It goes back the the very early days, when Eddis, Attolia, and Sounis were actually one country. The warlord-like person (we'll call him Warlord 1) who ran the section that is now Attolia decided that he wanted a separate country. The leaders of the other two sections (Warlords 2 and 3, for convenience) did not want to separate. Warlord 1 insisted that he was breaking away. 2 and 3 insisted that no, he wasn't. He said the equivalent of "Wanna bet?" and there were great stratagems and battles. On the final field of battle, where Warlord 1 had triumphed decisively, he met with Warlords 2 and 3. "See?" said Warlord 1. "Attolia so. Now, are you two also going to break away?" "Oh, yeah," said Warlord 2. "Sounis I can get my army back together."
