“Praise Her Bosom!”

The oldest of Four Great Nations in its entirety: from guarded domain to a form of government, its culture hasn’t changed in thousands of years, symbolizing cold stability and iron traditions, as unyielding as Her gorgeous mountains.

Bosom Region experience unique diverse climate through its territories, most notable are its local winters. Extremely cold-dry around Cleavage River, when sunlight from Shata-Nata gets partially blocked by Meorenell’s Ring and moist winds being trapped in many mountains and valleys surrounding it; in southern part heavy dry snowfalls are in abundance, while lands around Armpit Seas experience wet snow. It is not a surprise local alpine bovines were domesticated and become sacred among primal Bosomians: twice the size of cattle from other regions, in life they provide with wool, milk and warmth, as in death they become meat and pelts.

Tofar tribe were the first kin to permanently settle in Bosom Region, somewhere after First Settlements were drowned. As new generation were born and firstborn dying, people already begun forgetting about Joyful words of Meora, they couldn’t comprehend how world was became to be, but were looking for a scapegoats to vent their anger. Tofar were exiled for bestial savagery and unstable nature bordering with Enviosity, but also being blamed for Crumbling and other disasters. Yet, they didn’t care, just left, swearing to return one day. Although a handful outcast members of other tribes followed, they were in aversion of Tofar as much, and settled afar from them. 

When first Envasions begun from Frosted Archipelago, Hellish Spawn would miss Bosomian camps, many of which were located in mountain meadows still crumbling, and push straight to Sea of Birth. So neither would knew about existence of each other for a prolong time. Those few Horrors to get lost in mountains were mere an annoyance for hunters, not smart nor fast enough to escape and warn Umbral Swarms about other children of Meora. However, worse part of this period is that people of Waist Regions thought of Hellish Spawn as of Tofar who fully degraded during their seclusion on south. Not fully wrong though, as already some villages were turning away from Her Light, and worshiping whispers of the Serpent.

Local population kept growing, Crumblings were calming, temporary camps become settlements, and then settlements grew into cities. Routs between neighbors were established, activity and civilization spreading inside Cleavage valley, and so did Envasions, growing with malice and threat, finally recognized a new prey, but not realizing who is really going to be hunted.

It is around that time a strong fellowship bond was forged between two tribes as they never abhor nor detest each other – Mawls came to Tofar, reaching their hands in friendship. Since first day Mawls were the ones who never showed hostility, they were able to look past feral habits of Tofar, giving them hope as a sistern tribe... a hope to be admired by other children of Meora.

Because southern society was cut off from the rest of Meority for a prolonged time, they were unable to gain as much progress and develop, even something as simple as Agriculture was lacking at basic level. So it was Mawls who to brought sciences, inventions and knowledges from outside, as an intermediary, and for that kindness Tofar begun subduing inner beast – to not let hard work of sistren tribe be left in vain.

Then, after Crumblings were no more, around thirty century UAA, it was the Tofar who proposed the establishment of the Kingdom of Bosom with their one-eyed sistren, as a mocking opposition to Kingdoms of Tum that rejected their tribe. Only before that, first of all for themselves, to prove own strength against the Envy and absolute loyalty to Allmother – Tofar went on a campaign to cleanse Cleavage meadows from Envious gangs. In that process they annexed villages of other smaller tribes, took them under own protection. With that done, first envoys of the Kingdom of Bosom reached Sea of Birth, and thus Tofar fulfilled their ancient promise – they returned.

Millennium have passed, mutual despise was forgotten and newly founded nation grandly proceeded. 

Bosomians accepted role of the Shield and Mace against increasing Envasions through southern continent, and first Knights of Creation were forged in battles.

Trade with other nations was set in great demand around nineteen century UAA, when Kingdom of Bosom became provider of unique goods – and it was very prosperous turn indeed. Metallurgy quickly advanced in need to supply Bosom Knights with superior equipment against Serpents’s Swarms; producing not just exemplary arms and sexiest armor, Bosomian smiths were the first known to work with steel, wrought iron and many other alloys. This success was attributed to broad abundance of iron deposits in the region, allowing local smith for careless experimentation and error trials in pursued of perfecting own craft. It is no wonder so much full plate armor was in use by Bosomian soldiers. 

Purified remains of slain Jealous Beastiary of all sizes were sold north as curiosities to people who, of course, would never see them. Desire for these baned trophies was fallen off after Pestilential Envasion shrouded northern continent, yet this new fear was bolstering Waist Nations to support and investment into a southern Kingdom which stands as a perpetual wall against vile creatures.

Silver and gold mines were opened around Her Mountains with a swift development in art of jewelry and tableware, but especially profiting it was for erotic bikini-bijouterie that were in high regard by [REDACTED] nobility. New quarries started to operate around Cleavage Rivers, excavating and delivering unique limestone, natural slates and marble, attracting artistic stonemasons from other nations to work on non-exportable rock – many of these creations never left Kingdom of Bosom, and the most sultry and alluring busts and statues can still be found in museums and parks as gorgeous as the day they were finished. 

