History[]
Kingdom of Alailë[]
Alailë was a modern human nation of Aels that originated after The Cataclysms of the 2675 a.a.H, being the Kingdom of Alailë (2721-2991 a.a.H) founded at the 2721 a.a.H, under the King Louis I of Alailë. The Alailë kingdom will rise in western Aels during the next centuries, quickly expanding the population as it was benefited by first the agrarian revolution, which meant as well an expansion of their economy and interests, beginning to conform a colonial empire, while as well they consolidated their national boundaries.
1st Republic of Alailë[]
Upon pressure of the rising burgoise groups and to avoid a revolution, during the decade of the 2980's, the Alailë monarchy will undergo a serie of reforms to become a constitutional monarchy, and later, will become the 1st Republic of Alailë (2991-3015 a.a.H), as the role of the monarch was reduced to more of a public role than as ruler of the nation.
During the Joaquintopian Wars (2995-3014 a.a.H), Alailë will be one of the main contendors in Aels against the Sargonic Joaquintopian Empire, being a key nation in the conformation of all the sucessive continental alliances against the Joaquintopian house of Joaquin I.
1st Empire of Alailë[]
After the Joaquintopian wars, that meant further consolidation of Aläile both in their continental possetions and overseas, being claimed the 1st Empire of Alailë (3015-3038 a.a.H), in which once more time the king -now converted as emperor- raise in his political role, as he had been granted the government over the colonies and "Imperial Provinces" annexed during the Joaquintopian wars, territories which the Emperor Charles III used to push his agenda within the republican, metropolitan government. This situation will lead to a serie of violent protests, civilian unrest and rebelions, which meant a severe reform of the government, the deposition of Charles III, asuming Louis Charles I a decorative throne, with all the power left in hands of the Imperial Ministers: this will be called the 2nd Empire of Alailë (3038-3076 a.a.H).
2nd Empire of Alailë[]
The Second Empire of Alailë (3038-3076 a.a.H) will be the rule of Louis Charles I, a weak emperor wich will be a puppet of the Imperial Cabinet in their policies. This Empire will end with the perceived disaster of the unfavorable end of the Tri-Fecta War (3066-3076) to the interests of Alailë due the advances of the Calintropian Empire in Central Aels after the annexion of the Kalif Confederation, a public scandal was staged, framing Emperor Louis Charles I, who resigned.
2nd Republic of Alailë[]
With his resign, it will end the monarchy in Alailë during the 2nd Republic of Alailë (3076-3149). The 2nd Republic, due their regional interests in Aels and as well seeking to extend their borders, entered in an Alliance with the Tork Empire of Cretor, alliance which will drag them eventually to the Anglasecuarnian Wars (3139-3155) or known as well as the First World War of Aiers. Alailë will fight in several fronts a series of bloody campaigns, that weakened not only their armies, but the moral of their forces, their economy and the trust of their people in their government.
And so, during the last Badheen campaign of summer of 3149 a.a.H, the enemies of Alailë will be able to advance up to the capitol: Phalais. With the government on the run, and without credibility to form a government in exile in other regions of Alailë or in foreign lands, many Alailë even cheered as the Badheen Prince, Ignacio Rogel-Gastronomique, proclaimed the union of Badheen and Alailë on the Gastronomic Empire (3149-3237 a.a.H).
Gastronomic Empire[]
In the palace of Summer Palace of Verrais, Prince Ignacio Rogel-Gastronomique of Badheen will become Emperor Ignacio I.
the Gastronomic Empire, known as well as the Ignacian Empire or simply as the IG was an Empire of Aiers, that existed between 3149 and 3237 a.a.H.
The Gastronomic Empire was ruled by three sucessive emperors of the Rogel-Gastronomique dinasty, Ignacio I, Prince of Badheen (3149-3189), Ignacio II (3189-3214) and Ignacio III (3214-3224), and after the Ignacian Sucession War (3224-3226) with an interim government, by Ignacio IV (3226-3237). Because of the ruling emperors, the empire was called the Ignacian Empire.
