Government Name The Grand Duchy of Lomarre Government: Administrative Duchy Head(s) of State and Government: Duke: Carlo-Felice XVIII di Haggia Alterran Ambassador Ference Gorz Noble's Power (Scale of 1-10): 3 The government is has not constitution, but has a Bill of Rights, which cannot be removed from law, as decided by Xavier VI who is also known as the "Kind". The duke uses a Administrate Duchy idea, meaning he has more power over nobles, but Nobles can still retain their title, have complete control of their fief, and can keep 20% of their military forces at their military bases, but ussually, don't. The nobles know in modern day wars, to never hold back men if the battle is truly needed. They trust Carlo enough, for uniting Lomarre, to be given more men. Their are four main Noble houses: Di Haggia, which is Duke Carlo Felice's, and is still growing since it's beginning in 1132. The Dynasty has spread into Neztec recently... Di Vespucci, a dying dynasty which has only two men left. They control both the county and barony of Vespucci. d'Cristo, A growing dynasty that owns owns one county and 2 baronies. Porreti, a New dynasty which began when a Lomarren Noble married a Slostian. It has 3 baronies in the south. It is the only dynasty to show Cerberus AND Slostian culture. As of right now, Carlo Felice XVIII has has no child, his brother Lorenzo is his heir, and neither of them are married. He has a few options like Mistlight's Soccer playing Princess, and Demoness' multiple clans of Noblewomen. Edited by Lomarre, Jan 22 2013, 11:11 AM.

Culture Population: 32,491,300 (2010 Census) Population Denomination: 78% Lomarren 12% Slostian 5% Veldrian 3% Esprit 2% Justosian Population in support of Duke Carlo: (Independent Survey) 29,993,000 In favor Lomarre is part of the Cerberus "grouping", due to the impact the Cerberus Empire had on Lomarre. The Lomarren Capital of Trivenze has over 20 buildings from the 300's BCE. The job of Lomarre is to keep it's culture intact, by any means possible. The Cities of Cerberia, Trivenze, and Meridia still have buildings of Cerberus architecture, that are world known historical structures. An example is the Leaning Tower of Urbino. Language: Cerberus (Main) Slostian (Accepted) Navis (Accepted) Religion: Lomarre's main religion is the Cerberus Universal Church, which was founded in 13 CE by disciples of Yeshua, who is believed to be the son of God . The church believes in the Holy Trinity of Yahweh, Yeshua, and the Holy Force as supreme over ALL. The Duchy's policy since the 1960's has been a seperation between Chruch and State. However, Grand Duke Carlo Felice XVIII is a follower of the Church. Edited by Lomarre, Jan 23 2013, 11:10 PM.

