The Order of Mount Sol, or officially, Ordo Equestris Sacrorum Montis Solis Locorum meaning Knightly Order of the Holy Territories of Mount Sol is an independent order of knights based around the holy site of Mount Sol. It's capital is Castello Solaire, a great fort built into the side of a mountain, though its economic centre and largest town is Cittello.
The full title of the leader of the nation is: Sovereign Grand Master Vincenzo di Formaggio of the Order of Mount Sol, Defender of the Faith, and Protector of the One True Omnican Church.
History
After the collapse of the Empire and the Heliarchy, many disenfranchised Omnicans disenfranchised themselves with the new states. The most pious of which, and presumably the most wealthy, fled from the cities to the mountains, hiring mercenaries to silence the previous occupants and took the land for themselves. Eventually, they formed a Holy Order in the valleys surrounding Mount Sol.
Culture
The culture of the order and the peasants in the land is similar to that of Archadia and Leopoli. The only tolerated religion is the Order's branch of Omnicanism.
