Yonderre: Difference between revisions

Despite a largely succesful transition from the [[East Gothic faith]] to [[Catholic Church|Catholicism]], settlers from the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] raised ethnic and cultural tensions throughout the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The chiefly [[Bergendii]] settlers established new villages or became wealthy burghers in the new cities settled by the crusaders, while the indigenous Gothic population were entrenched in serfdom under their new Levantine Catholic nobility. Following a number of smaller uprisings, this ultimately concluded in the [[First Potato War]] (1556-1557) and the [[Yonderian Peasants' War]] of the mid-1640s, widespread uprisings throughout Yonderre both of which ultimately failed. Yonderre was the main combatant of the [[Likedealers]] during the [[Golden Age of Vandarch Piracy]] in the late 18th century, policing the south [[Vandarch]]. Yonderre had its final civil war, the [[Second Potato War]], between 1787-1788, which resulted in relaxed taxation and granted more rights to the peasantry. Yonderre prospered throughout the 19th century in what is known as the [[Yonderian Golden Age]], a time of exceptional creative production in the fields of culture and science. Yonderre persued a strict policy of neutrality throughout the [[Great Wars]], although more than 1.5 million Yonderians [[Yonderian volunteers to Burgundie in the Great War|served in the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion as volunteers]]. Yonderre joined the [[Levantia and Odoneru Treaty Association]] in the aftermath of the [[Second Great War]] and the [[Yonderian Defence Force]] has partaken in numerous peacekeeping operations around the world since then, notably [[Operation Khyzer Rhykh]] and [[the Deluge]].

==Etymology and title==

The Serene Grand Duchy Yonderre is divided into nine [[Counties of Yonderre|Counties]] and a [[Yonderian Kestrel Isles|Grand Barony]] that are further divided into a number of baronies, each of which further subdivides into munincipalities. The system of Counties and Baronies came about at the time of the [[Conquest of Joanusterra]] and remain largely unchanged since 1494 with the [[Treaty for the guarantee of Joanus' Land]]. The [[Counties of Yonderre|Counties]] and the [[Yonderian Kestrel Isles|Grand Barony of the Kestrel Isles]] are displayed in the table below:

The Yonderian Defence Force is committed to peacekeeping operations worldwide and has been in the Pukhtun Sea as part of [[Operation Khyzer Rhykh]] since 2010. The Yonderian Defence Force has been an active party in [[the Deluge]] since 2016, the [[Army of the Air]] having led a succesful air campaign against Algoquonan militias in [[Operation Mission Shield]] and all YDF branches having fought as part of the later [[Operation Western Blizzard]]. The Yonderian Defence Force was also directly involved militarily in [[Cetsencalia]] and [[Quetzenkel]] during the [[Final War of the Deluge]], fighting on land, air and sea.

==Culture==

Yonderre shares strong cultural bonds with [[Burgundie]] from which many settlers emigrated from the fifteenth century and throughout the early modern period. Culture and the arts thrive as a result of the proportionately high amount of government funding they receive, much of which is administered by local authorities so as to involve citizens directly. Thanks to a system of grants, Yonderian artists are able to devote themselves to their work while museums, theatres, and the film institute receive national support.
