The Flüssland Peasant Revolt, or uprising as some word it, was an event that took place between the years of 1547 and 1549 in the North-Western regions of the Hadrian Empire known as Flüssland. Towards the last quarter of 1547 A.F.S., Zladimir de Tiri was named Reichsmarshall of the Imperial Armed Forces as a reward for his steadfast defense against the Lord of Bones who had been ravaging his home province of Flüssland of which he was Markgraf. Yet he grew evermore dissatisfied with the Crown's role within the conflict as he deemed them incompetent when they failed to make the needed alliances to stand against the undead tide, and only sent meager forces north to aid the Markgraf in need. During this growing tension Zladimir also got his hand on supposed evidence that painted the Kaiserin of the Hadrian Empire, Veredra von Lichtenfelts, as a Voidal sympathizer, and they chose to blame her for the problems the north faced. Claiming that Emperor Diederick had been put under a spell and was being used as a puppet by her. This sentiment was allowed to fester and rot under the local populace who felt ever more disconnected from the supposed rotten Empire and instead turned their hopes to the Warmaster Zladimir who had sworn to root out and destroy all Chaotic powers within the lands of Eden as his vow as Witch Hunter demands. This resentment and distrust of the Crown led to Markgraf Zladimir declaring independence on the 23rd of Sunfall, 1547. This was followed by a declaration from the Temple of Alder’s Head Inquisitor, Zladimir’s uncle Aleksander, who declared for Zladimir and demanded Veredra’s trial and execution, and a dismantling of the current regime at the threat of all-out war if the crown would not comply. Silence followed as it took time for the news to reach Adelsburg where the crown and its supporters denied the demands, and thus the newly-independent province was established with its spears turned to Adelsburg.

Prelude

The Flüssland Peasant Revolt, or uprising as some word it, was an event that took place between the years of 1547 and 1549 in the North-Western regions of the Hadrian Empire known as Flüssland. Towards the last quarter of 1547 A.F.S., Zladimir de Tiri was named Reichsmarshall of the Imperial Armed Forces as a reward for his steadfast defense against the Lord of Bones who had been ravaging his home province of Flüssland of which he was Markgraf. Yet he grew evermore dissatisfied with the Crown's role within the conflict as he deemed them incompetent when they failed to make the needed alliances to stand against the undead tide, and only sent meager forces north to aid the Markgraf in need. During this growing tension Zladimir also got his hand on supposed evidence that painted the Kaiserin of the Hadrian Empire, Veredra von Lichtenfelts, as a Voidal sympathizer, and they chose to blame her for the problems the north faced. Claiming that Emperor Diederick had been put under a spell and was being used as a puppet by her. This sentiment was allowed to fester and rot under the local populace who felt ever more disconnected from the supposed rotten Empire and instead turned their hopes to the Warmaster Zladimir who had sworn to root out and destroy all Chaotic powers within the lands of Eden as his vow as Witch Hunter demands. This resentment and distrust of the Crown led to Markgraf Zladimir declaring independence on the 23rd of Sunfall, 1547. This was followed by a declaration from the Temple of Alder’s Head Inquisitor, Zladimir’s uncle Aleksander, who declared for Zladimir and demanded Veredra’s trial and execution, and a dismantling of the current regime at the threat of all-out war if the crown would not comply. Silence followed as it took time for the news to reach Adelsburg where the crown and its supporters denied the demands, and thus the newly-independent province was established with its spears turned to Adelsburg.
