The Province of Lyukquar is an administrative region within [[Faneria]], spanning from the border of [[Haibnelann]] to the west, [[Connsmonan]] to the south, the (ocean) to the north, and (unnamed npc nation) to the north and east. It is inhabited by approximately fourteen million people and hosts a significant Protestant minority, with its economic sectors being dominated by timber, fishing, and tourism focused on the outer slopes of the [[Deamhainn]] mountains. The local Lyukqui minority is largely admixed with Fhainnin colonists, and [[Fhasen]] is the de facto Gaelic dialect. | |||
==Geography== | ==Geography== | ||
The terrain of the territory is heavily defined by the Deamhainn Mountains and its northern coast, and as such varies from low-lying plains in the north to slowly sloped mountains in the south. The climate is typically chilly, and the area sees significant snowing during the winter, leaving port access during the deep winter months a question of luck, or, failing that, icebreaking. Its mountainous areas typically retain snow well into the spring, feeding numerous rivers that host the majority of the local settlements and significant fish stocks. The mountainous areas are heavily wooded in most places by pines, and make for a reliable, although not world-renowned, skiing and winter sports destination. The countryside is somewhat sparsely populated, and the region is not known for is farming culture, though potatoes and other hardy vegetables do grow reasonably well. Some segments of the lithosphere present are volcanic, but no serious eruptions have occurred within the last several centuries and none are predicted within the foreseeable future. Earthquakes and mudslides, as well as avalanches in the higher areas, are fairly commonplace and programs to mitigate the damages of these events are a significant social and political issue within the area. | |||

The region was first integrated into Faneria during the [[Tundra Wars]], a series of campaigns spanning over three decades by the Kingdom of the Fhainn to annex the Grand Duchy of Lyukquar and the Kingdom of Reothadt. The original casus belli of the conflict was the death of a Royal diplomat from highwaymen on the road to the Duchy's capital, Lansgadh, which was blamed on the Grand Duke. The ''Rih'' at the time, [[Sean Suthar-Màrtainn]], had been attempting to cause friction between the states for some time, and while the claim of deliberate assassination was a thin pretext at best, he had his own levies to rely on along with raising troops from Connsmonan and Haibnelann, the latter of which had been annexed in 1691 with the exception of the Duchy of the Wash, which had continued resisting through March of 1698, when Lyukquar became involved. For its part, Lyukquar had been supplying The Wash in a bid to prevent Royal attentions against itself. The declaration of war against the Grand Duchy was generally considered unlikely, as unlike Reothadt, its army had (albeit dated) cannon and a small corps of professional soldiery, and the campaigning previously shown by Faneria had been incredibly lackluster and slow considering its manpower and theoretical technological advantage | |||
[[Sean Suthar-Màrtainn]] formally declared war on the 9th of March, raising personal levies and gathering his standing troops to form a separate army from the Vicarial levies containing the rebellion in Reothadt. In a shocking display of competence, he lead his men through the Deamhainn mountains rather than making the long trek to the west around them, marching onto the northern plains behind the assembled Lyukqui army and sacking the city of Geoghegan before marching on Lansgadh. The Grand Duke fled, meeting up with his army as his capital surrendered and returning to retake it. By then, the Fanerian army had moved west to try and intercept, and the two forces managed to miss each other entirely, with Lansgadh being liberated in August. ''Rih'' Sean then changed tact, signing a peace agreement with the Grand Duke in exchange for a halt to the support being given to The Wash. | |||
''Rih'' Sean died of a pneumonic illness in 1700 contracted while on campaign, and had no male heirs, passing his crown to his daughter [[Sear Mari Suthar-Màrtainn|Sear Mari]]. Sear was eager to finish the campaigns in the north and handling a succession crisis at home, but her father's army was still present and cleaning up the largest spots of rebel activity in 1701. The ''Banrih'' placed the Army of the North under the command of General Connal Mayes and commanded him to invade Lyukquar without pretext, leading to the Battle of Feldsdún in 1702 and the First and Second Battles of Lansgadh in 1702-1703, followed by an eight-month siege of the capital. | |||
Peace negotiations occurred after the Grand Duke was killed by one of his sons, (name here), who was given rulership of the Vicariate of Lyukquar in the throne's name and spent the next twenty years piecing together the remaining areas of Lyukquar to enforce that legal fiction as a de-facto king in his own right. During the [[Sutharine Succession Crisis]], he was a staunch supporter of the Suthar-Màrtainn line, converted from the local (protestant type here) sect to Catholicism, and ensured his Vicariate was awarded with trade and legal privileges beyond most Vicariates and dubbed a 'subservient state' rather than a formal territory of Faneria. | |||
