[Prior to the Conquer of the Empire]
King Aaron Caspien Nicholai-Decker [dead]
Queen Addison Lloyd [dead]
» Crown Prince Alexander [Caspien] Nicholai [Decker], firstborn and oldest
» 2nd Prince Aiden Caspien [Nicholai Decker], second son and oldest twin of Alisha
» 3rd Princess Alisha [Caspien Nicholai] Decker, third child, only daughter and youngest twin of Aiden
※※※※※※
[Alexander Nicholai], [Aiden Caspien], and [Alisha Decker] conquered twenty nine Kingdoms and build the Empire together with their childhood friend [Jalen Cain Larsson], who married [Alisha Decker] during the Conquer.
When it was time to appoint the Emperor, they wanted their older brother [Alexander Nicholai] to take over the throne, as he was the firstborn and the strongest, but he refused, as he never desired the responsibilities. So, when it came down to the twins, [Alisha Decker-Cain] stepped down and gave up her claim for her older twin and middle brother. Thus, [Aiden Caspien] became the Emperor, naming the Empire after the last name he took for himself, after him and his siblings picked one for each.
That was the birth of [Imperial House Caspien], [Grand Duchy Nicholai], and [Grand Duchy Cain]. As [Jalen Cain] had been one of conquerors with his wife, his family rose to grace, and as his sister [Felicity Cain Larsson], who also took part in the Conquer of the Empire, married [Adam Rosalyn], a Prince from the allied Rosalyn Kingdom, and founded [House Larsson] and [Grand Duchy Larsson].
To strengthen their alliances with the other Kingdoms of Harkheiz Continent such as [Rosalyn], [White-Wood], [Orion], and [Ludwick]; aside from the Grand Duchess [Felicity Larsson] marrying Prince [Adam Rosalyn], other unions and promised unions were made between the the neighboring Royal Houses with the Houses of the Caspien Empire.
All in order to maintain a safe alliance with the Caspien Empire.

I should have posted this sooner, but here it is.
I hope it will help you understand the houses of the Empire and their connections better!
If you want an overall of the two continents containing the two Empires, the eight Kingdoms, and the Archipelago K'hir's most important houses and people, I can do that as well. Just leave it a comment if you want it.
