The Royal Empire

The Royal Empire is one of the most famous empires. Having been founded on 397 AF, by King Ethan I, the Empire would take up a majority of the eastern coast of Kal'andria. However, it would fall due to civil strife, ending a great nation.

Founding
The Royal Empire didn't start out as an empire, rather it was built into an empire. After the Old Empire fell, complete chaos took the continent by storm. Through the 300 year period, one man saw his potential. King Ethan saw what could be and how to achieve that. He started a War of Conquest and managed to snatch up over 200 square miles of the Southern Peninsula. This was the Beginning of the Royal Empire.

Expansion
The Empire Slowly expanded after the Death of Ethan I. It would eventually conquer the entirety of the Southern Peninsula under the Reign of King Alexander II, the Conqueror. Alexander would put the Empire on the World stage and had put up many puppets along the eastern coast, all of which would eventually capitulate to the empire and be annexed. Expansion would eventually slow due to The Great Schism.
