Arietta, officially County of Arietta, is a county within the overseas crownland United Government around the Northern Sea, a part within the Frankish Empire. It is located on the Apollonia continent and belongs to what is called "Francia Orientalis".
Francia got hold of Arietta after the transfer of Mittlere Stadt to Elwynn. Only the island with the city of Hrafnkelsðalur is already under the flag of Senya.
Geography
Arietta is bordered on the north by the Northern Sea. Only 60 km (37.28 mi) is between the north cape near Elðgrímskaupstaður and the Storish island of Vinland. On the south side, Arietta borders on the Green. That border is marked by border posts, despite the heavily forested area concealing the transition from Arietta to the Green.
History
Arietta was originally a Landingbergish principality that around 1517 was vested in the Storish High King Harald Thorstein as Prince of Arietta. As such, it is, along with the peerages of Duchess of New Aquitane (held by Kaiseress Salome, currently located in Senya) and Duke of Lükanborg (held by Emperor Nathan II, currently located in Senya) the only remaining Landingbergish landed peerages in existence.
In 1624, Harald Thorstein transferred the principality, including the title Prince of Arietta, to his grandson Thorstein Noah, then Prince (later King) of Elwynn. As such, Noah was now Prince of Arietta, too. At the same time, Noah's father, Hallbjörn Haraldsson, who ruled as regent of Elwynn (as Noah was too young), decreed that all members of the Elwynnese royal family would be titled Counts or Countesses of Arietta.
For the first time in 1630 AN, Arietta became part of Elwynn. The area was originally donated by High King Harald of Stormark to his grandson Noah of Elwynn. The developments coincided with the creation of Vanic Elwynn. When the Froyalan period ended, Arietta was transferred to Imperial Shirerithian control. Shireroth began decolonising the area (1651), and evacuated the non-Froyalanish population from the territory. Similarly, Liv Dravot, the Imperial Mother and Steward for Kaiser Ayreon IV, renounced Ayreon's claim on Arietta, both territorially and titularly (1653).
Since 1680 AN, Arietta has been under the Frankish flag. Many liberated Froyalaners were given the chance by the Frankish Kaiser to populate Arietta. And many took that opportunity. In 1685 AN Arietta was placed under United Government around the Northern Sea together with the Duchy of Frisiæ.
