First Fratricide: Difference between revisions

The hundreds of principalities of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] had long been supremely individualistic throughout the history of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]]. With the outbreak of the [[Third Caroline War]] in 1843 it was increasingly clear that the princelings needed to define themselves collectively and specify what Deric means so as to safeguard against further incursions from the Kingdoms of [[Urcea]] and [[Fiannria]]. Disparate nationalist thinkers were brought together to come up with a unifying concept on the culture. The academics from the "interior" or "northern" parts of the Kingdom had much in common and started to build an identify. Those of "coastal" or "southern" principalities felt their history and cultural idioms were being steamrolled. The cultural concepts they espoused were foreign to the rest. It was much more tied to "foreign" influence, especially those of the [[Istroyan]] and [[Audonia]]n cultures. Beyond that, the interior principalities were, on average, much poorer and agrarian than those on the coast. They had a far more isolationist attitude and still resented the coastal states for, in some cases, ignoring calls to the "southern crusades" in favor of personal gain in northern [[Levantia]], specifically [[Faneria]] and [[Yonderre]].
