History
Main article: History of Silverdale
Prehistory Period
Prehistory of Silverdale began with the great immigration of the races of Arcadia into the mainland Silverdale and its nearby islands for the fresh green and fertile lands from the now Frozen South Pole. All by the splintered penguin tribes who stayed in Endless Wastelands and settled in the region of Shivering Peninsula, where the earliest settlements emerged by the arcane gifts of the Winter Circles. At this period, while unknown of the exact year, did the Elven race separated into two distant species called Manakete (or Dragon Elves) and Eis (Arctic Elves) by their religious blessing of Avala and Airus. The discovered of ancient burial and ritual sites in the Reach and Silver mountains by the elven tribes were the believed locations of their metamorphosis. This founding helps to reason by these regions serve as the elven tribes homeland in Silverdale. While the rest of the races can be found across the continent, the first cities could be found in the Cherial region where ponykind, cowfolk, and humans develop early forms of agriculture.
Archeological findings, personal accounts from Locua, and data from Ex Machina Source point at the late period of Prehistory came what is known as the Dragon Wars. A war was fought between tribal alliances between the Divine Dragons and Dark Dragon tribe the 8000 B.C. A feud that brought entire regions scoured in flame and brought ruination. It is believed to be caused by extradimensional beings called the Ex-Machina under a study that manipulated many beings across the land itself under different destructive social experiments. What ended the Dragon Wars is agreed by historians that the Divine Dragons sealed away the Dark Dragons into the Shadow Plane. It is believed that the mythical figure Aelsea aided in the defeat of the Dark Dragons and ended the experimentations of the Ex-Machina.
Ancient Silverdale
Ancient Silverdalean civilization, known as the Light Tear Civilizations, was founded by the class of druids who connect and spread their wisdom to the earliest kingdoms as many roam the landscape to serve religious purposes to the local inhabits. The Sage Path, an ancient trade network, was establish with the legendary Alicorn named Oven Heart rose from a once pillaged city by poor harvest and monster attacks to a regional power over Cherial known as Chen, spread wealth and knowledge across the land. Oven Heart traveled across the land to aid ponykind and created the Life Society to preserve life in the land as the Chill hit the Silver land.
Golden Herd Period
In the late ancient era, the three kingdoms of the Tristan, Chen, and Milkdale were rivals and struggle for dominates of the Cherial region. In this time, the mysterious oceanic vessels approach the Summer Isles and the northern coastline, which brought the attention of Chen as they sent the head priestess Miko Whiteout to make contact and somehow ask for aid from these strange pony folk. As the emissary found out of their name, the Golden Herd and its riches, Chen took the opportunity to ask for alliance, which Miko Whiteout traveled to the Golden Polis and learn of the marvels of its civilization.
When Milk Whiteout return, she achieved a military alliance and brought forth a legion of Golden Herdites to land in the small Silver port town, which was rename Silver Polis. The Golden Herd and Chen swiftly conquered their great rivals, and as a reward Miko Whiteout became Proconsul of the new subherd. Not only Chen will become the capital, but Silver Polis will grew into the largest city, as cultural, philosophy, and technological advances were brought to the region.
Formation of Silverdale
After the Great Ruin, the Golden Herdite Province of Silverdale became isolated from the world. The war left the province drained of its manpower and treasury, and the surviving veterans shocked the land that the Golden Polis is no more. Without the trade of the empire and resources, the economy of the province collapsed and discord broke out upon the land. The Province capital of Chen suffered the great Potato Riot that forced the ruling Consul Augustus Grapekin the Penguin to fled to Silver Polis, and a civil war soon followed. In an act of desperation, Augustus Grapekin reorganized the Provence to become a new Empire called the Silver Herd and became a new dictator. Shocked by this act, Emperor Augustus Grapekin was shortly assassinated, but the succession Apollo Sunspear crowned herself Empress Augustus Sunspear and processed to crush the rebellion. The once republic of the Golden Herd declined into a despot monarchy and the senate became more corrupted as the years passed as the Silver Herd faced numerous tribal invasions from the south. Some of the tribes were integrated to the Empire, and the druid circles rose to become a powerful class that brought back the old ways of generations before the herd to cleanse what they saw as the Empire's decadence.
The Silver Herd faced its end when the great goat demoness named Aqua took over as Empress and ruled the land in an ironfist, unleashing destruction and chaos. The great cities of Chen and Silver Polis was sacked and pillaged by hordes of demons. Civilians flee the Empire towards the wilderness, and sought shelter to other kingdoms and tribes. At this age, the young Earth Pony Daring Loom discovered the fey pony called Aurora, an alicorn, and begged her to help his people. As Aurora sensed the land cried for land with its inhabitants of both sapient and wild, Aurora accepted and made the young stallion her knight. The two aided the people of the land, and soon rose up with the grand crusade of Light and Dark to rid the demonic blight of the land.
