Duchy Changes Allegiance   (8 days, 16 hours ago)
message to Everyone on Beluaterra
the Province of Melhed has changed its allegiance with all its regions to the realm of Ar Agyr. The duchy used to belong to Melhed.

Carmel has changed its allegiance with all its regions to the realm of Nothoi. The duchy used to belong to Fronen.

Duchy Changes Allegiance   (just in)

Sypher has changed its allegiance with all its regions to the realm of Ar Agyr. The duchy used to belong to Fronen.

So... thats 2 realms gone, and AA just jumped from 6-7 regions to 16 regions (would have been 18 if Thal didnt maange to take 2 regions from Melhed before they switched side).

Its still very hard to see where this is going :)

Holy...

Chaoooos. But yeah, AA grew substantially, so did Nothoi and from the ashes of 4 realms rise two big ones with a lot more nobles. Certainly not a bad thing for overall conversational fun on BT. :)

In fairness, Vitus can take all the credit for Fronen dissolving. Making peace with the north? Fair enough. Unilaterally changing the government system to make all positions appointed by the ruler without even warning people first? Yeah, that'll piss people off and make them leave.

Or, you know, revolt?

If the people had cared for the realm, they wouldn't have let that destroy it. Protests would have surely worked, though rebellion might have as well. None of the changes he did was hard to undo.

I think the basic problem was that one region lord defected and then that then triggered a stampede as that became the obvious action rather than protesting or rebelling.

Yes, Fronen was in a very bad way, but it was Vitus who pushed it over the edge.

It was really odd. I think only two lords contacted me about the move, the rest came following them.

Some of them might return to Fronen after the reformation.


Now comes one question: Will Thalmarkin continue to support Fronen is Immanuel is elected ruler?

Thalmarkin should just stomp Fronen. A realm who cares so little to exist does not deserve to continue existing.

I'm actually thinking of trying an experiment as a city state realm - buying food on the market with no army to speak of but a massive number of militia. I don't know how it would work out long term but it could be interesting to try out to see what it's like.

Spent a few weeks in a city-state realm on EC. Incredibly boring.

Yeah, you really wouldn't have anyone to talk to. Except people who really don't care to talk to you, because they have more important people to talk to. Like their own realm mates.

Thats a tricky one indeed! No idea and I suppose it depends on how things turn out. Right now I strongly doubt there would be any peace between us, but that may depend on AA as much as us.

I would say that most Thalmarkians (though even more so Ar Agyrians) would be extremely happy to kill anything Immanuel touches. But well, one thing at a time! We have a new behemoth to punch!

Eh this war may prove unworkable if the entire population of every region shows up to fight after less than a day of looting.
