Often called a Northern Golden Age from 1571-1705. The O’Rourkian dynasty ruled a pacified Culfras during a period where the dragonnades and mass expulsions of Protestants had come to an end and those that were left had been granted religious freedom to practice in certain regions of Culfra and also in Soirwind (Sheer-Vind). Which was a consolidated colonial area of Culfran trade companies in Alshar, given a royal monopoly. Creating a base of operations for the future Culfran(Fiannria) Alshar Trade Company versus the Burgundian Alshar Trade Company conflict of economies. Culfras was at peace at home and the Kings of Culfras were praised rulers for the people. Starting from the Dragonnades, and into the O’Rourke rule, centralization and a decline in noble autonomy were carried out, adopting absolutionism. Notable agreements and marital ties were formed amongst other Levantine states, within the Empire and beyond, but also abroad in the Occidental world. The cultural differences amongst Culfras was mitigated through common religion and common writing, as well as lords and administrators being of their own culture. Culfran kingdom, its colonial empire and ties it built across the Vandarch are still romanticized in Fiannria to this day. | ||
