The Vicariate of Vespera (Alpanian: Vicariatus Vesperae), known as more commonly as Vespera, is a state in southern Hibernia in the world of Verthandi, bordered by the Republic of Duquesne and the Republic of Pregost to the north; the Despotate of Nikeaneon, the Grand Priory of Demoran, the Republic of Rello to the South; the Tapatean Alliance and the Copan Federation to the West through maritime border. It claims to be subject of the Holy Aventine Empire, although the Empire does not officially exercise its authority over the Dominion and it is internationally considered a sovereign state. It is ruled by an Vicarus, or a Vicar who wields Imperial authority in place of the Emperor. It was founded by Alpanian settlers from the Empire began to settle around the Vesperan sea in 1515, with the establishment of the settlement of Sanctus Petrus. Sanctus Petrus quickly became the center of Imperial colonization in the region, and so in 1520 the Emperor created the Vicariate in order to govern the affairs of the Imperial colonies. The Vicariate would remain a part of the Empire for the next few centuries, and underwent more development and expansion, with several sub Dominions being established around the region. All the colonies in the region answered to the Vicarus in Sanctus Petrus, but eventually, relations became strained as several of the colonies desired more independence for themselves. Central Vespera remained faithful, however, and was able to keep the colonies in line with Imperial Support. However, during the Clementine Wars, the Empire lost control of the Hestaica, losing their ports and straits which had allowed for maintenance of the colonies. Immediately several wars began as the Imperial colonies, cut off from the Empire hard pressed in war in Cybelleum, began to squabble and to fight for control. Vespera remained loyal to the Emperor, holding onto the central Alpanian and Nymerian settlements, although it failed in preserving the other colonies. The Empire acknowledged they could not maintain their official hold over the Vicariate, and so it became de facto independent, even though it still considers itself as a vassal of the Empire. The Vicariate underwent several reforms and changes as it began to deal with independence and separation from the Empire, with the Vicar being elected by a select council of nobility and clergy. Despite being forced to be, the Vicariate has close ties to the Empire, and has grown closer since the end of the Clementine Wars. However, the Vicariate also has an alliance with the United Provinces, one of the major naval powers of the world, and allowed them to build a Transvesperan Canal through the isthmus of Transvespera. Regarded as one of the most Traditional countries in the New World, it is currently the most stable and developed countries in the region of Greater Vespera, and remains a regional power. The Vicariate continues to develop and grow, and seeks retain its status as a regional power and prevent other states from destroying its sovereignty or traditions.
