Founded on June 23rd 2017, '''The Kingdom of Verda''' is a monarchy in the +,- quadrant, founded after the union of the [[Greenmarsh]] and [[Pinnacle]]. It currently consists of four populated regions, [[Pinnacle|The Pinnacle]], [[Elwen]], Stormmire and [[Greenmarsh|the Greenmarsh]], home to the capital city of [[Crowsroost|the Crowsroost]] . Comprised mostly of builders and farmers, Verda is quite a peaceful nation. With several varied biomes falling within the territories of Verda, climate ranges from temperate swamps to frigid mountaintops to arid mesa flats.▼

=== Return of the Queen ===
On November 12 2017, Magmus decided to end the regency, returning to Verda. Verda remained mostly inactive, with _Haecceity_ leaving to join [[Columbia]], and most players remaining inactive. Things began to change, however, as 2018 began. Many old players that were once inactive, such as Knight_Jacob and Thalio returned, and Verda began to gain new players again. Magmus began work constructing a new royal castle for herself in Crowsroost, known as [[Castle Ashdun]] after the sacred tree that grows in the castle grounds, and Knight_Jacob and Thalio both began constructing grand gardens throughout Crowsroost. Rails to cities like [[Taozi]] and [[Wayrest]] were also made, connecting Verda with many nations across the world. On April 1st 2018, Verda annexed Firoxus Swamp in the [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/88tntt/the_treaty_of_heinlau_verda_annexes_firoxus_swamp/ Treaty of Heinlau]. In the ruins of the Italian Federation, a player called Blackknife43 returned, founding a new city on the ruins of the old, and named it [[Elwen]]. Knight_Jacob and his former raider friend Queen_Kyle founded a new city on a former northern settlement, the canal city of [[Stormmire]]. On the 23rd of June, 2018, the kingdom celebrated it's first anniversary with an [[Iria|Irian]] delegation. Then some raids happened and Firoxus Swamp was lost.
=== Sovia-Verdan Oligarchy Era ===
On November 16th 2018, having fallen into severe inactivity, with Magmus having moved to [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]], the last few residents of Verda (Pirater and Blackknife43) decided to revive the once great nation, however the new monarch Oyyster was inactive - they decided to become an Oligarchy with three leaders. Sovia built a city relatively close to Heinlau, which was possibly the most active settlement currently in Verdan lands. Many of the current Verdans (including Blackknife) left for CivEx, leaving Pirater as the only active member.
=== The Nyasan-Channer War ===
Pirater and some channers attacked [[Palgrave]], capital of the [[Commonwealth Of Nyasaland|Commonwealth of Nyasaland]], who retaliated with their allies in [[Mir]] and [[UNC|the UNC]] by destroying Sovia and annexing Verda.
After months of negotiations with [[Nyasaland]], Magmus managed to regain most of Verda's old territory. Despite this, Verda continued to fade into inactivity and obscurity.
