Kadesh

History:
Kadesh has served as the naval powerhouse of the Earthborn Empire, as its territories are rich in wood, as well as gold. They occasionally need to fight off raiding parties and threats from the independent island nation of Genarctana.

The ruling house of Bellicote has always tempered the power of the richest family on the planet, House Tyristan. Recently, the patriarch of House Tyristan, Lord Vassilus, made a risky bid to replace House Bellicote with his own, sparking a civil war in Kadesh.

Unlike in Agicus, where every territory jumped at the slightest opportunity to go to war, and when the Emperor was still alive, every kingdom is shying away from taking sides in the Kadeshi Civil War. Some are simply hesitant to confront the Tyristan wealth, while others are being deliberately paid to stay silent and inactive. Whoever wins the war will be accepted as the ruler of Kadesh by the rest of the Empire, regardless of the legality.
