	Arangothians are ethnically a mixture of the native [[Goxal]] and the invading [[Igmerinds\|Igmerind]] people, founders of several sitharangel or grand duchies a few hundred years ago. In the year 1, the [[Sithire]] or Grand Duke of Northern Arangoth founded the city of [[Tagrana]], which is considered to mark the founding of the Kingdom of Arangoth. [[Tagran]], the first king, was originally considered only the first among equals. However, about the year 130, a conflict among the lesser sithirel led to the extinction of the major families, and the King became yet more powerful by virtue of his ability to appoint provincial leaders. Around 300, when Arangoth was embroiled in a war with the [[Assi]], the [[Order of the Beady Eye]] offered its services to the monarchy, assured Arangothian victories there and elsewhere, and became increasingly powerful on the frontiers of the Kingdom.		==Origins==

Around 300, when Arangoth was embroiled in a war with the Assi, the [[Order of the Beady Eye]] offered its services to the monarchy, assured Arangothian victories there and elsewhere, and became increasingly powerful on the frontiers of the Kingdom.

			==Pre-Alysia==

			King Aladar took as his second wife Rosebud, the daughter of an Eastern Arangothian witch. When her true nature was revealed, it became necessary for an impostor named Tsetsa to impersonate the Queen in public. Dissatisfied with this role, Tsetsa convinced the [[Kahlahra\|Khalar]] ambassador Helehkri that Arangoth was planning to invade its northern neighbor. This led to a bloody and needless war beginning in the year 384, a war which, however, Arangoth won handily. The Khalar surrendered and turned over to Arangoth their most prized possession, the Siren Stone, which caused a number of problems in and of itself.

			King Dorn sent his three sons Arlok, Oryan, and Ware out into the far provinces so that they could learn at first hand how to govern. There the princes discovered that the Order of the Beady Eye had long been abusing their powerful position on the frontier. King Dorn vowed to oust the corrupt Order from power; the Order in turn gathered its forces to resist. About the same time, Prince Arlok and his fiancee [[Melinxa Swanneck]] turned hungry wolves on a group of girls of noble birth who were conspiring to murder an innocent peasant; this was the infamous [[Slaughter in the Maze]]. As a result, both the Order of the Beady Eye and a large part of the Arangothian nobility rose up and, in an attack upon Tagrana in the year 415, murdered King Dorn as his three sons fled from the destruction of the city. For the next fifty years there was no monarchy in Arangoth.

			==Alysia and Regency==
			When Queen Alysia (called AngelSin) and her consort, King BLKDRAGON, established their new capital in [[Drache]] in the year 465, they ruled it directly from Castle Black for a small number of years. They governed more and more of Arangoth, as word of Dorn's blood returning to Arangoth spread throughout the shattered kingdom and fiefs flocked to her banner. But the King and Queen never lost their humility, and familiarity with their people, best illustrated in their steadfast devotion to the [[BlkDragon Inn\|King's Inn]] in ever-growing [[Drache]].

			They were succeeded, after leaving for mysterious reasons, by their counselor, the arch-mage known as [[The Raven]]. Though wise and powerful, the Regent was also reclusive and by all accounts spent most of his time in the towers of Castle Black. The time came when he inexplicably disappeared altogether, leaving the running of the country to its bureaucrats and local lords. It was later revealed that he was combating unseen threats to Arangoth, though he has not explained the nature of the matters that keep him occupied even to the present day.

			When Drache was faced with myriad disasters in the year 469, several prominent nobles rose up to fill the vacuum. Lady Lorla Daranek called together a Council to take the reigns of the Regency in Evening Star (December) of 469. They named an empty seat for The Raven, should he choose to return and began to tackle Drache’s problems. Their chosen symbol was a fatted goose and sheaf of wheat in an unbroken circle, for plenty and concord.

			==Arlok==

			Simultaneously, [[Arlok ul-Dorn]], the Prince of Old Arangoth, awakened from an enchanted sleep of fifty years in Outer Arangoth and returned home. After a series of misunderstandings and tests, he was declared King in Northern Arangoth, the northern Diet never having been keen on The Raven, a foreigner, and preferring the King to the Council. Soon it came to light that still-missing Queen Alysia had abdicated some years ago, and the Council negotiated Arlok's becoming King of all Arangoth in 470. The Council remained in provincial control of the southern provinces.

			After a powerful controversy begat a political uprising in Drache, the Council was disbanded in 473 and one of its last members, Lord [[Marcion ul-Fenduth Tagran Aldenbar\|Marcion Aldenbar]], named [[Lord Chancellor]]. He was also directed by His Majesty to find a new Sithire, or Duke, to rule the South, in a more traditional form of Arangothian government.

			From the North, Arlok returned to Southern Arangoth. After months of tension the nation was at peace once more under King Arlok ul-Dorn and the provincial government of the Regency Council. An Aslari-Ellurian war was settled only when armies from across the sea intervened.
