Kaszubya (/Ka-shU-bya/ in English), also known as Kashubia is a sovereign nation in central-coastal Kylaris. It is bordered by Vedmed to the north; Amathia to the east; Tengaria to the south, and Yavorstrana to the west. Kashubia's capital and largest city, Kralovice, is situated on the eastern shores of Lake Min. Though possessing a unique language and culture, Kashubia was a part of the Empire of Tengaria until its fall following the Great War (Kylaris), after which Kashubia gained its independence. It has a population of 14.8 billion, and an economy centered around agriculture, manufacturing, and mining.

History

Early History

Settlement in the area called Kashubia for the last 1,000 years started by the end of the Glacial Stage, some 13,000 years ago. Archeological traces have been found of various cultures during the Stone and Bronze Age, Baltic peoples, Germanic peoples during the Iron Age and, in the Dark Ages, West Slavic tribes and Vikings. Starting in the 10th century, early Kashubian rulers united the region.

Kingdom of Kashubia

The basis for the development of a Kashubian state was laid by the XXX dynasty, which had been preeminent since the 10th century. The conversion of Duke Mieszko I to Christianity paved the way for Kashubia to become a member of the family of Orthodox kingdoms. In 1000, the Tengarian Empire officially recognized Kashubia as a sovereign duchy. In 1025, Duke Vaclav I the Brave was crowned King of Kashubia, marking the starting date for a Kashubian Kingdom, though for long years the Poles were ruled not by Kings but by Dukes.

The King ruled the country in his own responsibility but was expected to respect traditional customs of the people. The succession to the rule was not legally restricted by primogeniture. All sons of the King or Duke had the same rights of inheritance, and the one that in some way proved the strongest succeeded to the throne.

Duke Stefan III, who reigned from 1102 to 1138, tried to end the repeated struggles between various claimants by setting the government of Kashubia on a more formal footing. In the Testament of Stefan III, he divided his lands into five Duchies and distributed them among his sons, and promised the Burghers and landowning nobles of the regions special privliges. This document is widely considered to be the world's first constitution.

To ensure unity, he established the consultation agreement, which stated that the king would be elected from the sons of the King by the Estates of the realm (Clergy, burghers, and nobility, respectively). To this end, it was decided that the landing of royal sons would be done only during succession, and would give authority over a predetirmined split of the 'Korunapřistane', or "Crownlands."

While the senorial part almost always fell to that member of the Dynasty that happened to be senior, the other four Duchies were inherited in the usual way among the descendants of the King's sons. These provisions were soon broken, however, with the various Dukes trying to gain the position of King for themselves. The provisions, meant to ensure unity fragmented the country even further and resulted in a decline of monarchical power.

Iconoclast Wars

Starting around 1385, priest and scholar Hynek Kapil denounced what he judged as the corruption of the Orthodox Church. Most controversially, Kapil declared that the worship of icons against the will of God, and that man should worship God alone, and not images or iconography of him. His preaching was widely heeded in Kashubia, and provoked suppression by the church, which had declared many of Kapil's ideas heretical.

In , Ecumenical Patriarch Alexander III convened a cardinal council to resolve other religious controversies. Kapil went to the Council, under a safe-conduct from Alexander, but was imprisoned, tried, and burned alive as a heretic on 6 July 1408. This greatly enraged the nobility and local population of Kashubia, who were largely in favor of church reform, and led the King of Kashubia, Vaclav I, to form an alliance with Ravnia. Following almost 20 years of extremely tense relations and minor religious conflict, at Alexander III's request, the Duchy of Pavatria and the Empire of Tengaria declared war on the Kingdom of Ravnia and the Realm of Thorns in 1409, aiming to restore the original Episemialist Church to absolute authority in Western Euclea. They were supported by other minor states.

Final Stand of Valcav V, by Simon Janecek

Disorder broke out in various parts of Kashubia, and drove many priests from their parishes, famously by throwing them from windows. Almost from the beginning the Kapilites divided into two main groups, though many minor divisions also arose among them. Under the leadership of Vaclav V, the Kashubians were initially successful at throwing back the Tengarian invaders. This success continued until 1412 with the death of Vaclav V and the end of the Sedlacek dynasty in battle. Following his death, Kashubia was overrun and occupied by Tengaria, who put a relative of the Tengarian monarch on the throne of Kashubia.

As Part of the Tengarian Empire

Upon the death of Vaclav V, the Kashubian estates elected (under duress) the Tengarian prince and heir-apparent XXX as king. In 1435, upon the death of the Tengarian King, XXX was crowned King of Tengaria, which he made his primary title. From then on, Kashubia was relegated as a nominal part of the Tengarian Empire.

Black Mountains

Cloud-covered slopes of the Black Mountains in northern Kaszuby.

The Black Mountains dominate Kaszuby's northern and western frontiers. The mountains, named for the slate and obsidian that dominate their slopes, are both naturally hazardous and resource rich. The primary range forms an arc throughout Central and southeastern Patrium. Roughly 1,500 km (932 mi) long, the range stretches from the XXX, to Kaszuby's eastern frontier, and down to the southern Patriumonic coast. The highest range within the Carpathians is known as the Tatra mountains in northern Kaszuby, where the highest peaks exceed 2,600 m (8,530 ft).
