The Kingdom of Velade Royaum

The Kingdom of Velade Royaum was the first kingdom to form from the ashes of the first Franconian Empire. The Kingdom was first ruled by the ancient House de Royaum until the great houses extinction. The ducal house of de Beaumont rose to power with the backing of the Chamber of Nobles.

Under King Ludovic the Young (later known as the Loon) the kingdom grew from a small collection of unified Dukes to a kingdom of great power and wealth.

The Kingdom of Velade Royaum borders the Republic of Aeternia to the south, and the Greater Eisenfaust Imperium to the north.

Tradition is sacred in Velade Royaum, chivalry and noble holidays are held in high esteem.
