| - | Selcaria was created during the early years of the Second Irillian Empire. Three legions (II Coranni, III Leppapi, V Domonii) marched around the southern shore of the [[Caragan Sea]], conquering the people that lived there. During this time they constructed a grand road that stretched from the Irillian Senate to what is now called [[Valparia]]. Along this road they built a string of fortified strongholds from which their soldiers could sally. | + | Selcaria was created during the early years of the Second Irillian Empire.

| Because a Irillian soldier serving in the legion would be given newly conquered land instead of pay, as the legion moved westward the land they conquered was populated by retired soldiers and their families. When the native population was sufficiently pacified prefect [[people:Anicetus]] named his cousin [[people:Agostino]] as governor of the Selcarian diocese. Agostino was a petty tyrant and within five years the populace was openly rioting. | Because a Irillian soldier serving in the legion would be given newly conquered land instead of pay, as the legion moved westward the land they conquered was populated by retired soldiers and their families.

| Anicetus, furious that Agostino could not keep the roads open enough for supplies to reach his legions, quartered the V Domonii legion and stationed them in and around Valparia to protect his northern border against the elves. The II Coranni was to continue the attack to the west until they reached the sea. The III Leppapi was turned over to Agostino to pacify Selcaria. Agostino divided the legion into its cohorts and had them man strongholds along the road. The riots continued to grow in strength, so he broke up each cohort into their century and divided them among the larger villages - except for the prima cohort which maintained the stronghold. When the Legatus' protested they were jailed for insubordination and replaced by people allied with the Agostino. | Anicetus, furious that Agostino could not keep the roads open enough for supplies to reach his legions, quartered the V Domonii legion and stationed them in and around Valparia to protect his northern border against the elves.

| - | The rioters continued to grow stronger each week and the diocese would have descended into full civil war except for two things. The first was the attack by the elves that sacked the port city of [[Arapis]] which gave the elves uncontested access to the [[Caragan Sea]]. The second was that most of the the V Domonii had abandoned [[Valparia]] after word reached them that Legatus [[people:Nevio]] was jailed by Agostino and awaiting trial for treason. | + | The rioters continued to grow stronger each week and the diocese would have descended into full civil war except for two things.

| - | After fighting their way through scattered centuries of the III Leppapi they reached [[Tourniki]] and freed Nevio. While some of the III Leppapi centuries sided with the Agostino, the majority of them rallied to Nevio's camp. It took almost three years, but they where able to trap Agostino's army and destroy it. With the Governor dead and the elves besieging the Imperial Senate, the magistrates of each of the Selcarian provinces declared themselves independent and no longer answerable to the Senate. The Senate could not little to stop them from leaving as the elves had already established control over one city on the eastern bank of the Caragan Sea. | + | After fighting their way through scattered centuries of the III Leppapi they reached [[atlas:Tourniki]] and freed Nevio.
