Overview

The Grand Empire of Magnus Valerius is the prominent power amongst the Kuric and Gedonian Continents. It consists of multiple states which where once independent kingdoms but were eventually engulfed by the rising empire centuries ago. Also known more commonly as The Valerian Empire, Magnus Valerius consists of the southwestern edge of the Kuric Continent, and several territories in the Valerian Archipelago (obviously named after the conquering empire) and on islands off the northeastern coast of the Kuric Continent.

Brief History

The southwestern partition of the Kuric Continent was a place of warring states in its early history. Around the 4th century BC, Slavic tribes invaded and literally destroyed the Democratic Republic of Thiese and substantially crushed the power of several other states that would have gained prominence in the region. Out of these Slavs emerged a small collection of duchies and city-states. The most established of these states was Isangrad, a thriving city on the River Vedus. It was Duke Valerian II (also known as Saint Valerian, 122 BC - 91 BC) who arose from the petty wars and trivial states to form the fledgling kingdom that bore his name: Valeria. His direct descendants formed a line of monarchs that would rule for nearly a millennium.
