Varding Coasts

The Varding Coasts (Theddite: Vardiaminge) are a region of the Kingdom of Carbatan located on the southern coast of the Great Gulf. The capital and largest city is Varding.

History
The Varding Coasts were originally colonized by the First Theddite Empire in the 14600s. The region gained independence after the collapse of the Empire and the subsequent destruction of the Kingdom of Lobanc in 16023 as the Duchy of Varding. The minor duchy was conquered by the nearby city-state of Pinarea in 16130. The region remained a part of Pinarea until the 17990 Pinarean Uprising, a peasant revolt against the Pinarean royal family's high taxes. While the rebels besieged Pinarea City, armies from several nearby kingdoms seized the unprotected Pinarean lands. The Carbatanian army landed in Varding, at the time the second largest city of the Pinarean kingdom, and from there conquered nearly half of the Pinarean mainland. The area was integrated into the Carbatanian empire as the Varding Coast, and remained one of the richest areas of the southern Gulf coast.
