The Geographical region its present in is Alcase-Lorraine, in which was once a single Kingdom, but the two have split apart into two seperate kingdoms. This followed generations of conflict while the entire region was a part of the Kingdom of Allemeni. The Allemeni ended when the Kingdom of Alcase won the civil war and became independant. Following this they moved closer to the Kingdom of Bretonia, and during the growth of Bretonia they became extremely wealthy. WIth the fall of Bretonia the Kingdom of Alcase is besieged from all sides by its enemies, and their appears little positive for this once extremely proud Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Alcase is dominated religiously by the Grand Temple of Alcase which leads the Dragonoph religion in the Kingdom of Alcase and the Dragonoph has a stranglehold over the Kingdom of Alcase. Standing beneath the Dragonoph worshipers stands the Francelli Church of Alcase which is a christian denomination ruling over western Alcase where it holds majorities in several counties and two dutchies marking it as an influential mover in the Kingdom of Alcase but far beneath the Dragonoph Temple. The final element of the religious picture in the kingdom of Alcase stands the High Temple of the True Lords of Allemeni which is a temple that venerates the worship of the Frankish Pantheon and they have followers all across the Kingdom of Alcase but are only truly numerous in the dutchy of Lower Alcase where they are the sole religion in that dutchy.
   
 
The current King is [[Fabin Von Orsinio]] a man that is universally loved in Alcase as a great king with nothing but the greatness of Alcase on his mind. Under the rule of the King of Alcase their is a monarchy filled feudilism at play and he is all powerful controlling all decisions outside the internal decisions of his lords. The Lords inherit their positions from birth in much the same way as the Kingdom of Lucerne, and the king of Alcase is the only man who can take away the control of a Lord.

The Kingdom of Alcase maitains a military based on normal feudal vassalage system but alongside this there are two standing armies maintained by the kingdom itself in the form of the First Strasburg Army, and the Second Strasburg army and these two forces are regulated at five thousand strong and maintain absolute loyalty to the state.
In prehistoric times, Alsace was inhabited by nomadic hunters, but by (Find Date), Burgundians, and Anglos began to settle in Alcase, clearing and cultivating the land. By (Find Date), the Numenor's had invaded and established Alcase as a center of viticulture. To protect this highly valued industry, the Numenor Empire built fortifications and military camps that evolved into various communities which have been inhabited continuously to the present day. While part of the Numenor Empire, Alsace was part of Germania Superior. During this time the entire region was dominated by the Teutons despite the fact that they were dramatically outnumbered by the Burgundians, and the Frankish. With the fall of the Empire of Numeron the regions Teutons found that there mastery of the region was about to be questioned. During the time of the Numenorians they were able to ofset the huge population differences by the excistence of the massive armies of the Numenorians but as the armies left so to did their wild card. The Burgundians of Alcase would form alongside the region of Lorraine the large Kingdom of Alemeni of which would be capable due to its massive size and population to resist the growing Teutonic threat to their north.

With the fall of the Empire of Numeron the regions Teutons found that there mastery of the region was about to be questioned. During the time of the Numenorians they were able to ofset the huge population differences by the excistence of the massive armies of the Numenorians but as the armies left so to did their wild card. The Teutons were not oblivious to this though, and they found support financially from their cousins in the growing regions of Germany, who were even more imperialistic back then if that seems possible. With this financial backing the Teutons of the region attempted to heavily finance a fight between the two largest groups of the region in the Frankish, and the Burgundians. The Teutons once again attempted to side with the smaller of the two in the Burgundians, and this led to the extreme fighting between the two forces. The Burgundians even though they were smaller were able to use their financial and physical support from the Teutons to slowly push the Frankish westward out of the region, but this momentum would stall when the Teutons believing they had won commited several atrosicities against Burgundians, and this caused the Burgundians to begin to turn against the Teutons. With the Teutons and the Burgundians now fighting amongst themselves the Frankish were able to regroup and organize, which led them to over the course of a generation to push the Burgundians and Teutons completely out of Lorraine. The Burgundians would continue to move west and dominate the regions of France, and Alcase, while the Teutons would simply migrate into the regions of the growing Germany.

With the Burgundians forced to leave Lorraine, and much of Weerhousen they came to inhabit the lands of Alcase. Finding already a large population of Burgundians in the area they were quick to expand themselves, and became invested in attempting to form their own kingdom in the region. As the goverment was formed though they were attacked and annexxed by the the kingdom called the Allemeni of whom saw them as a threat and also the king at the time was a great man who wanted to unite the two tribes under the same banner. Under this arrangement power was meant to be shared between the Burgundians of Alcase and the Franks of Lorraine but instead as time went by the Franks took more and more control leading to a near slave like opinion of the Burgundians by the rulers of Allemeni. Eventually the domination shown by the Frankish of Lorraine begin to enrage the Burgundians of Alcase, and the two sides became bitter towards eachother. As the two halves of the kingdom became farther and farther apart all it took was a single action to lead the kingdom to war.

As the goverment of the Kingdom of Alcase was formed though they were attacked and annexed by the the empire called the Allemeni Empire of whom saw them as a threat and also the emperor at the time in the form of [[Charles Allingion]] of whom was a great man who wanted to unite the Franks under the same banner. Under this arrangement power was meant to be shared between the Burgundians of western Allemeni and the Franks of Lorraine and in order to do this they would form the Senate of Allemeni where in all the Kings of the Empire of Allemeni would maintain a vote in important matters.
====Assasination of King Englend====

====Rising Trouble====

This peaceful co-existence would begin to fade as time went by and the Franks took more and more control leading to a near slave like opinion of the Burgundians by the rulers of Allemeni. Eventually the domination shown by the Frankish of Lorraine begin to enrage the Burgundians of Alcase, and the two sides became bitter towards each other. As the two halves of the kingdom became farther and farther apart all it took was a single action to lead the kingdom to war.
The act that led to war would be the murder of King England who was a Frankish king that was heading to Alcase in order to attempt to sign pacts that would lead the two groups closer together. With his murder the Frankish were up in arms about the murderous behavior of the Burgundians, and when Englend II. came to power he attempted to subvert the rebellious movements amongst the Burgundians by massacring large numbers of them in reprisals. This had the effect of furthering the rebellions in the region, and as the brush war continued the Frankish found they couldn't even enter Alcase without nearly a full army, and thus begin the movement to the full civil war. Towards the end of the reign of Englend II's reign he grew close to the Emperor of The Empire at the time and thus the alliance between the two started to form.

Eventually the civil war ended with both sides extremely bloody, and now independant Kingdoms. The Kingdom of Alcase was very happy with this as they were now able to more frequently trade with their western neigbors the Bretonians. While for Lorraine this end meant they continued their closeness with The Empire, and the Empire's allies.

