History:
The empire's history begins in the turbulent region later known as the Vosta. There the established city states in the mountain jockeyed for hegemony. The city state of Eryx was able to establish a long standing hegemony over the region. However over time their rule became more tyrannical leading to the assasstion of the hegemon and breaking of Eryx hold over Vosta. The city states fell back into petty squabbling. Soon the city state of Atrans under the tyrant Bolculinis began to establish a new hegemony. However they were opposed by an unexpected foe. Standing against them was what many consider a minor city state, Volsinii led by a newly crowned king Virmar. The young king expanded his control over the region. Soon Virmar and Bolculinis face each other in the climactic battle of Red valley. The battle ended with Vimar's personality slaying Bolculinis during the battle, declaring the birth of the Volsinii empire. Emperor Virmar ruled his young empire for thirty more years. When he was old and sick he gave his son his final request before he threw himself on his own funeral pyre. The act is said to have burned away his mortal form allowing him to ascend to godhood according to Volsinii sources. The empire continue to grow under Virmar successors.
