Summary
The northernmost state of Valhalmont is comprised of the colonies of Valhalmont, Tyr, Longa, Ohya, and Hampshear. Its chief industries are hunting and timber, although it exports very little of its products to other states. The leader of the state of Valhalmont has the title of Chief, and it is a role that is available to whomever can best the current Chief and their supports in combat.
Valhalmont was the last state to ratifiy the Vinland Constitution and establish United Vinland. The ratification only occurred after Valhalmont's failed invasion of Regenia.
Colonial Era
Valhalmont was the 12th established colony during Vinland's Colonial Era. It was the tiniest colony by land size and saw very little development. Valerie Halmont, the former wife of Deus Ultima who received the colony, died within the first year of arriving in the colony due to its harsh climate. She had no demigod heirs, and the surrounding colonies of Tyr, Longa, Ohya, and Hampshear banded together to instill a Governor in order to bring structure to the chaotic land.
The installed Governor lasted barely as long as Valerie Halmont before the Valhalmonter's killed him. While the neighboring colonies worried over the barbaric nature of Valhalmont, the colony actually had a relative peace thanks to a rule and order imposed through fighting and strength. The Vallhalmonters fell in line under the rule of a Chief, a member of their own who bested all competitors in direct combat.
Upon the arrival of Cambria Unchained, he allowed the Valhalmont's system to continue due to the peace and stability the colony experienced combined with his own love of combat.
The Culling
Valerie Halmont, the namesake of the colony, was half-Lyanan which mirrored the original settlers in the state who all had varying levels of Lyanan blood. This resulted in many of the Valhalmonters seeing the Lyanans not as a separate race, but as part of their own. This identity shaped the colony's response to Deus Ultima's commandment known as the Culling, the order that all Lyanans be killed.
Whereas most colonies tried to delay this commandment, the Valhalmonters loudly refused, and their Chief at the time, Harbison Killian, threatened all of the other colonies that Valhalmont would destroy them if they went along with this commandment. The four neighboring colonies risked Valhalmont's threat and executed a handful of Lyanans as a way to appease Deus Ultima. The Valhamonters were not bluffing, and soon began their assault on the four colonies.
Their rampage across the colonies was violent and destructive as thousands perished and many more fled the fighting for the safety of the southern colonies. Cambria Unchained and the Blessed began to battle the Valhalmonters across the four colonies, but this just further led to more collateral damage and more people abandoning Tyr, Longa, Ohya, and Hampshear. As the rampage in the north continued,
War of Revolutions
Why did they rebel? The culling. Various small groups in each of the four colonies began to emerge who refused to go along with the culling. They eventually banded together to take over those colonies and join together as Valhalmont. They eventually saw themselves as their own country and wanted to take over Regenia until President Harmen squashed the invasion and forced them to ratify the constitution.