During their imperialist rule, they will seek a quick expansion by all means of their controlled territories, beginning what will be known as the Ignacian Wars (3150-3216 a.a.H): a serie of wars fought between the Gastronomic Empire, under the rule of the Ignacios, first against the Tork Empire of Cretor, and then, against the sucessor of Cretor, the Republic of Bazikstan and their allies, shifting the alliances frecuently during the War, while they began a policy of colonial expansion in Zarhuy, Hieyoks and to a minor degree, Ushaenor.
So, they will fight the War of Guaderia, the Zarhuycan Wars, War of Torkia, First Wilzcroiser War, War of Ziria, Wars of Mercania, the Binese Campaigns, Degoland Wars, the Ignacian Sucession War, Tunecern War, Second Wilzcroiser War and the War of Kagastan, among other conflicts.
However, by the 3224 a.a.H, after the dead of Emperor Ignacio III, chaos ensued as he had no clear sucessors to the impearial throne, which was claimed by some cousins, sons of the deposed Crown Prince Lois and the exiled brothers. More claimed the throne, an interim government was created and the empire fell to chaos for two years, until the 3226 a.a.H, when will be crowned Ignacio IV as emperor of the IG.
During the war, many of the imperial territories rebelled, claiming their independence, and would be an important part of the rule of Ignacio IV the attemps to bring back the empire to his former glory, making it weaker and covered in debts.
3rd Republic of Alailë[]
The 3437 a.a.H the IG will finally dissapear. As in Alailë was claimed the 3rd Republic of Alailë, parts of the former principalty of Badheen joined Cyrvia. Many territories who during the sucession war became independent or secessionate, where oficially recogniced as independent -however, others will be keep in the colonial empire, beginning a serie of small colonial wars for the 3rd Republic of Alailë-.
The 3rd Republic will take a minor part of the Tris Tigris-Hidraulic War -or second world war of Aiers- (3250-3256), and later will enter in the MW Alliance in the 3263, reason why Alailë will take part of the MW-UVA War (3276-3280) -Third world war of Aiers- and the Pentarchy War (3295-3300) -Fourth World War of Aiers-.
4th Republic of Alailë[]
With the defeat of the MW in the Pentarchy War and the dissolution of the alliance, Alailë will have to demilitarize their border with Ruhenia and see some areas and ports of the country occupied, having to pay part of the war reparations. This made a sense of resentment grow among the Alailë, which will bring the shortlived [[Ignacian Kingdom of Alailë (3306-3307) as was crowned the elder Ignacio IV as king of Aläile: shortlived nationalistic movement, involved Alailë in two brief but violent wars (the Aelian War and the Second Ze-Berra War), which will quickly deplete the old Ignacian emperor political capital, returning the 4th Republic of Alailë (3308-3336 a.a.H), republic that will collapse with the apocaliptical end of the Fifth World War of Aiers (3330-3336 a.a.H).
5th Republic of Alailë[]
It wouldn't be until the 3345, about almost 9 years, that will raise again in the region of Alailë a national government, the 5th Republic of Alailë (3345-3356), which was really a military regime under a Military Junta that forced into a single nation many of the small local and regional governments that had risen in former Alailë.
6th Republic of Alailë[]
After a normalization of the situation -and joining the NMW pact, later OPAC, it will come a democratic process of transition to a new civilian government from the military junta, the 6th Republic of Alailë (3356-3403), that will be involved on the OPAC-URCC War (3365-3373 a.a.H) or Sixth World War of Aiers. During this war, the 6th Republic of Alaile will enter in a joint government with the JPM: The Upperlands, Degoland and Juanpableiro
2nd Gastronomic Empire[]
At the 3403 a.a.H, 166 years after the end of the IG, descendants of the Rogel-Gastronomique dinasty will seize the power in Alailë, preying on the malcontent of the population to a republic that was seen as old, corrupt and that no longer represented it's people, but the foreign interests of the JPM. Doing triumphal march, there will be conformated neo-Ignacian empire or 2nd Gastronomic Empire under Emperor Ignacio V. As in the past, with previous imperials attempts of the Ignacian dinasty, soon the new Gastronomic Empire will found itself involved in expansionist conflicts: The Ignacian War (3409-3411), which will set the conformation of an Ignacian Alliance (Igal) in western Aels.