At the siege of Silver Polis, Aurora and Aqua faced each other in the heat of battle and clashed against each other. At the end of the duel, Aqua was defeated and found mercy by Aurora. With Aqua defeated and turned side to the holy crusade, the demonic horde banished from the land, and the Empire freed from chaos. The Crusaders, who found Aurora as their rightful ruler, gave Aurora the crown to the Silver Herd, the Kingdom of Crystalia, the Holy Kingdom of Derpicorn, the Kingdom of Elkia, and the Island of Feydale. With the realms unified, Aurora created Silverdale and moved the capital to Snowy Light.
Queendom of Silverdale
Unified by Queen Aurora, the land was named Silverdale and reformed into a monarchy ruled by the Queen Herself. Yet her spirited nature allowed her subjects to be ruled by the local nobility and other forms of government, as long they answered to the crown. As Silverdale developed to a stable Kingdom and expanded by diplomatic means to encompass more people, the people viewed Queen Aurora as not only a benevolent ruler, but as a mother and a goddess. This status came from the missionary trips by the harmonists who syncretism efforts of the Silverdalean pantheon and the neo druidic movement that rose from Aurora’s rule, and Aurora being an Alicorn on pair with Celestia herself.
Age of Exploration
When the stories of the Golden Herd from overseas, the penguin traders, and other strange visitors captured that imagination, many dared to venture across the Great Blue Ocean to explore the unknown for the rich lands of Herdite Merchant Republic, Equestria, and the Mist Continent. This was fueled by religious reasons as the demand for harmonist pilgrims, and holy sites to folks of wisdom in the Twilight Church at other lands, pushed the sailors to go to new heights. At this time period, the great expedition of Victoria Drake and Merlin Loinheart was embark their legendary Circumnavigation journey around the World and Mystria. Not only did the economy grow, but foreign relations between the Kingdom of Dyste was founded into an alliance when King Tyroth made his legendary voyage from the Great Blue Ocean, slain the Kraken, and visited the Queen herself.
Union of the Penguin Kingdoms
As this time, the largest Penguin Kingdom, the Ice Kingdom, King Chalachin fell into the influence of the entombed dragon deity Garyx, who called for him to bring her wrath across the Silverdale and a new age for Penguinkind. Lost in this madness ambition, he began to create a weather machine to freeze over Silverdale, and cause tyrannical rule. This ended when a band of adventurers and the Rainbow Kight Raynebow aided Prince Edgar to snap the king out of his madness, and prevented such a disaster across the realm.
Relationships between the Penguin Lands and Silverdale warmed up after the incident, and better ties were established. In the Coming Darkness, a great Behemoth was unleashed from its frozen prision and terrorize the Icy Coast and the southern coastline of Silverdale. Princess Snow and the Penguin leaders banded together, and helped defeat the vile monster. To celebrate and help grow from the disaster, both lands united under one banner to recover from the attack. At this time, the first Congress was made as the call of representation from the civilian population came from the enlightenment of Golden Herdite ideas.
Decline of the Monarchy
The fall of the Monarchy of Silverdale began with the disappearance of Queen Aurora. As an abnormal magical surge of a great Glacier rise and then retreat that unleash unspeakable monsters in the Icy Coast, Queen Aurora herself and a company of royal knights traveled to the Howling Winds. On June 25 of 1928 at midnight, the night lights vanish as a blizzard settle in and at that moment when Aurora travel down to the Glacier with her company, she vanish without a trace. Many of the company were lost, but some return to report the news of what happened that night. In a response, many knights known as Questers Knights attempted to find Aurora and her heirs, but with no avail. At this moment, the regent Black Clover came into power during the succession crisis, as the crowned Heir Princess Snow and her Winter Palace vanished without a trace.
Silverdale faced an economic decline as the markets suffered a depression and the inherit wealth divisions between the nobility and the common grew wider. At first, Black Clover eased such downturns, but the authoritarian nature and chaos grew within each actions to down right draconian grew. Members of his council became his cronies and corruption spread rapidly. This hit the boiling point the Regent declared to be the new ruler, and dark magic consumed a number of cities to create a long lasting winter. In February 21 of 1940, Black Clover proclaim his kingship of Silverdale and closed the House of Congress to begin his purge of the nation with magical extension of winter. His political opposition quickly rose up and declared the king to be a mad tyrant, which led to the Silverdalean Civil War.
