The Matriarchal Society of Choslow (English: /Chaus·lowː/), is a coastal nation on the east coast of Pelia. The Matriarchal Society of Choslow's closest mainland neighbor is to the north Kaharan Expeditionary Korps and Juta, and the closest neighbor to the south are Nova Solarius. The lands of the Matriarchal Society of Choslow are rich of variety of colorful flora, like the Purple Snapphoenix and the Thunderous Bat Flowers. The capital and second-largest city of the Matriarchal Society of Choslow is Dziewanna. Wenecja is the largest city and filled with the most history, having been inhabited continuously since 284AR.

History

Founding

The Grand Apotheosis in the current day

The Choslish were a nomadic people that traveled along most of the eastern and northern areas of Pelia for most of their beginning years, hence most knowledge and records of such time have been lost to history. All that we know from such a time is that they were traders and merchants by choice, and earned most of their supplies like that with various clans and tribes in what will become modern-day Choslow.

We are not sure why they will eventually decide to settle, but they will in the year 270 along the peninsula, and will establish the first city of the Queendom of Choslow, Wenecja. This settlement's first years of existence will be turbulent and full of strife. The Choslish people's upbringing of merchants and traders, most of them did not know how to farm or hunt to a large degree. It's not till a few years later when through diplomatic means the Queendom of Choslow decided to form a union with the Crystallic people, which would bring the advent of farming and proper building structures. With this joining will bring the first steps of civilization to this nation that still to this time has been ruled by a council of elders.

The First Queen Rises

It wasn't till the year of 280 that viable candidates were sorted on who should run this country by the council of elders. The prime candidates were from the three largest families of the Choslish people and the former head of the Crystallic people. These candidates were in order of power at that time; the head of the richest and largest family that controlled and conducted most interactions during the nomadic period Plutui Amordem, the heavy militarist Ganiu Sarkipet who trained and commanded the majority of the armed forces of the nation for the last ten years, the current leader of the Fliblisha Covenant Ornyvnu Fabkhys, and the former head of the Crystallic group, Lumari Solaria.

The process of choosing the head of this new nation was through a variety of means and tests. Each had their own individual council member to support them, along with significant backing by the people. It came down to various trials of leadership, diplomacy, strategy, and with a hidden fourth trial that none knew of except the council at that time. As the trials progressed through, the divide between those that were worthy and blessed by the Goddesses were obvious with Plutui and Lumari taking a lead with Ganiu just behind. Ornyvnu wasn't trying to win, just more to have the spotlight on her for a time. By the time the fourth trial came up it was a fairly even chance for each candidate, but the favorite was still Plutui since that was the most familiar option to the people. The last trial was to be exiled from the city and establish your own city and get it to a point of prosperity within four years. Each candidate could only bring 100 women and men, and enough tools and food to survive a season without setting anything up.

At this point, only three candidates were still in the running, Plutui, Ganiu, and Lumari. Ornyvnu had bowed out a time back when hearing of such a trial, for the Goddesses had said she should stay and make sure the fledgling nation would stay together, and the fact of having to give up her Sparklian pleasure. The three candidates would proceed to go and form the cities in this order Ryba, Solnechnyy, and finally Dziewanna. After four years time, the council elders went out to visit each city without knowing who made each one in secrecy. After much deliberation, they had come to a winner. They called for the three candidates to gather as will be the location of the Grand Apotheosis that will be built centuries later. The council will later claim the city of Dziewanna is the most properous city they have seen out of the three, and with that, they declared Lumari of the House Solaria the new Queen of Choslow. With this declaration, the future of Choslow was set with first the capital being moved to Dziewanna, and the other cities and the land in-between declaring fealty to Queen Lumari.