It wasn't the lack of human companionship it was the fact that I couldn't reach out and touch Harry if I wanted to.

: -Hermione Granger
 
 
Hermione would enter Alcase as the forces of the Kingdom of Alcase were battling internal chaos forces led by one of the ruling house, but for her she didn't see how truly dangerous the land was all she saw was the fact that she was seperated from everything that she loved including Harry most of all. She had teleported herself into the capital of Strasburg where she was hoping to find Leliana Orsinio of whom she had gathered had the ring because it was meant to be passed down to every female member of House Orsinio. As she searched the town she discovered that the royal family and most of the military of Alcase was in the west where they had gone to battle the forces of John Orsinio. Realizing she had to act quickly before Leliana Orsinio possibly was killed and lost the ring to the forces of evil that she might not be able to get the ring back from. Hermione would travel by horse for days, running her horse ragged until she discovered the battlefield, and the camped army of Alcase. When she waded through the thousands of bodies she wondered sadly whether she was too late, but when she was taken in by several Alcase gaurds her hope rose.
 
====Finding the Ring====
 
: ''[[File:Leliana1.png|thumb|400px]]"Seeing her alive told me for the first time that I might actually be able to do this without Harry having to die. If I could just find all the dead grails I could save him. If only..."''
 
 
: -Hermione Granger
 
 
She was immediatly taken to a low level commander, and when she was cleared that she wasn't a member of the defeated forces of John Orsinio she asked to be taken to Leliana Orsinio, and the gaurds told her where she was, and she bolted towards the area. Finding her tent she barged in without any sort of notice, and the gaurds posted at the tent didn't react quick enough and she was inside the tent with Lelliana. Once inside the tent she used Magi to close to entrances, and block herself in with Leliana. Leliana immediatly went for her sword, and as she grabbed for it Hermione saw the ring on her finger, and dropped to her knees in happiness. Leliana at this point was beyond confused but she called out for aid, and she could hear the sounds of swords hitting against the tent but as soon as they hit the cloth the sword was pushed away, and no damage was caused. As the commotion outside got more out of hand and more and more gaurds tried to get in Johanas reached the area after hearing the alert, and attempted to charge his way through the tent to no avail.
 
 
[[File:Evil_Clouds.jpg|thumb|left|400px]]Leliana Orsinio : ''What sort of Magi is this?...Do you not speak women?''
 
 
Hermione Granger :'' I speak...its just I never thought I'd actually find one of them. I just assumed he would have been two steps ahead of me...but you...your proof that I can save him.''
 
 
Leliana Orsinio : ''Save who?''
 
 
"Hermione Granger : ''Harry.''
 
 
The two would proceede to talk and Hermione showed her the book profising the danger of the ring in her company, and after realizing that Hermione meant her no harm she lowered her sword and Hermione released the spell blocking the tent. As the spell went down Johanson barged through the cloth and crashed into the tent before getting up and picking Hermione up by the neck and nearly killing her before Leliana was able to get him to release her. The three would talk, and eventually Hermione would eventually get the ring, and told them thank you for their help, and she was sorry for everything that she had caused to them. As she got on her horse to leave and everyone said goodbye the sound of trumpets went off, and as she peered towards the sound she saw a massive dark cloud on the horizon.
 
 
===Second Battle of Avricourt===

[[File:Leliana_Orsinio_Large.jpg|thumb|400px]]{{Quote(1)|I looked at the cloud and tried to feel for some kind of Magi in the area, and what I felt was horrifying. Like a void had appeared in the world the chaos worshippers were a presence in the Fade that I hope I never feel again.|Hermione Granger}}
 
 
Following the destruction of the army of Chaos in the first battle of Avricourt the forces of [[John Orsinio]] had retreated, and everyone believed they would flee completely out of Alcase, but instead he regrouped the remaining chaos forces west of Avricourt. The army of Alcase was going to chase them down, but the distraction of Hermione Granger, and the fact that a larger force being led by the King in [[Fabin Von Orsinio]] meant that the Alcase forces were in the same position camped. John Orsinio had managed to gather a larger force then in the first battle, but did it at the cost of completely surrendering his original plan of long term raiding, and occupation of the lands of Alcase as he had brought every single soldier he had available to the battle. As Fabin Orsinio reached the area John Orsinio launched his assault on the camp of Leliana, and Johanson hoping to defeat that camped army before turning against the remaining force in Fabin's army. The force of John Orsinio would bring thousands of demons along with it further augmenting its numbers, and as it appeared over the hills near Avricourt the army of Johanas, and Leliana would marshal themselves to fight against the army of [[Chaos]]. Hermione seeing a chance to flee eastward would be given the blessing of Leliana to leave them and do what she had to do, and she was nearly going to leave before she realized Harry would not have wanted her to do that, and she turned around and followed Leliana into the right flank.
 
 
{{Quote(1)|Chaos has come to our doorsteps men. It is time we showed traitors what happens when they take the easy path. Anyone can choose to betray everything they stand for, and gain some marginal reward, and remember my friends that is the easy way. The hard way is the path we all have chosen. The hard way is standing beside your brothers and sisters and defending the land you grew up. Defending all the values that make our existence worth fighting for.|Johanson Hawkes}}
 
 
Remaining at the camp the camped army would prepare themselves for the charge, and Johanas would command the center of the force, while the left flank was commanded by Isabelle Hurnia, while the right flank was commanded by Leliana and she was joined there by Hermione. Seeing this from their vantage point the royal army of Fabin would make their way towards the valley beneath them but were several hours away, and thus wouldn't be able to affect the initial assault. As the Chaos forces smashed into the army the intial charge broke pieces of the army as the demons horrified them, and the mass charge nearly caused a retreat of the army. As the army wavered Hermione would summon a gigantic yellow bird that flew over the ranks of the army and gave them heart, and this somewhat steadied them.
 
 
[[File:Hawkes1.jpg|thumb|left|400px]]{{Quote(1)|Demons three times the size of a man. Humans with three arms. This was what chaos gave you. |Johanas Hawkes}}
 
 
As the fighting intensified John Orisinio watched from the ranks as Johanas Hawkes wiped his way through the ranks of the chaos center forces, and then watched the Alcase forces celebrate as Johanas killed a greater demon of Slanaash. Seeing momentum change against him despite his larger force John Orsinio would charge into the left flank where Isabelle Hurnia was fighting a losing fight against a large force, and he would engage her in a duel. Granted gifts by Slanaash John was beyond the fighting ability of Isabelle and he sliced her nearly in half before tossing her head into the Alcase ranks, and causing a near rout of the left flank. As the left flank collapsed John turned his forces from attacking the left flank to moving against the center and Johanas. On the right flank Hermione and Leliana killed their enemy one after another but there was always another, and so Hermione watched as Leliana broke from the front line and cut her way through the chaos ranks making her way towards a Chaos Magi. Fighting the Chaos Magi Hermione led a charge as well breaking the chaos forces attempting to surround Leliana and her force that had broke through, and the right flank begin to be pushed back towards the dueling Leliana and Magi. The Magi and Leliana would duel for many minutes, but the [[Magi]] found his spells constantly blocked by Hermione, and as it continued Leliana finally killed the Magi and broke the right flank of Chaos. With the death of the Magi the demons begin to lose form, and after a few minutes the demons of the Chaos Army had shifted out of the real world and back into the fade where they had been summoned from.
 
