Chapter 229 Six Gods Divide the Cake
On the map of the Northern Continent, besides the island of Sonia being given to the White Emperor, the Black Emperor also gave away an important core city on the eastern side of the Northern Continent, Backlund, without any discussion.
This division implies that it was directly under the White Emperor's control, essentially making it the White Emperor's own private fiefdom.
Looking at the location of Backlund on the map, Xia Er suddenly wondered if, in the future, when he joked with the members of the Tarot Club, he could say that Backlund was once their family's hereditary "free city".
This land has been their family's territory since ancient times.
"The Black Emperor's generosity is truly remarkable."
The "White Emperor" smiled. Why wouldn't he take a core city that's being given away for free?
Although his base of operations was on the western side of the continent, its main area being what would later become the Republic of Intis, the Black Emperor gifted him a core city on the eastern side of the continent.
This must be so that he can also take care of Sonia Island. The Black Emperor is so considerate.
"Black Emperor" Solomon watched "White Emperor's" nonchalant reaction, then tapped his fingers lightly on the table, revealing a plain beneath the central plateau in the southern part of the northern continent on the map.
"I agree to designate the Church of Mother Earth as the state religion of the Solomon Empire."
"This plain is a gift I give to the Church of Mother Earth."
The Black Emperor spoke calmly, as if to express his gratitude for the support of the Earth Mother Goddess, or to highlight the status of the Earth Mother Goddess Church, he directly gifted the Earth Mother Goddess Church a plain in the Northern Continent most suitable for growing crops.
Beneath the two thrones, Pope Roland of the Church of Mother Earth bowed to the Black Emperor and accepted the gift.
With a smile on his lips, Xia'er watched as the Black Emperor separated the Church of the Earth Mother from his own territory and subtly arranged the Church's "headquarters" in the southern part of the Northern Continent, which would become the main part of the future Kingdom of Feneport.
Although it's not mandatory, the plains in the southern part of the Northern Continent have a suitable climate and fertile land. Moreover, such a large area is being given directly to the Church of the Earth Mother. The Church of the Earth Mother will inevitably establish a core diocese there, which is in line with the long-term development needs of the Church of the Earth Mother.
After arranging the Church of the Earth Mother, the Black Emperor pointed to the location of the later Fussac Empire.
The Fusak Empire was located on the northeastern side of the northern continent, and most of its western area had already been gradually devoured by the "White Emperor."
However, the massive Andals Mountains, which run through these areas, combined with the extremely cold northern climate, make them very unsuitable for ordinary human life.
The land on the eastern side of the Fussac Empire, closer to the Intersea, is considered the heart of the Fussac Empire.
Because of its proximity to Jianhai, and the intense fighting in the vicinity of Jianhai, the White Emperor was unable to capture it at that time.
The Black Emperor has now assigned this part of the territory to the Church of the God of War, and the giants already have a certain foundation here.
The Black Emperor then allocated the area south of the Amanda Mountains, including the western side of the Intersea, the former Wintershire, East Chestershire, and other areas, to the Church of the Night.
This division is quite interesting. The land given to the Church of the God of War is located in the northwest of the Intersea, while the land given to the Church of the Night is located in the northeast of the Intersea.
The Church of War and the Church of Night, two churches with conflicts and friction, face each other across the Interstellar Sea. The capital of the Solomon Empire is located south of the Interstellar Sea, right in the middle of the two.
Moreover, both churches are located in areas that are relatively good, but are actually very cold.
The Pope of the Church of War and the Pope of the Church of Night, Marian, exchanged a glance. Neither of them expressed any opinion, and there was absolutely no formal greeting. They simply nodded out of respect for the Black Emperor's status as a true god.
The Black Emperor didn't care about the two popes' somewhat perfunctory and dissatisfied attitude. He looked at the White Emperor sitting opposite him and asked for his thoughts.
Although the God of War and the Goddess of Night are true gods, the current Northern Continent is a unified entity formed by the Solomon Empire in conjunction with the former Kingdom of Constant.
The Solomon Empire's dominance was established by treading on the shoulders of the three true gods: Wind, Wisdom, and White. The attitudes of the Church of War and the Church of Night should be considered, but not overemphasized.
Although the Earth Mother Goddess did not participate in the divine war, she sided with the former Kingdom of Constantine.
Neither the Church of War nor the Church of Night had a true god participating in the divine war, nor did either church directly take sides. Therefore, when it came to dividing the spoils of victory, they could only stand aside.
"Emperor Bai" nodded slightly, acknowledging Emperor Hei's arrangement.
From then on, all six gods of the Northern Continent were relegated to the "remote areas" of the Northern Continent.
We will not discuss the churches of Feng, Zhi, and Bai that were gradually abandoned for the time being.
The Church of the Night, the Church of the God of War, and the Church of the Earth Mother Goddess have also "moved away" from the core of the Northern Continent.
The land acquired by the Church of the Earth Mother Goddess, though vast in area, with a suitable climate and fertile soil, was located in the south of the northern continent.
The territory of the Church of the Night is bordered by the Amanda Mountains to the north, the Intersea Sea to the west, and the island of Sonia to the east.
The territory of the Church of the God of War is bordered by the Andal Mountains to the west, the Hornach Mountains to the south, and the Intersea to the southwest.
The Black Emperor was very considerate; in an area that wasn't generally good, he selected two decent plots of land and allocated them to two non-partisan churches of the True God.
With this division, the best land in the entire Northern Continent is probably divided into two areas.
To the west lies the territory of the Republic of Intis, and to the east lies the territory of the Kingdom of Rune. These two areas are separated by the Central Mountain Range and the Hornach Mountains.
To the west lies the traditional sphere of influence of the White Emperor.
The eastern side is the area where the Black Emperor has a deeper control.
The Fallen God does not need additional territory; the Black Emperor's actual territory is naturally the main area where the Fallen God's faith spreads.
These two were bound together from the very beginning of the nation's founding, and they remained bound together even when expelling other churches; they were simply impossible to separate.
If at this time, the hermit returns from the spirit world.
So the layout of the Northern Continent is as follows: the Hermit lives in the west, the Fallen God lives in the east, the Earth Mother Goddess lives in the south, the God of War and the Goddess of Night live in the northwest and northeast respectively, and the Black Emperor lives in the Interstellar Sea, in the center.
The six deities are mutually restraining.
Night and War God are being held back quite a bit.
However, the other gods were also restrained in a more moderate way.
When the White Emperor wanted to reclaim the island of Sonia, the Black Emperor took the opportunity to place the Goddess of Night on the west side of the island, thus geographically surrounding the Goddess of Night's earthly kingdom.
The White Emperor's power base was in the west, so the Black Emperor gifted him an important eastern hub city, allowing him to devote some of his energy to the east of the empire, rather than becoming a local tyrant in the west who only obeyed orders and not proclamations. At the same time, this gave the White Emperor a prelude to his future intervention in the west.
