History

Interwar years - 7587 CE to 7598 CE

Under the previous Gwretaido Prawiros, the Bind had been expansive yet respectful of other powers' boundaries, gradually opening to trade and forming diplomatic relationships with nations such as Vitmark, Fisks, and Kamura. The Bind entered into trade partnerships and decreased tensions year by year while solidifying its hold on the southern territories. However, with the appointment of Gwretaido Prawiros Bhérh3ih2osonos, the Bind's outlook changed sharply and sent a chill throughout the world.

Bhérh3ih2osonos was a hardliner and orthodox believer. Under his rule, preachers began spreading a much more intolerant and belligerent dogma against humans. These preachers became deeply involved in the civil service and foreign service. The Guild of Divinators packed the foreign service and diplomatic missions entirely with their agents, causing great friction with foreign powers as their operations grew nefarious. Diplomatic missions became deaf to overtures of diplomacy and cooperation, leading many countries to expel the Bind's diplomatic missions as scandals became the norm.

Within the Bind, interventionism grew, and heavy industry took priority. Steel, machinery, and munitions manufacture ballooned. The Sea Hordes and Land Hordes swelled in size as their equipment was modernized and stocks grew exponentially. Meanwhile, the Fisks airship route fell into disuse after notable incidents forced Fisks to discontinue the route. The Bind quickly grew opaque as media, post, and communications into and out of the Bind slowly fell silent. The Guild of Divinators even established radio jamming towers to prevent radio signals from leaking out of the Bind.

By 7594, the Bind had become completely opaque, largely a black box to outsiders. Communication with the government of the Bind became incredibly difficult and ineffective. Attempts at diplomacy went unanswered or resulted in stilted and noncommittal engagements that achieved nothing. Nevertheless, the Bind swelled its military at the expense of living standards, with shortages of some consumer goods becoming the norm. A new force to bolster the military was formed, conscripting large swathes of men into the forces, creating a non-Hlrike conscripted force.

By 7597, the behemoth of the Sea and Air Hordes could be seen actively conducting maneuvers in the high seas, making incursions into foreign airspace and seas. As a flurry of diplomatic attempts tried to diffuse the inexplicable situation, the Bind fell completely silent, ignoring calls from even foreign vessels. In some instances, Bind vessels rammed foreign vessels that attempted to make contact.

On the first of Estorun, 7598, the fears of many powers came true as the forces of the Bind spilled across the borders of its neighbors by land and air. The Sea Hordes wreaked havoc with shipping lanes, becoming hostile to every vessel they sighted, civilian or military. There was no declaration of war or communication, but it was clear that a new deadly war had erupted. The forces of the Bind mercilessly obliterated settlements across northern Cassia, Mirapan, and outer Grunland, invaded Kisaga in Davai, and moved southwards towards Sokoku.

The Blood Lotus Society Affair - 7594 CE

The year 7594 brought to the Bind the final calcification of its borders and the collapse of all trade routes. The oligarchs of the Bind, who, under the prior endowed father, grew a vibrant trade network in the Shangti, resisted with often serious consequences. Nevertheless, not all oligarchs fell in step with the Bind government; in the Summer of 7594, after many attempts to preserve foreign trading rights, the trading companies of Lotus Island came together and formed the Blood Lotus Society.

The society broke all recognition of the authority of the Bind administration and formed a breakaway region in a state of discord. The society did not intend to become independent, but for the next fourteen years, ruled the island as a Wolgos corporate state and resisted all attempt to be subdued by their homeland.

Lotus Island disavowed the policy of the Bind and openly traded and engaged in diplomacy with Davai and Anarian trading companies and powers as a private and distinct entity from the Bind.

In the Winter of 7594, The Wolgos traders of Lotus Island openly set their cannons loose on the frigate "Whloss'hen", which had been dispatched by the Bind Water Horde to assert the authority of the Bind formally. At the time, the island received assistance from concerned Davai powers to assert its independence, which, during the Wolgos scourge, was revealed to have been assistance from Yanwen officials with ties to Lotus island traders.

With the implementation of the Perkgos agreement, which ended the Wolgos Scourge, most of the Bind's territories were occupied by exhausted war-weary powers, with the Bind only retaining control of the New Xedun and Surom regions. The occupying powers had nothing but the most tenuous control over their occupation territories, which quickly fell into civil war and total destruction. The Wolgos left outside Bind control largely refused to leave their properties and fought bitterly against the occupiers and the native population, which, compounded with the Hlrike policies of scorched earth, led to a catastrophic hominitarian crisis. The Wolgos quickly succumbed to famine as agriculture became impossible, and countless Eraci, Eokoesr, and Ak'lam also died as the Wolgos attempted to feed on them.

Native peoples and shriaav killed millions of weakened Wolgos bent on revenge for a century of dehumanising oppression. A genocide of great scale made murky by the Wolgos' own attempts to circumvent the agreement and impose their will. It's estimated that the Wolgos scourge directly killed seven and a half million Wolgos, while fourteen million died from starvation and disease, five million from the widespread civil war and the remaining nine and a half from a decentralised and spontaneous genocide.

From the civil war and the tenuous control of the occupying powers, the Wolgos from the new kingdom regions of the Bind managed to gain the upper hand and expand to hold the fertile Dhier-Hakalam states of the Nuss Valley. The hardy and unyielding Wolgos of the region carved an unrecognised realm cleansed of human presence, allowing more than a million wolgos refugees to join the region's population in forming a rump state in defiance of the human powers, a state that has survived to this day and is now known as the United New Kingdoms.
