History
The Beginning
In the beginning The Great Commonwealth was not called The Great Commonwealth nor did any form of it exist. It was made up of lords. These lords controlled their own land, made their own laws and controlled the people they ruled over. All the Lords were dictactors and ruled their people with an iron fist. There were many revolutions against the lords. Most were stampted out with force but one was sucessful. This revolution has come to be known as the "Great Revolution" The revolution started in 1134AD when George White, a Peasant, was attacked by guards for not paying the unfair taxes imposed by the Lord, Lord Richmond. Other peseants joined in the fight and killed the two guards. As word of this act spread pockets of resistance opened up all over the province of Richmond. Eventually these pockets came together, with George White as their leader. They knew that they would never be truly free untill the Lord was dead and his castle, Castle Robinbreast, was captured. The resistance built catapults and made swords and shields, they trained day and night. When they were ready they attacked. On May 2nd 1145 the attack came. Just before the battle a messenger was sent with a note. This is what we now think it contained:
[i]"Before you is the army of those you have supressed, we are the army of liberty and justice. Allow all men to live without your influence and no more blood need be spilt. Justice will prevail"
The messenger was killed. At the break of day the Resistance stormed the castle and after a long and bloody battle they took the keep. By the end the Lord lay at George White's feet, dead. Now the region must be rebuilt.
