History
Arcadia settled the “Golden Island” of Concord in earnest in the early 3rd Age, although the island had been inhabited and had a naval base as early as the dawn of the 2nd Age. Settlers struck gold in its central mountain range, and the island filled up overnight. By the 4th Age things had settled down and a natural rhythm had emerged on the newest of Arcadia’s Provinces. Miners dug for gold and other minerals, farmers produced citrus fruits and sugar in abundance, and the naval outposts of Eastport and Westport became sprawling metropolises. Teramar, built in the central mountains as the capital, flourished and grew into a cosmopolitan center of learning. The only natives of the island, a giant species of highly intelligent Eagles, continued life in their mountain roosts and cities but worked alongside the natives carrying messages and even impressively heavy loads of fruits and sugarcane.
In 60 FA however, General Percival Hottuffe, a Concordian native and hardened veteran of the Arcadian wars in Andor, Felix, and in the Sea of Swords, was named proconsul. He was tired of the constant wars and sick of leading Concordian men into battle far from home. His impassioned oratories across the island inflamed the populace but went under the radar of a very preoccupied Arcadian Emperor. In 63 FA however, he made a statement which could not be ignored. He ordered the men of the two Concordian legions on the island to throw down their banners and take up the new banner of Concord, a blue cross on a white field. He then stormed the Arcadian naval base at Westport and took the majority of the Arcadian eastern fleet at anchor.
The Arcadian legions hit the beaches in the spring of the next year but it took them almost two years to push Hottuffe and his army, swollen by freedom fighters from across Dominaria, off of the island. Hottuffe, his remaining men, and most of the populace (Eagles included) of Concord escaped across the Sea of Storms on their stolen ships to the long lawless and mostly uninhabited islands to the south of the Caliphate. Concord is now about 5 years removed from military occupation and rebuilding and a new wave of settlers and guilds looking to exploit the empty island have brought new life and a spirit of commerce back to the island Eastport, Westport, and Teramar are once again growing. The Eagle population that remains is flourishing and expanding slowly, and have even taken up roosts in a few buildings abandoned during Hotuffe’s retreat from Teramar.
Country
Government: Concord is currently purely a province with a Consul-General ruling from Teramar. The Admiral of the Eastern Fleet is the Consul of Eastport.
Military: Concord's Legions have traditionally worn gold and shown the insignia of Arcadia, two currently exist from troops given from Arcadian numbered legions. One demi-Legion of Arcadian Marines and one Andoran Legion still garrison the island.
Judicial: A military tribunal in Teramar under the auspices of the Consul-General is in charge of maintaining order on the island. The tribunal also controls the two maniples that guard XXX, the Arcaidan prison on the island.
