Line 10:
House Crawford would later secede from the Kingdom system and spark the Crawford Rebellion, challenging the royal army. High King Vulnus called upon the Graal Military Community, and mustered potentially the largest army in the history of the community. The two sides clashed in combat for less than an hour, until the leader of House Crawford was forced to swear fealty to the High King before the eyes of the Kingdom.
 
In due time, Auel Vulnus stepped down and abdicated the throne to Auel Vist. This action did not stit well with the houses and caused unrest, which would lead to the demise of the Kingdom. [[File:Ss2016-08-01at03-34-56.jpg|250px|thumb]]

One can only become a Knight after training under a Knight as a Squire, then being Knighted by the Lord of their Hold in a formal ceremony. This ceremony signifies the transition of being a warrior within a Banner to a respected Officer within a Hold.

=Structure=
 
The Kingdom is an immensely large guild structure, so large in fact, that the rest of Graal has never seen anything quite like it. The Kingdom is ruled over by the King and the royal family, who rule the Kingdom from their guild, The Royal Family .
 
The royal family has direct control over two other guilds which are allied to it. These guilds are the royal guards divisions. The royal family also has some dominion over other great houses. These great houses in turn have dominion over regions of Graal known as holds. These great houses have control over minor houses, which make up most of the great houses’ armies. Each great house can have three minor houses to rule over. The major houses also have a guild of knights at their disposal to protect their holds.
 
Minor Houses are filled with two types of people, house members and bannermen. House members are official members of the family, which are allowed to have a small fief of land to control within their Lord’s domain. Bannermen are those that serve as the guards and soldiers for the house. They can be anything from Knights to new recruits. What makes a bannerman a bannerman is that they serve under their Liege-Lord and their Liege-Lord’s family.
 
Knights serve under the direct authority of their Lord. They are among most highly skilled and respected members of their hold. They train constantly so they can go out and protect the realm and their respective hold.
