Boretheraa/Aethordraa

''This page is about the nation formed by Horgath Gathian-Aydombiel. For the province of Aethordaa, see here.''

Boretheraa was the first major secession from Haleglar since Gascony, five hundred years before. It began when Governor Horgath of Aethordraa balked against the new policies and changes in government made by King Oriathon V. This led to Aethordraa and Boeraa moving for independence, which eventually led to war with Haleglar, though it was subdued by the other wars Haleglar was engaged in. The two provinces ended up being recognized by Haleglar and formed the nation of Boretheraa. As other nations began breaking from Haleglar, Boretheraa was quick to make alliances with them, and soon it became apparent that the Western Nations were all in opposition to Haleglar, enough so that they made no effort to help when it was conquered by the Costaratan Empire. In 1882 Boeraa split from Aethordraa and would remain an antagonist to it ever after. Throughout the 1900s Aethordraa lost more and more of its allies to Eastern power and influence and by 2000 was estranged even from Thargeld. By 2003 it was facing civil war set off by dynastic turmoil and the nation split in two. A few decades later both pieces of Aethordraa ceased to exist.

Boretheraa was a monarchy, like Haleglar, though it stood by a more provincally centered government, much like the one Haleglar had recently abandoned. As time went on and provinces were lost (most notably Boeraa, causing the change in name), Aethordraa became more capital-centered, and went in a similar direction to its neighbor Thargeld, with an elected Senate that was entirely separate from the provincal or local governments. Though, unlike Thargled, Aethordraa retained its monarchy.
