History

The High Kingdom

Coronation of High King Æthelwin the Liberator, 1205

In the beginning of Ruzkov rule over Aborzhenia, religion was not much of a primary issue of conflict. While some skirmishes between followers of Aunhii and Catholics were recorded as occurring early as 840 in the Kilcochran Chronicles, the early Ruzkov administration tended to allow the two main religions to interact and even create a syncretic belief later known as Kerlatism.

Geography

Administrative divisions

Aborzhenia is divided into eight Provinces. These Provinces function somewhat autonomously from the National government, controlling their own tax bases, parliaments, justice systems, legislatures, governors, and police systems separate from the federal systems.

In addition to the eight Provinces, the upscale neighborhood of Edælia also lies partially within the Aborzhene Capital District (ACD), which is legislated directly from the national government. Services like fire and medical care that cannot be effectively governed by the national government are provided by the Metropolitan Government of Port Saint Edwards, the city that surrounds the ACD and that the remainder of Edælia lies within.
