Varium

Varium was a small country located in north-western Lamos. Its capital city was Orbis, in the current Rhodean Imperium exclave of Clavis. It existed as a Vichy state between 1450 until 1590, but ceased to exist during the War of the Seven Thorns. It was politically aligned to all seven nations at war with the Imperium, but was especially linked to the Darish Union via several arranged marriages. Following the alleged execution of the Varium royal family by Imperium forces during the war for treason, left the country in political turmoil of succession, leaving the King of the Darish Union as the 38th in line of succession to take the throne in 1585 and within 5 years decreed the absorption of Varium into the Darish Kingdom. However this created significant hostility of the Vari, which continue to resonate over the centuries.
