Acroshia

The founding fathers of Acroshia were 5 leaders that decided to rule as a council rather than a dictator. Acroshia was first in Shar with “Democracy” in that sense. The rule of Acroshia during their time wasn't spectacular, not for the majority anyway, as the gap between rich and poor was extreme. About 5% lived in extreme wealth and comfort, these were mainly the scholars and intellectuals. The remaining population suffered from starvation and poverty. More than half the population were slaves that worked long hours to build impressive buildings throughout the lands. Once the Dark Ages came things quickly changed, as Mishra lead the assault through the deepest parts of the desert. The five kings tried protecting the people. All but one fell as Mishra and her armies ravaged through the 3 major cities in the north. As a result of this, the majority of the resources were pulled away from the south and the grip of Seth had weakened which lead to a revolt by a man known as Mhim. Mhim and the slaves broke free and charged the palace of Seth. Mihm himself killing the last king while he still sat on this throne. The piercing blow was rumored to be so fill of hate that it pierced the back of the throne itself. If one were to look on the throne today, the hole would still be there. Mhim became the ruler, freed most of the slaves. Instead of trying to advance to overtake the fallen cities (which the 5 kings tried, and failed to do) he pulled back the forces and kept a defensive line. As a result of this decision, there were less casualties but unfortunately many people became homeless. These people became known as the Mirin. The Mirin are known as raiders and thugs and are not welcome in any city under the rule of Mihm. Over the years the conflicts between the Mirin and Acroshia increased. Some Mirin even swore fealty to Mishra, in promise for change and shifts of power, unbeknownst that she was the one that caused their suffering to begin with. The 5 kings were buried in crypts according to their wills. Not to be visited.
