Deric Federacy

The Deric Federacy was a provisional federal republic in Dericania that formed during the first phase of the Second Great War, known locally as the Second Fratricide. The Federacy consisted of territories under the occupation of the Fiannan military as well as territory controlled by local nationalist groups aligned with Fiannria. As such, the Federacy is conventionally held by historians to have been a client state of Fiannria. The territory of the Federacy is mostly coterminous with the modern Fiannan states of Adonen and Sannen.

In the early stages of the Second Fratricide, Deric nationalists rose across Dericania in opposition to the hereditary lords and states which divided the country. In northern Dericania, many of these groups were clandestinely supported by the Fiannan government. After several months of fighting the Fiannan military intervened and occupied regions of Dericania bordering itself and, together with local groups it supported, proclaimed the establishment of the Deric Federacy as a provisional state to govern these territories. Most contemporaries viewed the Deric Federacy as a buffer state between Fiannria and wartorn Dericania. Following the entrance of Faneria into the conflict, the Federacy became de facto aligned with the Imperial forces (Urcea, Burgundie, and their Deric allies). The Federacy came briefly to encompass Hollona and Diorisia before it was organized as a separate state. The Treaty of Corcra, which functionally ended the Levantine theater of the Second Great War, did not address the Federacy's existence. As such, it continued to persist until the end of the Third Fratricide, when it was incorporated into Fiannria following a plebiscite.