 
{{Quote(1)|Our left flank had broken, while their left flank had done the same. As Lelian pushed to the center and John did the same the final battle would be found in the center.|Hermione Granger}}
 
 
With both left flanks of the two armies being overwhelmed the two victorous flanks moved to the center and engaged the already desperate fighting in the center. John Orsinio seeing Johanas kill one of his few remaining friends, and perhaps the sole remaining person he trusted would charge at Johanas, and as he was overcome by anger and rage his god himself in [[Slanaash]] would change him from his human form into a Greater Demon of Slanaash and it was in this form that John Orsinio and Johanas Hawkes would battle. An extremely formidable fighter John was only able to hold off the charge of the now demonic John Orsinio and felt himself pushed back inch by inch. As he was knocked to the ground John would be smashed back from a bolt by Hermione Granger, and Bethany Hawkes of whom were able to keep John down while Johanas, and [[Leliana Orsinio|Leliana]] charged at him and struck him many times killing the demon and releasing John Orsinio. With John Orsinio dead, and the demons deforming the chaos forces were broken, and despite attempts by the other commanders of the army to hold them they would retreat away from the slaughter that was now ensueing on the chaos forces. By this point the cavalry of Fabin including the king himself had arrived and would charge into the retreating chaos forces wiping out the remaining parts of the army.

'''[[File:Fabin_Orsinio.png|thumb|400px]]Fabin Von Orsinio''' is a Burgundian who is the King of the[[Kingdom Of Alcase| Kingdom of Alcase]], and as such the patriach of [[House Orsinio]] which is royalty in Alcase. Fabin has two siblings in the form of John, and Lisa Orsinio of which his sister Lisa was married to a Bretonian Noble and survives their with her children, and his brother John is a dark man that has betrayed the Kingdom and is now a direhard Chaos loyalist.

! scope="col"|Death

|-
He is the son of the former king of Alcase in Marjin Von Orsinio, and spent his life as the heir to the throne. Following his coronation his brother would become an increasingly dangerous threat of whom he didn't want to have to deal with, but over the years he became worried about what his brother might be possible of. He would gain a tight relationship with the Bretonian Nobles and this was shattered for him when nearly all of them died during the Fall of France. He would lead the forces of Alcase into France and watched as nearly his entire force was wiped out during the fighting at the Battle of Lyons. A man in his late 30's he is well known for his hatred of the Orcs, and his close relationship with the [[Kingdom Of Bretonia|Bretonians]] meant that he was directly effected by the destruction of the Bretonian nobility. He would spend the next many years on the western border alongside his brother John and his commanders as they attempted to heavily fortify the western border, and also make homes for the incoming waves of Bretonians. While this was happening he was forced to deal with the deaths of his brother's wife and son and at the same time his own son during an ambush. He would become too involved in the protection of the Kingdom of Alcase that he didn't notice as his brother lost his way following their death, and it wasn't until he returned to Strasburg to manage the growing conflict with the Empire that he once again saw his brother and realized how far he had fallen.

The Heir to the throne for Alcase is known as the Crown Prince or Princess of Alcase and is unique in that it can be either a girl, or a boy and for this reason we have seen over the cours of their history three women leading the Kingdom. The actual succession laws of the Kingdom of Alcase are Absolute Cognatic thus the direction of the above level of female governance over the history of Alcase, and before the fall of Allemeni.

'''[[File:House_Orsinio.jpg|thumb|400px]]Talbot Von Orsinio''' is the middle child of Fabin, and Maria Orsinio and with the death of his younger brother is the lone male heir to the throne of the [[Kingdom Of Alcase|Kingdom of Alcase]], and [[House Orsinio]]. Talbot Von Orsinio has one sibling in the form of Leliana Orsinio of whom has become a significant member of the military of both House Orsinio and the Kingdom of Alcase.
 
 
Born into the position of being the heir of House Orsinio and thus the Kingdom of Alcase he was in a very close situation to what his father found himself in, and this created a common bond between the two that only got stronger through the years. Talbot Von Orsinio has handled the position as heir very well and in his short time he has gained much noteriety for his positive role in the Kingdom, and his upstanding moral values. He has gone into the military of Alcase, just like his sister did, and he serves in the army of his sister's lover Johanson Hawkes, who is a man who he has grown to look up to like an older brother. In this way he trains himself for the day he knows will eventually come when his father is felled in battle, or dies of some other reason and he is forced to become the new King of Alcase. Talbot Von Orsinio would join with his sister following the arrival of Hermione Granger, and he would take part in the massive final battle of the Second Alcase Civil War, and during this battle he would be struck down by his uncle John Orsinio leading to his near death. Lying mortally wounded on  the battlefield he would be saved by the intervention of Hermione Granger of whom would heal him, and then at full strength again he renegaged his uncle who was killing his way through the center of the Alsatians lines, and would kill him after a immense duel. His uncle's death would send the chaos rebels to flight where they would be mainly annihilated on the banks of the nearbye river as they tried to swim across to safety.

==Points of Interest==
 
 
The Kingdom of Alcase is very tall in length of the kingdom, but it lost a lot of it's western lands during the Fall of France. The population centers though were relatively unhit by the damages of the Fall of France and this led to the population of Alcase to not be devestated in the same manner as they might be believed to have been.

[[File:Strasburg.jpg|thumb|400px]]
 
'''Strasburg''' is the capital city of the [[Kingdom Of Alcase|Alcase Kingdom]], and sits along the Bhrine river, which is a tributary river to the Rhine. Once a secondary city in Alcase to the power of [[Obernie]] the city in the past two hundred years has risen to be the most powerful city in the Kingdom. This power growth at the expense of Obernie has led the leadership of that city and the populations of both to have a heavy amount of rivalry between themselves.
 
