History
Gataway was not always a sovereign nation and was for decades, a disputed territory between the Kingdom of Silvasnia and the Republic of Asgradia. However the land has always been the home of the Gatawans, who were a minority group in Asgradia and Silvasnia. After years of fighting Silvasnia and Asgradia agreed to divide the lands of Gataway, following this the Gatawans banded together and began to protest for Independance this led to several years of bloody war as both Asgradia and Silvasnia attempted to stamp out the Gatawan "rebellion." After years of fighting a guerilla war combined with terrorist assassinations of both Asgradian and Silvasnian officals the Gatawans were able to secure independance and an uneasy peace with its former rulers. Then in the year 154 A.I. ( After Independance) Asgradia began to encroach upon Gataway's lands once more thus another war broke out and following the battle of Kilnad in the Olstrum mountains the Asgradian army was trapped destroyed by the Gatawan national army and following this defeat Gatawan forces were able to over run the ill-equipped ill-trained Asgradian home guard and seize power over Asgradia
