Giulia
Giulia, a nation of free thinkers and philosophers, Archduchy over Contia and Bolnia, and longstanding ally of Pieno, was once a far greater nation.
Spanning the whole southern border of Achi, including the northern half of Lake Lakosha and the Stormy Inlet coastline, indeed it had a border with Senvilterre!
Things changed after the siege of Iztia (Now Izmitliski). Many citizens petitioned for the city to surrender, preferring Achi rule to that of the Archduke. In order to prevent a riot, the Archduke conceded to the demands, and the city was taken by the invading force.
In order to keep control of other cities which may wish to rebel or turncoat, legislation was drafted to allow any five connected cities to declare succession from the crown, with varying levels of exit.
Pieno had a hard exit, building a large standing guard once free of Giulian command.
Contia had a softer exit, still swearing fealty to the Archduke, but as a separate state in the commonwealth.
Bolnia barely pulled together enough burgs to allow for a succession, before swiftly becoming a neutral port and tax haven, while still holding strong alliance with Giulia as a vassal state.
