Unification talks begin
The League of Syradine and the Kingdom of Istraks, had a long history between one another. The two nations keeping one another in check. As time went on, the Syradine and Íster people found that there were not so different from one another. When Acolytius of Istraks joined Syradine as a dual citizens, proper talks of unification began.
These talks started on the 15th of December 2023. The ultimate goal was to fully form a new, single identity for Ritannia. That is why the governments chose for a competely new nation and form of government, and not a simple unification. There were concerns during the talks that Syradine politics would overpower that of Istraks. The majority of Ritannia would be from Syradine, and some were concerned that the people of Istraks would be forgotten. Though even with this concern, the talks continued with a focus on cooperation between the two nation states.
Other pronames for Ritannia during the unification talks were: Eidolon, Tulapia, Celestria, Santambria, Netalon and the Cinnamon Isles. The people eventually voted for the Republic of Ritannia.

Another problem arose, in the form of the King of Istraks, Munke. The League of Syradine their members were staunch anti-monarchists, and would not want a King to have status and power in this new proposed union. Luckily for them, there was a revolution in Istraks that overthrew the monarchy and usurped most of the King's political power. The King agreed that he would have no position of power in Ritannia, instead opting for a symbolic position because of the history behind their royal house, as was the case in Istraks.
The Syradinesian Asheyla of Selûne proposed not even having the Istraki monarchy be mentioned in the Ritannian constitution, as she was of the opinion that it was one of many things that would hold Ritannia back from forming a new cultural identity, seperate from Syradine and Istraks. This gained support in the unification talks, and agreed upon by Syradine and Istraks.
Government
To fully achieve the goal of forming a new identity, Syradine and Istraks wanted to create a new style of government, and not simply decide to adopt an existing one. Syradine followed a long tradition of democracy, and wanted to continue this in Ritannia. Acolytius, the driving force in Istraks behind the unification, agreed with this, and managed to convince the King of Istraks. It was decided that the people of Ritannia would vote for their leader, the Grand Vizier, and for the respective ministries in Ritannia.
The Republic of Ritannia was approved and created on the 5th of January in 2024, and after the first election the government was as follows:
- Grand Vizier Friedrich Acolytius of Selûne
- Minister of Trade & Finance Khanstantin Linetti of Tintorini
- Minister of Justice Simon Linetti
- Minister of Defence Kryia of Selûne
- Minister of Foreign Affairs Asheyla of Selûne
- Advisor Pepper of Selûne and Fusion

These two states, the oldest continuously surviving in the North, have stood as bastions of freedom and opposition to government overreaches.
