The Kingdom of Curonian first started as the County of Cyrilsburg under the rule of Count Wilhelm I Devereux. After a golden age set in within the County’s lands, its status was elevated to that of a Dukedom where it received the new title, the Duchy of Curon. As the years went on and the new Duchy continued to grow and expand its wealth and power throughout the lands of Atlas, Emperor Augustus I saw it fit to further promote the Duchy to the rank of a Kingdom after Curon’s decisive victory against the Duchy of Adria in the Gentleman's War of 1700. The ceremony was performed in the Blessed Cathedral of Saint Johannes in Cyrilsburg, on looked by a large crowd of both Imperial, Curonian, Haenseti, and Adrian nobility and citizens. From that moment on, the nation became known as the Kingdom of Curonia. | The Kingdom of Curonian first started as the County of Cyrilsburg under the rule of Count Wilhelm I Devereux.

---|---|---|---|
|
The Kingdom of Curonian is situated in the Snowy Northeastern regions of Arcas. The capital city of Avalain is a true splendor to behold with its towering structures and powerful defenses. The Curonian people are a vast and diverse group housing almost every form of the race on the continent. Human, Elf, Orc, Dwed, and so on, all are welcome within the Kingdoms cities and lands to live.
The Kingdom is ruled on a system of primogeniture succession, meaning that the Kingdom will always be governed by a King who will then be succeeded by his eldest son. No daughter or woman of the royal house shall ever inherit the throne, title, or lands of the Kingdom. The Curonian Council surrounds the King. This council is made up out of leading individuals in all aspects of leadership, namely the Military, Navy, Mayoral office, Stewardry and Ambassadorship relations. The Kingdom of Curonian first started as the County of Cyrilsburg under the rule of Count Wilhelm I Devereux. After a golden age set in within the County’s lands, its status was elevated to that of a Dukedom where it received the new title, the Duchy of Curon. As the years went on and the new Duchy continued to grow and expand its wealth and power throughout the lands of Atlas, Emperor Augustus I saw it fit to further promote the Duchy to the rank of a Kingdom after Curon’s decisive victory against the Duchy of Adria in the Gentleman's War of 1700. The ceremony was performed in the Blessed Cathedral of Saint Johannes in Cyrilsburg, on looked by a large crowd of both Imperial, Curonian, Haenseti, and Adrian nobility and citizens. From that moment on, the nation became known as the Kingdom of Curonia. | ||
