The County of [[Mirioth, Amity, and So-Sara]] (or County MASS for short) is a feudal countdom that spans over a large archipelago with five major islands and dozens of smaller islands. Being only a few hundred miles from the equator of Micras, it has a monsoonal, tropical climate, with jungles and mountains in the interior of the islands and beautiful beaches and craggy cliffs on the edges of the islands. Each of the five main islands have a dormant or extinct volcano on it as well, which have not erupted in thousands of years.

With the Yardistani archipelago's history stretching back to antiquity, the modern County of MASS formed only a scant 10 years ago, when the County of Amity and Mirioth annexed the county of So-Sara into its fold. Having been promoted and demoted several times in the feudal structure of Shireroth, it has been a county, a barony, and even briefly a duchy. It is considered a holy land for the Cedrists, and contains the Cedrist Temple north of Nordagaat on Mirioth, as well as the enigmatic and creepy Children of Mors.

Are you ready for a blast from the past? Because [[Kaiser Mors IV]] has just emerged from a few millennia of mortal sleep and dragged his undead hide all the way back to the Mango Throne! It seems he isn't too happy about his original reign being interrupted and would like to complete it, thank you very much. The Shireroth he returns to is a little different from that which he left, though: the [[Imperial Charter]] is a little more restrictive on his office, but he has considerably prettier headings for his decrees thanks to the outgoing Lunatic [[Kaiser Mo'll I]]. It's just as well the undead are making a comeback as the Summer Activity Slump appears to have claimed Rossheim, as well as Ardy. Perhaps they have been claimed by the icy hand of Mors, to adjust for the new Kaiser slipping from his Celestial grasp. The Gods work in mysterious ways...

Propaganda poster by the Elwynnese Workers' Party celebrating the Red Orchid Revolution.

The Communist Revolution in Elwynn, also known as the Red Orchid Revolution, marked a moment of abrupt rupture in Elwynnese History when the office of Prince, which had endured since the days of Elwynnese Independence was overthrown in a palace coup orchestrated by Aasmund Vigeland. As Vigeland was already Steward of Elwynn this represents one of the more notable instances in Elwynnese history of a self-coup in which Vigeland, despite having come to power through legal means, dissolved the Senate and unlawfully assumed extraordinary powers, not granted under normal circumstances. Other measures taken included annulling the nation's constitution and suspending the rule of law.

After disposing of the nominal Prince, Daniel Simrani-Kalirion, Vigeland declared his affiliation to the EWP and took on the title of Chairman of the Presidium of the Standing Committee of the Supreme Council of the Democratic People's Republic of Elwynn. In so doing he became the Forty-Eighth Ruler of Elwynn.

Chairman Vigeland was eventually deposed in a counter-revolution led by the insane Tokaray al-Osman, who declined to revive the Coordinated State and thus left the way clear for a Kalirion restoration under Prince Jonathan Ayreon-Kalirion and his Steward Hallbjörn Haraldsson, the consequences of which are still with us today.
