The Empire of Ardelia is a wiki based geofictional "micronation" located on the fictional planet of Mors Prime. More specifically, within the continent of Archia. The nation is currently subdivided into three constituencies (North Ardelia, South Ardelia and Soul Island). The state is also a member of the LSN.
History
Ardelia was one of the founding members of the planet of Mors Prime. The nation was also the founding state if the LSN.
Real Life
The nation of Ardelia was founded in late March of 2019 by micronationalist Charles (Charlie) Ross. The state was founded in an attempt to create a new simulationist state that would spearhead Mr. Ross' new project, the fictional planet of Mors Prime.
In Universe
According to historical records, the earliest known mention of the word "Ardelia" to refer to the land in Archia was in early 1503 when it is believed that Ardelia began it's existence as a feudal state of the (now) Vossk Empire. It was during this time (roughly 1503-1541) that Ardelia was ruled over by it's first feudal Lord. This individual was Prince Justinian I, Grand Duke of Ardelia.
Ardelia remained a feudal vassal state of Vossk for the next three hundred years until early 1890. It was at this time that political instability within Vossk led to a collapse of the government and the feudal system with it. Seeing that Vossk was to preoccupied to deal with it (and seeing that his people wished to live as an independent nation) then ruler Princess Argoli I, Grand Duchess of Ardelia declared her nations independence from Vossk and on 3 October 1898, the Imperial State of Ardelia was formed and Princess Argoli's son, Prince Justinian (who had become ruler of Ardelia in 1896) was crowned as the first Shah of Ardelia, taking the title of Shah Justinian II.
