The Wehlen Civil War

The Wehlen Civil War, a brutal conflict lasting two decades in the mid-20th century, caused widespread suffering with starvation, disease, and genocide. Seen as a proxy war between Arcasia and United Contana, it erupted due to a left-wing militia's emergence near Wehlen's Sordish border. Wehlen's plea for Arcasian assistance failed to avert economic collapse, as trade routes were severed, exacerbating the crisis. Neighboring nations sealed their borders, escalating tensions. Arcasian forces found themselves besieged and outnumbered by Contanan-backed militias, leading to urban warfare and a harrowing refugee crisis. The majority of neighboring countries turned away Wehlen refugees, culminating in the infamous "death march,”during which thousands perished.


In 1932, Wehlen's government was reinstated, leading the evacuation of Arcasian troops. Despite subsequent leadership under President Smolak and assistance from United Contana, the nation struggled with political and ethnic unrest, earning the label of a failed state. The repercussions of the Civil War continues to influence Wehlen's path into the 20th century, as the nation is still confronted with a fragile economy and restricted civil rights and political freedoms.

The Uprising of 1926

The 1926 Uprising was the largest attempt in history to overthrow the Rizian monarchy. It began with a naval mutiny against King Valero's orders, supported by a coalition of pro-democracy movements. Rebels seized cities, including Montaklar, where reigning Duke Ferran Azaro was killed. Among the leaders of the rebellion was Duke Lucas of House Sazon, who co-orchestrated the kidnapping of royal heir Romus Toras to force the King to cooperate. King Valero sought Wehlen's help, resulting in the transfer of the territory of Zille. Wehlen's troops defeated the rebels with the help of the remaining loyalists to the throne. The kidnappers were apprehended and executed, with Lucas Sazon’s pregnant wife Angelica sent into exile on the Island of Caleqabiz. Hugo Toras, brother of King Valero, assumed stewardship of Iza in the Sazons’ absence.



As a concession, the King established a symbolic parliament called the "House of Delegates", consisting mostly of hand-picked representatives from nationalist/monarchist factions. The military leadership underwent a near-entire purge, with officials from or loyal to House Azaro taking most of the top positions.

Grand Vizier Hugo Toras

Hugo Toras is the younger brother of the late Rizian king Valero Toras and the uncle of the current king Romus Toras. He serves on the Royal Council as Grand Vizier and holds the titles of Duke of Valenqiris and Duke of Iza.

He accompanied his mother Queen Lyza Toras on royal visits from a young age. After studying at Benievon Academy in Valenqiris, he became a royal ambassador with the Ariana Toras Association, promoting the Rizian language and values in Rika and Xina. He returned to Rizia upon the death of Queen Lyza and the ascension of his brother to the throne, becoming the ruling Duke of Valenqiris in Valero's stead.



As Duke, he steered clear of the limelight, avoiding the press and marrying his wife Rita in a small, closed ceremony. He assumed the title of Duke of Iza when he and his family were sent to the city to restore control after the 1926 uprising. In 1948, he was summoned to Porte Drazon by King Valero to replace his just-fired Grand Vizier. Since assuming that position, he has been a behind-the-scenes figure in the capital, appearing in public only on formal occasions.

Grand Duchy of Pales Proclaims Independence!

PALES – In a significant move, the onetime Valgish colony of Pales, led by Duke Otto Reinhart III, declared itself an independent Grand Duchy today. This declaration, a result of over a year of political and diplomatic maneuvering, marks a new chapter in the region's history following the tumultuous collapse of the Valgos Empire.

Pales, known for its strategic importance and rich natural resources, was claimed from Rizia by the Valgs in the late 17th century, expanding its territory in 1805 as a consequence of the War of Rizian Succession. While many expected that the peninsula would simply rejoin Rizia after the Valgos Empire succumbed to revolution, the Reinharts seem to have other plans.


