Empire of Reld

History: The Empire of Reld is the oldest human nation in the world. Founded in the year 700 when a bunch of tribes of humans united under one Republic. They ruled prosperously for awhile before things started going downhill. The senators bickered with each other over everything and nothing got accomplished while the poor starved. The soon-to-be Emperor, Dalastad, rose with the armies of the people behind him and was crowned Emperor. However he decided to keep the Senate as a way for the people to represent themselves, while he himself would step in if things were not happening as needed. Under the Empire, Reld expanded exponentially and grew in power and wealth. However not all was to last, and one of the Dukes broke off from the Empire after a brief war creating the Duchy of Tataeria. Since then the Senate has been disbanded and replaced with the Council of Lords which has ten members. They act as a council that meets to discuss the most important matters of the realm to the Emperor. Recently, Emperor Galastad Lightningspear led a coup against the incompetent Darius. He defeated Darius' honor guard by himself. Galastad defeated the former Emperor and was crowned Emperor himself. Since then Reld has been on the rise again.
