Peremorovkan Hetmanate

Peremorovka, also occasionally referred to as Peremorivka, officially the Hetmanate of Peremorovka (: Гетьманщина Переморівка), was a sovereign state which existed from 1236-1692 CE in Eastern Artemia, in what is now the Pivnichna and Pivdenna Peremorovka oblasts of Yarova (as well as small parts of Srednikovo, Smirnova, and Yadryshkina). The Hetmanate was first established in 1236 CE by Hetman Arkady Skoropadsky I and was the only significant distinctively-Peremorovkan polity to exist after the fall of the confederation of Ljudia. In its history, the respective royal family houses of Skoropadsky (1236-1447 CE) and Rostyslavovych (1447-1692 CE) reigned over the Hetmanate.

The Peremorovkan language was used as the official language of the Hetmanate's administration and the Peremorovkan Ruble was the formal currency. The culture of the Peremorovkars is said to have flourished through the course of the Hetmanate's existence and a multitude of historians note the sheer volume of indigenous literature created during this era, with the state celebrated for its high literacy levels - much higher than that of the Kingdom of Kryzhelovschina and the Tsardom of Yarova. Authority of the Hetman and his government centred around the capital city of Abramivka, and jurisdiction elsewhere within its territory depended on peace pacts with other, or “free men”, who lived in semi-militaristic communities. The Cossacks were a people who played an instrumental role in the Hetmanate's period of expansionism in the sixteenth century with the conquest of the Nurmes Union in 1578 CE (most of modern-day Kironia and small parts of Gardarike).

Owing to the patriarchal nature of its societal structure, following the demise of Hetman Yevhen Rostyslavovych II in the winter of 1691 CE, the Hetmanate was thrown into a two-month constitutional crisis - as no obvious male heir survived the late Hetman. The Hetman's daughter Svitlana, who was widowed by her first cousin, Yevhen's nephew Kostyantyn Rostyslavovych, was not regarded as a conceivable inheritor of the title. Attempts were made by a handful of Cossack communities to elect or indeed impose a new Hetman, however, the crisis was mollified in the springing of 1692 CE when Yarovan Tsar Yaroslav VI, from the allied House of Vojiskiy, asked for Svitlana's hand in marriage. The marital union between the Tsar and the last Hetman's only living descendant paved the way for the Hetmanate of Peremorovka to enter a personal union with the Yarovan Empire (Vojiskiy Empire). The personal union of the Peremorovkan Hetmanate and the Yarovan Empire was one of the few territorial acquisitions in the empire's history which did not include any major conflict.

Kironian revolt
1597-1598, large scale peasant revolts and mutinies, reasons being: tax resistance, national liberation, religious war (the Trinitarian and Orthodox Kironians opposing the Svogda Patriarchate).

Raumo Uprising
On June 14 1631 CE, the native occupants of the city of Raumo emerged in a planned uprising against the Peremorovkan governors, the signal to begin being the conflagration of a Peremorovkan warship anchored in the port. Elements of organised soldiers began to revolt, and were soon joined by common citizens. Rasmus of Nystad, became the official leader of the rebellion and issued a proclamation to the rebels to "kill all Peremorovkars, and their wives and children and servants, anyone of Peremorovkan blood, any Cossack found is to be drowned in the sea, and the Peremorovkan priests are to be captured and hanged from the rafters of Jaana's Church". The bloody campaign began and it is believed that over the next three days, more than 400 Peremorovkars were killed, 83 of the 120 Cossacks billeted in the city were captured and drowned, with the remainder being killed in the fighting or escaping, and the 8 priests assigned to Raumo were dragged naked into the Stave Church of Queen Jaana, and hanged from the rafters till dead, and their forty or more attendants were killed in the chapels by angry mobs.

Rasmus was crowned the king of the renewed Christian Kingdom of Raumo, and began a campaign to violently remove all traces of Peremorovkan rule from his claimed lands. An army was dispatched to crush the rebellion, but it suffered greatly at the hands of the forces of Raumo, the hostile, winter elements and large amounts of sabotage and non-compliance from the Kironian vassals. In 1634, a force of Cossacks defeated the peasant army of Raumo in the field, and marched on Raumo itself, placing the city under siege with the assistance of the Peremorovkan navy. The city lasted five months under the siege, until some Cossack soldiers managed to climb the city walls in the night and take control of a gatehouse, enabling the entry of the whole army.

Several months later, the then-Hetman of Peremorovka Ivan Rostyslavovych IV visited the Kironian territories. Staying in Nurmes, he discussed with his vice-roy the prospect of burning down the Stave Church of Queen Jaana. However, the Hetman elected not to at the urgings of the Kironian advisors, as it was believed that the entire country might rise up if such was acted out - to desecrate the church of the mother of St. Elmo would likely enrage the already-aggravated Kironian populace.
