The Kingdom of Gwessly (Guh-Vest-Lee) was formed in 112 First Era under Gwessly I after tribal centralization became too inefficient. A cruel leader, Gwessly I ruled with an iron fist, making sure all under him obeyed his demands. For the next 16 years under the control of Gwessly, the nation expanded in territory across the coastal regions of Valmor. Insufficient records due to the extreme amount of control can all but show his reign. Angry from being oppressed and taxed heavily, the peasants began the Uprising Of 128 attacking Gwen and killing Gwessly I. His son rose to power for three months until he was assassinated by aspiring nobles wishing to take the throne. A noble heir, by the name of Antoney Leon would become Antoney I and would lead Gwessly out of the dark times.
History
Uprising Of 128
The Uprising Of 128 began after a small peasant army formed in the southern region South Wessly angered by heavy taxation. The uprising shook the Kingdom, initiating the essence of a Civil War upon the government. On December 14th of 128, the fateful 1st Battle of Gwen killed thousands as waves of peasants stormed the castle where Gwessly I lived after his army had unknowingly been decimated. Gwessly I was killed in the attack, allowing his son, Gwessly II to take the throne. Gwessly II sat on the throne for three months, attempting to save what he could of the caving Kingdom. He was later killed in the early 129 First Era by assassins sent by noble heirs.
The uprising killed approximately 3,400 citizens of Gwessly. The Kingdom was reformed to allow much more freedom among the populace, but much higher corruption than before seeped into its foundation. A noble heir to the throne, by the name of Antoney Leon would be coronated as Antoney I and rule the Kingdom for the next 15 years.
