Sova Daris
Sova Daris is a small nation by the northern of the Northen Keatian Cape, to the north of Waleapia.
History
Sova Daris, the Former Seat of the Menedynn Empire: Sova Daris, a city-state of great historical significance, was once the prestigious capital city of the mighty Menedynn Empire. It served as the political, cultural, and economic center of the empire, radiating power and influence across the region. The city boasted magnificent architecture, grand palaces, and advanced infrastructure that showcased the might and sophistication of the Menedynn civilization.
With the fall of the Menedynn Empire and the rise of The Majestic Kingdom of Keatis, Sova Daris became the new capital city of the kingdom. Recognizing the strategic and symbolic value of the ancient city, the leaders of Keatis sought to establish their rule from the prestigious seat of the former empire. By making Sova Daris their capital, they aimed to inherit the legacy and prestige associated with the once-great Menedynn civilization.
However, in 523 AB, The Bafigron Empire had conqured this province from The Majestic Kingdom of Keatis and gave it semi-Autonomy.
In the midst of the ongoing Keatisian Civil War and the desire for independence from the Bafigron Empire, the people of Sova Daris made a decisive move. They aligned themselves as closely as possible with the ideals and principles of the Republic of Waleapia, a nation that had successfully fought for and achieved its own independence only in essence, but not in name.
However, they still pay tribute for protection from the Bafigron Empire.
Religion
Sova Daris operates under the guidance of the Neomen Pantheon while still honoring the legacy of the Menedynn Pantheon. This unique blend of beliefs and practices reflects the transitional nature of Sova Daris and its quest for independence.
The Neomen Pantheon, with its diverse deities, plays a significant role in the religious and cultural landscape of Sova Daris. The pantheon's gods, such as Domidea, Helena, Ehlonna, Lune, Atgeldes, Adis, and Agonis, are highly esteemed and revered by the people, embodying various aspects of nature, creativity, and guidance.
Cults and Alternative Worship
Alongside the worship of the Neomen Pantheon and the Menedynn Pantheon, alternative cults have emerged within Sova Daris. These cults may venerate deities such as Nyx, Tharizdun, Masech, Merabyss, Abel, and Cain, offering different perspectives on divine guidance and spiritual beliefs. While not as prevalent as the mainstream pantheons, these cults provide alternative paths of worship for those seeking different forms of spirituality. Ella'li, the Lady of Poison and Mistress of Disease, and her cult have played a crucial role in advancing Sova Daris' independence. Their unyielding dedication, unconventional methods, and ability to harness the destructive forces of poison and disease have proven vital in protecting the nation. The followers of Ella'li are respected for their tenacity and their unwavering commitment to Sova Daris' cause.Foreign Relations

They rallied under the banner of independence, seeking to break free from the oppressive rule of the Bafigron Empire and establish a sovereign state governed by the principles of democracy and individual liberties.
They are aligning themselves with Waleapia involved forging alliances, establishing trade relationships, and sharing knowledge and resources. The people of Sova Daris admired Waleapia's achievements and sought to replicate its success in their own struggle for independence. They formed strong bonds with Waleapia, exchanging diplomatic envoys, military support, and cultural exchanges to solidify their alliance.