 
With a population approaching 100,000 it is a truly massive city, but it is also the site of the court of Alcase and the sitting place of King [[Fabin Von Orsinio]] making it a city with a vast number of aristocrats and nobles all vying for the attention of the King of Alcase. The population themselves are nearly completely Burgundian making it by far the largest Burgundian city in the world in terms of total population, and only is approached by Obernie in terms of actual cultural center of the Burgundian people.
 
 
''Strasburg'' was the center of the trade network of the [[Empire of Numeron|Numenor Empire]] in the Alcase region. Despite its obvious wealth and importance the city never grew to be of any noticeable size due to a series of ineffective leaders, and the migration of most''' Franks''' to[[ France]]. This would change with the coming of the Burgundians in heavy numbers to the region following the collapse of the Empire of Numeron. Over the years the growth of House Orsinio would lead to Strasburg growing quicker and quicker until it became the capital of the Kingdom of Alcase. As the capital of the KIngdom of Alcase it is the site of massive palaces, and the largest defence force within the northern area of the KIngdom of Alcase.
 
 
====Saverne====
 
 
See Also : [[Saverne]]
 
 
[[File:Chateau_Rohan_Saverne_01.jpg|thumb|396px|Military Academy of Alcase]]
 
'''Saverne''' is a very large city in [[Kingdom Of Alcase|Alcase Kingdom]]. It is most noteable for being the home of the Alcase Military Academy. Located in the deep south of the Kingdom of Alcase the city has become a center for the military of Alcase due to its constant raids, and attacks by the forces of [[Weerhousen]], and now the [[Orcs]] of France.
 
 
Like most of the cities of Alcase Saverne was founded by the [[Empire of Numeron|Numerons]] early on in their expansion and holding of this area. Saverne specifically was meant as a communcations city between their growing cities in[[ France ]] and their main holdings in [[Arnor]] and Germania. The Kingdom of Alcase, and Weerhousen had always had a spotted history, with nearly constant series of border skirmishes between the two but it was only following the Fall of France that the forces of Weerhousen begin assaulting the south of Alcase in large numbers. While for most of its history people had discussed that Weerhousen was an evil Kingdom ruled by monsters with its soilders made up of the same kind of monsters it was only in this conflict that the skeletal, vampire armies of Weerhousen were truly discovered.
 
 
====Guebwiller====
 
 
See Also : [[Guebwiller]]
 
 
[[File:800px-Absolute_ponts_couverts_02.jpg|thumb|400px]]
 
'''Guebwiller''' is a major river port of [[Kingdom Of Alcase|Alcase]], and sits along the Bhrine River. Guebwiller is located just south of [[Strasburg |Strasburg&nbsp;and]] the cities are known as twins, and in a lot of ways they form one big city seperated by nothing more then a 30 minute walk. For instance from the northern walls of ''Guebwiller ''you can see the town of Strasburg. This means that as the city of Strasburg has grown stonger and stronger the desire for a simple annexation of Guebwiller has become a serious conversation piece that is only held up by the busy time of the King of Alcase.
 
 
The history of Guebwiller did not began as many European cities did with its construction by the [[Empire of Numeron|Numerons]] . In fact the area south of Strasburg was never properly settled by the Numerons and it wasn't until their destruction that the first people from Strasburg and other places began settling in the port. It grew alongside [[Strasburg]] as ''Guebwiller'' became the site for the fishing, and trasnporting of most of the goods required by Strasburg.
 
 
====Obernie====
 
 
See Also : [[Obernie]]
 
 
[[File:800px-Obernai_place_marche.jpg|thumb|400px]]
 
'''Obernie''' is a large city in the [[Kingdom Of Alcase|Kingdom of Alcase]], located in the far south west of the Kingdom of Alcase. Obernie was founded during the rise of the KIngdom of Alcase-Lorraine and because of this it was an important segment of the Kingdom that stayed out of much of the fighting that plagued the other regions of the Kingdom. Obernie is the personal haven of [[House Errol]], and it is House Errol that controls the ultimate fate of Obernie.
 
 
Once the center of Alcase's cultural base the civil war between Alcase and Lorraine caused the city to lose influence to the western section centered around[[ Strasburg]]. Obernie was attacked during the Fall of France, and only the timely intervention of massive forces of the KIngdom of Alcase would push back the rampaging forces of the Orcs. More recently the city was ravaged by a large army of Orcs that attacked it in the Battle of Iron Peaks. This has caused a serious loss in population due to emmigration from the city as well as the loss of several villages west of the city.
 
 
====Molsheim====
 
 
See Also : [[Molsheim]]
 
 
[[File:Metzig_Molsheim.jpg|thumb|396px|Town Hall of Molsheim]]
 
'''Molsheim''' was once the largest city in[[Kingdom Of Alcase| Alcase]], but has taken a heavy toll over the years due to its location on the border with [[Weerhousen]]. Located in the deep south of the Kingdom of Alcase they sit near the border of Weerhousen and because of this the leadership of the city is one of the most vocal opponents of Weerhousen, and understands first hand that they are not truly human.
 
 
It is home to the private estate of [[House Marlow]], and thus the headquarters of House Marlow who is the second most powerful house in the Kingdom of Alcase.
 
 
Molsheim was originally founded by the Numenors during their growth in this area of Europe. They used this as an actual city which is quite rare for Alcase as most of the region were castles, or trading posts. Because of this early start it grew to be very large under their rule, but also had a larger amount of Numenorian influence and Atlantians living in the city then most other Alcase cities. The city of Molsheim handled the downfall very well, and continued to grow as time went on. The city reached levels that made it the envy of surrounding regions, and unfortunatly one of these eyes was the evil dukes of Weerhousen.

[[File:800px-EU-FR-AL-67-Sélestat_Église_Saint-Georges_01.jpg|thumb|400px|The Church of Bretonia]]
 
'''New Paris''' is a very large city that only came into excistence following the [[War in France|Fall of France]]. Although it is part of [[Kingdom Of Alcase|Alcase]], it still says prayers for the[[Jesse Eisenburg| King of Bretonia]]. It is only its massive population, and location along a major attack route for Orcs, that forces Alcase to allow their behavior to continue.
 
 
New Paris is led by the Frankish [[House Pontie]] of whom only entered the Kingdom of Alcase with the founding of New Paris, and is somewhat of an outsider because they are not Burgundian as most other houses are.
 
 
New Paris is located between two mountain ranges, and for this reason its climate is much cooler then most of the region around it. This mountain range also means that there are two very gloomy tall lengthed forests that growth north and south of the city, and provide a lot of lumber to the city. The main source of water is Lake Biel which is located east of the city, and from this lake they also get a large amount of food from the large amount of fish the lake has.
 
