Eyrifjorduric Federation | Eyrifjordurbaer Ríkjabandalag
BACKGROUND
The history of
Eyrifjordur, as the country is also known, began with the settlement by explorers from Albion and Alba Karinya, in the 13th century. Eyrifjordur was still uninhabited, unlike most of Coft Aranye. The country obtained independence in 1818. After the constitutional convention of 1843, a monarchy was established and the country was renamed as the Northern Kingdom. Ulrik Vandenburg, also known as Ulrik I the Wise, became King the next year and the Vandenburg Dinasty was established, and the country expanded to southern lands. After being invaded and occupied for a few years in late 19th century, Eyrifjordur regained independence in 1901, under a second dinasty. After the 1904 political crisis, the country was split and the Republic of Narthaur (originally the United States of Narthaur) was established. In 1911, King Konrad III abdicated, and the Northern Kingdom would be abolished in 1914. The Eyrifjorduric Federation would be established in 1918, unifying the Republic of Narthaur with the former territories of the Northern Kingdom, following the approval of the Constitution of Eyrifjordur in early 1918.
Since then, the
Eyrifjorduric Federation has remained as a confederation of several territories, of which Narthaur (where is located the capital city of the federation) remains the largest and most populated one. The federal government is mostly on charge of trade, defense, and foreign policy, as every territory retains their own constitution, parliament, and regional government.
