=General Information= ==Geography== There are three continents on Rosskar, which are known locally as the 'provinces'. Each of these places carry their own distinct culture and history, but share a common language and heritage. In ages past, rulership of the provinces was held by the King of Rosskar and his appointed Governors. The territory encompassing these regions was truly vast. Technological regression made administrating these gigantic swathes of land even more cumbersome to the point that a highly decentralized nature of government had to be adopted in order for there to be any functionality. Over the generations since however, communication advancements have made it possible to keep these large territories more connected than ever before destroying the hundred of individual identities to create only handful. '''The Takaut Province''' ----- The most historically significant province on Rosskar, Takaut was home to the first settlement to emerge during the Long Night on the planet. Itar was a couple of bunkers and shacks huddled together, but out of all other places they had been able to scrape together some of the lost knowledge from the previous age. These people would brand themselves the Royals, marrying and intermarrying to cement their relationship between one another. Wanderers seeking shelter arrived at the ramshackle town immediately being pressed and prodded with incredulous scrutiny. The most agreeable among these lost souls became the Royals first servants, the Vityaz. The rest as they say, is history. Itar grew to magnificent size, taking control over the settlements all over Takaut. But it wasn't enough. Soon a handful of Royals set out with Vityaz towards the east and west, across plains of ice. The peasants that accompanied them died by the hundreds, but it did not matter to their lords. They had more thousands to send. The provinces of Xivan and Crazkahn were established setting up supply lines to send a constant stream of goods and material home. Takaut flourished, the funds going immediately to building opulent structures of great grandeur to the Royals. New cities began to pop up all over the province, soon becoming the most populated province on Rosskar. The growth was unprecedented, and unsustainable. Hardly any steps had been taken by the Royals to prepare the hungry mouths that were being born every minute of the day. In hardly ten years since the trade between provinces opened did a famine strike just as food stocks rain dry. The greatest peasant revolt ever occurred then, forcing the Vityaz to conscript peasants to fight for them in order to avoid being overwhelmed. Takaut would be the site of other such great uprisings, culminating in the War of the Three Kings when the infamous figure Joh'Cal was assassinated by the Royal Family. This sparked the second greatest ever peasant revolt in history, with a deathtoll of one billion lives. After the tragedy of the revolts came the iron rule of Alexandri. Itar was converted into the Central Plain Economic Grid, later turned into the Central Plain Defense Grid after the arrival of the Emperor. The six nearby cities to Itar were all connected, defenses arrayed within and without to deny any attacker easy victory. It was the thriving heart of new Rosskan culture with improved housing, unparalleled education opportunities, and the finest military training centers on the planet. Industry was also key here, with much of the raw materials from Xivan being either converted into goods there or at the nearby Urachen Mountain Complex. After the first holocaust, nothing remained by ruins of the Central Plain. What little was left was abandoned, parts of the city too irradiated to live. It was left as a hollow monument to failed ambitions. The second holocaust saw it used as the place of the Silver Cataphracts last stand as the survivors fled to it. Afterwards it became one of the last settlements on Takaut as all else had been taken by the forests. It is here where the Ecclesiarchy holds its grasp on the planet, training up Rosskans to kill the beasts that lurk in the darkness and fell their virulent tree life.
