Vefcak

Vefcak was the first country founded in the Age of the Seven, and it has become the most powerful military in Getherican. Founded by the knight Sr. Vefcak during the year of 103AS, the country swelled in size and influence over the next thousand years. During that time they wiped out the country of Jaul and a race of bird people known as Kenku that ruled Jaul. During the year of 232AS, a man by the name of Herbert Gresal sparked outrage in the royal family when he started distributing handmade pamphlets describing scandals and corruption within the royal family. King Fendic ordered the capture and beheading of Herbert who had founded a new country called Nerasia. After a year, Herbert was captured and executed (Nerasia was dissolved by King Fendic later that year) Although Herbert was dead his ideas of rebellion against the royal family lived on in more pamphlets and quiet revolution. 40 years later another man by the name of Joseph Gerogia sparked another rebellion against King Fendic. Fendic quelled the rebellion with ease but the two rebellions set the path for countless other rebellions throughout the years. Before the Great War Vefcak was largely secluded and was completely self sustaining, but once Queen Sare was assassinated, King Drez V ordered the mobilization of the Vefcak army and declared war on the Ledfell. Once the war started King Drez realized that to stay out of crushing debt Vefcak needed too trade with foreign powers, so King Drez opened trade to both Kith andnEscar. With a large amount of the Underdark underneath Vefcak, Drez also opened trade with the duregar capital of Dugresa. During the war, miners found large underground cavers filled with precious stones and gems these caves became known as Caves of Wealth. The gems boosted trade with Kith and Escar and helped establish a more secure trading partnership with both countries. The trading partnership has stayed strong throughout the past. The current leader of Vefcak is King Drez VI. Rebellions still plague Vefcak from year time to time, but none have ever been successful.
