History
The Commonwealth had quite never recovered from the burning of Ves: losing most of its population due to resettlement and the political chaos that had ensued. Only after its founding in 1756, did the first signs of recovery appear in this young capital city. Shortly after its founding, Kaedrin had ridden itself from 'the mad Duke' Leopold Guy Helvets and welcomed a new generation of political figures that could establish a cohesive order. Archchancellor Simon Basrid had appointed Henry Frederick Helvets as the new Governor-General around the same time that His Holiness James II had entrusted Krisztián Mátyás Károly with the diocese of Ves: these two quickly sought the aid of prominent agrarian Mariana Dubois and the Count of Rochefort Richard Victor Helvets, who were deemed highly diligent and competent. They formed an informal government around the successor to Leopold, Duke Henry Frederick Helvets of Cathalon. Historians deem this the first successor government to Leopold's, although no official declaration of forming this government had existed.