By sixteen century UAA many other tribes fully settled around, most of them were Lerrels, Kovari, Griffaurs, Lezor and Runiarns: ranging from insular states to barbaric nation raiding their neighbors. Actions of latest exasperating territorial senses of Tofar inside Kingdom of Bosom, which at the end led to sweeping military campaigns against local states in later sixteen and early fifteen centuries. Innocent smaller cities would surrender under pleads of Mawl ambassadors, or learn to surrender immediately fearing cold wrath of Bosomian armies at the gate. As a result of these campaigns, Kingdom of Bosom absorbed surrounding territory and grew in size and populations almost twice, rebuilding many captured capitals into first Fortress Cities. Historians recognize this time as the beginning of Brestocracy, yet possibly it started a couple centuries earlier even. 

Starting from tenth century relationship between the Kingdom of Bosom and the Hegemony worsened (for known reasons), and in fifth century the Hegemony declared Tofar tribe a “Menace to Meority”. No active conflict between two nations and no open Crusade declarations against Tofar were recorded, though they were unofficially hunted north of Waist Region, chased as far into the Crus. Of course that means all financial and material support previous received to utilize against Envasions was diminished, almost to a halt. It is believed that [REDACTED] intentionally put sanctions, waiting for an Envasion season strong enough to weaken “Kingdom of Disdained” – one of such happened indeed, but too late for Hegemony to act, as the Grievous Strife begun.

Bosomians were not directly participating in a War against the Hegemony, being too busy to fend off nine years of Grim and Fierce Envasions, even loosing a few Fortress Cities to Jealous Swarms. Yet, they were sending excess production of equipment and supplies to Union of Abs until the Hegemony fell, and after its defeat they agreed with other nations to erase all record of [REDACTED] from own history as a gesture of mutual despise. During this period no other nations dared to invade Bosom region... or maybe no records left of fools who did try.

When the Age of Aspects began, honorable Bosomian families of both majority tribes agreed that come the time for change and renewal, to complete unification of this region and solidify order of Brestocracy: the Realms of Bosom was forged as we know it today. A Diarchy was established – two greatest noble families and their scions were elected as hereditary royal dynasties, to rule over lands of iron, gold and ice. Two Capitols were build; Two Crowns were cast; Two of first White Queens were married. 

Bonfure-Terfar family of Tofar were decided to reign over eastern domain of Cleavage River, biggest part of the Realm, and an old capital Saptarga which still stand magnificent today. Tofar, too proud of ancient heritage, prohibit development of new cities and projects for many leagues outside Saptarga walls to keep natural beauty and charm of this province untamed; industrialization and modernization of bound communities, and restorations of capital buildings are minimal and debatable policies, even to receive residency requires decades of waiting for a permission (and to leave – no less) be that a lowborn or a Munele. Bonfure-Terfar family itself is notable for their pale-blue golden fur and twin-tipped keratin spines, which is attested to be a result after centuries of mutual intertribal breeding with a coruler royal family. It was also promulgate that members Bonfure-Terfar are all powerful Engifted and not a single was ever to be Envious (yet outside of the Realms not many believe this claim).

Medali family of Mawls were elected to govern over western domain of Cleavage River – smaller, but more fertile land of the Realms. For the shape of their horns, which are alike to Gorgeous horns of Meora herself, they are specially honored and divinized among not just Mawls, but other tribes as well: for such it is regarded as truth that Medali are most intelligent and quiet of Mawls. New capital Vostarga was built for them on Armpit Bay, and at its center was situated Hall of Cherish – a palace build exclusively to display and protect marble Busts of Bosomian Heroes and Queens, perfectly imitating curves of the originals; you can even acquire limited replicas, and in modern age they come in soft materials as well, mimicking real busts in most perfect details. Medali family are so proud of this historic wonder, they declared it immoral to see treasures of the Hall of Cherish unnaturally: thus any interior depictions, from paintings to photography, are prohibited and illegal.

Meographically two domains of the Realms are encouraged to cooperate – Meora’s Eastern Mountain was developed into a cordillera of mountains during Crumblings, while Her Western Mountain was slid down into more plane hill ranges. Both domains of the Realms contribute and depend on each other, but difference in production is more related to cultural contrast between Tofar and Mawl tribes: for example west is where breeding of massy alpine cattle, mining and military developments are prominent, while harvesting of Bosomian grain, forestry and cultural entertainment is dominating on east. This interaction binds the Realms together more than traditions between Royal dynasties, yet ancient sistrenship between Tofar and Mawls is an even stronger link.

Today the Realms of Bosom are the biggest producer of cheeses, yogurts and cementitious substances, exporter of esteemed unique marbles, noble metals, rare minerals and, especially, iron, thanks to massive Magnetic Anomalies of Her Bosom, with the largest one east of Cleavage Lake. In addition, the Realms are famous for durability of masonry work, but even more famed is their versatile and durable Molokoncrete – for which many ancient structures still stand today unyielding to time and Envasions alike, and continued to be used for construction of every new Fortress City up to this day, and forever will.

Most of all, the Realms of Bosom is our golden shield against Envasions, from the Antarctic Seas to Western Oceans they are iron defenders of Her Gorgeous bust, who embrace Nightmares of Envy with their chests forward, unyielding in cold purpose of being the Tuhr – One Who Sacrifices Oneself.

Releasing it after I finished with Four Great Nations is too long to wait, releasing it at random moment during this topic is weird, thus it shall be seen at the beginning.
