Vicnora (/ˈvɪknɑrə/; Vicnoran: Waqnōra), officially known as the Kingdom of Vicnora and also known as the Second Vicnoran Kingdom, is a island country located in central Aritonesia. It has maritime boundaries with El Kadsre, Faricia, Jazila, Screencold and Line, and Taranotochi.
History[]
Prehistory: 48th century BC-37th century BC[]
Around 4900 BC, tribes known as the Henyians arrived in Vicnora while they explore south of the Arito subcontinent.
Ancient Vicnora: 37th century BC-523[]
Vicnora was known as Vik in the early-1st millennium.
Early Vicnoran Kingdom: 523-1471[]
In 523, the kingdoms of Az, Vik, Cizipizi, Odek, Udhora, and Ramora were all unified into one country, known as “Vicnora”. At the same time, the country created its own religion known as “Viknakaism”, where Vicnora’s six predecessor states were named after gods and Vicnora was created when all six gods came together.
From 1118 to 1268, Vicnora along with Naluem fought against Jazila in the Vikcrusader Wars, where they attempted to prevent the islamification of the southern Arito subcontinent from happening. The Vikcrusader Wars ended on the ceasefire in 1268.
Middle Vicnoran Kingdom: 1471-1806[]
On January 16, 1471, the earthquake, registering 9.8 on the Richter scale, struck Vicnora. The earthquake was so powerful, it caused the island to sink to halfway.
In 1778, Vicnora had its first encounter with the outside world when British explorer James Cook, sets foot on Vicnoran soil.
Late Vicnoran Kingdom: 1806-1977[]
During the Conquest of Arito Islands, Vicnora was one of two nations of the archipelago not to be colonised by the European powers, thanks to its advanced civilisation. During the conquest, then-prince Azerik V convinced his father king Ekzirik XIX to westernize the country to avoid colonialism, in whcih Ekzirik XIX declined. This led to the Vicnoran Civil War which lasted from 1869 to 1871, in which Azerik V won the war against his father and transformed Vicnora into the constitutional monarchy. Vicnoran Kingdom was on the side of the Central Powers in World War I thanks to its close relations with German and Ottoman empires. During the war, Vicnora invaded Jazila and French colony states of Faricia and Ahmara and was ultimately defeated by the Allies in 1917.
Vlokozu Union: 1977-1989[]
During the early 1970s, like other countries of the Aritonesia, Vicnora was under threat of the spread of Vlokist influence in the archipelago. The Vicnoran Spring began in 1976, when Vicnoran students who were part of the Vicnoran Provisional Government, a Vlokozu Union-funded Vlokist group, rise up and launch a revolution to overthrow a Vicnoran royal family. After Hukina, the then-last king of the Vicnoran Kingdom was assassinated on September 12, 1977, the pro-Vlokist self-proclaimed provisional prime minister Oman Fruala overthrew the royal family and were sent to Argentina in exile, and on September 23, 1977, Michael Vlokozu visited Vicnora to sign the UVS Declaration of Annexation of Vicnora with Fruala. As the result, the Vicnoran Kingsom was annexed by the Vlokozu Union, putting a stop to its 1454-year-long existence, the end of the Vicnoran Spring and its monarchy became dormant for 30 years. After the annexation, Oman Fruala became the first governor of the Vlokozuian State of Vicnora.
Vicnora's status in the Vlokozu Union was stated to be the Vlokozuian State of Vicnora by the Vlokouzian government, the founding members of the Pacific Pact, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, along with Japan and Raland, but was internationally recognized by the United Nations and the rest of the UN as a illegal occupation of the Vicnoran Kingdom's land by the Vlokozu Union, though Michael claims that the Union had sovereignty over Vicnora following the signing of the Annexation Declaration during his speech at the UN General Assembly in 1988. Some nations who had close ties with Vicnora prior to the invasion even slapped sanctions on the Vlokozu Union for their occupation.
Vicnora was the poorest state in the Union due to overinflation in the state government that Michael Vlokozu showed opposition to. Notably, most buildings of outer Tugaganda suburbs and towns in Vicnora’s rural areaswere built from kits imported from Mahri, while most of the schools were built as the complex of portable classrooms imported from Australia. Many of these portable classroom complex schools still exist today, but nearly all of them are being demolished by the current Vicnoran government.
Modern Vicnora: 1989-present[]
The Vlokozu Union was dissolved on March 29, 1989, and was split into five countries (El Kadsre, Mahri, Sentan, North El Kadsre, and Vicnora) to form the United El Kadsreian Nations after Michael Vlokozu was assassinated. Following the collapse of the union, Vicnora went from the Vlokozuian state to the Commonwealth, with Vicnora’s parliamentary government backed by the El Kadsreian government. One year later, in 1990, Vicnora reinstatd its monarchy under Yukari I.
In November 2020, Wickaninnish Oshiro announced a return-to-democracy plan, with the country becoming a parliamentary constitutional monarchy after the 2021 Vicnoran elections, even though trust in the monarchy was very high.
