The Medieval Kingdom of Dantonl is a nation located in the region of Dalrawduel. It is a monarchy with a singular King as the head of government.
History
Danton was founded by a group of Terrangelian refugees who settled on a vast plain of fertile land in the far east. After gaining aid from the surrounding civilizations of elves, dwarves, warlogs, and men, they began to form many great cities and soon extended their influence widely enough to form an entire nation of their own. It came with a great battle against those who opposed their conquest, but the refugees and their followers were victorious, and made peace with all their other neighbors. Their leader, Uril Furecoson, became the King of the newly formed realm and later married the elven maiden Beithelia, who became his queen.
Beithelia bore Uril two sons, Menledur and Ropan. Upon the deaths of his parents many years later, Menledur took the throne as the second king of Danton. This followed some dispute over how the system of inheritance was to operate, in which several citizens opposed his reign to begin with.
Yet Menledur proved himself a wise king, and won great renown through his conquest of northern territory and his hosting of the great Council of Menledur. He also led the war against the corrupt government of Mulof in order to end the oppression of the nation's people.
Since its foundation, Danton has grown into a prosperous realm and has gained great economic and militaristic strength. The same royal line persists today, still under the rule of Menledur. There is no queen at present, leaving Menledur's brother Ropan as the current heir to the throne.
Government
The system that is currently in use is a monarchy, unlike any other nation nearby. The King is the Head of State, currently Menledur Urilson.
The king inherits the position from his father. In the event of ruler's death where the king has no sons, his wife may take the throne as queen. Should she be unable to take up the task, their oldest daughter may do so instead. In lack of a wife or children, a king is to be succeeded by his oldest brother, and if that becomes impossible, his oldest sister. Should no heir be apparent in any way, then the highest nobles should select one of their number to take up the crown.
Royal Family
The Royal Family of Danton has no power save their head, but still retain a grand style of living. The current family consists of King Menledur and his brother Ropan, their parents both being dead and neither of them being married.