The Grand Duke's speech, focusing on themes of freedom and progress, was met with public celebration as the Pales national flag was raised for the first time. While the Kingdom of Rizia has yet to respond formally, the move by Pales adds to the reshaping of the Merkopan borders and alliances in the aftermath of the war. The world watches as Pales steps into an era of self-determination and sovereignty.

King Valero “The Frail” Toras (1881-1949) was the reigning monarch of Rizia from 1918 until his death.

The oldest child of Queen Lyza Toras, he opted to attend Iza University rather than serve on his mother’s council. There, he gained notoriety for his drunken exploits, often carried out in the company of an entourage that the press nicknamed the “Princely Posse”. One such adventure resulted in his whirlwind romance with commoner Estela Bartos, whom he married in 1903.

After Valero’s graduation, he moved with Estela to Monqiz, where he reigned as Duke during the largely peaceful last years of the Lyzian era. Upon his mother’s death in 1918, he ascended to the throne in a ceremony protested by those who questioned his legitimacy and that of the Rizian monarchy. Cynics have claimed that he mounted Rizia’s subsequent military campaign on Pales as a distraction from these concerns.



While many never forgave King Valero for the failed Pales campaign, the 1926 uprising, and the 1927 Zille Agreement, his popularity was boosted in the following years by the establishment of the House of Delegates as well as Rizia’s alliance with Rumburg and the resulting years of trade prosperity. However, despite the kingdom’s seeming recovery, Valero remained paranoid of threats and reluctant to spend his mounting budget surplus. Rizia slipped into stagnation during the last decade of his reign, earning him his “The Frail” moniker.

He passed away from a reported heart attack in 1949 and was succeeded by his son, Romus Toras.

✨ Queen Mother Estela Toras ✨

From the humble shores of Zille to the grand halls of Rizian Royalty, the story of Queen Mother Estela Toras (née Bartos) is nothing short of a fairy tale.

Born into a fishing family, Estela's early life was far from the opulence of royalty. Yet, destiny had its plans. Moving to Porte Drazon in her teens, she worked as a waitress at the Sunset Lounge, where fate intertwined her path with Valero Toras, the heir to the Rizian throne.

Their love story broke barriers and set tongues wagging. Against all odds and amidst a whirlwind of scandal, their love triumphed.



As Queen Consort, Estela brought a breath of fresh air to the royal family. Her gregarious charm, daring fashion sense, and genuine warmth won hearts far and wide, reshaping public perception and redefining royal elegance.

Despite facing unwarranted criticism and resistance from traditionalists, her spirit remained unbroken. She continued to emanate hope and resilience, proving that true royalty comes not from bloodlines, but from the heart.

It's a woman who rose above her station, not just in status, but in grace and dignity. Queen Mother Estela Toras, is a true embodiment of the saying: "Where there is love, there is life."

🔥 The 1805 War of Rizian Succession: A Tale of Power and Betrayal 🔥

The death of King Xavi Rubaz set the stage for a legendary battle for the throne. Three heirs, each with a claim, plunged the kingdom into a historic struggle.

👸🏼 Ariana Toras: Daughter and trusted confidante of King Xavi, possessed of regal elegance and keen political instincts. With her marriage to the Toras family of Valenqiris, she commanded the naval prowess of the Valgos Empire.

👸🏻 Ana Azaro: The twin sister of Ariana, and the fire to her ice. A skilled equestrian and archer, she won national tournaments, but never the one prize she truly wanted: her father’s favor. She allied with the Duke of Montaklar in pursuit of Moridia’s power.

🤴🏻 Fedo Sazon: The firstborn son of the queen proved an unexpected contender, fueled by ambition and supported by the fading yet fierce Mousser Empire. His campaign was a wild storm, challenging the very foundations of the kingdom.


The war raged on for four long years, with each heir displaying courage and cunning. But in the end, it was Ariana and the Toras family who claimed victory, writing a new chapter in Rizia's history.
