History
During the 15th and 16th century, Pelaxia evolved into one of Sarpedons's foremost power with the voyages acquiring vast lands in Vallos. During the reign of César V and Carlos II, Pelaxia reached the peak of its power with the Pelaxian Empire spanning 3.4 million square km of the earth's surface. By the mid 17th century this power had been weakened by the Kindred Wars along with financial problems, and the lack of reforms.