 
The area where new Paris stands was for the majority of its history tribal land. During this time the land switched control from Trolloc, to humans and back and forth. This changed with the coming of the Bretonians, and they laid permenant claim to this area, and they established this most eastern land as agricultural land for the KIngdom. Since it lay on the extreme eastern border of Bretonian it was a place of much trade between Bretonian and Alcase. When the Battle of Lyons was lost to the humans, the civilians of France were basically told to flee with whatever they could, and save themselves as France was gone. While most of the convoys fled northwest to Matron, or North to England or northeast to The Empire. There were many that went east to the Kingdom of Alcase. Once in Alcase the Franks begin grouping together in the area and begin calling their new town New Paris after the fallen city of Bretonia. During these times this area was annexed into Alcase, as they wanted a more defendable position and the mountains of the region made it more of a boddleneck against the Orcs.

The Kingdom Of Alcase is a major Frankish Human Kingdom that sits on the Eastern border of what was once the Kingdom of Bretonia, and is now Orc held France. The Kingdom of Alcase is the kingdom with the largest proportion of Burgundians thus making it their capital both physically and culturally with the main Burgundian town of Strasburg located in the Kingdom of Alcase.

The Geographical region its present in is Alcase-Lorraine, in which was once a single Kingdom, but the two have split apart into two seperate kingdoms. This followed generations of conflict while the entire region was a part of the Allemeni Empire. The Allemeni ended when the Kingdom of Alcase won the civil war and became independant. Following this they moved closer to the Kingdom of Bretonia, and during the growth of Bretonia they became extremely wealthy. WIth the fall of Bretonia the Kingdom of Alcase is besieged from all sides by its enemies, and their appears little positive for this once extremely proud Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Alcase is dominated religiously by the Grand Temple of Alcase which leads the Dragonoph religion in the Kingdom of Alcase and the Dragonoph has a stranglehold over the Kingdom of Alcase. Standing beneath the Dragonoph worshipers stands the Francelli Church of Alcase which is a christian denomination ruling over western Alcase where it holds majorities in several counties and two dutchies marking it as an influential mover in the Kingdom of Alcase but far beneath the Dragonoph Temple. The final element of the religious picture in the kingdom of Alcase stands the High Temple of the True Lords of Allemeni which is a temple that venerates the worship of the Frankish Pantheon and they have followers all across the Kingdom of Alcase but are only truly numerous in the dutchy of Lower Alcase where they are the sole religion in that dutchy.

The current King is Fabin Von Orsinio a man that is universally loved in Alcase as a great king with nothing but the greatness of Alcase on his mind. Under the rule of the King of Alcase their is a monarchy filled feudilism at play and he is all powerful controlling all decisions outside the internal decisions of his lords. The Lords inherit their positions from birth in much the same way as the Kingdom of Lucerne, and the king of Alcase is the only man who can take away the control of a Lord.

The Kingdom of Alcase maitains a military based on normal feudal vassalage system but alongside this there are two standing armies maintained by the kingdom itself in the form of the First Strasburg Army, and the Second Strasburg army and these two forces are regulated at five thousand strong and maintain absolute loyalty to the state.

In prehistoric times, Alsace was inhabited by nomadic hunters, but by (Find Date), Burgundians, and Anglos began to settle in Alcase, clearing and cultivating the land. By (Find Date), the Numenor's had invaded and established Alcase as a center of viticulture. To protect this highly valued industry, the Numenor Empire built fortifications and military camps that evolved into various communities which have been inhabited continuously to the present day. While part of the Numenor Empire, Alsace was part of Germania Superior. During this time the entire region was dominated by the Teutons despite the fact that they were dramatically outnumbered by the Burgundians, and the Frankish. With the fall of the Empire of Numeron the regions Teutons found that there mastery of the region was about to be questioned. During the time of the Numenorians they were able to ofset the huge population differences by the excistence of the massive armies of the Numenorians but as the armies left so to did their wild card. The Burgundians of Alcase would form alongside the region of Lorraine the large Allemeni Empire of which would be capable due to its massive size and population to resist the growing Teutonic threat to their north.

History

Early History

Allemeni

The Allemeni Empire

"Before the Numenorians we were a peaceful hunter gathering tribe that was constantly afraid of death by the hands of Trollocs. After they took control we were a peaceful crop growing tribe that was constantly afraid of death by the hands of the Numenorians."
-Unknown Burgundian Scribe

In prehistoric times, Alsace was inhabited by nomadic hunters, but by (Find Date), Burgundians, and Anglos began to settle in Alcase, clearing and cultivating the land. By (Find Date), the Numenor's had invaded and established Alcase as a center of viticulture. To protect this highly valued industry, the Numenor Empire built fortifications and military camps that evolved into various communities which have been inhabited continuously to the present day. While part of the Numenor Empire, Alsace was part of Germania Superior. During this time the entire region was dominated by the Teutons despite the fact that they were dramatically outnumbered by the Burgundians, and the Frankish. This control was held by the fact that the Numenorians required the loyalty of the Teutons so they had placed them in a number of high ranking positions and this region was once such place. During this time though despite the cold rule of many of the Numenorian Empires it would be under their rule that a massive expansion of Alcase was underway as the Numenorians took advantage of the growing population to make Alcase into a large food breadbasket. Their position of strength and envy only increased when a large amount of minerals were discovered in the central mountains of Alcase.

Downfall of Numeron

Main Article : The Downfall of the Numenor Empire

Allemeni3

With the fall of the Empire of Numeron the regions Teutons found that there mastery of the region was about to be questioned. During the time of the Numenorians they were able to ofset the huge population differences by the excistence of the massive armies of the Numenorians but as the armies left so to did their wild card. The Teutons were not oblivious to this though, and they found support financially from their cousins in the growing regions of Germany, who were even more imperialistic back then if that seems possible. With this financial backing the Teutons of the region attempted to heavily finance a fight between the two largest groups of the region in the Frankish, and the Burgundians. The Teutons once again attempted to side with the smaller of the two in the Burgundians, and this led to the extreme fighting between the two forces. The Burgundians even though they were smaller were able to use their financial and physical support from the Teutons to slowly push the Frankish westward out of the region, but this momentum would stall when the Teutons believing they had won commited several atrosicities against Burgundians, and this caused the Burgundians to begin to turn against the Teutons. With the Teutons and the Burgundians now fighting amongst themselves the Frankish were able to regroup and organize, which led them to over the course of a generation to push the Burgundians and Teutons completely out of Lorraine. The Burgundians would continue to move west and dominate the regions of France, and Alcase, while the Teutons would simply migrate into the regions of the growing Germany.

