{{main|History of Tiami}} | |||
The modern Kingdom of Amador is but the name of one of several Kingdoms that have occupied the Tiamian Peninsula in Gholgoth. As a nation of elves, Amador has an impossibly long history, with archaeological records suggesting Elven civilizations to have existed at least by 10,000 B.C. Some records suggest as far back as 20,000 B.C. | |||
Modern pureblood elves such as the Queen, Maeralya Amador, are of the Tiami. A numerous people, the Tiami were the first elven civilization to spring up times where writing had yet to exist. Murals and ancient, dilapidated temples of the ancient Tiami, still scatter the various lush forests of Southern Amador. Tiami would eventually go on to create the Elven language before their untimely demise. The oldest Tiami Elf today is Maerlaya Amador, having been born some time during antiquity ranging from nearly 12,000 years to 20 thousand years ago. | |||
The Kingdom of Amador has a strained, bloody relationship with its Scandin neighbor to the north and east. Countless Scandin invasions and occupations have defined several periods of Amadorian history. SCandin faith dictates that humans are the one true race, which is opposite of the Amadorian Elven viewpoint. In modern times, while the two nations have frequent skirmish, most actions are simply deterrents, though war could break out at any time. | |||
===The Kingdom of Tiami=== | |||
The Kingdom of Tiami was the oldest royal house, and the orignal elves of old Amador. Formally known as Tiami, established during the Ancient Age, the Kingdom of Tiami's founding occurred before written languages existed in Amador. Written history of the Tiamian kingdom exist as far back as 5,000 B.C., though this is highly contested. | |||
It is commonly believed that the Kingdom of Tiami established [[Ifa Serine]], the modern capital of Amador, during the Ancient Age. Several Tiamian buildings, including the [[Citadel of Flames]], still stand as testaments to Tiami's legacy. Tiami was believed to be a highly oppressive Kingdom, often slaughtering its citizens outright for little to no apparent reasoning. | |||
====Fall of the Tiami==== | |||
===The Kingdom of Hath Teliel=== | |||
The Kingdom of Hath Teliel begun in 3,287 BC following the [[Dark Century (Tiami)|Dark Century]], a century-long civil war that erupted following the Tiamianian peasant uprisings. The uprisings, brought about by the highly oppressive rule of the Tiami, crippled the Kingdom, effectively reducing it in power over a period of century in which it wasted away. The century was seen as a blighted time. Plague and famine decimated much of the Tiami's populace. While the Kingdom ultimately put the civil war down, the bloodshed and economic issues were highly prevalent, leading to the inevitable downfall of the First Elven Kingdom. | |||
[[File:Elven Soldier.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Hathien Soldier of the Era]] | |||
Hath Teliel would assume control of the Kingdom by infiltrating the Eternal Palace in Ifa Serine and murdering the entirety of the ruling family. The King of Tiami at the time, [[Tiamius Glordius]], was brutally executed with his head placed firmly on a pike in the main square of Ifa Serine. [[Olymphar Hath Teliel]], the former general and loyal soldier of Tiami was responsible for the murder of the royal family. When his involvment became known, he was cheered relentless. So much so that he was declared King of Tiami, thus establishing the [[Royal House of Hath Teliel|Hathien Royal House]]. Not wishing to be compared to Tiami, he declared the new dynasty as "The Kingdom of Hath Teliel" His new subjects would hence be called 'Hathiens' instead of Tiamians. A purge of royal Tiamians would commence, effectively causing the extinct of the House, though in modern times, the House of Amador traces its lineage back to the Tiami of old. | |||
As King, Olymphar would rule his new kingdom for one hundred years before falling during the [[Elderin Campaign (Tiami)|Elderin Campaigns]], a series of expansionist campaigns on the peninsula against the Elderin Elves, a separate sect of Amadorian elves that diverged from the founding of the Kingdom. The initial campaigns ultimately ended in failure following the loss of King Olymphar. King Olymphar would be succeeded by his son, [[Perigridel Hath Teliel]] following his death. As his first order of business, he successfully negotiated a peace between to two sects of Elves. | |||
