- 1850's-1860s : the imperial family die in a tragic incident and the Florentian crown goes to the King of Louvier. Thus, Florentia and Louvier become a personnal union.
- The Louvian King, pressured by natives, try to outlaw Florentian slavery. Nine of the twelve states secede from the Empire : beginning of the Florentian cival war with the slave states opposing Louvier and the anti-slavery states. The slave states win and abdicate the Louvian King from the throne of Florentia, installing his second son. The victorious states write the "Confederal Act", lightening a lot the power of the Emperor is very lightened while giving huge autonomy to the states.
- 1887 : Drafting of the "Charter of the Master and the Slave", guaranteeing the first rights to slaves and greatly limiting the punishments given by the masters. The charter is signed by five of the states.
- 2019 : One of the most severe states with regard to slaves undergoes a major slave revolt. The slaves managed to organise themselves and control part of the state, with no advances on either side. (WIP)
- 2022 : Florentia and the revolt sign an armistice, but are technicly still at war with each other. (WIP)
Politics
The executive power is hold by the Emperor, although it is very small. Most of the power comes from the legislative one, incarned by Confederal Senate. Every seven years, citizens of every states vote to elect a senator, who will represent the state in the Senate. As there is twelve states, there is twelve senators.
The states having a huge autonomy, political system and laws change from state to state.
