2627 to 2634, Despising the internecine conflicts and extravagance of House Bijäl, a conspiracy of Senators abolishes the Grand-Duchy of Aurice and establishes an aristocratic republic, inspired in part by the independence of Bryndyd and Amerzcelindo. Chiefest among them was Amasgus Galdimese and Yaven Calchamas. The nobles were inspired in part by the Republic of Johaulia. The revolution is dated from 2627, the year when the Noble Senate abolishes the Grandy-Duchy and establishes the Noble Republic to the year 2634 with the Battle of Kadraskan and the continuity of the office of Lord Governor-General, elected by the Noble Senate[1].
