House of Vasconseilos

f

The House of Vasconseilos was a noble house founded in 1484 by the intermarriage of the House of Vedoys and wealthy burghers in Vallarsa. As the House of Vedoys began gaining renown in southern Montessano, an alliance with wealthy traders in Vallarsa suited both sides -- the Vedoys would be able to access an invaluable amount of wealth to fund their private enterprises and ultimate usurpation of the Montesi throne, and the various burghers of Sãssô would be able to increase their power and influence.

There were numerous attempts by the ruling House of Delannoy to prevent the establishment of a noble class by the burghers of Sãssô, who had begun threatening their rule since the beginning of colonization forty years prior.
