The '''Duchy of Yugstran''' was one of the two major kingdoms fighting during the [[Drevstran#History|Long Ikonkivoyra]]. Following the murder of Havar in 1020, duke [[Yarvos]] of Yugstran became the de-facto leader of the {{wp|iconodulism|iconodudlist}} resistance against the [[Sevromark]]. Instead of proclaiming himself King, like his rival [[Sevromark|Karro]] did, Yarvos instead upgraded his realm to a Duchy for both political and ideological reasons.
[[Education in the Mutul|Highschool and College]] level Pitz is also extremely popular in the Mutul.
 
Before the Ikonkivoyra, Yugstran was considered to be a second-tier territory inside the [[Kingdom of the Drev]], overshadowed by the [[Duchy of Vizstran]] which was the real power on the right side of the Drev river, it's dukes being the real leaders of the Iconodulists Orthodoxs.
 
The history of Yugstran is traditionaly divided in three era: the Ikonkivoyra, the Veliko-Azari vasselage, and the Triple-Crown. It was dissolved in 1919 with the abolition of the monarchy.

The first professional Pitz players appeared around 1400 CE as part of the [[Ilok'tab Dynasty]] legal system.

In the 15th century, as Pitz had shifted from an individual to a team sport, reforms to the justice system allowed legal parties to call upon champions to represent them. Great Houses began to gather "stables" of professional players to defend the family-members honor in and out of trials.

During the Ikonkivoyra, the Grand Duchy was in a state of war against the [[Sevromark]] and was slowly pushed eastward by the latter, losing its original lands south of the Drev and in the Yug and Viz bassins, but gaining the control of the eastern coast after a serie of successful campaigns. Despite its rather large armies and the existence of a permanent tax, the administrative reliance on feudal lords and the weakness of the central government permanently shaken by court intrigues left the Duchy struggling to survive, owning its successes to an handful of generals acting as independent rivals of the Court and thus were as much dangers for the Dukes as they were for their ennemies. Yugstran won the war only through the help of the [[Ludvosiya|Kingdom of Azarija]] which intervened in their favour in exchange of the Duke's submission. Under this agreement, the Duchy reached its maximal extend, recovering all of its lost territories and gaining some more, and its Duke also gained the title of "Regent of Drevstran" from their new master. When Azarija was conquered by [[Velikoslavia]] in the 16th century, the duchy was integrated into the empire as well giving it direct access to Periclean Sea.
 
===Veliko-Azari Vasselage===
 
===Succession War===
 
As the domination of Velikoslavia over its southernmost principality weakened, the Duchy and its {{wp|Viceroy|Ban}} of Drevstran became a point of friction between the [[Lushyodorstag]] and the Emperor. This culminated in 1690 with the Duke's death and the succession war fought by the two main claimants : [[Lushyodorstag|Farza IV]] and [[Yaropolik]]. The death of Yaropolik at the [[battle of Angrast]] in 1694 and the convertion of Farza IV to the {{wp|Eastern Orthodox Church|Orthodox Church}} marked the start of a personal union between the Lushyodorstag and Yugstran known as the [[Triple Crown]].  
 
==Culture and economy==
 
The early culture of Yugstran was characterized by a strong reaction to {{wp|iconoclasm}} with a rapid development of {{wp|Icon}}s and of the spread of {{wp|relic}}s. The lack of control over the Drev river also led to the isolation of the Grand Duchy until its conquest of the eastern coast.
 
By the time Yugstran became part of Azarija and then Velikoslavia, it had become an essentially marine state, turned toward the Periclean. It had developped a strong icon-making religious culture based on the [[Aletheic Church|Aletheic faith]]. It retained its own Archpresbytership under the larger [[Velikoslavia|Velik Communion]], a religious union that remain to this day despite the adoption by Archpresbytership of the Drev of the Oecumenic Bible under the [[Triple-Crown]].

History

The first professional Pitz players appeared around 1400 CE as part of the Ilok'tab Dynasty legal system. While it had always been possible for Lords accused of wrongdoing to challenge the other party in a Pitz game as a form of Trial by ordeal, it had been impossible for either party to substitute themselves and they had to play through the game. In the 15th century, as Pitz had shifted from an individual to a team sport, reforms to the justice system allowed legal parties to call upon champions to represent them. Great Houses began to gather "stables" of professional players to defend the family-members honor in and out of trials.

Highschool Pitz

The Mutul' 6144 secondary schools, be they part of the Chok Nahob or Nawob cursus, are grouped in divisions of four. Teams in a division face one another twice over six weeks. The team with the highest winrate is crowned champion of the division and goes to the next stage, where it face the winners of three other local divisions, generally the geographically closest ones. There are 1536 rank 1 divisions, then 384 rank 2, 96 rank 3, 24 rank 4, and finally 6 rank 5 divisions, called Circuits, of four teams each. After 30 weeks, the six Circuits champions face each others in a single-eliminations play-offs: the two teams with the highest winrate skip the first round and get a rest week before facing the two first round's winners in the semi-finales. The week 33 finale, called the Youth Ball, is consistently in the Mutul' top 5 Most Watched sport event of the year.
