Nouveaudébut, officially the Kingdom of Nouveaudébut (Ouvreur: Royaume de Nouveaudébut), is an absolute monarchy in Southern Pollux.
Etymology[]
The name "Nouveaudébut" is a portmanteau of the Ouvreur words nouveau and début, which mean "new" and "beginning," respectively. Following the collapse in antiquity of the powerful Ouvreur Empire, citizens of what is now the canton of Coeur du Pays in central Nouveaudébut adopted the moniker to distinguish themselves from the failures of their ancestors.

The Belleau River valley was home to two forms of ancient civilization, agricultural Valley Dwellers and pastoral Highlanders, who vied for power in the region. Though wealthier and more advanced, the Valley Dwellers eventually succumbed militarily to more and more aggressive Highlander raids. In spite of their victory, however, the Highlanders took on much of the culture of their subjugated peoples and had become sedentary themselves by 3,000 BCE.
The Ouvreur Empire emerged with the unification of the various Belleau Valley kingdoms and principalities
