House Vauclain
"Gold in peace, steel in war."
Culture: Alt-Anglian/Ithanian
Religion: Unionism
Family Trade: Wine + Horse breeding
Values: Family, Tolerance, Integrity
Trade
Wine: Being the main source of income and turning primary trade of the Vauclain, this was the cause of the larger migration to Ithania. After having seen potential in owning vineyards and wineries they traveled to Ithania in order to scope out the land and culture. At first, the culture was not for them but after having gone through with the move it eventually stuck. They hold land in Ithania which houses their vast vineyards and there they have created many wines and grown their name for being known as wine makers.Horse Breeding: They breed horses. I'll make this pretty later. They also make glue, shhh
History
The family can be traced back many generations but there is nothing of note until Eadmund I took a business trip to Ithania which caused major changes to this once so militaristic and fairly basic family. Eadmund left Anglia to explore the world in hopes of furthering the family's name but had never thought he'd be making such a large impact at the time. Once arriving in Ithania he quickly grew to like the fashion and overall feel of it all, which was expected from one who lived so plainly. He soon met Aloisia Farenne and after growing fond of her and finding that her family owned a wine business, he quickly decided to marry her, her business, and her lifestyle.
From thence forth the family always had an Ithanian flair and often fluctuated between the two cultures, tradition warring with fashion and decadence. This lead to the family often traveling between Ithania to handle the business and back again to Anglia to handle the military side. It wasn't long, around about 180 AC, before Eadmund finally decided to drop the military pretense and Vogerenaard name completely - so committed he was to his love and their life. The family rose in power from there and oddly enough continued to travel between the two states. Once Eadmund had passed - the family grew complacent and happy in their vineyards before being reinvigorated by Eadmund II, the grandson of Eadmund I. After visiting Regalia for a time, he gained various titles to Loiree and pushed for the family to live on their new lands. There were hardly any more trips to Ithania or Anglia and finally, the family seemed to be at rest and at peace, no longer torn between two homelands.
Within recent years the family has taken to the city lifestyle and excitement of Regalia. They have ventured into politics and further grown their businesses and connections. The family faltered in this new arena for a time before Marianne Vauclain, handed the matriarchy of the family by her father Eadmund II, married Leonzio Vanetti after the Lo Occupation of 304 AC. He managed to quickly help ascend the family to greater power while also focusing on the Anglian side, harkening back to their roots, and bringing the Vauclains full circle once more.
