[quote=@Gendarme] Hey [@Aristo], I've been done with the history of my nation for some time. I'm absolutely certain I can rewrite a few things, but I am wondering if it is acceptable for Reheba to have been in some regard independent or perhaps fairly autonomous when this empire was still around. Maybe it was an unruly vassal? Whatever's fine with you, I'm just thinking of a few ideas. [/quote] That'd be fine with me, considering you're off on an island. I think that we could work with you being a relatively autonomous region, while still being technically a territory of the crown. Depending on how the final turnout is reflected in the map, there will likely be some territories that have been independent. Your kingdom would probably have been and still be an important trade hub up and down the coast.
