'''Jorvik''', officially the '''Jarldom of Jorvik''', is a nation located in the +,- continent of [[Geographical Regions (CivMC)|Impendia]]. Jorvik is bordered by [[Bruma]] to the east and an [[SPQR|S.P.Q.R]] exclave to the south. The remainder of the nation's territory is surrounded by the '''Middle Ocean'''.<br>

The Jorvik settlement was established on June 2, 2022. The location was chosen after hours of exploratory scouting by Mickale, Cicero, and Seldomshock. The location was chosen, in part, because it greatly resembled the geological conception that the nation's founders had envisioned prior to launch. Following the construction of bare minimum shelter and the collection of essential resources, the Jorvikson settlers turned their attention to collecting map data. Ulfrich Stormcloak hosted an expedition to document and chart Jorvik's territories on June 3. After he had gathered sufficient data, Cicero submitted Jorvik's territorial claims to the CivMC subreddit; marking Jorvik's ceremonial date of foundation. Several other expeditions occurred in the following days. Stormcloak continued his exploration by discovering and christening '''Shark Island,''' which has a distinct appearance that resembles a shark's anatomy. Mickale ventured even further to the east, constructing a small island settlement known as '''Nordska'''.

===Generic War Era===
==== Retreat to Pavia ====
[[File:Mickale at the Vault.png|thumb|[[Mickale]] dismantles military infrastructure in preparation of Jorivkian force's retreat to Pavia]]After the treason of EZ2Clutch and subsequent sacking of Icenia, Jorvik’s leadership was concerned about a drastic flip in relative power between the [[Elysian Pact]] and [[Rhode Island]]. Resultingly, discussions began in the highest levels of the Jorvikian government. Security Council member and Elder, Mickale suggested that the citizens and military assets of Jorvik be relocated to the [[Pavia|Pavian]] vault. Jorvik and its military infrastructure were geographically isolated from the rest of the Elysian Pact and the Coalition, a problem exemplified during the Rhode Island attack on Jorvik. It was also understood relocating to Pavia would allow for the consolidation of Elysian Pact forces, preventing allied forces from being divided and conquered one-by-one. There were also concerns that Jorvik's assets could fall into enemy hands a tragedy that would have bolstered the coffers and abilities of Rhode Island’s military.
On August 18th, 2022 Jorvik’s leadership agreed that a coordinated withdrawal from Jorvik proper should occur. In the late hours of the day, an operation to transfer vital equipment from Jorvik to the Pavian Vault was undertaken. Jorvikian military assests were either disabled or dismantled in order to prevent their usage by enemy forces. By August 19th, the population of Jorvik along with significant portions of its material wealth had been safely relocated to the Pavian vault. The success of the operation was celebrated, as if enemy forces had been able to intercept the convoy, the entirety of Jorivk's assets would have been captured and critical members of its leadership team would have been pearled. However, celebrations were muted given the fact that Jorvik's homeland and capital city had been left as an open city. The Jorivkian exile in Pavia was one of the nations darkest era’s but would only last a month as it ended with the fall the Rhode Island vault.
=== Volterran Involvement in the [[Four Hour War]] ===
Upon the violation of [[Pavia|Pavian]] sovereignty by [[Arnen]], Volterra immediately voiced support for Pavia. During the resulting meetings within the [[Elysian Pact]] (EP), Volterran leadership stated that Arnen had become dangerously brazen and that an adequate response was necessary to demonstrate the importance of respecting the sovereignty of EP members. It was generally agreed that allowing this violation of Pavian sovereignty to go unanswered would signal weakness on the alliances behalf. The general mood within the alliance was initially relatively lenient, with the general consensus being that an apology and reps being paid would be a sufficient consequence. However, the attitude of Arnen's leadership demonstrating a lack of a desire to negoita. The attitude of Arnen's leadership resulted in a server wide attitude of weariness towards to continued antics of Arnen and its leaders.[[File:2022-12-20 15.13.33.png|thumb|Allied forces traveling to Arnen during the Four Hour War|295x295px]][[File:2022-12-20 14.50.59.png|thumb|Volterran forces at the Pavian vault during the Four Hour War]]
Once global condemnation of Arnen's action was clear, it was generally agreed within the EP that the present political and military context allowed for a more drastic response. Even Arnen's closest allies had signaled to the EP that they would not interfere in any action taken against Arnen, some even lent support to the idea of eliminating Arnen's military capabilities. In the late hours of December 20th EU time, the decision was made that the EP and numerous other states would take military action against Arnen. Volterran forces comprised of [[ItzHoover]] and [[_Highboy_]] massed in Pavia before joining allied forces in the trip towards Arnen. Volterran forces demonstrated bravery and skill during the attack on Arnen's vault. ItzHoover and _Highboy_ were some of the first allied fighters to breach the ground vault and played a role in the pearling of dredd_kiji. Less than 14 hours after Docker claimed that "Pavia won't do shit", the Arnen vault was entirely disabled and Arnen leadership was in Pavian custody. Overall, Voltera played a vital role in the operation and Volterran forces' involvement signified Volterra's continued support to their allies within the Elysian Pact and the nations dedication to peace and good order across the server.

The following regime would find itself thrust into much greater tribulations than the former two governments had experienced. Ulfrich Stormcloak and Bjorn LaBlaze pursued candidacy, both having significant political experience. Victory was narrowly secured by LaBlaze and he was reaffirmed as Jarl on August 12, 2022. The '''Third Jarl's Administration''' would remain much the same with all Huskarls retaining their office. Seemingly symbolic of the growing global friction, renowned warrior and former Jarl-candidate Pride was the only addition to this wartime legislature. Mounting political and military tensions that arose during the earlier administrative eras reached a boiling point early in this cabinet's tenure. The administration is most popularly known for its navigation of Jorvik's entrance into the [[Estalia-Rhode Island War]] after the ''Invasion of Jorvik'' by Rhode Island.
