Treva is the wealthiest state on the [[Golden Coast]] and by its own history the least prepared to hold it. It broke from [[Aescalapea]] during the chaos of the [[Fourth Succession War]] and has settled into an uneasy shape ever since: a generation ago, a wealthy merchant family bought its way into the hereditary rank of Principe at [[Modegna]] while the true weight of power runs through the wool halls and counting-houses of the towns bound beneath him. Modegna leads the compact of Trevan towns in name and commerce alike, its finished cloth and lines of credit reaching farther than any Trevan sword could. Northern Trevans watch the militaristic [[Milosia|Milosians]] across the [[Taddo River|Taddo]] with unease, an anxiety made stranger by how heavily Milosia leans on Trevan wool and grain to feed and clothe its own legions. Treva commands a different kind of respect too: [[Monte Ordito]], deep in its western mountains, has been sacred ground since long before the Old Empire existed, and its resident oracle now shares the mountain with the [[Imperial Ecclesia]] Pontifex of Church of [[Paelemona]], an honor no other Aurean state can claim.<noinclude> | |||

Treva is the wealthiest state on the Golden Coast and by its own history the least prepared to hold it. It broke from Aescalapea during the chaos of the Fourth Succession War and has settled into an uneasy shape ever since: a generation ago, a wealthy merchant family bought its way into the hereditary rank of Principe at Modegna while the true weight of power runs through the wool halls and counting-houses of the towns bound beneath him. Modegna leads the compact of Trevan towns in name and commerce alike, its finished cloth and lines of credit reaching farther than any Trevan sword could. Northern Trevans watch the militaristic Milosians across the Taddo with unease, an anxiety made stranger by how heavily Milosia leans on Trevan wool and grain to feed and clothe its own legions. Treva commands a different kind of respect too: Monte Ordito, deep in its western mountains, has been sacred ground since long before the Old Empire existed, and its resident oracle now shares the mountain with the Imperial Ecclesia Pontifex of Church of Paelemona, an honor no other Aurean state can claim.