The new King would enact a series of social reforms, giving new freedoms to the peasant and merchant class civilians, expanding food storage and distribution methods, and enacting a series of large-scale infrastrcuture projects. Included were the first walled cities and stone-paved highways for the transportation of goods and military forces. It was also around this time that the Hathiens encountered dragons for the first time. Upon learning how to tame and bond with the flame-breathing creatures, the Hathien Royal Family would be without challenge for nearly two millennia. The Hathien Armies would adopt the first [[Dragonback Corps (Tiami)|Dragonback Corps]]. In 3,023 BC, King Perigridel would renew the Elderin Campaigns with dragons laying waste to Elderin settlements, razing their cities and decimating their armies. Following a brutal series of coastal sackings, the Elderin King, Joriel, would surrender. His house would be dismembered, his family executed, and his kingdom incorporated into the Kingdom of Hath Teliel. | |||
King Perigridel, following the triump over the Elderins, set his sight towards the vast oceans. Building vast sea-worthy vessels capable of transporting dragons, he ordered his people to explore the oceans in search of new lands, knowledge, and to share in the wealth of Hath Teliel. It is said during this time that the King was searching for lost information on the Great Phoenix, as to ascertain his desire to achieve divinity. It was during one such expediton circa 3010-3000 BC that Hathien elves encountered the then-barbaric creatures of what would become known as the Holy Marsh. | |||

Etymology
History
The modern Kingdom of Amador is but the name of one of several Kingdoms that have occupied the Tiamian Peninsula in Gholgoth. As a nation of elves, Amador has an impossibly long history, with archaeological records suggesting Elven civilizations to have existed at least by 10,000 B.C. Some records suggest as far back as 20,000 B.C.
Modern pureblood elves such as the Queen, Maeralya Amador, are of the Tiami. A numerous people, the Tiami were the first elven civilization to spring up times where writing had yet to exist. Murals and ancient, dilapidated temples of the ancient Tiami, still scatter the various lush forests of Southern Amador. Tiami would eventually go on to create the Elven language before their untimely demise. The oldest Tiami Elf today is Maerlaya Amador, having been born some time during antiquity ranging from nearly 12,000 years to 20 thousand years ago.
The Kingdom of Amador has a strained, bloody relationship with its Scandin neighbor to the north and east. Countless Scandin invasions and occupations have defined several periods of Amadorian history. SCandin faith dictates that humans are the one true race, which is opposite of the Amadorian Elven viewpoint. In modern times, while the two nations have frequent skirmish, most actions are simply deterrents, though war could break out at any time.
The Kingdom of Tiami
The Kingdom of Tiami was the oldest royal house, and the orignal elves of old Amador. Formally known as Tiami, established during the Ancient Age, the Kingdom of Tiami's founding occurred before written languages existed in Amador. Written history of the Tiamian kingdom exist as far back as 5,000 B.C., though this is highly contested.
It is commonly believed that the Kingdom of Tiami established Ifa Serine, the modern capital of Amador, during the Ancient Age. Several Tiamian buildings, including the Citadel of Flames, still stand as testaments to Tiami's legacy. Tiami was believed to be a highly oppressive Kingdom, often slaughtering its citizens outright for little to no apparent reasoning.
Fall of the Tiami
The Kingdom of Hath Teliel
The Kingdom of Hath Teliel begun in 3,287 BC following the Dark Century, a century-long civil war that erupted following the Tiamianian peasant uprisings. The uprisings, brought about by the highly oppressive rule of the Tiami, crippled the Kingdom, effectively reducing it in power over a period of century in which it wasted away. The century was seen as a blighted time. Plague and famine decimated much of the Tiami's populace. While the Kingdom ultimately put the civil war down, the bloodshed and economic issues were highly prevalent, leading to the inevitable downfall of the First Elven Kingdom.
