Lucianic Confederation

Lucianic Confederation
The Lucianic Confederation is a heavily disunited collection of kingdoms loyal to their God-Emperor, Lucien Ikkin. It stretches from the eastern tip of the Alps and fills out much of the Carpathian valley, and spilling north and south, bordering Maxedon, Shenzhen and Ultimar.

The Lucianics are a very devout people comprised of zealots, crusaders and templars. The presence of their God-Emperor, Lucien Ikkin, affirms all their beliefs somewhat, however it is known that Lucien will make himself seem more important powerful in stories. The Lucianics have bred an attitude of arrogance and xenophobia in their commoners, and it is not common to be stripped of all your glory when you enter the territory. The inhabitants are all very loyal to Lucien Ikkin, so much that the most common baby names in the Land of Kings are "Lucan," "Lucie," and "Lucene."

The Lucianic Confederation is ruled by a small government situated in Nova Lucina. The court contains Lucien Ikkin along with his closest associates, such as the Head Inquisitor, Tider Ozymandias and Salvatore XIV, the Marshal. The kingdoms heavily embrace the feudal system and this leads to the cruel conscription of farmers and craftsmen in Lucianic wars. However, veterans in the Imperial Demesne have the ability to earn property and fiefs, gaining lordship. This makes the Lucianics one of the only nations in its time able to offer these privileges.

The confederation has been in a long decline of power, as in ancient times, the Lucianics used to engulf almost all of Northern and Western Europe, stretching from Idabistan to Trentica. However, internal politics split the nation into multiple parts after Lucien Ikkin was temporarily kidnapped by a nomadic host from the Trentic Steppes. The confederation is now reduced to a disunited set of Kingdoms ruled by greedy kings. The nation has been invaded, and has also returned invasions of Idabistan multiple times and many Lucianic Adventurers have made pushes into Shenzhen and Ultimar, aspiring for land.
