Maddin Todande was the first king of Altara.

History[]

In c. FY 1112, Lord Maddin Todande founded the nation of Altara. He claimed descent from the last queen of Shiota, the nation that had ruled in the same location prior to the formation of Artur Hawkwing's Empire, and this claim is considered somewhat credible. Numerous attempts to reestablish Shiota had been undertaken during the end of the War of the Hundred Years, with one lasting for fifty years under three rulers. Maddin saw that the old nations were finished and made a claim to a new nation; his success was aided by the war ending only five years later.
