The Medieval Era

The First LucaMiclean Great War

Its year 1000 wich started with the First LucaMiclean-Pallesi war.The LucaMiclean Empire, once a thriving,strong empire, is on the verge of collapse. The war began in year 1000, when Pallesi united tribes attaked LucaMiclean trade routes. The Empire attaked and plundered the regions near the border, and killed about 3.400 people, but its defeated by an inferior pallesi army. Huliminated, Emperor Marian demanded a new succesful campain, wich never came. In battle of Gyòr, the Pallesi army defeated and killed more than 13.500 lucans. The LucaMiclean Empire lost even more land with the sourthen provincies having declared independence and because of an attack by a The Order of the Ivory Lady in 1042. About 53.000 soilders, knights and archers attaked LucaMiclea from the north using vastly superior weapons. In the south many warlords just split away and left the empire. Emperor Marian had a hearth attack and soon died in 1054. His son Marian the II took power at 21 y.o. and tried to reasemble the remaints of the Empire. He defeated the warlord of Napoca in battle of Independența. He also started building the fort from Miclești but got defeated by Palles in battle of Băbești. The Order also defeated him in battle of Bobâlna, where he died. It was 1104. The Empore looked defeated. The Order and the Pallesi tribesmen united on the Valea Groșilor and started marching towards the capital defended by a 17 y.o Emperor. Being at its lowest, the Empire menaged to gather an army of 45.000 soilders to try and take on the 80.000 men enemy army. They had no chance. The Emperor, hovewer, was a smart strategist. He reorganised the army and placed his best men on the flanks to beat the inferior Palesi tribesmen. In a battle near Podești, the LucaMiclean army flanked the core of the enemy army and forced them to retreat, saving the Empire. The Emperor, defeated the Order causing it a major blow, but all this was only temporary. The Ivory Order was in the north, still occuping those lands. They started building a large amount of fortresses to gain a stronger grip on the lands. The Palessi tribe leader, alongside some other chefs reorganised the tribe union, using the rich lands they took from LucaMiclea and proclaimed the Palessi Kingdom in 1156. They took advantage of the trade rutes in south LucaMiclea to support its reorganisation and make a straonger army. In this time, the very popular Emperor, Marian II has lead an campain to defeat the sourthern warlords led by Gheorghe Măcănău’. After stabilizing those lands, Emperor Marian tried to revive the scythian trade, but LucaMiclea needed a lot of time to rebuild itself. LucaMiclea and Pallesi started an fierce competition for trade dominance, ignoring The Order, wich was growing in strenght. They used the hilly terrain to create some strong fortifications, and assure its survival over centuries.

The Second LucaMiclean Great War The War Marian II won the First LucaMiclean Great War, and revived the scythian trade, leading to a reafirmation of the LucaMiclean trade and economy. Pallesi is growing in strenght, but they are no match to the LucaMiclean Empire. After the death of the old Emperor his son, Marian III, makes an army of 78.000 soilders and attackes Palles. The pallesi king is killed in battle, and the king Marian III takes back the sourthen trade routes, getting even richer. He also kidnaps about 3.000 people and uses them as cheap workforce. Palles uses the last bits of money to expand in south, but even this way, they are powerless. Marian prepares himself, conscripting more and more people, and with an army of 100.000 people attaks The Order of the Ivory Lady. The Order is suprised by the attack and retreats in their forts. Having a total of 34.000 soilders, 12.000 archers and 5.600 knights, their army is technologically superior, but numerically inferior. On top of this, their forces are spreaded all across the land, in various forts. They seem powerless. However, some lords menage to sneak away from the forts and run to Palles, where they ask for help. A pallesi attack forces the Emperor to march toward south, and buys The Order some time. The Pallesi Army marches and clashes with the LucaMiclean one, once again getting defeated. The Order attacks Marian's army and gets defeated aswell. Many of the sourthen forts are demolished and both The Order and Palles are forced to pay a tribute. LucaMiclea wins the second Great LucaMiclean War aswell. The Aftermath The war might seem a LucaMiclean victory, but its not a decisive one. Marian III couldn't annex The Order as wanted because of the Pallesi intervention. In The Scythian Gulf, LucaMiclea faces problems with the trade. This led to The Scythian War...

