    <span style="text-decoration:underline"><strong>Brief History:</strong>


    The Sar Empire is as ancient as the Geth Empire, both having been established around the same time following the growing danger that the Ishillian Empire meant north of them. At first, their conquest was faraway news, but as they pushed south, the local kingdoms and duchies felt the pressure, falling one by one, birthing the modern empires we see today. The Sar Empire''s history is marked by its reverence for honor, intricate architectural achievements, and a series of dynastic rulers.


    The Sar Empire''s society is deeply rooted in honor and tradition, guided by the principles of Valen. The teachings of honor, forthrightness, and honesty are the cornerstones of their belief systems. The Sar Empire remains a formidable and proud civilization, deeplymitted to preserving its legacy and values in aplex and ever-changing world. Because of this strong conviction, it has a strained rtionship with its eastern neighbor, the Kingdom of Roblesia.


    The rtionship between the Sar Empire and the Geth Empire is one of rivalry and asional alliance. Their histories are intertwined, with periods of conflict interspersed with times of cooperation and even familial ties through marriage. They avoided mutual destruction many times and came to each other''s help when facing Ishillia.
