United Kingdom of Furyondy
Upon his(Thrommel's) marriage to Jolene of Veluna, the two states would have become a joint entity, the Archcleric ruling in matters spiritual, and the Prince(ascending the throne to become King) ruling in matters temporal." ---A Guide to the World of Greyhawk Fanstasy Setting(1983), p. 11
History
In 569 CY, when the Horde of Elemen-
tal Evil threatened Verbobonc. After that victory for
the forces of weal, talk soon spread of plans of marriage between the wealthy young Supreme Mistressof the Order, Jolene of Samprastadar, and Prince Thrommel IV, hero of Emridy Meadows.
As an independent nation maintained on its own terms, Veluna forged stronger relations with Verbobonc and Furyondy.
The year 573 CY, however, brought grim news.
While campaigning in the south, Prince Thrommel
vanished without a trace. Courtiers in the Celestial
Order claimed the abduction to be the work of the
Scarlet Brotherhood, who had recently revealed
themselves in the distant south. Jolene withdrew
from the public eye in shock and sorrow, and talk of
reunification ceased.
All hope indeed seemed lost. But then in 576 CE a miracle seemed to occur. All Met in Hommlet was exploring the Temple of Elemental Evil as it seemed there was still activity there. Within, sealed within a chamber, under the illusion of being a staked Vampire, Draccona discovered the suspended body of Prince Thrommel.
The adventurers dropped everything to escort Prince Thrommel out of the complex.
There was great joy in Veluna and Furyondy, upon his return. When her Ladyship heard of his return, they renewed their courtship. Much fanfare was celebrated throughout both nations.
On the 28th of Flocktime they were wed. A month later Prince Thrommel was Coronated as KingThrommel IV, and his lady became Queen Archcleric Jolene of Furyondy. He ruling in matters Temporal and she ruling in matters spiritual.