The Sythian Gulf War Prologue The rise of the LucaMiclean Empire was facilitated by trading with the remains of the South Ramanian Empire and theany citystates that apeared after its fall. The trade had stopped almost completely after the Second LucaMiclean War, so Emperor Gabriel The Swimmer decided to conquer the citystates and trade with the free locals. The War After LucaMiclea won the second Great LucaMiclean War, the Emperor died in 1256 and such the throne was taken by Emperor Mihai the Weak. The Emperor did nothing and was killed two years later. In 1258 Emperor Gabriel The Swimmer took over. He began building a large fleet and in 1270 prepared for an invasion of the citystates in the Scythian Gulf. His fleet had 23 small boats, 12 medium boats and 3 big boats and a total of 45.670 soilders. He started by targeting the north cities: Haguanau, Liseux, Cîteaux and Dijon were all conquered and burned down. On their place the Emperor placed Hagagău, Lisa, Citeo and Donjon. He continued marching south, while the fleet brought intelligence supplies and fought on water. He burned down Gela, Rossano, Balssano, Cassoria and Apri. After sending all the goods and slaves back to LucaMiclea, renamed the cities into Gâl, Rosa, Balsam, Casă and Aprilie he realised that the other cities on the east coast made a massive coalition and took the fleet full of goods by surprise. The LucaMiclean fleet was destroyed leaving the Emperor behind. The Emperor fought a battle near Aprilie/Apri and got killed there in 1277. The Aftermath Back in LucaMiclea, there was chaos. All three regional powers (The Order Palles and LucaMiclea) deciding the fate of the region were either too weak, too poor or leaderless, so an crisis began in full swing. In LucaMiclea, family of Cașeiu, Family of Lucarest and Family of Urișor were battling, Palles was facing a financial crists and devalorization of the past 'gold rial' while The Order was having little to no soilders.

The Third LucaMiclean Great War Background With the Empire being decisively defeated in the Scythian Gulf, The Order just signed a mutual non-agression pact with Palles. The War The Order attaked with 34.500 soilder, 12.340 archers and 5.000 knigts the northern lands. They declared war in 1278. After marched towards east, and took the Marasti Castle, and came close to Lucarest. The Great Houses did nothing to stop them as they were too busy fighting for power in between themselfs. The ruling house had three heirs, the oldest being 7 years old. Eventually, Lord Marian IX became Lord Protector of LucaMiclea in 1289, when The Order was already in Lucarest for 10 years now, and continued to occupy the sourthern provinces, plundering the region, dealing big economic damage. The Lord Protector retreated with the Imperial Family (The 15 y.o. Emperor, his 12 y.o. wife and their heir, the Emperor's brother. The first brother was dead) in Caseiu, at the remaints of The Great Library, where they formed the resistance. As such, he menaged to form a pretty strong army and clashed with The Order in 1291. However LucaMiclea was short of money, while the order, getting lots of donations, and plindering the LucaMiclean riches was bathing in money. Eventualy, the war faded out slowly, but surely and The Order kept the lands they have conquered. LucaMiclea had other problems tho. The Aftermath The Order gained the upper hand in the third LucaMiclean war, and the next wars will be fought for its survival. LucaMiclea and Palles were in full rebuilding, and they became stronger and stronger, but will they be able to fight the mighty Order of The Ivory Lady?

Cuisine

One of the most common meals is the mămăligă, the precursor of polenta, served on its own or as an accompaniment. Pork is the main meat used in LucaMiclean cuisine, but also beef is consumed and a good lamb or fish dish is never to be refused.

