Religion:The Six GodsThe Ishillia Empire follows the ancient belief of the Six Gods. While many countries now follow only one of the Six, being either: Ariana - "God of Death," Toobu - "God of War," Wyland - "God of Magic," Orsi - "God of Life," Valen - "God of Honor," Elyse - "God of Power," Ishillia has a system set up of worshipping all Six equally. They claim to be the oldest of the empires and, therefore, the oldest followers of the True Faith. It is speculated that this is mostly because they claim that all Six of the God Artifacts inherently belong to them..

Brief History:

The Empire was established in the year AE 1099 after more than 20 years of warring and fighting over the broken pieces of the Vasa Empire that preceded it. As your humble historian, I must mention that we know very little of the reasons the Vasa Empire fell, and we know even less how life was before Ishillia IHis original name was lost to time.unified the remaining regions and began expanding their borders. The main reason behind this is the simple fact that the First Emperor did all that was in his power to eliminate all knowledge and try to wipe the memory of the Vasa's line from the annals of history. Nobody could give an answer to the question 'why,' not even your humble historian. All those who followed him on the throne continued expanding their territories, erasing more and more of the Vasa's historyWe aren't sure if their empire was called 'Vasa Empire.' There is a high probability that it wasn't. Also, we can't tell if the name 'Vasa' was their last ruler's name, their family name, or just their title..

The continual expansion of the Ishillia Empire ensures that all of their neighbors look at them with wary eyes, and most of the borders are perpetually closed. There are only two exceptions to this:

The Geth Empire's power rivals the Ishillia Empire, and their borders saw the smallest amount of warfareThis mostly comes down to the fact that both empires are in possession of a Godly Artifact. The Ishillia Empire has the Spear of Death, while the Geth Empire holds the Medallion of Life.. To maintain a somewhat cordial appearance, permits exist to let trusted families of both empires trade with each other.

The Kingdom of Clauria can thank its position for its relative peace, although its borders are mostly closed off towards both the Geth Empire and the Ishillia EmpireThere are 6 established openings that can be used for authorized trading between the countries.. Whichever empire tried to attack them would open them up for the other to move against them. With the Kingdom of Nonia's backing, there is a very thin balance being kept on the western end of the continent.

The same can't be said of the eastern and southern sides of Ishillia, where wars are a regular occurrence, and the kingdoms bordering Ishilla have been shrinking constantly as it continues to expand century after century. In our current years, the expansion of the Ishillia Empire finally seems to be slowing down. The attacked kingdoms found support from neighboring powers and began pushing back hard enough to halt the armies chipping away at their borders. As to how it will evolve as time goes on, it is yet to be seen.
