'''Eastvale''', is a [[Government of Urcea#Province|province]] in the eastern [[Urcea|Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea]]. Eastvale is considered part of Urcea's [[Transionia]] region. It comprises the most recently acquired territory in metropolitan [[Urcea]], having been ceded to [[Urcea]] following the [[Third Caroline War]]. It holds the distinction of being the only territory held by Urcea prior to 1892 that never advanced beyond the stage of [[Government of Urcea#Overseas%20Possessions|Rectory]] and additionally holds the distinction of having a self-identified population of [[Derian people]] ranging from 10% to 25%, making it the largest percentage population of Derians in Urcea. | |||

The rise of [[Gréagóir FitzRex]] as Crown-Regent and the end of the [[Aedanicad]] would have major repercussions for Eastvale. The [[Administrative Reorganization Act of 1892]] provided that the vast majority of the Rectory for the Eastern Valley would be incorporated as a single [[Government of Urcea#Province|province]], the new administrative form of the Kingdom with peripheral regions becoming part of the new province of [[Burgundiemarch]]. The Rectory was formally dissolved on 1 August 1892 and became the first provincial government to begin operation in [[Urcea]]. The first elections took place in 1895, but like elsewhere in the nation, were mired in accusations of intimidation, ballot stuffing, and fraud. Pro-Fitzrex independents took control of the provincial government and [[Concilium Daoni]] delegation from the province. The fifteen Regal Army divisions were reinforced to thirty divisions due to FitzRex's anti-[[Holy Levantine Empire]] foreign policy, and the Regal Army began to construct a line of fortifications facing [[Dericania]]. During the [[Red Interregnum]], these fortifications were highly effective against Deric forces.

However, [[Ionian Plateau|Ionian]] Highlanders loyal to [[House de Weluta]] infiltrated the province with ease and launched a lengthy insurgent campaign with local assistance. News of the [[Overland Campaign]] required a concentration of forces in [[Burgundiemarch]], leaving just five divisions to hold Eastvale. Ionian highlanders and local militias outnumbered Regal Army forces, and following a short campaign the Regal Army surrendered Fort St. Andrew on 15 July 1899. Eastvale was the third province to fall to Legitimist forces - South Ionia and North Ionia preceded it - and it provided an important supply route from [[Dericania]] to the Ionian provinces. | ||