Before Christmas, on December 20 (Ignat's Day or Ignatul in Lucan), a pig is traditionally sacrificed by every rural family. A variety of foods for Christmas are prepared from the slaughtered pig, such as:

Cârnați – garlicky pork sausages, which may be smoked or dry-cured; Lebăr – an emulsified sausage based on liver with the consistency of the filling ranging from fine (pâté) to coarse; Sângerete (black pudding) – an emulsified sausage obtained from a mixture of pig's blood with fat and meat, breadcrumbs or other grains, and spices; Tobă (head cheese) – based on pig's feet, ears, and meat from the head suspended in aspic and stuffed in the pig's stomach; Tochitură – a stew made with pork, smoked and fresh sausage simmered in a tomato sauce and served with mămăligă and wine ("so that the pork can swim"). There are many variations of this stew throughout LucaMiclea, with some versions combining different meats, including chicken, lamb, beef, pork and sometimes even offal; Pomana porcului—pan-fried cubed pork served right after the pig's sacrifice to thank the relatives and friends who helped with the process; Piftie/răcitură – inferior parts of the pig, mainly the tail, feet, and ears, spiced with garlic and served in aspic; Jumări – dried pork remaining from rendering of the fat and tumbled through various spices The Christmas meal is sweetened with the traditional cozonac, a sweet bread made with nuts, poppy seeds, or rahat At Easter, lamb is served: the main dishes are borș de miel (lamb sour soup), roast lamb, and drob de miel – a LucaMiclean-style lamb haggis made from minced offal (heart, liver, lungs), lamb meat and spring onions with spices, wrapped in a caul and roasted. The traditional Easter cake is pască, a pie made from yeast dough with a sweet cottage cheese filling at the center.

LucaMiclean pancakes, called clătite, are thin and can be prepared with savory or sweet fillings: ground meat, cheese, or jam. Different recipes are prepared depending on the season or the occasion.

Wine is the preferred drink, and LucaMiclean wine has a tradition of over three millennia. LucaMiclea produces a wide selection of domestic varieties (Fetească, Grasă, Tămâioasă, Busuioacă, and Băbească), as well as varieties from across the world. Beer is also highly regarded, generally blonde pilsener beer. There are also LucaMiclean breweries with a long tradition.

These are operated by large corporations such as SLM, or SDNLM (societatea drumurilor nationale LucaMiclene). The railroads are rather rare, as until '50 LucaMiclea was primitive and underdeveloped, having only about 3000 km of railroad connecting essential points. The railroads are poorly operated due to coruption and inssuficent funding. The metro system is very developed, being present in all big cities. LucaMiclea has a total of 15 ports: Râmincu Sărat, Segarcea, Turnu Măgurele, Anina North, Anina South, Daneți, Moldova Nouă, Mărcilele, Șomcut, Lădești, Tâmna, Vânju Mare,Țicleni, Potcoava, Baia de Aramă.

In 2019, the LucaMiclean primary energy supply included around 56% oil, 12% coal and 20% natural gas. These fossil fuels contribute to LucaMiclean air pollution though its below average greenhouse gas emissions. LucaMiclea imports more than fifty per cent of its natural gas used, and thirty per cent of coal. The country's electricity is generated mainly from oil, gas and nuclear energy; with a small but growing amount from wind, solar and geothermal. Three nuclear power plants are also under construction, and one is already working. Despite this, from 1990 to 2019, carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fuel combustion rose from 100 megatonnes (Mt) to 290 Mt. Energy policy is to secure national energy supply and reduce fossil fuel imports, which accounted for over 12% of the cost of the LucaMiclean imports in 2019. This also includes using energy efficiently. As of 2019, a lot research has been done on the policies LucaMiclea uses to reduce energy poverty, which also include some subsidies for home heating and electricity use. Corruption stands in front of the further, rapid development of the nuclear powerplants, as the one at Cășeiu.
