The two commanders hastened to the frontier as soon as war broke out, with Laidakon gaining the ford two days before the Ja'ekhans' arrival. He positioned himself between Kenti and the river, hoping to stop their advance there, but found himself outnumbered. His army suffered heavy losses under withering cannon fire and was unable to launch a counter-assault, breaking by mid-afternoon and abandoning the field.

Drzavljanstvo Nikolije2018.png

Citizenship of Nikolia (Serbian: Državljanstvo Nikolije, Mazurian: Obywatelstwo nikolskie) is a status given to those who were born in or have significant connection with Nikolia. It is based primarily on the principle of jus sanguinis and can be acquired by birth, ancestry, naturalisation or granted by the Monarch of Nikolia.

By the Nikolian citizenship law, holders of the Nikolian citizenship have certain special rights and duties: Nikolian citizens have right to vote on elections and to run for public office and to be protected and assisted by the Nikolian embassies and consulates abroad. However, Nikolian citizens also have a duty to complete compulsory military service or other type of compulsory service, and to respond to serve in case of national emergency. (See more...)
