History Of BlarneyStonia

Originally founded by a collection of indigenous tribes, BlarneyStonia spent several decades as a vassal state of the Violence And Chaos dictatorship. The Royal Family ruled in exile until a revolution in late November of 2005 reinstated the McCale clan as the true rulers of BlarneyStonia.

Original Inhabitants

The area where now the political unit of BlarneyStonia sits was originally inhabited by several Celtic tribes. Although there are only five traditionally recognized tribes, recent archeological finds indicate there may have been as many and twenty-three tribes during various prehistoric eras. It is known for certain, however, that as of C.E. 229 there were only five tribes remaining to come together to form the predecessor of BlarneyStonia. This state remained unchanged for nearly a thousand years. In 1215, both political and military pressure forced the coalition of tribes to solidify into what would become the modern Blarneystonia.

The Royal Family

The newly formed nation needed a commonly respected, legitimate authority for the disparate peoples to follow. The tribal heads unanimously selected Evrik McCale, the ruler of the small feif of South End. A patrilinear monarchy was founded around the McCale clan, that to this day has not changed.

BlarneyStonia Under VAC Rule

In 1945, shortly after the end of World War II, BlarneyStonia's neighbor state, the Most Serene Republic of Violence and Chaos, took control after an assault on the Royal Household in BlarnyStonia City. The VAC's coup d'etat was only partially successful; the country had fallen, but the royal family had escaped and had set up a Government in Exile. For sixty years, the Blarnians had to endure the oppression of VAC's despotic rule. However, when VAC's ruler died suddenly in early November of 2005, the Blarnian people took advantage of the sudden internal power struggle of their foreign overlords to break away, and call back the McCales from exile to rightfully rule once more.

BlarneyStonia Today

The nation is now rightfully under His Imperial Majesty, The Rightful King John McCale III.
