Sapiryan symbol

The sigil of the Kingdom of Sapiro, believed to have been derived from an ancient beast called Sarangay who is also believed to be the first beings living in the land.

Sapiro is a fictional kingdom in the land of Encantadia, the fantasy world in which the Philippine television series of the same name is set. In the series, Sapiro is the land of the Sapiryans (english plural), a race of valiant and skilled warriors.

Sapiro is one of the four major territories that comprise Encantadia, the others being Lireo, Hathoria, and Adamya. Sapiro suffered massive losses during the massive invasion by the Kingdom of Hathoria and was left in ruins. The battle against the Hathor caused the deaths of King Armeo and his Queen Asnara, the presumed loss of the heir Prince Ybrahim, the exile and eventual of Armeo's cousin Prince Raquim, and the disappearance (later revealed to have actually been a case of desertion) of key military leaders like Asval. With their home destroyed and their leaders gone, the surviving Sapiryan troops have sworn fealty to the Queendom of Lireo, under the guidance of Alira Naswen, while others are probably living as nomads or have aligned themselves with the likes of Asval.

Culture[]

The kingdom follows a traditional Monarchy wherein the king is the supreme ruler of the kingdom followed by his queen and their children. It is unknown how the line of succession works when the king has no heir, whether it is the first born son will be its next ruler and if a woman can rule over the kingdom. Because Sapiro is a warrior society, they are skilled at creating tactics and strategizing than the army of Lireo. Sapiro is traditionally patriarchal, in contrast to Lireo, where only women are allowed to rule. Unlike the laws of Lireo that prohibit the Queen from marrying, the ruler of Sapiro is allowed to marry.

The Sapiryans are best known for their unmatched skills in macemanship and archery. As well as their ability to understand Pashnea(Encantadia term for animals) language. They are also proficient in hand-to-hand combat. They are brave and steadfast, making them great allies and dangerous enemies in battle.

They are famous for using staff and maces in battle.

History[]

IMG 1839

The newly built castle of Sapiro; during the time of its founding.

The Kingdom of Sapiro is situated to the north of the known world of Encantadia. It was founded by an Encantado named Hamir who was loved dearly by the Bathalumang Haliya. He used the diamonds and golds from Haliya's home (the moon) to establish the palace. He is presumably Sapiro's first King as he was addressed as Kamahalan.

Following the historical cleaving of the Inang Brilyante by the Diwata Cassiopea, the Sapiryans, under the rule of King Armeo, were entrusted with the keeping of the Brilyante ng Lupa, or the gem that has power over the Earth.

The land of Sapiro had been blessed with rich vegetation, and probably stone quarries that allowed the Sapiryans to construct their palace and settlements.

Apart from the Sapiryan warriors, Sapiro is also home to a small band of people who conduct raids on unsuspecting travelers, lead by a man named Apitong, among as other tribes.


Sapiro-Hathoria War[]

Sapiro4

The Sapiryan palace prior to the Hathor invasion.

In their quest for domination of the other territories, the Hathor attacked the Adamyan and acquired the Water gem, therefore gaining enough confidence to assault the Sapiryan next. Despite reinforcements from the Queendom of Lireo and precautions like evacuating the Queen and the infant Prince Ybrahim from the Sapiryan palace, the Hathor invasion still proved devastating. Despite their losses, the "last stand" of the Sapiryan forced the Hathor into retreat. The victory paved the way for the Fire and Water gems, and later the Earth gem as well, to be reclaimed from the Hathor and given to Queen Mine-a.

Following the war, the remaining forces were forced to abandon Sapiro and relocate to Lireo, under the leadership of Alira Naswen.

People[]

Sapiryans are known to be very resourceful especially when it comes to nature. According to the narration of the 2016 version of Encantadia. Sapiryans have the ability to trace the bountiful location of the earth's minerals. Although not all, a huge percent of Sapiro's inhabitants are also capable of talking to animals and other life forms. Lira, Alena and Danaya are the few half-blooded Sapiryans who appeared to have the ability of zoolinganism. Amihan, a halfblood and Ybarro(A Royal Blood Sapiryan) are not shown to have such ability.

Geography[]

Sapiro's landscape are very much similar to Lireo, it contains vast forest of different kinds, and many mountain ranges.

Politics[]

The Kingdom of Sapiro is ruled by a King. However, unlike Lireo, rulers of this kingdom are allowed to wed and have children, keeping them in the same roof. It is unclear if it is allowed for the Queen to rule to fulfill the King's absence.

It is also safe to assume that Sapiro is the richest kingdom in Encantadia in terms of monetary wealth.

Military[]

Sapiro is known to have at least more than one general or Mashna. Alira Naswen once introduced herself to Ybarro as one of the king's general/mashna. The royal army are also known to use maces and round hard shields in battle.

Tribes[]

Due to its vast territory, Sapiro holds a number of tribes, where some recognize the ruling monarch of Sapiro, while others does not, such as Punjabwes have their own prince or Rehav and the Barbaros.

Ascano - Located in the Northwestern part of Sapiro where the Barbaros and Gigantes(Barbarians and Giants) live.

Bandit Territory - Located in the North of Sapiro.

Punjabwe - Located in Southwestern part of Sapiro

Adjantao - Located in the Southeastern of Sapiro between Sapiro and Lireo where the mandirigma live.

Land of the Nymphs - Located in the South of Sapiro, between Hathoria and Adamya, now resides in the North of Sapiro at the behest of Hara Duri Cassiopea. Though, it is originally Adamyan territory.



Trivia[]

  • Both 2005 and 2016 version of Sapiro:
    • Both share the same theme for their castles, very much like a medieval castle surrounded by grasslands, and vines, with huge bricks of rock and towers. 
    • Both castle serves as the temporary stronghold and shelter of the Diwatas when the Hathorian Army successfully conquered Lireo.
  • The central tower of the fortress is called Dakilang Moog, or in English translation: The Great Tower, this is where the throne room and other notable areas of the castle fortress is located.
  • Sapiro is assumed to be the most wealthiest of all four kingdoms when it comes to monetary wealth, the castle fortress of Sapiro hides a secret vault that contains gold, gems and many other priceless artifacts that predates back the founder of Sapiro. The vault is only accessible to a certain few, specifically those of the Royal Family.
  • Sapiro's castle is also a strong fortress that is made of strong minerals and rocks. Despite years of abandonement and even when flora and fauna had took over the castle walls, it remains strong and impervious to crumble.
  • There were different versions of the castle that are shown in the 2016 series, a version where it is a fortress with small towers, surrounded by a forest while situated atop of a hill, whole the rest are with a high tower in between with grasslands surrounding the fortress.