Alcase-Lorraine

The Kingdom of Alcase-Lorraine

"Allemeni should be the kingdom of the day. We should be united on the peninsula but instead the foolish greedy Franks of Lorraine wanted more. Their constant desire for more has ruined the entire penisula."
-Unknown Burgundian Scribe

With the Burgundians forced to leave Lorraine, and much of Weerhousen they came to inhabit the lands of Alcase. Finding already a large population of Burgundians in the area they were quick to expand themselves, and became invested in attempting to form their own kingdom in the region.

Allemeni Empire

Main Article : Allemeni Empire

As the goverment of the Kingdom of Alcase was formed though they were attacked and annexed by the the empire called the Allemeni Empire of whom saw them as a threat and also the emperor at the time in the form of Charles Allingion of whom was a great man who wanted to unite the Franks under the same banner. Under this arrangement power was meant to be shared between the Burgundians of western Allemeni and the Franks of Lorraine and in order to do this they would form the Senate of Allemeni where in all the Kings of the Empire of Allemeni would maintain a vote in important matters.

Rising Trouble

This peaceful co-existence would begin to fade as time went by and the Franks took more and more control leading to a near slave like opinion of the Burgundians by the rulers of Allemeni. Eventually the domination shown by the Frankish of Lorraine begin to enrage the Burgundians of Alcase, and the two sides became bitter towards each other. As the two halves of the kingdom became farther and farther apart all it took was a single action to lead the kingdom to war.

Assassination of Carloman Capet III.

The act that led to war would be the murder of King Carloman Capet III. of whom was a Frankish king of the Kingdom of Lorraine that was heading to Alcase in order to attempt to sign pacts that would lead the two groups closer together. With his murder the Frankish were up in arms about the murderous behavior of the Burgundians, and when Carloman Capet IV. came to power he attempted to subvert the rebellious movements among the Burgundians by massacring large numbers of them in reprisals. This had the effect of furthering the rebellions in the region, and as the brush war continued the Frankish found they couldn't even enter Alcase without nearly a full army, and thus begin the movement to the full civil war. Towards the end of Carloman Capet III's reign he grew close to the Emperor of Imperial Empire of Germania at the time and thus the alliance between the two started to form.

Independance

Eventually the civil war ended with both sides extremely bloody, and now independant Kingdoms. The Kingdom of Alcase was very happy with this as they were now able to more frequently trade with their western neigbors the Bretonians. While for Lorraine this end meant they continued their closeness with The Empire, and the Empire's allies.

The Empire

Main Article : The Empire

Following the Empire's loss in Hogwarts and the more resent advances of Lucerne, the Empire began ratcheting up its reteroic towards Alcase. In this regard they begin marshalling the forces of Lorraine and the Lowlands and placed them along the borders of Alcase. In this way they are threatening Alcase with destruction in the case they do now join with them. This ratcheting up of the reteric only got worse when the Alcase ally in the Kingdom of Lucerne sacked and took control of the very important city of Westbridge.

The Battle of Iron Peaks

Main Article : Battle of Iron Peaks

The Battle of Iron Peak was a battle fought between a rampaging Orc army and the city of Obernie. The Orcs had already destoryed two towns west of Obernie, and three armies of Alcase were heading towards Obernie to reinforce the city, but before they could arrive the Orcs attacked the city in full force.

The defenders of the city held strong and managed to hold off the orcs for three days, and on the fourth day the first army arrived commanded by the Ranger Leliana Orsinio. Leliana had the smallest of the three armies, and because of this she was forced to use delaying tactics against the Orcs in order to buy more time. A combination of valiant defence of the city, and effective hit and run attacks by Lelian's rangers managed to delay the Orcs for another two days, and on the seventh day the army of Johanson Hawkes arrived.

Angelo Ambronogi

John Orsinio

As the armies of Alcase were fighting off the Orcs another problem quickly made itself known. John Orsinio had never forgiven his brother for the death of his family and in blind hate he now believed he was the one right for King of Alcase. In his desire for this position he became utterly fixated on growth. He first went to The Empire who begin providing him with funds, and mercenary troops with which to bolster his froces, but it was a metting with a man named Angelo Ambronogi that changed everything for him. When John met Angelo, he found someone that finally understood how brilliant he was, atleast who made him think this. In truth Angelo spent nearly a year in John's entourage and during this time was able to turn John towards the worship of Chaos.

There are three main forces in Alcase. The first is controlled by the King of Alcase and usually remains in Saverne for its time in order to keep the capital safe. The second army is the second largest and it is usually controlled by the most effective commander in the Kingdom, but in today's era it is controlled by John Orsinio who while an effective commander has spent nearly a decade taking little part in the conflicts and leaving it all to the third and smallest army. The third and smallest army is controlled like a patrol army, in that it is very cavalry driven, and relies on speed, and skill in order to make up for their lack of numbers in comparison to the Second Army. Because of this setup the Kingdom of Alcase now silently had lost its largest army in the Second army without fighting a battle.

Crisis

Following the Battle of Iron Peaks the leadership of Alcase could no longer overlook the lack of involvement of the Second Army and in order to deal with this John Orsiino was ordered to meet the King at the capital of Saverne. When weeks passed and no army came the leadership sent scouts to see what was happening and they discovered that the Second army was no longer camped at their usual base west of Obernie. With the leadership now in complete panic a single knight would change the destiny of Alcase, and also bring the worst news imagineable.

As King Orsinio was planning how they would find what happened to the Second Army a gaurd approached and told the assembled noblemen and commanders that a single knight had arrived at the gate and said he was part of the Second Army.

Hermione Arrives in Alcase

Hermione Granger Other Large1
I was alone for the first time in my life, and the loneliness was a pain worse then anything I'd felt since the death of my parents. It wasn't the lack of human companionship it was the fact that I couldn't reach out and touch Harry if I wanted to. Everything that was good was just so far away, and it seemed clear to me as I searched the ruins that nothing was going to be easy on this path.
Hermione Granger

Hermione would enter Alcase as the forces of the Kingdom Of Alcase were battling internal chaos forces led by one of the ruling house, but for her part she didn't see how truly dangerous the land was all she saw was the fact that she was separated from everything that she loved including Harry most of all. Upon their arrival at Strasburg they meet with Fleur Delacour of whom takes them to the Academy where they meet with the leadership of the Children of Harnene of whom Hermione tells them what she is after, and they initially state that they don`t know where the item she is looking for is, but she sees that Olympe Maxime is lying and begins getting upset which almost starts a fight but is stopped when the Children Council leaves the room to discuss. Returning from their discussion they reveal to Hermione that they will help her find the necklace if she allows two of their number to go with her in order to make sure that nothing hostile happens to the one who has the necklace, and she agrees despite not wanting so many people with her. Departing Strasburg with Fleur Delacour, and Josette Didier now five strong they head westward where she is still not told who has the necklace but is told that she will be introduced to the one who does and that person will decide whether or not Hermione can have the ring. While on the road they begin to come across bodies and the signs of battle and at this Fleur Delacour reveals that the holder of the necklace was Leliana Thoe Orsinio of whom had left for the west with most of the Strasburg army in order to battle John Orsinio. Realizing she had to act quickly before Leliana Orsinio possibly was killed and lost the ring to the forces of evil that she might not be able to get the ring back from. Hermione, and the group would travel by horse for days, running their horses ragged until they discovered a large battlefield, and the camped army of Alcase. As the group waded through the thousands of bodies she wondered sadly whether she was too late, but when the group was taken in by several Alcase guards her hope rose.