Hath Teliel would assume control of the Kingdom by infiltrating the Eternal Palace in Ifa Serine and murdering the entirety of the ruling family. The King of Tiami at the time, Tiamius Glordius, was brutally executed with his head placed firmly on a pike in the main square of Ifa Serine. Olymphar Hath Teliel, the former general and loyal soldier of Tiami was responsible for the murder of the royal family. When his involvment became known, he was cheered relentless. So much so that he was declared King of Tiami, thus establishing the Hathien Royal House. Not wishing to be compared to Tiami, he declared the new dynasty as "The Kingdom of Hath Teliel" His new subjects would hence be called 'Hathiens' instead of Tiamians. A purge of royal Tiamians would commence, effectively causing the extinct of the House, though in modern times, the House of Amador traces its lineage back to the Tiami of old.
As King, Olymphar would rule his new kingdom for one hundred years before falling during the Elderin Campaigns, a series of expansionist campaigns on the peninsula against the Elderin Elves, a separate sect of Amadorian elves that diverged from the founding of the Kingdom. The initial campaigns ultimately ended in failure following the loss of King Olymphar. King Olymphar would be succeeded by his son, Perigridel Hath Teliel following his death. As his first order of business, he successfully negotiated a peace between to two sects of Elves.
The new King would enact a series of social reforms, giving new freedoms to the peasant and merchant class civilians, expanding food storage and distribution methods, and enacting a series of large-scale infrastrcuture projects. Included were the first walled cities and stone-paved highways for the transportation of goods and military forces. It was also around this time that the Hathiens encountered dragons for the first time. Upon learning how to tame and bond with the flame-breathing creatures, the Hathien Royal Family would be without challenge for nearly two millennia. The Hathien Armies would adopt the first Dragonback Corps. In 3,023 BC, King Perigridel would renew the Elderin Campaigns with dragons laying waste to Elderin settlements, razing their cities and decimating their armies. Following a brutal series of coastal sackings, the Elderin King, Joriel, would surrender. His house would be dismembered, his family executed, and his kingdom incorporated into the Kingdom of Hath Teliel.
King Perigridel, following the triump over the Elderins, set his sight towards the vast oceans. Building vast sea-worthy vessels capable of transporting dragons, he ordered his people to explore the oceans in search of new lands, knowledge, and to share in the wealth of Hath Teliel. It is said during this time that the King was searching for lost information on the Great Phoenix, as to ascertain his desire to achieve divinity. It was during one such expediton circa 3010-3000 BC that Hathien elves encountered the then-barbaric creatures of what would become known as the Holy Marsh.

Geography
The Kingdom of Amador is a large country by both land and total area. A peninsular nation, Amador shares a sea border with the Scandinvans via their island of Vismer. Amador also shares a southern land border with Brewdomia. Southern Tiami itself is largely mountainous or rolling hills, whereas central Amador is heavily forested by the Godswood trees. Flat, fertile plains stretch throughout much of Amador's northern half.

The Glypherial Mountain Range staddles much of Amador's southern border southwestern coast. Mt. Olmhyphar, at 18,596 ft., is the tallest moutain in all of Amador and the Glphyerials. Boundles mountain lakes straddle the mountain range, allowing for inhabited life to manage. The Glypherial Mountain Range is home to several extinct volcanoes, inclduing Mt. Killaltel, at 17,493 ft., thus making it the tallest volcano in Amador.
There are many lakes in Amador; the largest being Lake Oraclien. The vast majority of Amador's population is situated in northern and central Amador. These areas, largely flat, coastal, or rolling plain, are highly fertile. Amadorian wheat fields litter northern Amador, and are often considered a natural wonder in their own right due to how much farmland there is. Lake Oraclien provides one-fifths of the nations water needs.
The Encuriel River, Amador's longest river, streches from the Glypherial Mountain all the way to Ene Shaerasat the nothern tip of Amador, where its delta empties into the Narrows. Largely considered the national river of Amador, the Encuriel is also considered the longest river in Gholgoth. The Encuriel also feeds and nourishes the vast Godswood forest of central Amador, leading to mature Godswood capable of reaching well over four hundred feet in height.
