History
The War of Many Lords
Back before Granate was a unified, there were thousands of tiny Duchies, Kingdoms, Republics that littered it's landscape. Wars between sometimes 10 groups was not uncommon. Beginning in early 1495 one of the Leaders of the Kingdom of Lucianus decided something needed to be done. So this King began to gather with him a vast force. He also worked to find Allies among his neighboring Kingdoms. Working with these kingdoms he was able to unite a large Portion of Granatian Territory. This Kingdom was called Bornsbruck, it is still called this in modern times, but as a province.
The other Lors and Kings were frightened by this one mans power. They began to work together and formed Large Kingdoms of their own. Two of these were Almsbruck and Penerbruck, which still are called this in modern times. Bornsbruck began to feel the pressure of this ever growing force of Enemies. Thus the War of the The Kingdoms began. This would last for 2 years, ending in 1497 with a victory for Bornsbruck. They began what later would be called the Subjugation of the Last Lords or as it is called in Modern Times "The War of Many Lords". In todays time we consider all this to be part of The War of Many of Lords.
The Failed Democratic Rebellion
After the War of Many Lords the Kingdom saw 6 years of unusual peace. During the era of the Lords there was wars that lasted weeks and days. Now that there wasn't any Wars happening, the Provinces saw an unacountable boon in the Harvests and Buildings were built throughout the Kingdom. There just a general feeling a good throughout the Kingdom. But this peace, was not to last. This time came to be know as the Short Peace.
In late 1503 the nation saw a rise in the general Dissenseion among the populace. The Kingdoms officials couldn't locate the source of it. The Goverment was getting a little hot under the collar seeing as this could screw up everything that the Kingdom had worked so hard to achieve. In January 1504 their fears were found to be true. Rebels who called themselves Democrats were leading rebels throughout much of the Kingdom. The problem was that many of the Democrats leaders were Former Lords who still held a large bit of power. These lords outfitted the rebels and even hired Mercenaries to fight for them. The Rebellion would last nearly a year with the signing of a Treaty that ended the rebellion, but forced the goverment to Found a Parliament so that the People's voice could be heard.
