The Confederacy

The Confederacy is regarded as a nation by the other Kingdoms of Azzaren, however citizens of the Confederacy do not. The creation of the Confederacy is debated by members of the other countries, as the actual history of the nation's creation has long been lost.

In the year of 1042 AP, the continent of Algenon was almost united underneath the banner of the Red Republic. The bloody empire had been carved from the remains of almost every other nation on the continent. The Frost Fangs stood as the last barrier before the Republic could storm the Minor States. Before the Frost Fangs could be subdued, a group of barbarian tribes stood in the way.

The story is highly disputed as to how they did it, but the end result is the same. The barbarian tribes banded together into a coalition force to beat back the Red Republic. While they were unsuccessful as far as winning went, the tribes did manage to slow the advancing armies. While the battles took place in the foothills, small strike squads advanced through the killing fields to actually assassinate generals and captains of the Red Army. The armies quickly dissolved into chaos, as it was unknown how these murders were taking place.

The squads did not stop there, and continued to the Republic capital city of Fenrhal. On the 98th day of Fall, in the year 1045 AP, the Lord-Premier of the Red Republic was killed by a group of assassins. Shortly after, the Republic disbanded its armies and signed treaties with neighboring states to restore most of their land back to them. The barbarian groups returned to the foothills of the Frost Fangs, and established their own treaties to ensure that none would ever threaten their land ever again.

Sometime around the year 1099 AP, formal houses were established in the Confederacy. House Shatterthrone, Brokenridge, Titanhand, Jaggedcrown, Stonecore, and Bloodfist are notable houses.
