Kingdom Name:
The Kingdom of Navaren
Religion:
Mostly native religion, with a significant minority of Aed worhsippers, who, while without the over arching Vaekirate and it's infrastructure, have been drawn towards heresy due to a lack of something to hold them together in their belief. They have little political significance, but their growing numbers and potential external support may force the situation to a head. Many still remember when occupying forces attempted to make Aed the dominant religion, and that sort of external influence is much despised.
The Navaren Orthodoxia, is the official religion. It is usually called 'paganism', 'folk worship', or 'Sylphan worship' by outsiders.
History:
The recent history of Navaren is one that's filled with repeated occupations, the destruction of entire generations of able-bodied males, and the complete halting of much of the independent cultural and societal changes that every state needs to separate itself from the next state over. Within the last half a century, two occupations, intense repression of cultural and religious values, and intense depopulation from war and famine have led to a very different Sylph state than the one from before.
After the Second Great War in the North, where Navaren and her allies joined together to hopefully dismantle the great Empire resulting only in the destruction of huge swathes of northern territory and the slow breaking down of the Empire by itself, the newly independent state saw itself with a great deal to fix, and not much to work with. The significant dearth in population had led to a nearly radical campaign for an increase in the fertility rate, for the long-term survival of the Sylphan nation. This led to the current state, where an overwhelmingly large portion of the population is incredibly young. This has led to basic age related increases in things like crime, religious radicalism and jingoism, but also a need for better education and infrastructure. Outside of the capitol of the nation, which has seen much of it's former glory restored, the nation is still remarkably poor, with signs of burnt villages and formerly fertile fields untended across much of the nation.
Revanchism is incredibly popular, with a near fever pitch reached in the nation for revenge against the forces that only a few decades before had decimated the population and removed much of it's wealth and glory. Loyalists to the southern nation are reviled openly, with residents from those nations being targeted for racial violence frequently. It's been kept out of being officially politically sanctioned, but the need for some kind of satisfaction needs to be dealt with.
