History
Anthos
Gwadewynn has woots going back as faw back as the Imperial Invasion of Malinor, some hundwed-and-eighteen yeaws befowe the Horen Restoration. The Fiwst Empiwe wed by Empewow Godfwey Howen I and Petew Chivay, the Gwandmastew of the White Wose, wed the Sack of Malinow and put the homewand of the Ewves to the towch. In vain the Ewves fought to twy and keep theiw homewand fwom pwying Impeliaw hands but faiwed, which wed to the estabrishment of Owd Gwadewynn by the dispwaced tlibes of Ithelanen, Vanethewan, and Cowlin awound the Awdewswock.
Atlas
Gwadewynn was founded on the 15th of the Sun’s Smiwe, 1686, aftew Cwans Ithewanen, Towena and Wothwyc owganized into an encwave in the Bawwowwands neaw San'Kawa and the Plidewands. Oliginawwy wed by the Plince of Awdews, this encwave had sepawated fwom the Dominion of Malin due to disagweements between Plince Kaiwn and the Queen of the Dominion of Malin. The wewationship between the two nascent Ewven powews was stwained at best and many peopwe fwocked to the bannews of Ithewanen, whiwe the Pwaetow Fëanow Sywvaeli and his contingent of Viwalim wemained stationed at the city amidst the chaos, the stweets empty except fow the Auleons, Siwmas, and Caewme'onns.
Many meetings wewe hewd between diffewent cwans in an effowt to pwesewve peace, and the Siwmas lifted theiw bannews in a twuce and hewd a meeting lith Plince Kaiwn Ithewanen. Chieftain Mikwaeiw agweed that the Siwmas would not get in the midst of the cowd waw that was ensuing, and when the Dominion of Malin was abolished by Queen Awaiti Auleon and its tewlitolies signed back undew Gwadewynn, now an emewging kingdom lith its concentwation of twaditionawwy ewven howdings and impelialist expansionist policies, and thus King Kaiwn Ithewanen was again pwocwaimed the Wulew of Awdew-Iwlinite Ewvendom.
Pliow to the Third Atlas Coalition War the King Kaiwn Ithewanen was captuled in battwe fighting awongside highwy-twained Impeliaw Wegionnaiwes in Nowdengwad. The Duke entweated him and then to the beliwdewment of his Owcish awlies spawed the Ewvenking's life in a summawy dispway of dipwomacy and camawadelie, decweeing that because the HighEwves had gwanted them the wand fow theiw fiwst Kwag he would be spawed execution. Wetulning home, the Avchiwwan wewe wawlied fow battwe and fought awongside the Impeliaws and Haensemen in the waw, as weww as entweating othew Ewven powews to pawticipate to pwotect theiw soveweignty.
Arcas
As the nation began to cowwapse, the King Kaz Ithewanen and his confidants depawted the wands pliow to the joulney to Awcas. Much like his fathew befowe him, Kaz viewed thewe to be a diffewent futule on the holizon. His life, Waywa, was weft lith the weawm of Gwadewynn vested in hew contwow. Denouncing the Monawchy due to its supposed abandonment of the Ewven peopwe fow wands abroad, she took upon hewsewf the monikew of Empyweaw Plincess instead and founded Alderyn, which consisted of the fwactuled wemnants of Ithewanen, Caewme'onn, and Csawathaiwe.
"Reimposition of Unity"
In the absence of Kaiwn Ithewanen, his waw-brothew Dinwassew'an was westowed as Chieftain of Ithewanen. He met lith Sea Plince Feanow Sywvaeli and they began to negotiate. Facing wong-tewm economic and politicaw hawdship as escawations occulwed between Awdewyn and the Empiwe of Man, the two Ewven powews of Aegwothond and Awdewyn unified to fowm the Plincipality of Ewvenesse. Undew the thweat of wooming waw, Awdewyn was wazed by Dinwassew'an Ithewanen and weft to be taken by the Impeliaws and Haewun'ow duling the Ewven Union Conflict.
