    Keys: The Western Veridian Empire, Pinarbarus, Fararbo · Secondary: Pinarbarus Feudalism, Auditos II

    Once the Kayikals captured Alamaron in 8853, the old Veridian empire’s capital, the Imperial Court was split in two. Supporters of the Fararbo family established their own kingdom in the Pinarbarus region. Although they claim to be the true and legitimate heirs of Veridian and emphasize their Veridian identity in official documents, other forces on the Navinorme continent are more accustomed to calling them the Kingdom of Pinarbarus. The system of Pinarbarus, or "The Western Veridian Empire", is far from being as close to the real ancient Veridian Empire as Mirakulium Island, known as "The Eastern Veridian Empire". Pinarbarus does not rely on a complex and large bureaucratic system to centralize power. On the contrary, their system seems to be very "decentralized": with the emperor as the supreme ruler, different levels of warlords form a pyramid. In most cases, low-level warlords are only responsible to the higher warlords who directly rule over them. Unless an emergency occurs, it is rare to intervene across levels. As the ruler of Pinarbarus, the Fararbo family was a branch of the Aureflor family, the royal family of the ancient "The First Empire of Veridia". In 9015, the head of the Fararbo family, the ruler of Pinarbarus, was named Auditos II.

    The capital of the Kingdom of Pinarbarus, or as they call themselves, The Western Veridian Empire, is Altacollis, the first city founded by the Veridians in Pinarbarus. It was originally a castle built on Altacollis Hill, the highest hill in Pinarbarus, from which a sentry with good eyesight could see the signals from all the posts guarding "The Woods Roads" in the Nociva Forest. Later, many civilians also settled by the river at the foot of the hill, and it became the capital of the Fararbo family. In 9015, Altacollis is home to about 1.5 million people.
