 ===== History =====
-One of the youngest realms of the Empire and the newest Kingdom, Wysteria is a vision of freedom, democracy, and social experimentation that has experienced much in its short time. While lacking the centuries shared by some its fellow Kingdoms, Wysteria's own history has forged a unique path and earnt a place in the annals of Imperial history.

 **Pre-Settlement and Founding of Wysteria**
-For much of the history of the New World, the south-eastern corner of the charted world remained subject to no legal claims and only loosely explored by the Empire's scouts. While settlements such as would become Caekka and the G.R.H.H began to appear on the fertile south-eastern coasts of the Imperial Ocean, no major settlements were undertaken far inland; apart from a failed settlement attempt in the obscure Ordet-Smi Commonwealth, the area - a den of twisting rivers and thick forest - remained home to various elusive tribes and went virtually unexplored throughout the majority of the Cycle of the Dragon.

 In the last years of the Cycle of the Dragon, Duke of the Ertian Duchy of Laborate Nicholas I begins to discuss the possibility of setting up an independent realm in which to pursue his vision of governance and worker's relations. Ertian scouts begin examining areas of the Empire not yet claimed by burgeoning realms; the south-eastern corner is recognized as one of the few remaining isolated areas boasting a quick maritime connection to the Imperial Ocean. In the last mercannum of the Cycle of the Dragon, Nicholas receives permission from Ertian King Arjen IV and the Council of the Crowned in establishing an independent county in the south-eastern corner; a small band of majority-Ertian settlers including Count Merry accompany the Duke in the founding of the realm of Wysteria. The name is taken from the old Ertian slang //Wystful// - to express hope for the future; ground is broken in the coastal city of Gallen in the first year of the Cycle of the Phoenix.