Amador is also home to the Valley of End Yeltelkire, the lowest point in the nation from sea level. End Yelteklkire is a graben, stuck between two mountains ranges in Southern Amador. A strike slip fault system bisects the valley. This area is also the most seismically active area of the nation. Zeveral creeks cross the valley, and it remains relatively fertile. Numerous ruins dot the landscape surrounding the valley.

Government and Politics
National Government
The Kingdom of Amador is an absolutely monarchy operating as a federal republic asserting sovereignty over 12 states and several overseas territories. It is among the old continuously governed nations in Gothic. While power is derived from the Monarchy, Amador has a democratic constitution and democratically elected officials, though final say on any laws and enforcement rest within the hands of the Eternal throne. The Constitution of Amador is the supreme legal document of the nation. It establishes, under the monarchy, the structures and responsibilities of the federal government and its relationship with the population.
The Kingdom of Amador is a monarchy ruled by Maeralya Amador, head of the House of Amador. As such, the nation's government can be classified as an absolutely monarchy; however, the government, in accordance with the monarchy, operates a bicameral legislature and a judiciary structure as well. Amador maintains several democratic values despite the absolute power the monarchy holds over the nation, for Amador could not hope to be solely governed by one person.

Military
The Eternal Forces of Amador are commanded by the Department of Defense at the behest of the Monarchy. As such, the current monarch is considered the commander-in-chief of the military. The Department of Defense administers all branches of the military: the Eternal Army, Arat Navui (Navy), the Aeronautica Militare, and Coastal Defense Forces. The armed forces are considered an advanced, professional force in Gholgoth, where her main interest lay. The EFA is structured around defense, and thusly, possess only limited power projection.
The AAF are considered one of the smallest military forces in Gholgoth, owing to the nation's defensive-minded structure and smaller population size. As a result of its smaller size, the AAF possess nuclear weapons in substantial amounts. The Department of Defense does not publish offical numerical counts of nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons are considered a deterrent and would only be used in a retaliatory strike. Amador's budget publishes national defense at 4.2% of the national budget, though many believe this to be false and significantly higher.
The Arat Navui is the largest branch of Eternal Forces, owing in large point to the nations geogrpahy as as sitting on a peninsula. The Scandinvans are also consider a threat, and thus the navy has undergone extensive modernization and expansion to curb Scandin influences and desires.

Religion
Religious affiliation in the KoA, according to a 2022 Amalup poll:
Religion in the Kingdom of Amador is universally free by proclamation, with one exception, of the monarchy of Amador and further guaranteed in the codified laws of the land, the Constitution. No governing body, nor interference can forbid the free exercise of religion in Amador. Religion, as a result, is widespread and practiced by a majority of Amadorian households.
The Largest religion is the Eternal Flame, so named for the divine powers bestowed upon monarchs upon their accension. It preaches that the Great Phoenix granted it's flame to the rightful ruler of Amador so that the sun would forever cast it's warming gaze upon the fertile lands of Amador. The Eternal Flame considers each Amadorian monarch to be a living god, as they are capable of bending the flame to their will. More than 60 % of the population practices the Eternal Flame.
Amador is a diverse nation, with millions of Christians and its subsequent denominations, Jews, Muslims, and countless other religions being practiced in Amador's borders. Amador's de facto nation religion is the Eternal Flame. Because of the nation being such a religiouslt diverse nation, many citizens believe in a higher power or spiritual entity.
The Universal Rite of the Scandin Church is the leading religion of the Scandinvans and the direct antithesis to the Eternal Flame. As a nation of non-humans, Amador is actively against the Scandinvan nation and its religious leaders. Amador has made regionally unpopular advances at culling the religion under the guise of safely securing the nation from a religion which harbors wonton destruction against its populace. Tentions, as a result are high, with many believing this religious persecution to be a religious culling. With Amador's entry into regional affairs over the last few decades, further religious cullings could result in military response by both sides sooner rather than later.
