History
The Lion Kingdom
1479 o.C. human settlements of the Middle fields founded the Lion Kingdom under King Lionell as first monarchy in human history. The following years, its military was developed to protect the borders against the Eagle Kingdom and the Black Dragon Army. During the 1490's western peasants revolted against high tax politics until the Outlaw Hills became independent. A chaotic time had come, where intrigues and murdering faced the Kingdom. Especially groups like the Wolfpack or the Black Foresters were big problems. Begin of 1507, the black dragon army failed by attacking the Lion Kingdom. The conflict should continued in the Dragon War. Lionell's son married the daughter of Mathias, the king of Eagle Kingdom. After Mathias' death, prince Leopold became the king. When Lionell died 1512, his son was able to unite both kingdoms into one.
1532 the king were murdered and underLeo I. the kingdom became stronger and stronger. It was strong enough to defend the Dragon Empire in the Battle of Deadwood 1587. After the War ended, the settlements in Deadwood were given up and a bigger colonization of the Azure Coast and along the Big River started.
Renaming and new conflicts
1606 Leo I. died and Leo III. renamed his country into Middle Kingdom. These times, the Bull's Tribe increased its influence in the Outlaw hills and try to start a war, which ended quickly 1611 in the first Siege of the fortress "Knight's Kingdom".
Culture
The first human kingdom in Northlegonia grew quickly because fruitful farms of the Middle fields and rich copper mines near Deadwood strengthened its poverty. The Lion Kingdom was feudalistic and only a few educated noble families got the luxury of big houses, land and money. The workers and farmers were poor but enjoyed life in festivals, church-visiting and knight's tournaments. The everyday life was strictly controlled and guarded by the quick developing holy church of the big Something. Settlers in the western regions felt betrayed and ignored by the king and while staying poor the continousl tax-increasing made them angry. Soon, crime started to spread.