Finding the Ring
Leliana1
Seeing her alive told me for the first time that I might actually be able to do this without Harry having to die. If I could just find all the dead grails I could save him. If only...
Hermione Granger

She was immediately taken to a low level commander, and when she was cleared that she wasn't a member of the defeated forces of John Orsinio she asked to be taken to Leliana Orsinio, and the guards told her where she was, and she bolted towards the area leaving behind the yelling members of her group who could not keep up with her. Finding Leliana's tent she barged in without any sort of notice, and the guards posted at the tent didn't react quick enough and she was inside the tent with Lelliana. Once inside the tent she used Magi to close to entrances, and block herself in with Leliana. Leliana immediately went for her sword, and as she grabbed for it Hermione saw the ring on her finger, and dropped to her knees in happiness. Leliana at this point was beyond confused but she called out for aid, and she could hear the sounds of swords hitting against the tent but as soon as they hit the cloth the sword was pushed away, and no damage was caused. As the commotion outside got more out of hand and more and more guards tried to get in Johanas reached the area after hearing the alert, and attempted to charge his way through the tent to no avail.

Evil Clouds
Leliana Orsinio : What sort of Magi is this?...Do you not speak women?

Hermione Granger : I speak...its just I never thought I'd actually find one of them. I just assumed he would have been two steps ahead of me...but you...your proof that I can save him.

Leliana Orsinio : Save who?

"Hermione Granger : Harry.

The two would proceed to talk and Hermione showed her the book prophesying the danger of the ring in her company of which Hermione told her was the Black Ring of Mael, and was a piece of the evil Dead Grails and as they talked and after realizing that Hermione meant her no harm she lowered her sword and Hermione released the spell blocking the tent. As the spell went down Johanson barged through the cloth and crashed into the tent before getting up and picking Hermione up by the neck and nearly killing her before Leliana was able to get him to release her. The three would talk, and eventually Hermione would eventually get the ring, and told them thank you for their help, and she was sorry for everything that she had caused to them. As she got on her horse to leave and everyone said goodbye the sound of trumpets went off, and as she peered towards the sound she saw a massive dark cloud on the horizon. As this was happening the Lothlorian Elf Zerevor Sunsorrow also arrived at the site but having seen that Hermione had reached the forces of the Kingdom of Alcase first he made the decision to lend assistance to John Orsinio in return for promises that he could have the ring once John had victory.

Second Battle of Avricourt
Demons three times the size of a man. Humans with three arms. This was what chaos gave you.

Second Battle of Avricourt

Main Article : Battle of Avricourt

Leliana Orsinio Large
I looked at the cloud and tried to feel for some kind of Magi in the area, and what I felt was horrifying. Like a void had appeared in the world the chaos worshippers were a presence in the Fade that I hope I never feel again.
Hermione Granger

Following the destruction of the army of Chaos in the first battle of Avricourt the forces of John Orsinio had retreated, and everyone believed they would flee completely out of Alcase, but instead he regrouped the remaining chaos forces west of Avricourt. The army of Alcase was going to chase them down, but the distraction of Hermione Granger, and the fact that a larger force being led by the King in Fabin Von Orsinio meant that the Alcase forces were in the same position camped. John Orsinio had managed to gather a larger force then in the first battle, but did it at the cost of completely surrendering his original plan of long term raiding, and occupation of the lands of Alcase as he had brought every single soldier he had available to the battle. As Fabin Orsinio reached the area John Orsinio launched his assault on the camp of Leliana, and Johanson hoping to defeat that camped army before turning against the remaining force in Fabin's army. The force of John Orsinio would bring thousands of demons along with it further augmenting its numbers, and as it appeared over the hills near Avricourt the army of Johanas, and Leliana would marshal themselves to fight against the army of Chaos. Hermione seeing a chance to flee eastward would be given the blessing of Leliana to leave them and do what she had to do, and she was nearly going to leave before she realized Harry would not have wanted her to do that, and even if he did she could not accept becoming the person who just left. Discussing it with the others in her group they all agreed that they had to stay with Fleur Delacour being especially strong towards staying and with that agreed on she turned around and followed Leliana into the right flank.

Chaos has come to our doorsteps men. It is time we showed traitors what happens when they take the easy path. Anyone can choose to betray everything they stand for, and gain some marginal reward, and remember my friends that is the easy way. The hard way is the path we all have chosen. The hard way is standing beside your brothers and sisters and defending the land you grew up. Defending all the values that make our existence worth fighting for.
Johanson Hawkes

Remaining at the camp the camped army would prepare themselves for the charge, and Johanas would command the center of the force, while the left flank was commanded by Isabelle Hurnia, while the right flank was commanded by Leliana and she was joined there by Hermione. Seeing this from their vantage point the royal army of Fabin would make their way towards the valley beneath them but were several hours away, and thus wouldn't be able to affect the initial assault. As the Chaos forces smashed into the army the intial charge broke pieces of the army as the demons horrified them, and the mass charge nearly caused a retreat of the army. As the army wavered Hermione would summon a gigantic yellow bird that flew over the ranks of the army and gave them heart, and this somewhat steadied them.

Hawkes1
Demons three times the size of a man. Humans with three arms. This was what chaos gave you.
Johanas Hawkes

As the fighting intensified John Orisinio watched from the ranks as Johanas Hawkes wiped his way through the ranks of the chaos center forces, and then watched the Alcase forces celebrate as Johanas killed a greater demon of Slanaash. Seeing momentum change against him despite his larger force John Orsinio would charge into the left flank where Isabelle Hurnia was fighting a losing fight against a large force, and he would engage her in a duel. Granted gifts by Slanaash John was beyond the fighting ability of Isabelle and he sliced her nearly in half before tossing her head into the Alcase ranks, and causing a near rout of the left flank. As the left flank collapsed John turned his forces from attacking the left flank to moving against the center and Johanas. On the right flank Hermione and Leliana killed their enemy one after another but there was always another, and so Hermione watched as Leliana broke from the front line and cut her way through the chaos ranks making her way towards a Chaos Magi. Fighting the Chaos Magi Hermione led a charge as well breaking the chaos forces attempting to surround Leliana and her force that had broke through, and the right flank begin to be pushed back towards the dueling Leliana and Magi. The Magi and Leliana would duel for many minutes, but the Magi found his spells constantly blocked by Hermione and her group, and as it continued Leliana finally killed the Magi and broke the right flank of Chaos. With the death of the Magi the demons begin to lose form, and after a few minutes the demons of the Chaos Army had shifted out of the real world and back into the fade where they had been summoned from.

