Aquilonia (AQUI) - Provinces #1 through #10 - Player Kingdom

AQUILONIA (Large Kingdom) -- Symbol of might in the Hyborian Age, Aquilonia with her legendary armies of Bossonian archers, Gunderland pikemen and Poitanian knights, wields indisputably the supreme military power of the Western world. More than any other Kingdom, however, Aquilonia lies surrounded by grim and unrelenting enemies. A long series of defensive wars for survival must inevitably be fought (and won) ere Aquilonia may seek empire beyond her borders.

NATIONAL HISTORY

Know, my Lord, that the kingdom of Aquilonia was founded upon the ruins of the ancient and evil empire of Acheron, an empire which thy sires laid waste to some three thousand years ago. The Aquilonians have descended from the original Hybori tribes which drifted southward following the time of the Great Cataclysm, when the very foundations of the world were rocked and the oceans drank the civilizations of Atlantis and Lemuria. Thy people are a mixture of this ancient Hybori blood and of the nameless, scattered tribes which the Hybori conquered in the course of their wanderings. From those early days of settlement, the Hyborian kingdom of Aquilonia has risen to become known as "supreme in the Western world," wielding at once immense military and economic power.

The Aquilonian people are a warrior race, proud, cultured, noble in spirit, whose strength was forged through millennia of conquest. To the throne of Tarantia, on the road of Kings, thou art now called to rule, and rule wisely. Heed well my words, Great One, as I report to thee now of the length and breadth of thy new kingdom.

I am GrimFinger, also known as Charles, in some quarters.
