Becoming Caledonia

In 1589 the aging King Leopold V of Caledin, started on the work to unite the seven Kingdoms and Dukedom into on large country, this wasn't done until 1623. When his sone King Leopold VI signed the treaty of dismantling of the 7 kingdoms an establishment of Kingdom of Caledonia. In the early years, there was a lot of problems, specially when it come to politics, but with the help of Duke's of Greenwich and Mirad, they managed to get trough several political problems, and over the years several prominent people come to the power and put Caledonia on the map.


History

No one is sure when the first people arrived, but it is belivede the first people appeared around 4000-2500 BC, since there have been found small amount of evidence from that period, but a lot of evidence of human activity already in the Bronze age.

Around the 5th to the 10th century is known as the era of exploration, and during those time periode come the inspiration of establishing kingdoms and dukedom although they wasn't truly called kingdoms and dukedom back then, just now in the modern era we call them that. Lot of the early history from that era come from other countries where they traveled to.

In the 16th century there was a power struggle among the nobility and the government that worked close together to manage the country on behalf of the Royal family. After more than 2 month with problems, the king ordered his Royal Guard consisting of the Caledonia Royal Guard and The Royal Donisars royal Knights to take control of the government and the Nobility and put them all under house arrest. 2 week later the King had them all meet him in "the 7 Kings hall" of his palace, where he was extremely furious of them and fired the entire government and had all the nobility lose most of their power up until then. First 6 month later, the nobility regained some of it previous powers, but they received a lot of restrictions and the king loyal adviser Duke Mirad received a seat in the parlament and Duke Greenwich received a seat in the Government, and basically become the kings watch dogs.

- Duke Mirad noted in his personal Notes: "I have never seen the King or hear any pst history from my family about the King being this angry. During the meeting in "the 7 Kings hall", every single person that was there never muttered a word, the only one that spoke, or more jelled, was the King. People that was there says they was truly scared of there life for the first time in their life, many of the nobility belivede that this was this.

It goes down in history that not a single people in that government managed to get back in politics, some become a farmer, some become a scholar/teacher. And the nobility had lost their trust in the king, and the King that come after him, wasn't very "nice" to the nobility. The nobility had truly destroyed their harmony with the royal family. And after that, there would never be any nobility connection between the nobility, the government and the Royal family. The government was for the common people, by the common people. The birth of the modern Caledonia government, there would be several changes to the government over the years. but the King stod after this very strong among the common people, they felt he spoke the mind of the people to the nobility and the government during that power struggle.
