (1560-1570), maintaining its hold on power. Its ally Karnetia, after founding the port of Petrovka in Tasternine, started building a navy to protect the settlement and conduct trade with its new trade partner, Sedunn, the Tasterninian kingdoms, and the Resentine Kingdom to the north. Molotov soon started to distrust the Karnetians, regarding its naval buildup as a threat. The last straw came in 1601; a Karnetian naval squadron took over a Sovonorian outpost on the Jetikyan coast, ejecting its garrison. Karnetia turned the outpost into a settlement, Vostokgrad, using it as a resupply station for trade ships coming from the south and for vessels which took the so-called "Southern Route" to Tasternine. Molotov complained that the area was in its sphere of influence, but Karnetia refused to cede the port or any of the outposts it had taken. Molotovian king John I then tried to take the settlement by force. He was repulsed, but the writing was on the wall. The Molotovian-Karnetian War had begun.
After trying (and failing) to take the settlement two more times, King John organized a naval expedition against Petrovka. It was a disaster almost from the beginning; as it was forced to take the Southern Route, the expedition was attacked by Karnetian ships near Vostokgrad, endured numerous Sovonorian attacks to the south of the continent, and suffered enormous losses in a storm. As a result of the losses, the remains of the fleet were annihilated by the Karnetian fleet in Tasternine. Most of the surviving crew members were either captured by the Karnetians or by the native Tasterninians; in the latter's case the survivors were sold into slavery. Even after this tremendous victory, the war put tremendous strain in Karnetia's economy. After seven years of continous attacks on its settlements, and an attempted invasion of Molotov, Karnetia was forced to sue for peace. Molotov's victory cost it dearly on the long run; with its army and navy destroyed and the country's economy ruined, Molotov was not able to capitalize on its gains, and was easy prey to a Hyrellian attack a decade later, never again recovering its lost prestige. Karnetia, on the other hand, managed to keep Vostokgrad, and years later, expanded its territory around the city, creating the colony of Novaya Karnetia (from the Karnetvorian, Новая Карнетя; "New Karnetia").

Defeat in the war against Molotov created discontent in Karnetia; as food prices soared, and famine struck the less developed areas of the country, the populace started to resent the ruling Van Heyden family, in part because of they being Australs, while most Karnetians were Karnetvorian speakers. However the Van Heydens managed to keep themselves in power for another 34 years. A destructive incursion in Petrovka by Tasterninian pirates in February 1638 caused outrage when the news arrived to the capital three months later; all the years of resentment resulted in angry mobs taking arms against the king, Charles II, The king was initially successful in containing the rebellion, but after three years, and with the rebel armies, now headed by nobleman Vladimir Pavlović, approaching, he was deposed by his brother, Peter II. He too failed to defeat them, and on July 24th, 1642, was captured by the rebels when they entered the capital, Drižny. He was beheaded, and his head thrown to the Pazzini river. Vladimir assumed the throne as Vladimir I, of the Pavlović Dynasty. In some way or another, the Pavlović royal family would stay in power for 346 years.
Vladimir's reign was short, only lasting four years. He was succeeded by his son, Alexander I. Alexander proved to be a more than capable statesman; after making diplomatic visits to various countries, including Sovonor, the Resentine Kingdom, and Sedunn, he implemented sweeping reforms in Karnetia, in order to improve the quality of life of its inhabitants and modernize the country. He successfully centralized the kingdom, eliminating any noble or aristocrat not willing to submit to a central authority. He modernized the administration, created universities, reformed the monetary system, and created new taxes in order to fund numerous public works. He also reorganized and modernized the army and the navy; Alexander wanted Karnetia to become a maritime power, which he achieved by creating the most powerful navy in the region.

Karnetia's military might was put to test when Endville, after years of rivalry, attacked the kingdom in 1654. The Karnetian-Endvillian War was a complete victory for Karnetia, who was able to counterattack and defeat Endville in two years. After defeating its nearby rivals, Karnetia turned its sights to the sea. After taking full control of the island of Karniya, where Petrovka is located, Karnetia founded settlements on the coast near Tasternine. As these posessions were a crucial link between East and West, they allowed Karnetia to dominate the trans-Pacific trade routes with Sedunn, although with fierce competition with Resentine, Sovonor, and the Sedunners themselves. This trade was mainly based on goods not found on the opposing continent, such as tea (introduced in Karnetvor by Erinoran traders in the 14th Century, and cultivated in Tasternine) and maize from the West, and potatoes and sugar from the East. As such, it was highly lucrative, and the maritime nations where the trade originated were in a constant state of rivalry with each other.
In order to bypass Resentinian influence, Karnetia created colonies and outposts along the Southern Route around the continent; the most important being the island of Baliish, seized in 1699. When Resentine increased its operations in the area, Karnetia turned to financing privateers and pirates to attack rival ships, especially Resentinian ships. This tactic proved to be a double-edged sword; when the government of Karnetia stopped paying, the pirates started attacking Karnetian shipping as well. There were also attempts to enlarge Novaya Karnetia; this convinced the other kingdoms to found their own colonies to the south, popularly known as "the Southern Territories/Lands".
Territories under Karnetian control in the 18th Century. Light blue are territories ceded or abandoned after 1758. Purple is the island of Baliish, lost to Resentine in 1750.
Alexander I died in 1702, being succeeded by his son, Nicholas I; he defeated a declining Sovonor in 1710-1711, obtaining a guarantee of free passage for Karnetian shipping. His daughter, Elizabeth, crowned in 1721, she gained territory from Nitraen in 1725, and renovated the city of Drižny, turning it into a worldwide center for culture and the arts. However, her reign was marked by the disastrous Resentino-Karnetian War (1745-1750); following decades of continous attacks on Resentinian shipping by Karnetian sponsored pirates, Resentinian king Alexandras I ordered the Resentinian navy to stop any Karnetian vessel making the voyage to the east through the Northern Route. Dozens of ships were detained and their cargo seized, and dozens more were sunk when their crews refused to surrender. Infuriated, Queen Elizabeth declared war. After five years of continous naval warfare in the Strait and the Tasternine Sea, and land battles in Novaya Karnetia, Baliish, and the Karnetian colonies in the Antarctic and the Mid-Western mainland, Karnetia surrendered, being unable to defend all of its possessions at once. Karnetia was forced to cede Baliish and its Antarctic settlements (the latter were later returned), and grant Resentine certain concessions, such as the right to use Karnetian ports and a guarantee to stop its attacks against Resentinian shipping. In return, Resentine stopped seizing Karnetian ships in its waters. Queen Elizabeth managed to survive the debacle, but fell into a deep depression as a result of the defeat. She became a recluse, and died a year after the end of the war, either killing herself by drinking poison or by an alcohol overdose. She was succeeded by her son, Peter III.
The century between 1646 and 1750 is known as "the Golden Century", as it gave Karnetia levels of prosperity not seen since the 14th Century. The continous flow of goods from the East, while giving enormous wealth to Karnetia, also benefited the other kingdoms. As a result, the arts, such as literature, painting, and architecture flourished during this period, with Peach Creek being host to hundreds of influential artists. Science also progressed, with the creation of the Royal University of Drižny , and the government sponsored Royal Academy of Sciences.

By the 1750's a newly organized Kingdom of Jetikya, eager to recover the territory it had lost to the Karnetvorian kingdoms, started preparing for war. The kingdoms were unaware, each focusing on dominating the other. They were taken by surprise when Jetikya invaded the colonies in 1753.
