Alouisius is crowned by the Pope himself on Easter. 1539: After a war with the Kingdom of Dragona, Arcadia doubles its territory 1622: Start of a religious war between Catholics an Protestants, which will last for thirty years 1637: For the first time, the Parliament of Arcadia is founded. 1652: End of the Great Religious War. Catholicism prevails in Arcadia, but the surviving Protestants flee and found the Kingdom of Sealand. 1703: After the death of the king of Dragona, Arcadia claims to have right on the throne. A war follows. 1759: After many wars and treaties, the official end of the Succession War is signed. Arcadia loses all territories it conquered in 1539 1766: The Catholic Party is founded 1770: The Jacobin Movement is founded 1789: In Sealand a Jacobin Revolution breaks out. The Working Class seizes the power and declares the Republic of Sealand. 1791: The Liberal Party is founded 1796: Dragona invades Sealand, but its armies are utterly vanquished by the Republican Guard. 1799: Dragona attacks the Kingdom of Arcadia because of an old feudal disagreement. In an attempt to reestablish the old Empire of Dragona, hundreds of thousands die. The decisive battle takes place just outside Arcadia City, where the Arcadians ultimately win. Tensions with Dragona remain high, and the revolutionary Republic of Sealand is also far from being an ally. Essentially, Arcadia stands alone. Edited by Wakizashi, Dec 3 2009, 04:40 PM.
