The Anathelian Uprising
RevolutionHierophantya Eike Debora of the church of Tarrinda led the troops of the Anathelian nobility in a rebellion against the Coruscating Throne. The centralization of power in Milasylla and the use of Anathelian troops to suppress religious protests had not sat well with much of Anathelas. The aftermath of the failed uprising had lasting effects on the people of the empire. The Imperial Church was embraced by the empire as the state faith, while membership in one of the “lesser faiths” was discouraged by the throne. Additionally, nobles were forbidden from maintaining their own armies.
