Jacobean Cildania

[jamescfm]

In this thread, I have created an out-of-character record of the history of Cildania during the period when it was ruled by Grand Prince Ġakbu Maria. For me personally, this was among the most fun and engaging role-play I have been involved with. The aim of this thread is that other players who might want to read through role-pay from this period are able to do so easily. As a secondary effect, it allows any future players to easily understand the key developments in the country's recent history. If nothing else, it provides me with an opportunity to revisit some of the best moments. Key events have been marked with an asterisk to make them easier to locate.
