The significant and lasting economic deprivation in the Gassavelian duchies lead to unrest and resentment among the population, and a popular uprising began in 1675, which was the hundredth anniversary of the destruction of the Kingdom. While revolts and minor uprisings had been common in the region since 1610, the '75 Rising was the first coordinated mass uprising requiring a significant commitment of the [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal Army]]. | The significant and lasting economic deprivation in the Gassavelian duchies lead to unrest and resentment among the population, and a popular uprising began in 1675, which was the hundredth anniversary of the destruction of the Kingdom.

Following the victory of Royal forces in 1679, it was decided reprisals would be light and most leaders of the revolt were returned to their homes following the conflict. The end of the war would begin a century of conciliatory efforts by the [[Government of Urcea]] to integrate the Gassavelians. In 1690, the Apostolic King granted a fishing monopoly to several Gassavelian firms off the southern coast of the Kingdom, a policy which would significantly improve the economic situation in the coastal part of the Gassavelian realms. | Following the victory of Royal forces in 1679, it was decided reprisals would be light and most leaders of the revolt were returned to their homes following the conflict.

The 1685 [[History of Urcea (1575-1798)#Incorporation reform|Jurisdiction Decree]] incorporated Gassavelia and other peripheral territories formally within the administrative structure of the Kingdom, creating a degree of representation for Gassavelia in the [[Concilium Daoni]].

Most of Gassavelia sits in a valley between the [[Hortus Mountains]] to the west and the highlands of western [[Burgundie]] to the east, with the Saianda River bisecting the country at the lowest point in the valley. The | Most of Gassavelia sits in a valley between the [[Hortus Mountains]] to the west and the highlands of western [[Burgundie]] to the east, with the Saianda River bisecting the country at the lowest point in the valley. The Saianda River, which is thought to have formed the valley by erosion, is the primary site of human settlement within the state, and the Saianda River basin makes up a majority of the land area of Gassavelia. Topographically, much of Gassavelia is uneven, with steep declines from the interior country to the rivers which cross the state forming deep canyons in many places. Most of Gassavelia is far above sea level. The significant topographical differences poses a challenge for the typically car-centric lifestyle of most Urceans, and consequently Gassavelians use automobiles less hours per year on average than any other area of [[Urcea]]. | ||
Sitting just above the equator, Gassavelia is mostly covered in tropical rainforests and receives a significant amount of precipitation per year. | Sitting just above the equator, Gassavelia is mostly covered in tropical rainforests and receives a significant amount of precipitation per year. | ||
