Belisson
Belisson is a large Lush planet, inhabited by Humans. There is only one continent, which is named Centros.
Centros
Centros is controlled by several houses throughout it's history. Up until the formation of the Kingdom of Centros, all houses practically worked as independent kingdoms. Shortly before the formation of the Kingdom of Centros, the houses Baratheon, Lannister, Stark, Tyrell, Arryn, Martell and Tully occupied all territory in Centros.
The Kingdom
Establishment
After approximately fifteen years of relative stability without wars throughout Centros, Robert Baratheon desired to unite the houses under one kingdom, to form a peaceful and prosperous society that wouldn't plunge into a wartime again.
Meetings
House Baratheon controlled a large region, named the Stormlands. In one of its larger cities, Stormhaven, he built a large tower. Once its construction was finished, he invited the lords of the 9 houses (Baratheon, Lannister, Tyrell, Stark, Ormere, Harren, Martell, Arryn and Tully). The representatives of each house arrived, including Robert Baratheon himself as well as Tywin Lannister, Mace Tyrell, Eddard Stark, Elton Ormere, Algar Harren, Doran Martell, Jon Arryn and Hoster Tully. Several meetings were held to discuss the future laws, army, diplomacy, economy and various other issues.
Divide of the Regions
After several meetings, the issue of territory was brought up. The 9 houses had to decide what territories each house would control. The Lannisters requested that House Bolton should become independent from the Starks, though to no avail. The Tyrells said they'd allow the creation of House Jorgensen. In reality, the Jorgensens were still loyal to House Tyrell, but on paper they were allowed independence.
Choosing the king
The independence of the Jorgensens expanded the council to 10 lords. After several meetings, each lord was given a vote to decide which lord they would name king. Most houses voted for the Baratheons and some voted for the Ormeres, both relatively neutral powers.
The vote fell in favour of the Baratheons and officially concluded Robert Baratheon as the King of Centros. Though the Baratheons did not receive all votes, all houses ultimately approved of Robert ruling as king. Both Lannisters and Tyrells, the two largest powers in centros, agreed that a neutral power like the Baratheons should reign. Tywin Lannister spoke "we will accept this, though we all know you need a wife, and who better than my daughter, Cersei". To keep the Lannisters satisfied, Robert agreed. Finalizing the formation of the kingdom, Mace Tyrell declared in council that the reach would "honour the crown, so long as the crown honours the realm".
Armies
One law was created where only major houses were allowed to have armies, and any organization that has an army that isn't legally allowed to have one, is declared an enemy of the crown. However, exceptions were made for the Mancasters, Hightowers and Boltons. These houses were relatively independent though too small to become a great house. Furthermore the Mancasters and Hightowers were linked through marriage making independence even more difficult. The Boltons did not become a great house because they were not particularly "special" in Roberts opinion, "merely being a large army for the Starks, not fit to be independent".

Territories
Crownlands
Formerly belonging to the Baratheons, the Crownlands are a neutral region in which the capital of the Kingdom, King's Landing, is located.
King's Landing
King's landing, formerly known as Stormhaven, is an old city which was chosen as capital due to its proximity to water and central position. Before it became the capital, the city was relatively small. After the kingdom was established, various national buildings were built within King's Landing. With those new buildings, new streets and new houses were created, increasing the size of the city drastically.
It is accustomed that the royal house has residences in King's Landing.
Stormlands
The Stormlands are a region belonging historically to the Baratheons. The region is named after the relatively harsh Autumn-Storms around the coast. The Capital of the Stormlands is Storm's End.
Westerlands
The Westerlands are a region belonging historically to the Lannisters. The region is in the west of Centros, hence its name. Several smaller houses also reside in the Westerlands, though all having sworn loyalty to the Lannisters. The second largest behind the Lannisters are the Mancasters.
Lannisport & Casterly Rock
Lannisport is the capital of the Westerlands and seat of House Lannister. However, though Lannisport is the official capital, a nearby castle, Casterly Rock, has grown immensely and is the location where most Lannisters grow up. Casterly Rock practically serves as the capital & seat of the Westerlands under House Lannister. Underneath Casterly Rock is a vast amount of gold mines, adding to the riches of House Lannister.
The Reach
The Reach is a region belonging historically to the Tyrells and is recourse-rich. Due to the large amount of resources, the Tyrells are one of the richest houses in Centros. Its capital is Highgarden, originally the seat of House Gardener until defeated by the Tyrells. When the Tyrells took Highgarden, it became their seat instead.
The reach is split in two seperate regions, the Meadowlands and the Sunfields. The Meadowlands refer to the Northern Reach whereas the Sunfields refer to the Southern Reach.
The Meadowlands
The Meadowlands are a recourse-rich region belonging to the Tyrells and the Jorgensens. The region is primarily filled with grassy plains with moderate temperatures. Most of the Meadowlands are controlled by the Tyrells, though the Jorgensens control the Eastern Meadowlands. In the Tyrell's Meadowlands, the capital is Highgarden, though in the Jorgensen's Meadowlands, its capital is Jorgensville.
The Jorgensens also control the large city Tuckingham, seat of House Tucking. Tuckingham has a the central Cathedral of Centros. Five elected cardinals have partial control of the city. One of the five cardinals is elected to be a "Kardinal". The Kardinal commands the other four cardinals.
The Sunfields
The Sunfields are a region belonging to the Tyrells, though mostly their vassal, the Hightowers, govern the region. The Sunfields are also recourse-rich, though the temperatures are higher. The Eastern Sunfields are often plagued by Dune Corsair-attacks.
Historically, the Gardeners have ruled the region. Though the Hightowers were initially a vassal to the Gardeners, in the war between the Tyrells and the Gardeners, the Hightowers sided with the Tyrells. When the Tyrells won this war, the Hightowers were greatly rewarded with control over the region as the largest vassal under the Tyrells, even being allowed a small army.
The Mountain Steppes
The Mountain Steppes are a region belonging historically to the Langtons. Its capital, Cavalton, is the seat of House Langton. Cavalton was named after the cavalry house Langton possessed, which was crucial for their trade, defenses and offense at the time.
