History WIP

818- Jarl Thorstein “the c*nt” Ragnhildsson land with 600 men on the coast of Midarayne. There, they loot and pillage the local settlements, before they return back to their ships. They discover with shock that their ships have mysteriously disappeared overnight, and eventually begin to create a permanent norse settlement there.

820- The Jarldom of Sludderland is firmly established, local tribes are brought under control.

820-1066- The invaders begin to gradually assimilate into the culture they find themselves in, whilst their serfs begin to adapt to their new overlords. The language of the invaders begins to fade and be replaced by the local language, yet place names still retain their names. The birth of the hybrid culture becomes complete around 1066.

1086-1131- Ragnar “the Sword of Allah” Vidarsson launches a brutal campaign against neighbouring tribes, greatly expanding the Jarldom’s power of influence. Part way through the campaign, he is successfully converted to Islam by a man recorded as Mohammed Alladdin, His new faith prove deeply unpopular with his vassals, and many attempted to assassinate him. Despite this, he survived dozens of attempts on his life and forged Islam into the hearts of many of his vassals and family members. He was eventually cut down on a chaotic battlefield.

1190- Mohammed Ragnarsson dies of his old age. Never producing any male heirs, his death brings the ruling dynasty of Sludderland to an end, and a brutal civil war erupts. Emerging triumphant at the end of it is X, a manist. Forcing most of the nation to convert at the point of the sword. This marked the beginning of Manist rule in Sludderland.

1891- A rebellion of the gentry leads to the creation of a constitutional monarchy

1901- The monarchy collapsed after the royal family perished from a short lived smallpox epidemic. A formalised democracy is created, however only dedicated manists can be potentially elected.

2021- A slave uprising results in a civil war as they begin to get backed by the many muslims of the nation opposed to manism. The war is further added to, as the command of the United Communist Sludderland Liberation Army (UCSLA) is usurped by Soheil Najafisson from Mahdi Farzinsson, moving from its attempt to gain power through the democratic process and instead move to attempting to win the civil war.

The Civil War



Brief overview of factions
CRUST (Communo-Republican United Sludderland Territories)
Head of faction: Premier Soheil Najafisson
A group of militant Marxist-Leninists, lead by Soheil Najafisson. Though originally a peaceful group that attempted to win the Sludderland election, the previous leader was killed by Soheil, who had been rapidly rising through the ranks due to his charisma and band of loyal supporters. Under Soheil, CRUST gained more and more members, however (despite the group's stated goal and ideology) most were violent thugs or even fascists who joined in the novel ideal of gaining power after their victory.
Soheil himself is an outspoken Marxist-Leninist in public, saying all the right things and catchphrases. However, privately, he and his inner circle are nothing more than opportunists. He himself has never read a word of marxist, stalinist or any other vaguely left-wing writings. Several of his inner circle are more happy with books from the other extreme of the spectrum, such as writings by Benito Mussolini.

Government
Head of faction: President Ali Baghersson
The official and legal government of Sludderland, the nation is lead by President Ali Baghersson, voted into power upon the early death of his predecessor. Under his reign the slave revolt blossomed and took hold, and now it is up to him to put it down, as well as the communists. Assisting him is Chancellor Arash Narasson, his faithful and loyal friend.

SLAM (Slave Liberation Army of Midarayne)
Head of faction: Provisional General Secretary Muhammad Ali
The slave revolt was a success. Armed with weapons, supported with vehicles and assisted with intel (all supplied by many of the group's backers) the slaves that rose up in the revolt headed towards the meeting place. Though many were stopped, killed or imprisoned, a large amount arrived in the East. There, their backers joined them, groups such as the Ragnarssons; the Quidists; and the Axids to name a few. The former-slaves were organised based off their skills and place of residency. Soon, the SLAM had captured dozens more cities, and were pushing further west.