Our left flank had broken, while their left flank had done the same. As Lelian pushed to the center and John did the same the final battle would be found in the center.
Hermione Granger

With both left flanks of the two armies being overwhelmed the two victorious flanks moved to the center and engaged the already desperate fighting in the center. As the Magi force of Hermione Granger moved to support Leliana it was Zerevor Sunsorrow who finally made his move engaging them in battle and attempting to kill Hermione for control of her ring. The group fought Zerevor but his power was incredible and centuries of life had left him with a control and knowledge base that was difficult for the six to defend against and with Zerevor overpowering them Hermione was able to defend herself but a deflected blasting shot struck Josette Didier killing her instantly and only narrowly missed Gilbert Genin who lost an arm and was horribly burned by the shot. Enraged at Gilbert being hit it was Alexandra Genin who lost herself to magi and attacked Zerevor with renewed effort and when everything she threw at him didn't work Zerevor was finally defeated when Alexandra charged at him physically knocking his staff out of his hand. As they tried to kill him a panicked Zerevor used non-verbal Magi to teleport from the field leaving behind his staff, but surviving the battle. With Zerevor gone the group left an emotionally destroyed Alexandra behind to care for her dying husband while they made their way to assist the center. John Orsinio seeing Johanas kill one of his few remaining friends, and perhaps the sole remaining person he trusted would charge at Johanas, and as he was overcome by anger and rage his god himself in Slanaash would change him from his human form into a Greater Demon of Slanaash and it was in this form that John Orsinio and Johanas Hawkes would battle. An extremely formidable fighter John was only able to hold off the charge of the now demonic John Orsinio and felt himself pushed back inch by inch. As he was knocked to the ground John would be smashed back from a bolt by Hermione Granger, and Bethany Hawkes of whom were able to keep John down while Johanas, and Leliana charged at him and struck him many times killing the demon and releasing John Orsinio. With John Orsinio dead, and the demons deforming the chaos forces were broken, and despite attempts by the other commanders of the army to hold them they would retreat away from the slaughter that was now ensueing on the chaos forces. By this point the cavalry of Fabin including the king himself had arrived and would charge into the retreating chaos forces wiping out the remaining parts of the army.

Geography

The Kingdom of Alcase is situated in north central Europe, and its location just north of Weerhousen, and south of The Empire, while being East of its old member in Lorraine.

The Kingdom in the north is quite warm, and maintains long warm summers, with only a marginely cold winter. While in the south sections, the climate is much less forgiving and the winters are quite cold and last for eight months, while the warm summers are only two months.

Climate

The Kingdom of Alcase has a semi-continental climate with cold and dry winters and hot summers. There is little precipitation because the Vosges protect it from the west. The city of Colmar has a sunny microclimate; it is the second driest city in France, with an annual precipitation of just 550 mm, making it ideal for vin d'Alsace (Alsatian wine).

Goverment

A hereditary Monarchy the Kingdom of Alcase is ruled by the Von Orsinio's, and has been since the events of the Civil War. This heridetary rulership of the Kingdom has lasted for their entire history, and usually the lordships and lands beneath the royal family are placed in the hands of those noble families that are both the wealthies, and also the most loyal to the crown. The Goverment of the Kingdom of Alcase thus contains at a level just beneath the royal family the Aristocrats or Dukes of whom rule over the provinces of the Kingdom and they hold sway over their individual provinces, but their  hold is only as strong as their ability to defend themselves against the King should they prove unloyal. The other major power besides the Royal Family, and the Dukes and other aristocrats are the members of the Dragonoph Temple of Alcase of whom hold a lot of power including their own military force independant of the Kingdom, and a large amount of wealth as they are not allowed to be taxed by the laws of the land.

Royal Family of Alcase

The Royal Family of Alcase is the supreme power of the Kingdom of Alcase and they are held by the people of the land, and Dragonoph Temple of Alcase the representitives of Glaurung in the land of Alcase. The King obviously stands at the top with the next rung down being the Queen, and then beneath them stands the Crown Princes, and Crown Princes of whom hold a lot of sway in their own right.

King of Alcase

The King hold all logitimate power in the Kingdom, and is capable of placing whoever he wants in whatever position he wants. The King can be a ceremonial position in the case that the throne was handed over to a female heir, and in this case the King would be a figurehead in much the way a normal queen is.

Queen of Alcase

The Queen can be the complete leader of the Kingdom of Alcase or in most cases be simply the wife of the King. Even in the latter case she still has many obligations and responsibilites but in most ways she is a figurehead if she's not given the throne.

Crown Prince of Alcase

The Heir to the throne for Alcase is known as the Crown Prince or Princess of Alcase and is unique in that it can be either a girl, or a boy and for this reason we have seen over the cours of their history three women leading the Kingdom. The actual succession laws of the Kingdom of Alcase are Absolute Cognatic thus the direction of the above level of female governance over the history of Alcase, and before the fall of Allemeni.

Demographics

Religion

The Kingdom of Alcase is dominated religiously by the Grand Temple of Alcase which leads the Dragonoph religion in the Kingdom of Alcase and the Dragonoph has a stranglehold over the Kingdom of Alcase. Standing beneath the Dragonoph worshipers stands the Francelli Church of Alcase which is a christian denomination ruling over western Alcase where it holds majorities in several counties and two dutchies marking it as an influential mover in the Kingdom of Alcase but far beneath the Dragonoph Temple. The final element of the religious picture in the kingdom of Alcase stands the High Temple of the True Lords of Allemeni which is a temple that venerates the worship of the Frankish Pantheon and they have followers all across the Kingdom of Alcase but are only truly numerous in the dutchy of Lower Alcase where they are the sole religion in that dutchy.

Population

The Kingdom of Alcase is very tall in length of the kingdom, but it lost a lot of it's western lands during the Fall of France. The population centers though were relatively unhit by the damages of the Fall of France and this led to the population of Alcase to not be devestated in the same manner as they might be believed to have been.

Military

The Kingdom of Alcase maitains a military based on normal feudal vassalage system but alongside this there are two standing armies maintained by the kingdom itself in the form of the First Strasburg Army, and the Second Strasburg army and these two forces are regulated at five thousand strong and maintain absolute loyalty to the state.
