Holy Empire Westelande

The Holy Empire Westelande is a large empire in Japan's Elder Tale and one of the Five Territories. Much of the area is controlled by Nureha, the guild master of Plant Hwyaden; Nureha managed to influence most of the nobles in the area into aiding her cause.

Overview
The Holy Empire Westelande is considered as the main rival territory to the League of Freedom Cities Eastal. Unlike the League, which recognizes the Cowen Clan as its link to the original royal lineage of the Imperial Dynasty, Westelande has the Itsuki Clan. Consequently, there is much conflict over who is the rightful rulers as both sides contain royal blood in their clans. In effect, Yamato is split down the middle between them. Minami is the Player city in this area and houses the guild Plant Hwyaden. Unlike Akihabara and its Round Table Alliance, Plant Hwyaden has absorbed all other guilds and rulers as a singular entity. As a result, everyone, even the nobility of the Holy Empire Westelande must bow down to to this singular guild.

Politically, the Holy Empire Westelande holds more power than the League of Freedom Cities Eastal, though in terms of economy, they are inferior, due to the discoveries made in Akihabara and the treaty the League had made with the Adventurers. This gave the League a far better bargaining position and a chance to advance themselves further. Because of this inequality, the nobles of Westelande attempted to disrupt the Round Table's Alliance's authority during the Libra Festival by causing numerous and random acts of confusion all over the city. The goal was to overwhelm the security and administration departments, thereby weakening the relationship between Akihabara and the League. The most noticiable act was Lord Marves suddenly bringing in 500 tons of cargo to be stored at Akihabara's warehouses, thinking that they were already stretched to their limits with all the other merchants at the festival. This act was aimed to discredit the Cowen Family and embarass Princess Rayneshia.

However, this attempt would ultimately fail as Shiroe successfully countered these random acts of confusion with equally spontaneous measures, such as using the female members of the West Wind Brigade to smooth over tensions. Furthermore, Marves had greatly underestimated the storage capacity of the warehouses owned by the Oceanic Systems, which could easily store shipments several times the size he had brought. In the end, Marves found himself outmaneuvered and had to withdraw with an injured pride.
