Hesperia, officially the Kingdom of Hesperia is a fledgling sovereign state located in Western Rohane. Occupying 2,134,113 km2 of land, the country is mostly and predominantly flat and luscious, with plains in the north and west and low hills in the east. It is border by Ryurik Rossiya in the eest. The country is known for having high religious tolerance, as well as being one of the first countries to outlaw slavery. The country is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy, headed by Jacques II, and Prime Minister Jean Lafayette. It holds the Halkeginian Sea as an essential medium for trade, and has excellent relations with Vozh.

The country's capital is Malleux, which is also the country's largest city. With a population of 31 million, the country is one of the largest countries in the world. It has intense relations with its neighbours across the Halkeginian Sea, such as Vozh, however the 20th century brought a strain of relations causing the relationship between Atmora and Hesperia to dwindle.

Etymology

The name Hesperia is widely believed to spur from the Classical Auric"Hespericum", for the West as it was conquered by the Auric Empire in 67 BCE. By the time of the Visigothic invasion in the 7th century, said name was also used for the whole region spanning the Halkeginian Sea. Circumnavigators of Eastern Aurica declared it Hesperium and Hesperie.

By the 1650s, during the advent of Early Modern Hesperic, the country was unanimously known as Hesperie.

History

Before 2700 BC, the linguistic and cultural distribution in Hesperia is uncertain, as according to archaeological and historical evidences have been attested to be completely uncertain, as lack of the legacy of the Pre-Myro-Rohanians is apparent.

Hesperic migration and Gambrean invasions

The country now known as Hesperia was inhabited by Rohano-Halkeginian peoples until the Great Migration in 600 AD, when they were massively displaced by the arriving population. The Myro-Rohanians had an urheimat of unknown origin, yet historians have been able to decipher their language in detail, as Common Rohanian is somewhat related to Auric.

It has been commonly ascertained that the Myro-Rohanians lived in modest roundhouses predating 950 BC - and evidence has been presented of written language being implemented somewhat later; with an alphabet borrowed from Auric. This stayed the same until the Auric conquest of Hesperia in 67 BCE.

During the 1st century, the region fell in and out of Auric hands very frequently and therefore was very susceptible to dangerous rebellion. The alliances of tribes that dominated the region In 451, Claurus united the five vulnerable tribes and decimated Gambrean allegiance to said tribes. In about 560, after severe Gambrean attacks - it fell under the hands of King Causantus, tearing down Hesperic buildings and rooting out Hesperic druids. Causantus converted to Christianity in 575, yet still retained his indifference towards the local population. He was overthrown a year later by a local hostile Hesperic army.

Causantus converting to Aerianism

Hesperes settled the area of Malleux in 660 CE, and interacted with Slavic peoples who had intertwined peacefully in the region. Local king Cathurus launched an invasion into Gambrean lands as they were busy sacking <TBD ROME?> in Winter. The Gambreans were under vassalage by Hesperes until they were sacked by the Visigoths just two centuries later. Malleux was made arguably the permanent capital of High Hespere, as it was set in stone when it was given the ability to dictate administrative affairs.

Around 952 CE the Gambreans and Visigoths were kicked out of the region causing a national identity to grow fully. High Hespere was the largest of the tribes, and because of its power the other tribes were essentially loyal to the chieftain. Hespericus' grandfather Ertheu would revolt in 1022 CE, seizing Sully Castle, creating the House of Sully. Ertheu became King of High Hespere in 1024 CE and became more popular amongst the commoners.

He would cast out dissenters from the land, sending them across the Halkeginian Sea and solidifying a once shattered region with no real identity in sight.

Hespericus' invasion of Halkeginia

During the 10th century, several collective feudal settlements had sprung up having a common identity, yet having apathy to seal the peninsula. This continued until the reign of Augustus Hespericus (birth name Guillaume), standardising a formal currency in 1101, and putting a once divided region onto the world stage. In 1104, Hespericus set out towards Asvarre (then Gambrean) and defeated the Gambrean king at Mirannes. He then sub

Contemporary depiction of Augustus Hespericus

Historians have still not been able to note how the expansive Hesperic Empire under Augustus Hespericus was able to subjugate the tense nomadic bands of the East, as they had been able to coordinate their attacks successfully without fail for years before this, yet they unanimously have declared that he was a strong leader who prioritised his military and economy.
