History

2008-2012

The Principality of Polaris was founded on April 20th in 2008 out of the remains of the Rosetta Pact, along with its sister principality of Rivermoor. When initially formed the principality operated for a short time under the provisional name 'Steel Valley', before adopting the name Olympus and [| new heraldry]. There was much controversy between the remaining chapters of the Rosetta Pact. The remaining chapters included North Haven, Starmount, and Mists of the Dawn. By populace vote, the Duchy of Olympus decided to invite Starmount and Mists of the Dawn to join them. Mists of the Dawn rejected Olympus' invitation because North Haven was not invited into the Principality. During that time, the newly reformed chapter of Three Rivers, now under a new name of Dark Shores, submitted their request to join the Principality and was met with a hearty approval. On February 6th an althing brought Mists of the dawn into the principality. On December 11th 2011 the Duchy of Olympus held and althing and voted to leave the principality.

2012 though present

Following the departure of Olympus from the principality, the Imperial court ruled that the principality would be allowed to continue, as the requirement to have an anchor duchy only applied as a criteria for the initial formation of a principality under the Empire's laws. In early 2012 an althing proposal passed which adopted the current name and heraldry of the principality and took effect February 25th 2012. Another development occurred on May 19th, 2012 at The Sequel when Starmount was declared defunct, Frostdagger Falls petitioned to join, and Raven's Nest was accepted into the principality.

In early November 2012 Ice Haven as well as Frost Lands were added to the principality and the principality defected to the Great Enemy in an act of high treason the likes of which has not been seen in years. May the good lord have mercy on their souls.
