Alliance in Exile

The Alliance in Exile, also known as the Alliance Remnant, but more often simply referred to as the Alliance is a loose federation of several countries that either did not secede from the Old Alliance or weren't ravaged by the Nightwalkers in their ruthless apocalyptic charge across Caenterin. It is the successor state of the Alliance of Caenterin, or, at least, what was left of it.

History
The remnant was established in 2020 F.A. following the invasion of the Nightwalkers, and their push into Ithil. Once Kingsgate was destroyed and both the Lyght of the West and emperor of the Alliance were killed, what was left of the government relocated to the city of Dam and reestablished the government there. However, in the wake of the crisis, the Nightwalkers, as well as infighting between certain factions, led to the ruin of many other countries. Besides that, following the fall of the Alliance, several kingdoms that were once members of the Alliance seceded, beginning with Espis and followed by Porgez,Boraelgrasp, Albion, and Ostria. These countries, save for Albion, which became isolationist, formed a confederation of their own known as the Caenterian Powers, which quickly became at odds with the Alliance in Exile. While no war was officially declared, tensions ran deep, and they still do to this very day.

Once the alliance relocated to Dam where it was reorganized, the government setting up its headquarters at the queen's personal palace. The Queen of Nethermarsh herself moved her residence to the city's older residence. The position of Lyght was never reestablished by the Alliance, all power being legislated to the emperor. The current emperor is Plumarch, once an advisor to the Lyght, who was selected by the remaining political figures who escaped the destruction of Kingsgate as to ensure solid leadership.
