malinor was ww2buffs pipe dream, it became nonexistent because him and twi got banned so there was no ooc overarching force to keep the celia'nor, elvenesse, and nor'asath together

TLDR; the 'goats' got banned

ww2buff finally achieves snelven hegemony and then gets banned damn

Amathea is the city, Elvenesse is the Nation. It's the same place, with the same title!

Amaethea - Lord of the Craft

The Wiki says it's called "the Crown of Amathea" though. What's that about?

I'm not too sure about the Malinor treaty. I imagine its still in place, but two of the Nation Leads got banned, and the third recently passed the crown. The bans kind of shut down Malinor's attempts to "subjugate" the Vale and other locations.

Can't their heirs just do it? Or did all the heirs just decide to not host another election?

Oh are you talking about modern-day malinor? That was my original comment, god damn it:

 

I'm too lazy to retype. There's your full answer!

Well I meant a little after that, when Aegrothond became Elvenesse and then Amathea (were these regime changes or did they just change name for shits n giggles?) b4 joining Malin'or with Celia'nor, the Snelves, and whoever else. That recent Malinor just seemed to split apart without a word said.

But yeah thanks for filing me in on that stuff, always wondered wtf Aegrothond was and why it wasn't just part of the Dominion.

If you took time to read the wiki you find out that In the first section of wood elven history it states the falls of Malinor 

 

“Malin disappeared, and soon the Citizens felt the crumble, as the aherals were the first to leave.”

I'm honestly not sure if you're joking or not.

I've been asking every day for like 3 months now and no one ever knows

"The kind of PAGANS who bother with horoscopes, Your Ladyship," comments a servant, pouring a coup of tea beside her. "Wait, who the **** is this?" she might think, but the servant would disappear like a spectre were she to look, only leaving behind a business card titled "Canonist Services Ltd." with an undertext explaining how good Canonist men with family values in your area could help YOU, yes YOU, with your pagan problem.

"There are many methods by which power is concentrated. One, that being the control over arms, was first implemented by Haense under the rules of Sigmar I and Robert I and completed around the reign of Andrik III. Another, that concerning how the institutions of government such as law, justice, taxation, legislation, the like, are applied broadly to the state rather than regionally, was practiced by Oren and from there exported to Haense.

 

Furthermore, our comment regarding the Adrian critiques of the Petrine System is in reference to their disparaging of the imperfection of various institutions such as the Diet, the Courts, etc. It is noted that their critiques stood opposite from the absolutists, as the Adrians and those others saw the Petrine System as a corruption of more democratic, meritocratic practices in Adria and an extension not of enlightened thought from the Novellens, but simply their desire to have a controlled mechanism by which to give the pretenses of liberties to the people."

 

So comes a reply to Stanimar.

"The legal system certainly. I believe it was even drafted by lawyers from the Imperial Circuit Courts. The legislature and Aulic Council, however, long predate the Petrine Empire, and have never, to my knowledge, fundamentally changed in form or function. I'm not familiar with how the Queen's Council functions or where the system traces its origins, but I'll also cede that the burgeoning tradition of the Consort being elevated to be the Monarch's equal clearly comes from the Empire through Anne-Joseph and Philip-Anastasia. A trend that's even catching on among the nobility.

As for the Adrians: it's a dishonest critique on their part then. From what I can see, the Josephite Mafia was an unholy union of Adunians and Adrians. O'Rourkes and de Sarkozies. Surnames that would make you shudder. That remark stays within the bookclub though, before any loose lips get me in trouble with the Duke."

"It would be prudent to note that while in this Volume it is implied that the centralisation of Haense is a replication of the Petrine Empire's efforts, in a previous Volume he correctly notes that the Empire actually copied Haense, who had long banned levies and stripped the nobility of the right to do build much of anything on their lands before the Imperial Crown even conscienced it. Indeed, Haense is actually considerably less centralised today than it was then, allowing its nobles to rule over settlements and establish large house guards," Stanimar writes in a letter addressed to his snail-mail historical book club, "And the Adrian opposition to liberal institutions is a tad dubious, with the Senate arising during the reign of Adrian de Sarkozy, Duke of Adria, and surely drawing at least some inspiration from Adrian representative bodies like the Duma or the Assembly of Ves."
