Entente of Ventemir
More actions
Template:!Nation InfoboxThe Entente of Ventemir, officially the Greater Tetrad Entente of Ventemir is a galactic power located within the Ventemir Galaxy, occupying the majority of the galaxy. Additionally, it possesses a small number of stars in Via Aylathiya. The nation is ruled by the Entente of Nobles, an organization made of four distinct species composed of the four most influential species within the Entente: Atlins, Humans, Orcubor, and Legions. It only borders the State of Tenshi. The nation has a population of 93.7 quintillion inhabitants.
Continually occupied by advanced civilizations for the last 200,000 years, The Entente occupies some of the most developed territory in its region. The Entente of Ventemir can trace its origins back to the Triumvirate Civilization. They first conquered the native Atlins in about 80,000 BCE, granting them technology in exchange for allegiance. The Triumvirate expanded to fill the whole of Ventemir.
After existing for less than fifty thousand years, the primitive Atlins soon gained advanced technology, allowing them to spread across a large portion of the galaxy. The collapse of the Triumvirate in 15,089 BCE, the Atlins formed the Lowuks Entente. After being significantly weakened by the War of the Final Transition, a human nation from Via Aylathiya, the State of Tenshi, went on to conquer it. While absorbed, the Atlins became greatly influenced by Tenshin humans to the point of adopting the aristocratic system they used. During Jezebel's War, the Entente declared independence. In 88,021 CE, four species of the galaxy united under one united aristocracy. Currently, the Entente is an associate state of the Boreal Federacy; however, it is unclear how long this relationship will remain as the nation flirts with the idea of joining the Neo-Terran Intergalactic Hegemony, another nation it is associated with.

History
The Lowuks Entente
Main Article: Lowuks Entente
The Lowuks Entente formed in 15,089 BCE after the Triumvirate fell. The provincial government was organized to run without much oversight, allowing for a smooth transition into independence. From there, the Entente quickly expanded, occupying large numbers of stars, most of which had infrastructure left over form their previous rulers. With the advantage of having an incredibly large supply of pre-built technology, they emerged as a Great Power in the early 6,000's BCE. The Entente became capable of influencing the entirety of their own galaxy and its parent, Via Aylathiya. Immediately, it learned of the other nations in the area, most notably Blumeheim and the Yohjan Confederacy. When it became increasingly clear that the Yohjan Confederacy was a threat, the Lowuks Entente entered into an alliance with the Empyrean.
The tensions between the Lowuks Entente and the Yohjan Confederacy came to a peak in 1,285 BCE. In what would later be known as the War of the Final Transition, these three great powers began a total war the likes of which has not been seen in the galaxy since then. The Yohjan Confederacy managed to even to gain ground while fighting both the Entente and the Empyrean. Eventually, the remnants of the Triumvirate launched a full scale attack on both the Entente and Yohjan Confederacy, significantly straining the resources of both sides. The Lowuks Entente won the war; however, the strain put on the civilization caused it to collapse in 1,009 CE.
Background
The State of Tenshi was the next major nation to take control of Ventemir. While technically having sovereignty over the entire galaxy, large tracts of space remained out of their control due to the cost associated with keeping the territory. They captured the three major Birch Planets in 21,691 after a long siege. Rather than treating the native Atlins and Orcubor poorly, they treated them as equals, quickly defusing any resistance movements that took form. Quality of life drastically improved under the much more peaceful Tenshin rule, especially compared to the warlords that ruled the galaxy beforehand.
After Tenshi reformed itself into the Dominium of United Duchies, an empire spanning across all of Martial Space and Ventemir, quality of life increased even more. The Dominium even outmatched the Confederacy of Borealis in terms of economic and military might. The nation would go on to collapse after ten thousand years due to the death of both monarchs at the hands of the crowned prince. This greatly destabilized the nation, causing it to collapse into various pieces. Ventemir experienced a huge influx of Vexlore, Human, and Gainge refugees after the collapse of the Dominium.
Independence
Main Article: Tenshin Dispute
The War of the Ancients and the subsequent joining of Tenshi into the Confederacy of Borealis caused a large rift to form in Tenshi. Numerous factions wanted reform into a constitutional monarchy while others wanted a different line to inherit the crown. The dispute grew to the point that the Sakagami House of Tenshi broke away, taking a large amount of territory with them.
While they would have normally been crushed by the superior military Tenshi had in Via Aylathiya, Jezebel's War prevented them from using the fullest extent of their fleets against the Sakagamis. Additionally, they received support from the nation of Drusidia and the Legion known as Legio. The gained full independence in 88,021 CE. The Atlin and Orcubor nobility, in addition to Legio, formed the Entente of Ventemir the same year.
Failed Integration Attempts
As an influential member-state within the Confederacy of Borealis, Tenshi blocked all attempts at the Entente joining the Confederacy. Even the Empire of Mankind, a longtime ally of the Sakagami House, sided with Tenshi. They only barely managed to get the status of Confederate Associate State, allowing them to continue using Confederate money and have beneficial trade deals. While Drusidia would have been a natural ally, the Confederacy forced the new monarch to side with them at risk of economic sanction.
Contemporary History
After Tenshi left the Confederacy of Borealis and the Confederacy federalized, the Entente's relationship with Borealis became much less tenuous. The Entente possesses one of the fastest growing economies, populations, and industrial capacities of any nation nearby to it. It is a center of production for various commodities including large numbers of objects fit for the Abnormal Commodity Exchange, including large numbers of artifacts from the Triumvirate civilization. Ventemir can compare to Via Aylathiya in many ways thanks to the Entente. The galaxy is often viewed as an equal to Via Aylathiya.
Government and Politics
The Crown
The Entente of Ventemir is governed by the four "native species" despite only two truly native species having representation. The noble houses of these species have the powers of the monarch, meaning the crown lies with all four of them at once. The Atlin nobles are known as the Ventenojima House, Humans as the Sakagami House, and the Orcubor as the Gozono House. The Legions receive one representative who is simply known as "Legio." This Legion used to be one of the three rulers of the ancient Triumvirate civilization.
The Archon
Any individual a part of the Noble Houses can run for the position of Archon. The Archon approves new laws and measures pushed forward by the Noble Houses. They have the ability to block laws as well as the right to declare war and manage trade. The position is tremendously important and is thus not hereditary. For the sake of allowing the people of Ventemir to have a say in government, they are able to vote for whichever noble they please (apart from Legio).