Silverdalean Civil War
The Silverdalean Civil War broke out on February 25, 1940, against the rule of King Black Clover. The rebellious forces created an uneasy alliance as the different ideologies that consisted of the Congressional Forces of Cherial region, the many warlords across the nation, the Fairy Alliance in the southeast, and Rubydale in the Endless Wasteland. The two sides clashed against each other, and later in the civil war against each other, which lead to the deadliest military conflict in Silverdale history with millions of deaths in total.
As the war raged on, the fairies were defeated by Black Clover's forces and forced to retreat to Nine Island to use as their last stronghold. This however, led to Black Clover's Forces to be overextended as the combined forces in 1943 of January 15 pushed into the Capital of Silverdale and expelled the king from the throne. With the fall of the capital, his forces collapsed into many armies of warlords find a position of power. In late January, the Grand Convention was held in hopes to end the civil war and establish peace. Peace talks soon failed as the Fairy Alliance declared independence from Silverdale, and the second phase of the war, the Windego Wraith, ensued. Rubydale capitulate along others as winter consumed them with many monsters plagued the land and brought great ruin. Powerful magi along side with Gwynie and adventuress descended into Endless Winter, and at the end of the civil war returned with the threat of Winter disappeared. In the end of the war, the Congressional Forces eliminated the last of the warlords and restored harmony into the land of Silverdale.
Birth of the Republic
In 1946 the Congressional Forces transform the nation into a republic called the United States of Silverdale. The state abolish the title of monarchy as it had no legitimate heirs and unable to perform the task to promote harmony across the nation. Yet the centuries led by Aurora, now vanish, changed many ponies lost and grief for the destruction of the nation.
The First President Hamelin Edouard Bellerose worked to strengthen the state and create the model of Silverdale as a Federal Republic that ultimately answered to the central government. The Republic began to renewal the economy and social programs to bring Silverdale in the modern light.
Early 21th Century
In the times of trouble where hostile nations across the globe aimed to eradicate Ponykind, Silverdale passed the Shining Beacon of Light Act to open its hands for pony refugees and develop its military to protect the nation against possible threats. The Coalition of Ponyist States was desirable to many Silverdaleans, but President Aqua Crystal and skeptical magi were concern on the Hippostania being extradimensional dark parody of ponies and how the Coalition would represent the values of friendship would last. As Hippostania descend into a rogue state and signs of distrust between the member states, Silverdale refused to join the Coalition to purpose its own interests to promote friendship.
Silverdale improved its relationships with Crystal Spires and join to defend the Beastling Lands in the Shrill Crisis. While the war never came and ended peacefully, the Silverdaleans upon return home unintentionally awaken the Karken in the Aurora Ocean by a series of convoys and fleets nearby a remote island. The Karken named Davy Jones, rallied an alliance with the naga and other sea monstrous, and unleashed a horrific in the high seas which would be known as the Secret War at Aurora Ocean. The sea route became dangerous and food prices rocketed, which lead President Littlepip and the Band of Silverdaleans to faced the Karken itself. In the Battle of Stormwind, President Littlepip and the first fleet clashed against the monster, and successfully defeated it. This was at the cost of President Littlepip fell down into a comatose state after a powerful strike from the Karken, and the nation was left to Vice President Kaga Blizzardheart the Foxkin to led Congress to its recovery efforts from the Secret War.
Silverdale partake in the diplomatic efforts in the Akila crisis for a peaceful solution, and supplied the Akilans to defend themselves against the Celestial Harmony Empire Aggressors. When the demonic threat in Borealia led to the destruction of Celestial Harmony Empire, Montesardo-East Adanzi, and other nations, Silverdale open its hands once more to accepted the surviving refugees to live in Silverdale.
Contemporary History
In recent times, Silverdale suffered a period of civil unrest after the public reveals that former President Cynthia Luvgood aided a conspiracy group known as the 'Those Who Slither in the Dark' to revive Garyx years prior and led to the Second Winter War. Cynthia Luvgood's organizations were ceased and went to undergo investigations, as those who were expected to be a part of the conspiracy became selected in an ongoing investigation for corruption, conspiracy, and terrorism.
The Second Winter War started at the start of 2020 and the end of the middle of the session. A state of total war as ice monster hordes led by Garyx brought destruction across the South Pole territories and states, to the southern Coastline of Silverdale. The war ended with a decisive victory for the allied coalition that consisted of the Dragon Sea Alliance, Malgrave, and New Dornalia in aid of Silverdale against the horde. Garyx herself was defeated by a team from the Mystic Guardians but disappeared from her Prison.