History: Trivenze, circa 1132, the year the di Haggia's began their reign. Early-Middle Medieval Period: 1132-1509 Trivenze has been the heart of Cerberus thought, even after the collapse of the Cerberus Empire. Trivenze has kept much of it's culture alive due to isolation. However, by 1212, the County of Trivenze became a Merchant Monarchy, which was ruled by Sebastian II di Haggia. He would run much of the enlarged duchy, while burghers would run day to day issues. They became nobility and barons in a sense. Isolation ended that year, and culture and trade items poured in. Thus, a trade route known as the "Gem Road", began. Lomarre being a fishing and mining nation, relied on luxuries for its people. The trading with Xia, mainly with Demoness helped an economy grow. Also, in the south trading with the Kingdom of Slostia helped. A few Royal marriages with the Slostian Royal house also kept relations under control. Also, ideas began to spread all across the country by 1401. Thus began a renaissance. Also colonialism began to spark in the duchy. Liberia was a chance to show the world who Lomarre was. By 1509 Lomarre had a decent colonial empire, however it overgrew it's boundaries and over-extension brought inflation. The Fall of the Duchy: 1510-1790 The inflation almost killed the ducat by 1511, resulting in bankruptcy for the Duchy and it's people. The "Grand Depression" lasted from 1511-1540 Not much is known in this period due to the utter loss of learning and writing too. The Duchy was split into dozens of county's and baronies by 1540. The county of Trivenze, which was still ruled the di Haggia Dynasty For the next 250 years, many militaristic counts tried to reclaim the Grand Duchy, to no avail. In 1698, the United Counties of Trivenze and Cerberia had their first embassy built, in Orchyre. By 1790, the United Counties formed the Duchy of Trivenze The Lomarren Rebirth: 1790-1898 The Duchy of Trivenze was to most Hesperians just called Lomarre, since it held much of the power in the area. In 1823, the Duke Dominic di Haggia III married the countess Anne d'Meridia. Anne was the final d'Meridia and decided that her dynasty was doomed anways. She allowed the Duke's children to be of his last name. By this time the Duchy claimed more than half of Lomarre, and finally regain the title, the Grand Duchy of Lomarre By 1856, with Grand Duke Alfonso I reigning, he put into place mass colonization into Xia. This land grab was due to the other Hesperian Nations grabbing land elsewhere in Alterra. In 1877, with Grand Duke Carlo-Felice IX, he was able to buy the baronies of Slostia Minor, which was the contested hotspot between Lomarre and Slostia. In 1898, the Grand Duchess Isola III married Vagne Gimmerad, the cousin of Laridus Gimmerad II, Slostia's King at the time. The marriage helped bolster relations between the two nations The events leading to Great War/the Great War itself: 1899-1945 Please see the Great War page in the factbook.

LRA: Lomarren Republica Armee. Created in 1989 by Retired Lt. Colonel Leonardo Zora Zora is known to be cruel and is never satisfied. His nickname is "Colonel Z". ![]() At least 1,200 rebels are in the LRA, and the numbers is slowly rising. The LRA's main goal is to set up a Democratic Government, in a brutal way. However, when/if they do, they will not be democratic, but much more of an oligarchy with fake elections. They use terrorism to scare the people away from the Grand Duke, which does not seem to be working. Most Lomarrens are actually supporting the Monarchy now more than ever. LRA forces are responsible for the terrorist attack that killed 97 people and wounded 211 on December 26th at 12:26 AM. The LRA has also claimed responsibility for shooting down a Army helicopter, killing 12. The LRA bombed a large Destroyer called the Tirol, and killed 122, and wounded a few dozen Lomarren forces gained support from Demoness Anti-Terrorism advisors, and Demoness has been seen as Lomarre's helper in this strategy. Steffanica, Lomarre, and Demoness have been pushing to make the LRA a Recognized Terrorist Organization, to get more support in wiping them out. Edited by Lomarre, Jan 18 2013, 09:31 PM.

The Royalty The di Haggia dynasty was born from Lorenzo Parcelli di Haggia, after he created the surname when he became nobility, in the year 1122. Today, it remains a big player in Dynistic affairs. ![]() It's relationship with Neztec is new, however, they have a deep bond thanks to their goverment ideas and the marriage of Emperor Consort Marco di Haggia and Empress Minah di Haggia. Although some nobles in Neztec worry over a new dynasty leading the nation, many see it as a chance to make the country much better and modern. The relationship with the ousted Slostian Royal Dynasty, the Gimmerads, have been good. Although in the past, mainly in the 1800's, the dynasties were regional rivals. However, when the Gimmerads were ousted from Slostia, the Lomarren Duchess at the time, Edessa IV, allowed them to remain in South Lomarre until Slostia allowed them back. South Lomarre had a fairly large Slostian population, thus the Gimmerads felt right at home. They currently reside in the Barony of Slostia Minor and the Barony of Kassa. Slostia, may not agree with this stance, but seem to not hold a grudge on Lomarre over this. The Dynasty has plans to make royal contact with Demoness. Although the Empire's main royal family has no marriage options, Demoness' many clans allows the di Haggia's to marry many women or men. A clever marriage (Meaning a di Haggian woman marrying a Demoness Male)could get the di Haggian name into Demoness. ![]() (The current control the dynasties in Lomarre have) Edited by Lomarre, Jan 24 2013, 07:45 PM.
